Hydrogen adsorption trends on Al-doped Ni2P surfaces for optimal catalyst design

Nanoparticles of nickel phosphide are promising materials to replace the currently used rare Pt-group metals at cathode-side electrodes in devices for electrochemical hydrogen production. Chemical modification by doping can be used to fine-tune the electrocatalytic activity, but this path requires theoretical, atomic-level support which has not been widely available for Ni–P. We present a density functional theory analysis of Al-doped Ni2P surfaces to identify structural motifs that could contribute to the improved behavior of the catalyst. Based on the formation energies of substitutionally Al-doped Ni sublattices, we find doping to take place preferably at the topmost layers. The Ni–Ni bridge and the P-top sites are the optimal ones in terms of hydrogen bonding energies. The Ni–Ni bridge site is not present on pristine surfaces but is a consequence of Al doping and provides a candidate to explain the experimentally observed high activities in doped Ni–P nanoparticles. Similar structural motifs can be recommended to be engineered for other Ni–P structures for improved electrocatalytic activity.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
