Defect-rich FeCoNiMnRu high-entropy alloys with activated interfacial water for boosting alkaline water/seawater hydrogen evolution: 点击次数：; 关键字：TOTAL-ENERGY CALCULATIONS; DYNAMICS; 摘要：Water molecules are the most important participant in hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) under alkaline water/ seawater conditions, while effectively activating the rigid interfacial water and promoting the HER kinetics remain a great challenge. Herein, we construct a defect-rich FeCoNiMnRu high-entropy alloy (HEA) by rapid Joule-heating approach, which could significantly reform the structure and dynamics of interfacial water and consequently boost the HER activity. In-situ Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra and ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) calculations confirm that the constructed FeCoNiMnRu HEA endows a fast conversion of interfacial water from strong H-bonded water to free water, which increases the availability and activity of H2O* at the active sites, and thereby facilitating the HER process. Consequently, the developed defect-rich FeCoNiMnRu HEA exhibits excellent activity with overpotentials of only 37 and 35 mV at 10 mA cm-2 in alkaline water and seawater electrolytes, respectively, which are surpassing that of commercial Pt/C. This work discloses the behavior and structure of interfacial water on HEA and provides new insights into the design of advanced HEA-based catalysts towards HER.; 卷号：509; 期号：; 是否译文：否
