Abstract
Efficient and cost-effective catalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) are essential for large-scale hydrogen production, which is a critical step toward reducing carbon emissions and advancing the global transition to sustainable energy. Nickel sulfide-based catalysts, which exist in various stoichiometries, show promise for HER in alkaline media. However, as single-phase materials, they do not demonstrate superior activity compared to Pt-based catalysts. This review highlights recent strategies to enhance the HER performance of nickel sulfides, including heteroatom doping, heterostructure construction, and vacancy engineering, tailored to their different stoichiometric ratios. The study also examines synthesis methods, characterizations, and their impact on HER performance. Furthermore, it discusses the challenges and limitations of current research and suggests future directions for improvement.
