Ligand Recognition Directs Functional Ionic Layer Construction on Metal Nanoclusters for Electrocatalysis

Abstract Cation effects are central to electrocatalytic CO2 reduction, but freely dissolved cations lack positional control, defined function and persistent coupling to surface motifs. Precise regulation of such ionic microenvironments remains difficult in ligand-stabilized metal...

Protocols on X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy Measurement and Interpretation

Abstract Understanding the local electronic and atomic structure of materials is central to modern physics, chemistry, materials science, and nanotechnology. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) provides element-specific insight into these local environments through core-level X-r...
