Abstract:
Non‐precious‐metal (NPM) catalysts often face the formidable challenge of a trade‐off between long‐term stability and high activity, which has not yet been widely addressed. Herein we propose a distinct molecule‐selective fence as a promising concept to solve this activity‐stability trade‐off. The fence encloses the catalyst and prevents species poisonous to the catalyst from reaching it, but allows catalytic reaction‐related species to diffuse freely. We constructed a CoS 2 fence layer on the external surface of highly active cobalt‐doped MoS 2 , achieving a remarkable catalytic stability towards the alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction and improved activity. In situ spectroscopy uncovered the underlying molecular mechanism of the CoS 2 fence for breaking the activity‐stability trade‐off of the MoS 2 catalyst. This work offers valuable guidance for rationally designing efficient and stable NPM catalysts.
