Nickel sulfide nanoworm (NiS NW) network architecture was directly grown on the poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-reduced graphene oxide hybrid films (PEDOT-rGO HFs) modified on glassy carbon electrode (GCE), acting as a binder-free sensor for high-performance non-enzymatic glucose monitoring. The sensor exhibited the satisfactory sensitivity (2123 μA mM cm), wide linear range (15~9105 μM), low detection limit (0.48 μM), and rapid response time (< 1.5 s) at a potential of 0.5 V (vs. SCE) in 0.1 M NaOH and possessed good selectivity, reproducibility, and stability. The enhanced electrocatalytic activity of the sensor towards glucose oxidation was attributed to the particular morphology, satisfying hydrophilic nature, strong combination between NiS NWs, PEDOT-rGO, and bare GCE. Moreover, it can be used for assaying glucose in human serum samples without dilution, indicating potential for clinical diagnostic applications. Graphical abstract Nickel sulfide nanoworms (NiS NWs)/poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-reduced graphene oxide hybrid films (PEDOT-rGO HFs) were used to construct a binder-free high-performance non-enzymatic glucose sensor with satisfactory sensitivity, wide linear range, low detection limit, good selectivity, amazing reproducibility, and stability.

It is of great significance for the development of hydrogen energy technology by exploring the new-type and high-efficiency electrocatalysts (such as single atom catalysts (SACs)) for water splitting. In this paper, by combining interface engineering and doping engineering, a unique single atom iron (Fe)-doped carbon-coated nickel sulfide (NiS) quantum wires (NiS@Fe-SACs) is prepared as a high-performance bi-functional electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Theoretical calculation and experimental results show that the addition of atomic Fe species can effectively adjust the electronic structure of sulfide, the interfacial electron transfer modulates the d-band center position, optimizing the transient state of the catalytic process and adsorption energy of hydrogen/oxygen intermediates, and greatly accelerates the kinetics of HER and OER.

A promising approach to energy-efficient hydrogen production is coupling the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) with the urea oxidation reaction (UOR), significantly reducing the energy requirements. However, achieving a low-cost yet high-performance electrocatalyst for both HER and UOR remains challenging. Here, we present a facile method for synthesizing nanoporous nickel sulfide (NiS) and nickel hexacyanoferrate (NiHCF) nanocubes directly on nickel foam (NF) without any added nickel source using a cyclic voltammetry technique.

During electrocatalytic water splitting, surface reconstruction often occurs to generate truly active species for catalytic reactions, but the stability and mass activity of the catalysts is a huge challenge. A method that combines cation doping with morphology control strategies and constructs an amorphous-crystalline heterostructure is proposed to achieve deep reconstruction of the catalyst during the electrochemical activation process, thereby significantly improving catalytic activity and stability. Amorphous iron borate (FeBO) is deposited on cobalt-doped nickel sulfide (Co-NiS) crystals to form ultrathin nanosheet heterostructures (FeBO/Co-NiS) as bifunctional electrocatalysts for the OER and methanol oxidation reaction (MOR).

Designing highly active and stable bifunctional catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) under alkaline conditions is crucial for sustainable overall water splitting. Herein, we present a targeted reconstruction of NiS by introducing tantalum, achieving remarkable overall water splitting performance through the separate activation of the lattice oxygen mechanism and hydrogen spillover. Electrochemical Mass Spectrometry and in-situ Raman spectroscopy reveal that tantalum induces NiS to reconstruct into nickel hydroxide during OER, thereby enhancing catalytic activity via the activation of the lattice oxygen mechanism.
