Artificial Modulation of the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction Kinetics via Control of Grain Boundaries Density in Mo2C Through Laser Processing (Adv. Funct. Mater. 28/2025)
This conceptual illustration depicts how laser energy precisely controls the nucleation and growth of crystalline structures in a two-dimensional nanomaterial. Disordered atoms are guided into ordered patterns, forming grain boundary-rich structures that enhance catalytic performance. This laser-induced structural engineering enables more efficient hydrogen production, offering a visually intuitive insight into a complex and impactful materials science advancement. More information can be found in article number 2422918 by Jae-Hyun Lee, Sukang Bae, Seoung-Ki Lee, and co-workers.
