“…[5,6] Generally, noble metal-based catalysts (e. g., platinum and iridium oxide) are considered as the most effective catalysts to reduce the potential between OER and HER, [7][8][9] where however their high-cost and scarcity hinder the industrial application. [10,11] Because of these, increasing research efforts have been devoted to the design and construction of the earth-abundant transition metal-based catalysts, such as oxides, [12][13][14][15] (oxy)hydroxides, [3,16,17] sulfides, [18][19][20] phosphides, [21][22][23] and nitrides, [24,25] etc. However, most HER electrocatalysts are generally less active in alkaline condition due to the high energy barrier of the additional water dissociation process.…”
