First-Principles Calculations and Machine Learning of Hydrogen Evolution Reaction Activity of Nonmetallic Doped β-Mo2C Support Pt Single-Atom Catalysts

The most widely used catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is Pt, but the high cost and low abundance of Pt need to be urgently addressed. Single-atom catalysts (SACs) have been an effective means of improving the utilization of Pt atoms. In this work, we used a nonmetal (NM = B, N, O, F, Si, P, S, Cl, As, Se, Br, Te, and I) doped β-Mo
