Single-atom catalysts (SACs) can achieve excellent catalytic efficiency at ultralow catalyst consumptions. Herein, platinum (Pt) atoms are fixed on the wall of atomic layer deposition (ALD)-made molybdenum disulfide nanotube arrays (MoS -NTA) for efficient hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). More concretely, MoS -NTA with different nanotube diameters and wall thicknesses are fabricated by a sacrificial strategy of anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template via ALD; then Pt atoms are fixed on the wall of Ti C -supported MoS -NTA as a catalytic system.

Nevertheless, the rapid recombination of electron-hole pairs and poor electronic transmission capacity of pure ReS limit its wider applications. As a new attempt to optimize its inherent structure and challenge its competency boundary, in this work, a bimetallic co-chamber feeding atomic layer deposition with a precise dose regulation strategy has been used to fabricate ReS nanotubes (ReS-NTs) and MoS-ReS heterojunction nanotubes (MoS-ReS-HNTs) based on the anodic aluminum oxide template sacrifice method for the first time.
