Abstract:
As the key half reaction of water-splitting electrolysis, the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) that occurs at the cathode directly determines the overall efficiency of hydrogen production. To improve the efficiency of electrochemical water splitting for hydrogen generation, efficient and robust catalysts need to be developed. Strain engineering, which represents an effective and promising category of strategies, can regulate the electronic structures of catalysts by modulating the lattice strain and ultimately optimizing the HER dynamics. This work critically reviews the recent progress of strain engineering in HER and provides future perspectives for this area. The methods and characterization techniques are also introduced in detail. Hopefully this review can provide guidelines for the design and manufacturing of advanced catalysts for HER and other heterogeneous catalysis reactions such as chemical sensing, CO 2 reduction and NH 3 synthesis.
