Converting CO2 to formic acid by tuning quantum states in metal chalcogenide clusters

Finding an efficient catalyst to convert CO2 into useful products is a challenging problem. Here, the authors use first-principles calculations to show how the attached donor/acceptor ligands on the Ti6Se8 cluster can be utilized to design effective catalysts for CO2 hydrogenation to formic acid.
