TL;DR: A two-dimensional coupled hybrid of molybdenum carbide and reduced graphene oxide with a ternary polyoxometalate-polypyrrole/reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite as a precursor exhibits outstanding electrocatalytic activity for the hydrogen evolution reaction and excellent stability in acidic media, which is the best among these reported non-noble-metal catalysts.

TL;DR: The pomegranate-like N,P-doped Mo2C@C nanospheres exhibit extraordinary electrocatalytic activity for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in terms of an extremely low overpotential of 47 mV at 10 mA cm(-2) in 1 M KOH, which is one of the best Mo-based HER catalysts.

TL;DR: It is discovered that the self-templated conversion of NiMoO4 into MoNi4 nanocrystals and MoO3-x as dual active components dramatically boosts the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance.

TL;DR: A novel nitrogen-doped Fe/Fe3C@graphitic layer/carbon nanotube hybrid derived from MOFs has been first fabricated by a facile approach and exhibited outstanding bifunctional electrocatalytic activity for ORR and OER.

TL;DR: Ultra-uniform SnOx/carbon nanohybrids for lithium-ion batteries are successfully prepared by solvent replacement and subsequent electrospinning that enhances the transport of both electrons and ions for the embedded SnOx, thus leading to high cycling performance and rate capability.
