Molybdenum phosphide in transition metal phosphides members are considered as an attractive electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). However, its unsatisfactory stability and conductivity in an alkaline environment has dragged on its development. Here, we successfully introduced N, C co-doped MoP (MoP-NC) nanoparticles by a simple and efficient two-step synthesis method using urea as a carbon source into the molybdenum phosphide system. The cheapness of urea and the excellent carbon to nitrogen ratio remove the obstacles ahead of the development of MoP-NC composites. The obtained composites have excellent HER electrocatalytic activity and stability in 1-M potassium hydroxide (KOH) solution, which requires only an overpotential of 131 mV to achieve a current density of 10 mA cm −2  and exhibits negligible performance degradation after 1000 CV cycles.
