Theoretical study of electrocatalytic properties of low-dimensional freestanding PbTiO3 for hydrogen evolution reactions

The discovery of novel materials for catalytic purposes that are highly stable is one of the main challenges nowadays for reducing our dependence on fossil fuels. Here, low-dimensional PbTiO<sub>3</sub> is introduced as an electrocatalyst using first-principles calculations. Density-func...
