Computational high-throughput screening of alloy nanoclusters for electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution

Abstract Here, we report a density functional theory (DFT)-based high-throughput screening method to successfully identify a type of alloy nanoclusters as the electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Totally 7924 candidates of Cu-based alloy clusters of Cu55-n M n (M = Co, Ni, Ru, and...
