thing

that

comes

to

mind

is

support

interactions.

The

authors

calculate

for

free

standing

monolayer,

but

any

real

HER

catalyst

would

have

to

be

supported.

Recently,

DFT

calculations

(e.g.,

Nano

Lett.

2014,

14,

1381?1387)

have

shown

that

support

interactions

can

have

a

profound

effect

on

the

hydrogen

adsorption

free

energy.

Hence,

for

any

correlation

with

experimental

results

support

interactions

would

likely

be

important

to

include.

Could

the

authors

comment

on

that?

Are

the

conclusions

likely

to

change

if

support

interactions,

including

strain,

are

included?
