Developing efficient bifunctional electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) under alkaline conditions is prospective for reducing energy consumption during water electrolysis. In this work, we successfully synthesized nanocluster structure com...
