Self-anchored nickel cocatalyst on nitrogen-doped carbon dots for enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution
Self-anchored nickel on nitrogen-doped carbon dots as an efficient co-catalyst achieved an impressive HER activity and durability. Mechanistic studies revealed that the NiC co-catalyst optimized photoabsorption, charge transport dynamics, and surface reactions and reduced the HER overpotential.
