Lithium Vacancy-Tuned [CuO4] Sites for Selective CO2 Electroreduction to C2+ Products

Chen Peng et al.

Summary: Utilizing an electrochemical delithiation strategy, a lithium vacancy-tuned Li2CuO2 catalyst was developed to enhance the efficiency and selectivity of electrochemical CO2 reduction to valuable multi-carbon (C2+) products. The introduction of lithium vacancies led to improved CO-CO coupling, resulting in a high Faradaic efficiency of 90.6 +/- 7.6% for C2+ and an outstanding partial current density of -706 +/- 32 mA cm(-2) under certain conditions. This work demonstrates a promising approach to produce controllable alkali metal vacancy-tuned Cu catalytic sites for C2+ products in electrochemical CO2 reduction.

Structure-Performance Descriptors and the Role of the Axial Oxygen Atom on M-N4-C Single-Atom Catalysts for Electrochemical CO2 Reduction

Jing Wang et al.

Summary: In this study, the mechanism of CO2 reduction to methane on catalysts was investigated using density functional theory calculations.

Enhanced Cuprophilic Interactions in Crystalline Catalysts Facilitate the Highly Selective Electroreduction of CO2 to CH4

Lei Zhang et al.

Summary: Cu(I)-based catalysts are essential for the electrocatalytic CO2 reduction, and in this study, two stable copper(I)-based catalysts with inherent cuprophilic interactions were synthesized for highly selective CO2-to-CH4 conversion. The substitution of sulfate radicals with hydroxyl radicals led to a dynamic crystal structure transition, enhancing the cuprophilic interactions inside the catalyst structure. The enhanced cuprophilic interactions in NNU-33(H) showed outstanding CH4 selectivity, representing the best crystalline catalyst for electrocatalytic CO2-to-CH4 conversion.
