On-Surface Modification of Copper Cathodes by Copper(I)-Catalyzed Azide Alkyne Cycloaddition and CO2 Reduction in Organic Environments

In this study, organic structures were introduced onto copper cathodes to induce changes in their electrocatalytic CO2 reduction activity. Poorly soluble organic polymers were distributed onto the copper surface as a thin layer by polymerizing monomeric precursors via a copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alk...
