Abstract:Excess of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere poses a significant threat to the global climate. Therefore, the electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR) is important to reduce the burden on the environment and provide possibilities for developing new energy sources. However, highly active and selective catalysts are needed to effectively catalyze product synthesis with high adhesion value. Single-atom catalysts (SACs) and double-atom catalysts (DACs) have attracted much attention in the fie… Show more
Presolvated electron possibility in three oxidation states of aluminum –Al(0), Al(I), and Al(II)– has been theoretically investigated for the Al+6NH3, Al(CH3)+5NH3, and Al(CH3)2+4NH3 reactions. It has been shown that the...

“…It is a favorable weapon for reasonably analyzing the reaction mechanism and predicting the catalytic steps and has an indispensable inspiration and guidance for experimental preparation. 285 For ECO 2 RR, the intrinsic properties of CO 2 molecules are variable, the types of intermediates of CO 2 RR are multifarious, and the effects of solvation and ion on CO 2 RR at the solid–liquid interface are relatively complex. Theoretical calculations are increasingly being relied upon to reveal the mechanism of the tedious reaction steps and to screen for more optimized material compositions and structures.…”
Electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide (ECO2RR) is a promising way to realize the transformation of waste into treasure, which can not only meet the environmental goal of reducing carbon emissions,...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
