Abstract

Electrodes are provided comprising a FeSelectrocatalytic material, the FeSelectrocatalytic material comprising FeSnanostructures in the form of FeSwires, FeSdiscs, or both, wherein the FeSwires and the FeSdiscs are hyperthin having a thickness in the range of from about the thickness of a monolayer of FeSmolecules to about 20 nm. The FeSnanostructures may be polycrystalline comprising a non-pyrite majority crystalline phase. The FeSnanostructures may be in the form of FeSdiscs wherein substantially all the FeSdiscs have at least partially curved edges.
