Abstract

The catalytic activity and selectivity of the electrochemical CO 2 reduction on Cu overlayers with varying atomic-scale thickness on Pt was investigated. Hydrogen, methane, and ethylene were the main products. Beyond an activity improvement with increasing copper layer thickness, we observed that the thickest 15 nm Cu layer behaved bulk-like and resulted in high relative faradaic selectivities for hydrocarbons. With decreasing Cu layer thickness, the formation of methane decreased much faster than that of ethylene. As a result, the relative faradaic selectivity of the technologically useful product ethylene increased sharply. The selectivity ratios between methane and ethylene were independent of electrode potential on a Cu monolayer. A combination of geometric tensile strain effects and electronic effects is believed to control the surface reactivity and product distribution on the copper surfaces. This study highlights the general strategy to tune product distributions on thin metal overlayers.

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.
