摘要
Molybdenum-based materials (MoB and MoO2) have been experimentally reported to exhibit outstanding electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity. It is interesting to further explore the impact of introducing O atoms into MoB on its HER activity. Herein, the HER catalytic performances of the pristine MoB and O-doped MoB with different O concentrations in acidic and alkaline media were investigated by firstprinciples calculations. It was found that MoB-O0.5, MoB-O0.625 and MoB-O0.75 show excellent HER activities, even surpassing the performance of Pt (111). Moreover, the introduction of one O atom into MoB surface (MoB-O0.125) can facilitate H2O dissociation by the formation of hydrogen bond and further improve the HER performance in alkaline medium. Our findings offer the new perspectives into the design of MoB-based efficient HER catalysts.
