摘要
Pristine Ru generally shows unsatisfying activity for the electro-catalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). How to activate its HER activitythrough facile methodologies is very challenging. Recently, metal-supportedelectrocatalysts integrating metals with efficient hydrogen adsorption and supportswith facile hydrogen desorption delivered a high HER performance through ametal-to-support hydrogen spillover process, where the small metal-support workfunction difference (Delta Phi) was identified as the criterion for the successful interfacialhydrogen spillover. Herein, we demonstrate that a hydrogen spillover strategy significantly boosts the HER activity of Ru bydepositing a Ru1Fe1alloy on CoP (Ru1Fe1/CoP) with a small Delta Phi of 0.05 eV. Experimentally, Ru1Fe1/CoP (0.7 wt % Ruloading) delivered a high Ru utilization activity of 139.8 A/mgRuand a long-term durability in acid. Mechanism investigationsauthenticated that the small Delta Phi guaranteed the interfacial hydrogen spillover from Ru1Fe1with efficient hydrogen adsorptionto CoP with facile hydrogen desorption and thereafter boosted the HER activity of Ru.
