Synergistic Electronic Modulation in Dual-Alkali-Doped CuO for Wide-Window CO2 to C2 Electroreduction

Abstract Electrocatalytic CO2 reduction (CO2ER) to C2 products on Cu-based catalysts is often limited by poor selectivity, narrow potential windows, and competitive hydrogen evolution (HER). Here, a bulk lattice co-doping strategy involving dual alkali metals (Na and K) is develo...

Boosting the Methanol Yield of CO2 Hydrogenation by Strengthening Carbon-Mediated Hydrogen Spillover of a Copper–Zinc-Alumina Catalyst

Abstract A copper–zinc–alumina catalyst doped with activated carbon (CZA-0.1AC) is facilely fabricated via the physical mixing method. Mechanistic studies indicate that the intimate carbon–copper contact promotes hydrogen spillover, which suppresses Cu particle aggregation, stabi...
