Tuning the electron structure enables the NiZn alloy for CO2 electroreduction to formate

Xiaodong Zhang et al.

Summary: An environmentally friendly and low-cost NiZn alloy catalyst has been developed for CO2RR to formate, exhibiting high Faraday efficiency and stability. Theoretical calculations suggest that the middle valence electron structure of the NiZn alloy is favorable for formate formation and unfavorable for hydrogen and CO production. UV photoelectron spectroscopy results confirm the modulated valence electron structure of the NiZn alloy compared to Ni and Zn.
