Atom Absorption

Pt nano-particles are supported on carbon materials at the electrode catalysts of protonexchange menbrane fuel cells. Pt nano-particles are desirable to be strongly adsorbed on carbon materials for high dispersion, although strong Pt-C interactions may affect the catalytic activity of small clusters. Thus we have examined H-atom absorption on Pt clusters supported or unsupported on graphene sheets, using first-principles calculations. For Pt-atom/graphene systems, a H atom is more weakly adsorbed than for a free Pt atom, and the H-Pt interaction becomes weaker if the interaction between a Pt atom and graphene becomes stronger. For the Ptn-cluster/graphene systems (n=2-4), the H-Pt interactions are also substantially changed from those for free Pt clusters. In the Pt clusters on graphene, the Pt-Pt distances are substantially changed associated with the electronicstructure changes by the Pt-C interactions. These structural and electronic changes in the Pt clusters as well as the presence of graphene itself seem to cause the changes in the absorption energies and preferential sites of H-atom absorption.

This work presents a first-principles molecular dynamics study of hydrogen storage in Li doped single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). The decomposition and adsorption between Li atom and H2 molecular are studied by bonds analysis and energy evolvement of interaction process. The modify effects of Li doped SWCNTs are studied by band structure and of states density analysis, as well as the structure transformation of SWCNTs. The enhanced hydrogen storage in Li doped SWCNTs at room temperature and common pressure is studied by first principles molecular dynamics simulation. The relationship between dope position of Li atoms and hydrogen storage also studied, and finally confirm the best dope position and provide a reference for the further research of alkali metals doped CNT.

To investigate Mo doping effects on the hydrogen permeation performance of Nb membranes, we study the most likely process of atomic hydrogen adsorption and diffusion on/into Mo-doped Nb (100) surface/subsurface (in the Nb12Mo4 case) via first-principles calculations. Our results reveal that the (100) surface is the most stable Mo-doped Nb surface with the smallest surface energy (2.75 J/m2). Hollow sites (HSs) in the Mo-doped Nb (100) surface are H-adsorption-favorable mainly due to their large adsorption energy (−4.27 eV), and the H-diffusion path should preferentially be HS→TIS (tetrahedral interstitial site) over HS→OIS (octahedral interstitial site) because of the correspondingly lower H-diffusion energy barrier. With respect to a pure Nb (100) surface, the Mo-doped Nb (100) surface has a smaller energy barrier along the HS→TIS pathway (0.31 eV).

Catalyst Synthesis

Much research has been done on reliable and low-cost electrocatalysts for hydrogen generation by water splitting. In this study, we synthesized thin films of silver selenide (Ag2Se) using a simple thermal evaporation route and demonstrated their electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity. The Ag2Se catalysts show improved electrochemical surface area and good HER electrocatalytic behavior (367 mV overpotential @ 10 mA·cm−2, exchange current density: ~1.02 × 10−3 mA·cm−2, and Tafel slope: 53 mV·dec−1) in an acidic medium). The reliability was checked in 0.5 M sulfuric acid over 20 h. Our first-principles calculations show the optimal energy of hydrogen adsorption, which is consistent with experimental results. The works could be further extended for finding a new catalyst by associating the selenide, sulfide or telluride-based materials without complex catalyst synthesis procedures.
