Variation in the synthesis conditions tuned the composition of monoclinic and orthorhombic phases of Ni3Bi2S2. The electrochemical hydrogen evolution activity of the catalyst with highest percentage of monoclinic phase demonstrated a negligible onset potential of only 24 mV close to that of state-of-the-art Pt/C with an overpotential as low as 88 mV. Density functional theory calculations predicted the monoclinic phase exhibit the lowest adsorption free energy corresponding to hydrogen adsorption (Delta GadsH*) and, therefore, the highest hydrogen evolution activity amongst the considered phases. The quasi-2D structure of monoclinic phase facilitated an increased charge-transfer between Ni and Bi, favoring the downward shift of the d-band center to enhance the catalytic activity.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">15</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8.928</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
