摘要：The investigation and development of bimetallic phosphosulphide electrocatalyst with low cost and abundant reserves is extremely significant for the improvement of the efficiency of hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), while it remains a challenge. Herein, we explored a feasible method to prepare three-dimensional (3D) self-supported FeNiP-S/NF-5 nanosheet arrays on Ni foil (NF) by hydrothermal method and in situ phosphorization and following sulfurization treatment. The as-obtained FeNiP-S/NF-5 only needs a potential of 183 mV vs. RHE to reach 20 mA cm(-2), which is smaller than that of FeNiP/NF (187 mV vs. RHE) and FeNiS/NF-5 (239 mV vs. RHE), presenting excellent electrocatalytic stability. Such outstanding performance of the FeNiP-S/NF-5 can be attributed to following several rea-sons: (i) bi-metallic phosphide and sulphide have the high intrinsic activity because of its synergistic effect; (ii) the 3D nanosheet arrays structure of FeNiP-S/NF-5 is conducive to expose plentiful active sites and facilitate the electrolyte penetration along with electron transportation; (iii) the sulfurization process followed phosphorization treatment could further optimize their electronic structure and inhibited the surface oxidation of catalyst in the catalytic process.
