Sulfur promotes hydrogen evolution on molybdenum carbide catalysts

Abstract

We report that sulfur-doping of molybdenum carbide catalysts produces a good hydrogen evolution electrocatalyst. The doped sulfur atoms weaken the hydrogen bonding energy, enhancing the catalyst's activity in hydrogen evolution.
