Electronic control of catalytic activity of ZnO for higher alcohols synthesis via tailoring Fermi level

Fang Li et al.

Summary: Metal doping is crucial for the electronic modulation of semiconductors, affecting the Fermi level and thus the surface chemisorption and catalytic properties. In this study, ZnO doped with 4 mol% Cu was synthesized using four preparation routes, revealing the significant impact of Cu states and Fermi level on the catalytic performance. Lower Fermi level in the electronically modified ZnO catalysts facilitated higher alcohols synthesis, while higher Fermi level favored methanol selectivity. Copper was incorporated into the ZnO lattice as isolated Cu2+ ions, adjusting the electronic structure and promoting the catalysts' electron acquisition. This work provides a new perspective on promoting catalytic performance through electronic modification of ZnO.
