When using water splitting to achieve sustainable hydrogen production, low-cost, stable, and naturally abundant electrocatalysts are required to replace Pt-based ones for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Herein, for the first time, a novel nanostructure with one-dimensional (1D) MoS2/Ni3S2 nan...
