Keeping sight of copper in single-atom catalysts for electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction
Cu-based single atom catalysts can convert CO2 into multi-carbon products, however, the assignment of active sites needs great caution. In this comment, the authors discuss the transient Cu cluster formation as active sites and emphasise the need for operando characterisation in mechanistic study.
