Rongzhi Wang, Jin‐Cheng Zheng
Abstract
∼ 0.055 eV) for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and promising overpotential (0.455 V) for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). This study provides some critical insights into the catalytic activity of borophene for water splitting by selecting suitable decorated metal.
