Abstract:
Hydrogen (H2) is a promising energy carrier due to its high gravimetric energy density and environmental friendliness. Among different approaches of H2 production, hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) via electrochemical water splitting has attracted significant research interests when electricity can be supplied by sustainable energy sources, such as solar, wind, and tidal energy. Electrocatalysts play a crucial role in accelerating HER's kinetics. Platinum (Pt)-based electrocatalysts have excellent catalytic activities for HER due to their optimal adsorption/desorption energy for hydrogen and h

Abstract:
Increasing energy demand and environmental awareness have promoted the development of efficient and environment-friendly hydrogen technologies. Water electrolysis (2𝐻2𝑂→2𝐻2+𝑂2) is a promising way to store renewable electricity generated by solar or wind energy into chemical fuel in the form of H2. Water electrolysis is comprised of a hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) on the cathode and an oxygen evolution reaction (OER) on the anode. For both HER and OER, highly catalytic active electrocatalysts are required to lower the overpotentials and to speed up the sluggish kinetics. To date, noble meta

Abstract:
Research on new, environment-friendly, clean and efficient energy sources have contributed immensely to the development of new technologies for the generation and storage of electrical energy. Heterogeneous ‘electrocatalysis’ involves catalysis of redox reactions where the electrode material, termed as ‘electrocatalyst’ reduces the overpotential and maximizes the current for the processes occurring at the electrode/electrolyte interface. Efficient catalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) are of paramount importance fo

Abstract:
In recent years, there has been an increasing interest on renewable energy sources as substitute to fossil fuels. Among various processes of energy generation, electrochemical methods such as storage and conversion systems, electrolysis of water (production of H2 and O2), fuel cells, batteries, supercapacitors and solar cells have received great attention. The core of these energy technologies is a series of electrochemical processes, which directly depend on the nature of ‘electro catalyst’. The design and preparation of an electro catalyst is based on new concepts such as controlled surface

Abstract:
The ever increasing demand for energy due to over consumption of non-renewable fossil fuels has emphasized the need for alternate, sustainable and efficient energy conversion and storage systems. In this direction, electrochemical energy conversion and storage systems involving various fundamental electrochemical redox processes such as hydrogen evolution (HER), oxygen reduction (ORR), oxygen evolution (OER), hydrogen oxidation (HOR) reactions and others become highly important. Electrocatalysts are often used to accelerate the kinetics of these reactions. Platinum (Pt), ruthenium oxide and ir
