Molecular understanding of the critical role of alkali metal cations in initiating CO2 electroreduction on Cu(100) surface

Abstract Molecular understanding of the solid–liquid interface is challenging but essential to elucidate the role of the environment on the kinetics of electrochemical reactions. Alkali metal cations (M+), as a vital component at the interface, are found to be necessary for the initiation of carbon...
