“…+ at ≈1460 cm −1 ). [63][64][65] For Bi 1 Pd (Figure 5d), with increasing potentials, all deoxidation intermediates (*NO, *NO 2 ), protonation intermediates (*NH, *NH 2 ) and NH 4 + can be observed and their band intensity is gradually increased, suggesting the effective NO 3 − activation, deoxidation, and protonation on Bi 1 Pd to continuously produce NH 3 . As a sharp contrast, Pd metallene (Figure 5e) shows distinct vibration bands of deoxidation intermediates (*NO, *NO 2 ), but too weak bands of protonation intermediates (*NH, *NH 2 ), consequently resulting in a poor NH 3 yield, as reflected by the much lower band intensity of NH 4…”
