A defect‐rich CoP/nitrogen‐doped carbon composite is reported for the first time derived from ZIF‐67 by means of low‐temperature phosphidation process. As a hydrogen evolution reaction electrocatalyst, the obtained CoP‐N‐C has high HER activity and good stability with a low onset overpotential of 31 mV, a small Tafel slope of 42 mV dec −1 , a large exchange current density of 1.6×10 −1 mA cm −2 , and a 10 mA cm −2 current density at overpotential 91 mV.
