Dynamic restructuring of Cu-doped SnS2 nanoflowers for highly selective electrochemical CO2 reduction to formate by Chen, Mengxin, Wan, Shipeng, Zhong, Lixiang, Liu, Daobin, Yang, Hongbin, Li, Chengcheng, Huang, Zhiqi, Liu, Chuntai, Chen, Jian, Pan, Hongge, Li, Dong-Sheng, Li, Shuzhou, Yan, Qingyu, Liu, Bin

“…Theoretical thermodynamic analysis of reaction energetics indicates that the optimal electronic structure of the Sn active site can be regulated by both S-doping and Cu-alloying to favor formate formation, while the CO and H2 pathways will be suppressed. Our findings provide a rational strategy for electronic modulation of metal active site(s) for the design of active and selective electrocatalysts towards CO2 RR.…”
