Abstract

S-rich MoS2-NCNF hybrid nanomaterials exhibiting extraordinary HER activity, with a very low onset potential of 30 mV and a small Tafel slope of 38 mV per decade, were successfully fabricated by combining N-doped carbon nanofibers and single-layered MoS2 nanostructures with abundant edge active sites.
