For all electrocatalysts (even Pt), the kinetics of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in alkaline environments are more sluggish by a factor of two to three compared to those in acidic solutions. Here, we demonstrated the preparation of a novel ruthenium/nitrogen-doped carbon (Ru/NC) electrocatalyst supported by graphite foam, in which abundant, singly dispersed Ru atoms were chelated to a nitrogen-doped carbon matrix. In a 1 M KOH aqueous solution, the resultant Ru/NC electrocatalyst exhibited excellent electrocatalytic HER activity with an extremely low overpotential of only 21 mV at 10 mA cm-2 and an excellent mass current density as high as 8 A mg
