[Display omitted] Electrocatalysts for water splitting have been widely explored among recent years. In this study, nickel–selenium–copper (Ni–Se–Cu) coating was synthesized on nickel foam through potentiostatic electrodeposition. The electrochemical kinetics and nucleation mechanisms of the deposit...
