Rational Fabrication of Low-Coordinate Single-Atom Ni Electrocatalysts by MOFs for Highly Selective CO2 Reduction

Yan Zhang et al.

Summary: A single-atom Ni catalyst with different N coordination numbers was fabricated using a post-synthetic metal substitution strategy. The Ni-N-3-C catalyst showed significantly enhanced COOH* formation leading to accelerated CO2 reduction, achieving high CO Faradaic efficiency and excellent performance in Zn-CO2 battery. This work provides a new approach for modulation of coordination microenvironment in single-atom catalysts for CO2 utilization.

Unraveling CO adsorption on model single-atom catalysts

Jan Hulva et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the adsorption strength of CO on single metal sites differs from that on metal surfaces and supported clusters, as charge transfer affects the d-states of the metal atom and the metal-CO bond strength. CO-induced structural distortions reduce adsorption energies, with the extent of relaxations depending on local geometry.

Precisely Controlled Vertical Alignment in Mesostructured Carbon Thin Films for Efficient Electrochemical Sensing

Ruicong Wang et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates a novel strategy for the fabrication of highly ordered mesoporous carbon thin films with vertically aligned and permeable mesopore channels through oriented monomicelle assembly. The precise controllability of the mesoporous carbon films' structure is achieved by utilizing the swelling and fusion effect of hydrophobic benzene homologues. The resulting mesoporous carbon films exhibit highly tunable thicknesses, mesopore sizes, and switchable growth substrates, showing ultralow detection limits and great sensitivity in electrochemical sensors.
