Congrats Saurav Ch Sarma and other co-authors for the work, where we have investigated that changing the active centre from Pd to Se gave higher stability towards Hydrogen Evolution Reaction
Check out for the more details
Reversing the Activity Center in Doped Pd17Se15 to Achieve High Stability Toward the Electrochemical Hydrogen Evolution Reaction The use of hydrogen, being an environmentally cleaner source of energy, may reduce the pressing problem of CO2 emissions due to the burning of conventional fossil fuels. However, the prolonged production of hydrogen is a major issue and can be solved through designing a stable electrocatalyst. In th...
