Abstract
Water splitting driven by renewable energy sources is an environmentally friendly and sustainable way to produce hydrogen as an ideal energy source in the future. Electrocatalysts can promote the water splitting performance at the both ends. Therefore, the design of cost-effective, high-performance electrocatalysis is a key factor in promoting water decomposition and renewable energy conversion. Among candidates, layered molybdenum disulfide (MoS2 ) is considered as a most promising electrocatalyst to replace Pt for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Surface atomic engineering and interface engineering can induce new physicochemical properties for MoS2 to greatly enhance HER activity. In this report, we summarize the latest improvement strategies and research progress to improve the catalytic activity of MoS2 -based material catalysts through the surface and interface atomic and molecular engineering, thus effectively improving HER process. In addition, some unsolved problems in the large-scale application of modified MoS2 catalyst are also discussed.
