A Mn-N3 single-atom catalyst embedded in graphitic carbon nitride for efficient CO2 electroreduction
Open accessAbstract
Developing effective catalysts based on earth abundant elements is critical for CO 2 electroreduction. However, simultaneously achieving a high Faradaic efficiency (FE) and high current density of CO (jCO) remains a challenge. Herein, we prepare a Mn single-atom catalyst (SAC) with a Mn-N 3 site embedded in graphitic carbon nitride. The prepared catalyst exhibits a 98.8% CO FE with a jCO of 14.0 mA cm−2 at a low overpotential of 0.44 V in aqueous electrolyte, outperforming all reported Mn SACs. Moreover, a higher jCO of 29.7 mA cm−2 is obtained in an ionic liquid electrolyte at 0.62 V overpotential. In situ X-ray absorption spectra and density functional theory calculations demonstrate that the remarkable performance of the catalyst is attributed to the Mn-N 3 site, which facilitates the formation of the key intermediate COOH* through a lowered free energy barrier.

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.
