The synthesis of low cost, high efficacy, and durable hydrogen evolution electrocatalysts from the non-noble metal group is a major challenge. Herein, we establish a simple and inexpensive chemical reduction method for producing molybdenum carbide (Mo<sub>2</sub>C) and tungsten carbide (W<sub>2</sub>C) nanoparticles that are efficient electrocatalysts in alkali and acid electrolytes for hydrogen evolution reactions (HER). Mo<sub>2</sub>C exhibits outstanding electrocatalytic behavior with an ove ...[more]
