Facile fabrication of boron-doped titanium carbide for efficient electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction

Abstract

Boron-doped titanium carbide is a promising strategy for optimizing electrochemical performance for NRR. The Ti 3 C 2 -B exhibited an NH 3 yield of 39.64 μg h −1 mg −1 at −0.55 V and a FE of 11.89% at −0.45 V. DFT suggested that B doping of Ti 3 C 2 reduced the free energy obstacle.
