“…An approach to tune the electronic structure of catalysts is incorporation of heteroatom, especially for carbon-based materials. Generally, different dopants (B, N, P, and F) possess various electronegativities, which are different from the electronegativity of carbon atoms, thus breaking electroneutral carbon networks and inducing redistribution of electrons (Figure a–d). , The most common dopant heteroatoms for improving CO 2 reduction activity is N atoms . The N dopant can be classified into quaternary N, pyridinic N, pyrrolic N, and oxidized N species (Figure e).…”
