Water electrolysis has been proven as an effective means to produce clean hydrogen energy, and such a process can be accelerated by active bifunctional electrocatalysts for both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, we adopted a laser ablation technique to pr...
