Abstract

Heteroatom‐doped carbon catalysts are currently attracting enormous attention due to their excellent performance for the electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction reaction (ECRR). However, the origin of the high catalytic activities of doped‐carbon materials remains obscure with the role of intrinsic carbon defects in promoting the ECRR receiving little attention despite the abundance of carbon defects in all carbon‐based catalytic materials. Herein, a positive correlation is reported between the ECRR performance of carbon‐based catalysts and the content of intrinsic carbon defects contained within these catalysts. Further, it is demonstrated that defective porous carbon catalysts containing no active heteroatom dopants also show excellent catalytic performance for ECRR. C K‐edge near edge X‐ray absorption fine structure measurements and density functional theory calculations reveal that sp 2 defects (octagonal and pentagonal) rather than edge defects are key to the excellent ECRR activity of the defective porous carbon catalysts. This work thus makes an important contribution to the understanding of the origin of the ECRR activity of carbon‐based catalysts, with heteroatom doping perhaps being less important than previously envisaged for achieving a high ECRR performance.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
