Abstract

We report the synthesis of ultrathin S-doped MoSe₂ nanosheets demonstrating enhanced HER catalysis with a low onset overpotential of 90 mV and a Tafel slope of 58 mV per decade. We attribute the improved catalytic effects to the proliferation of unsaturated HER active sites in MoSe₂ resulting from S-doping.
