“…For example, metal Bi, Bi single atomic 13 , Bi spherical nanoparticles 14,15 , Bi nanobelts 16 , thin films 17 , Bi nanowires 18 , and Bi 2 O 3 nanotubes 11 have been synthesized, but all with very limited CO2RR catalytic performance to HCOO − production. Two-dimensional (2D) multilayered Bi nanosheets with limited CO2RR performance [19][20][21] have also been synthesized recently with state-of-the-art synthesis methodologies, including, but not limited to, sonochemical exfoliation of bulk Bi 22 and in situ topotactic electroreduction of Bi precursors 23 . The monolayer Bi nanosheet (Bismuthene) was experimentally realized recently over templates such as SiC 20 and NbSe 2 24 , while the unsupported, stable, free-standing Bismuthene has never been synthesized before, but predicted and studied theoretically in the context of investigating its thermoelectric and other electronic properties [25][26][27][28] .…”
