Exploring earth-abundant and noble metal-free catalysts for water electrolysis is pivotal in renewable hydrogen production. Herein, a highly active electrocatalyst of nitrogen-doped porous carbon nanosheets coupled with Mo<sub>2</sub>C nanoparticles (Mo<sub>2</sub>C/NPC) was synthesized by a novel method with high BET surface area of 1380 m<sup>2</sup> g<sup>-1</sup> using KOH to activate carbon composite materials. The KOH plays a key role in etching out MoS<sub>2</sub> to produce Mo precursor; ...[more]
