Nitrogen and sulfur dual-doped Mo2C nanosheets provide low operating potential (−86 mV for driving 10 mA cm−2 of current density). Co-doping of N and S heteroatoms can improve the wetting property of the Mo2C electrocatalyst in aqueous solution and induce synergistic effects via σ-donation and π-back donation with hydronium cation.
