Boosting CO2 reduction on Fe-N-C with sulfur incorporation: Synergistic electronic and structural engineering
Open accessAbstract
Abstract Developing earth-abundant efficient catalysts for CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) is of paramount importance for electrochemical conversion of CO2 into value-added products. Despite numerous studies on iron and nitrogen codoped carbon (Fe-N-C) catalysts, grand challenges exist due to limited performance and understanding of catalytic mechanisms. This study reports a general strategy to boost electrocatalytic CO2RR activity of Fe-N-C with the incorporation of S atoms to engineer carbon support structure and electronic properties of active Fe–N sites simultaneously via a copolymer-assisted synthetic approach. The employment of N,S comonomers significantly increases the numbers of micropores and surface area, enabling dense atomic Fe–N and enhanced utilization efficiency. The first-principles calculations reveal that S modulation upraises the Fermi energy of Fe 3d and increases charge density on Fe atoms of Fe–N4, thereby enhancing intrinsic catalytic reactivity and selectivity for CO2 reduction by strengthening the binding interaction between the Fe site and key COOH* intermediate. These integrated structural and electronic merits endow Fe-NS-C with outstanding activity (e.g., CO Faradaic efficiency of 98% at an overpotential of 490 mV) and stability (without deactivation in 30 h), ranking it one of the most active Fe-N-C reported to date. The finding offers an innovative design strategy to enable the design of advanced catalysts for CO2 conversion.

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.
