“…After identified the physical meaning of the ΔΩ(eV)– U (V) slope, we also calculated the HER competition upon other reported heterogeneous catalysts, ,,, including Cu(211), Ag(110), iron doped in 2D phthalocyanine (Fe-Pc), cobalt in 2D porphyrin (Co–Pr), and cobalt doped in nitrogen-doped (4N) graphene (Co-Gra@N4), shown in Figure b and Figure S9. Generally, larger electron transfer can be observed in *H formation (larger (ΔΩ– U ) slope) than CO 2 chemisorption; thus, these catalysts will show the coverage crossover as discussed above, HER will also completely suppress CO 2 RR at high applied potential, the current dilemma of realization of industrial electrocatalytic CO 2 RR.…”
