Rational designing and fabricating catalysts with abundant exposed active sites and optimized electronic structure is of essential to boost electrocatalytic performance. In this study, well-organized porous nanosheets of sulfur-doped molybdenum-based compounds on carbon cloth (S-MoXn/CC, S-MoXn= S-MoP, S-Mo2C, S-MoN, and S-MoO3) are universally constructed via in situ topological transformation from the MoS2nanosheets as self-supported electrodes for pH-universal hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Various structural characterizations show that the S-MoXnnanosheets with abundant nanopores and edges endowing them with plentiful exposed active sites, high mass transfer efficiency, and good conductivity. As a result, these S-MoXn/CC electrodes, especially S-MoP/CC exhibits superior HER performance with low overpotentials of 75, 75, and 127 mV at 10 mA cm−1in acidic, alkaline, and neutral electrolytes, superior to the MoXn/CC counterparts. Theoretical calculations reveal that the synergy between S dopant and MoXncan effectively alter the electronic structure of S-MoXn, thus enhancing the HER performance.
