CeO x/ C supported PtCu thin film catalysts were prepared by ion beam sputtering (IBS) and subsequently annealed at 400°C under vacuum environment and electrochemically dealloyed. Scanning transmission electronic microscope (STEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM) characterizations show that the surface of post-processed catalyst presents nanoporous structure and has a high root mean square roughness (RMS = 13.9nm). Electrochemical measurements indicate that the post-processed PtCu – CeO x/ C catalyst shows higher catalytic activity towards hydrogen evolution reaction than pure Pt / C . While inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) analysis displays that the platinum ( Pt ) loading of the post-processed PtCu – CeO x/ C is 0.1192mg/cm2, decreasing by 20% compare to pure Pt / C (0.1490mg/cm2). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis confirms that the surface of post-processed PtCu – CeO x/ C enrich Pt and analyzes the chemical valence of Pt element using depth profiling technology. It can be inferred that the enhancement in catalytic property is attributed to the combined action between geometric structure effect and electronic modification effect of Pt atoms from CeO x support.

Complex Salts

Cobaloximes and their BF<sub>2</sub>-bridged analogues have emerged as promising non-noble metal catalysts for the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Herein we report the serendipitous discovery that double complex salts such as [Co(dmgh)<sub>2</sub>py<sub>2</sub>]<sup>+</sup>[Co(dmgBPh<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub>]<sup>-</sup> can be obtained in good yields by treatment of commercially available [Co(dmgh)<sub>2</sub>pyCl] with triarylboranes. A systematic study on the use of such double complex salts and their single salts with simple counterions as photocatalysts revealed HER activities comparable or superior to existing cobaloxime catalysts and suggests ample opportunities for this compound class in catalyst/photosensitizer dyads and immobilized architectures. Preliminary electrochemical and spectroscopic studies indicate that one key advantage of these charged cobalt complexes is that the reduction potentials as well as the electrostatic interaction with charged photosensitizers can be tuned.

Finding a low-cost and stable electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) as a replacement for scarce and expensive precious metal catalysts has attracted significant interest from chemical and materials research communities. Here, we demonstrate an organic catalyst based on 2,2’-dipyridylamine (dpa) molecules adsorbed on carbon surface, which shows remarkable hydrogen evolution activity and performance durability in strongly acidic polymer electrolytes without involving any metal. The HER onset potential at dpa adsorbed on carbon has been found to be less than 50 mV in sulfuric acid and in a Nafion-based membrane electrode assembly (MEA). At the same time, this catalyst has shown no performance loss in a 60-hour durability test. The HER reaction mechanisms and the low onset overpotential in this system are revealed based on electrochemical study. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggest that the pyridyl-N functions as the active site for H adsorption with a free energy of -0.13 eV, in agreement with the unusually low onset overpotential for an organic molecular catalyst.<br>
