ABSTRACT
Hydrogen production from water splitting combined with renewable electricity can provide a viable solution to the energy crisis. A novel MoS2/NiS2/Ni3S4 heterostructure is designed as a bifunctional electrocatalyst by facile hydrothermal method to demonstrate excellent electrocatalytic performance towards overall water splitting applications. MoS2/NiS2/Ni3S4 heterostructure necessitates a low overpotential of 81 mV and 210 mV to attain a current density of 10 mA cm-2 during the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER), respectively. Consequently, the MoS2/NiS2/Ni3S4 heterostructure-based electrolyzer shows a low cell voltage of 1.54 V at 10 mA cm-2. The present work highlights the significance of the heterostructure configuration of transition metal sulfide-based electrocatalysts for electrochemical overall water splitting applications.
