Abstract: Electrocatalysis plays a key role in energy conversion processes (such as hydrogen evolution reaction-HER) to several renewable energy technologies developed to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. It is of great importance to design and develop robust electrocatalysts, for hydrogen production from water electrolysis, composed exclusively of low cost, non-precious elements that exhibit activity and stability comparable to those of the noble metals.
