Boundary activated hydrogen evolution reaction on monolayer MoS2

While water-splitting electrocatalysts enable energy storage in carbon-neutral fuels, a recent challenge has been the discovery and understanding of catalyst active sites. Here, authors find domain boundaries in MoS2 materials to present high-activity, stable, and scalable sites for H2 evolution.
