Identification of active edge sites for electrochemical H2 evolution from MoS2 nanocatalysts.
Thomas F. Jaramillo,Kristina Pilt Jørgensen,Jacob Lindner Bonde,Jane Hvolbæk Nielsen,Sebastian Horch,Ib Chorkendorff +5 more
TL;DR: The active site for hydrogen evolution, a reaction catalyzed by precious metals, on nanoparticulate molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is determined by atomically resolving the surface of this catalyst before measuring electrochemical activity in solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design of electrocatalysts for oxygen- and hydrogen-involving energy conversion reactions
TL;DR: The emphasis of this review is on the origin of the electrocatalytic activity of nanostructured catalysts toward a series of key clean energy conversion reactions by correlating the apparent electrode performance with their intrinsic electrochemical properties.

Biomimetic Hydrogen Evolution: MoS2 Nanoparticles as Catalyst for Hydrogen Evolution
Berit Hinnemann,Poul Georg Moses,Jacob Lindner Bonde,Kristina Pilt Jørgensen,Jane Hvolbæk Nielsen,Sebastian Horch,Ib Chorkendorff,Jens K. Nørskov +7 more
TL;DR: The ability of different metal surfaces and of the enzymes nitrogenase and hydrogenase to catalyze the hydrogen evolution reaction is analyzed and a necessary criterion for high catalytic activity is found: that the binding free energy of atomic hydrogen to the catalyst is close to zero.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computational high-throughput screening of electrocatalytic materials for hydrogen evolution
TL;DR: A density functional theory-based, high-throughput screening scheme that successfully uses these strategies to identify a new electrocatalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), which is found to have a predicted activity comparable to, or even better than, pure Pt, the archetypical HER catalyst.
