Recent Advances and Perspectives of Core-Shell Nanostructured Materials for Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction

Rui-tang Guo et al.

Summary: Photocatalytic CO2 conversion into solar fuels is a promising technology for reducing CO2 emissions and addressing energy crises. Core-shell structured photocatalysts have numerous benefits, including high conversion efficiency, excellent selectivity, and durable catalyst stability, making them indispensable in the field of photocatalytic CO2 reduction. This review provides an overview of recent developments in core-shell materials for photocatalytic CO2 reduction, discussing the basic principles, classification, synthesis techniques, and the enhanced activity, selectivity, and stability resulting from the core-shell structure. The review aims to serve as a valuable reference for the preparation of efficient photocatalysts for CO2 reduction.

Facet engineering in Au nanoparticles buried in p-Si photocathodes for enhanced photoelectrochemical CO2 reduction

Jiaxin Hu et al.

Summary: The study reports a novel two-step strategy for efficient and selective photoelectrochemical (PEC) conversion of CO2 to CO by integrating uniform Au NPs with controllable Au(111)/Au(200) boundaries on p-Si photocathodes. The presence of Au(111)/Au (200) boundaries significantly reduces the energy barrier for CO2 reduction, while embedding the Au NPs into Si surface improves PEC activity, selectivity, and operational stability. The optimized Au/p-Si photocathode exhibits high CO selectivity of 82.2% and impressive operational stability for over one week, providing valuable insights for the design of photocathodes for solar fuel production.

Nickel and indium core-shell co-catalysts loaded silicon nanowire arrays for efficient photoelectrocatalytic reduction of CO2 to formate

Wenchao Ma et al.

Summary: The development of an efficient artificial photosynthetic system for CO2 reduction is a significant challenge in modern chemistry. By using a core-shell-structured nonnoble-metal Ni@In co-catalyst, the photoelectrocatalytic performance for CO2 reduction is greatly enhanced, leading to higher formation rate and Faradaic efficiency of formate compared to pristine SiNWs. This improvement is attributed to the rational combination of Ni and In for effective extraction of photogenerated electrons and selective activation of CO2.
