Nb2Se2C: a new compound as a combination of transition metal dichalcogenide and MXene for oxygen evolution reaction

Transition metal dichalcogenides and carbonitrides (TMDs and MXenes) have attracted great attention in electrochemistry due to their tunable electronic structures. Herein, a new compound of Nb2Se2C is designed as a “TMD–MXene”-like material. It exhibits better oxygen evolution reaction performance than most other reported TMDs, MXenes, and commercial electrocatalysts due to the enriched active sites and excellent conductivity.
