Abstrakt: Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have garnered significant attention as efficient electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) due to their high activity, stability, and cost-effectiveness. However, the development of a convenient and economical approach for large-scale HER applications remains a persistent challenge. In this study, we present the successful synthesis of TMD nanoparticles (including MoS 2 , RuS 2 , ReS 2 , MoSe 2 , RuSe 2 , and ReSe 2 ) using a general colloidal method at room temperature. Notably, the ReSe 2 nanoparticles synthesized in this study exhibit superior HER performance compared with previously reported nanostructured TMDs. Importantly, the synthesis of these TMD nanoparticles can readily be scaled up to gram quantities while preserving their exceptional HER performance. These findings highlight the potential of colloidal synthesis as a versatile and scalable approach for producing TMD nanomaterials with outstanding electrocatalytic properties for water splitting.
