摘要：

The development of highly active and durable inexpensive electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is still a formidable challenge. Herein, an ordered hexagonal-closed-packed (hcp)-Ru nanocrystal coated with a thin layer of N-doped carbon (hcp-Ru@NC) was fabricated through the thermal annealing of polydopamine (PDA)-coated Ru nanoparticle (RuNP@PDA). As an alternative to Pt/C catalyst, the hcp-Ru@NC nanocatalyst exhibited the small over potential of 27.5 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm(-2), as well as long-term stability for HER in acid media. Interestingly, the HER performance of hcp-Ru is highly dependent on its crystallinity. The calculation from density functional theory (DFT) revealed that the difference in HER activity over various exposed surface causes the crystallinity-dependent property of hcp-Ru. The results provided clues to guide the design of Ru-based inexpensive HER electrocatalyst.
