Sustainable and cost-efficient hydrogen production using platinum clusters at minimal loading by Hongliang Zeng, Zheng Chen, Qiu Jiang, Qingtian Zhong, Yuan Ji, Yizhen Chen, Jiawei Li, Chunxiao Liu, Runhao Zhang, Jialin Tang, Xiaoxia Xiong, Zhongyue Zhang, Zhaoyang Chen, Yizhou Dai, Chengbo Li, Yinfang Chen, Donghao Zhao, Xu Li, Tingting Zheng, Xin Xu, Chuan Xia

“…We herein present a Mo2TiC2 MXene-supported Pt nanocluster catalyst (Mo2TiC2-PtNC) that requires a minimal Pt content (36 μg cm−2) to function, yet remains highly active and stable. Operando spectroscopy and theoretical simulation provide evidence for anomalous charge transfer from the MXene substrate to PtNC, thus generating highly efficient electron-rich Pt sites for robust hydrogen evolution. …”
