Tailoring the electrochemical hydrogen evolution activity of Cu3P through oxophilic surface modification

The hydrogen evolution reaction in alkaline medium can be promoted by the modification of platinum group metal with oxophilic metals. Herein, an earth abundant metal was first converted to copper phosphide Cu3P and the latter was electrochemically activated by a short and simple procedure to yield a...
