Achievements and challenges of copper-based single-atom catalysts for the reduction of carbon dioxide to C2+ products
The design strategies of single-atom copper catalysts are briefly summarized and the key factor for their application in industrially electrochemical conversion of CO2 into C2 and C2+ products are pointed out. Abstract: Copper is the only metal that can convert CO2 into C2 and C2+ in electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction (CO2RR). However, the Faraday efficiency of CO2 conversion …
