Potential Link between Cu Surface and Selective CO2 Electroreduction: Perspective on Future Electrocatalyst Designs
Abstract
Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO 2 RR) product distribution has been identified to be dependent on various surface factors, including the Cu facet, morphology, chemical states, doping, etc., which can alter the binding strength of key intermediates such as *CO and *OCCO during reduction. Therefore, in‐depth knowledge of the Cu catalyst surface and identification of the active species under reaction conditions aid in designing efficient Cu‐based electrocatalysts. This progress report categorizes various Cu‐based electrocatalysts into four main groups, namely metallic Cu, Cu alloys, Cu compounds (Cu + non‐metal), and supported Cu‐based catalysts (Cu supported by carbon, metal oxides, or polymers). The detailed mechanisms for the selective CO 2 RR are presented, followed by recent relevant developments on the synthetic procedures for preparing Cu and Cu‐based nanoparticles. Herein, the potential link between the Cu surface and CO 2 RR performance is highlighted, especially in terms of the chemical states, but other significant factors such as defective sites and roughened morphology of catalysts are equally considered during the discussion of current studies of CO 2 RR with Cu‐based electrocatalysts to fully understand the origin of the significant enhancement toward C 2 formation. This report concludes by providing suggestions for future designs of highly selective and stable Cu‐based electrocatalysts for CO 2 RR.

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.
