Amorphization-enabled decoupling of hydrogen and hydroxide binding on RuSi for efficient alkaline hydrogen evolution
Catalyst optimization for the alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is fundamentally constrained by scaling relations between hydrogen binding energy (HBE) and hydroxide binding energy (OHBE), yet rational design strategies capable of synergistically optimizing both descriptors have remained experimentally elusive...
