Morphology-dependent interactions of ZnO with Cu nanoparticles at the materials' interface in selective hydrogenation of CO2 to CH3OH.
A good face: The (002) polar facet of platelike ZnO nanoparticles gives a much stronger electronic interaction with Cu nanoparticles than other facets (see picture; CB=conductance band; VB=valence band) and shows higher selectivity in the catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol. This finding prov...
