Nanocrystalline transition metal tetraborides as efficient electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction at the large current density

While great efforts have been made to improve the electrocatalytic activity of existing materials toward hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), it is also importance for searching new type of nonprecious HER catalysts to realize the practical hydrogen evolution. Herein, we firstly report nanocrystalline transition metal tetraborides (TMB
