Ultra-high thermal stability of sputtering reconstructed Cu-based catalysts

Applications of Cu catalysts at high-temperature is a long-sought goal but limited by their serious deactivation due to low copper’s Tammann temperature. Here, the authors introduce an encapsulation layer to improve thermal stability at 800 °C by reconstructing electronic structure of Cu atoms.
