Abstract

The surface frustrated Lewis pairs (SFLPs) on defect-laden metal oxides provide catalytic sites to activate H 2 and CO 2 molecules and enable efficient gas-phase CO 2 photocatalysis. Lattice engineering of metal oxides provides a useful strategy to tailor the reactivity of SFLPs. Herein, a one-step solvothermal synthesis is developed that enables isomorphic replacement of Lewis acidic site In 3+ ions in In 2 O 3 by single-site Bi 3+ ions, thereby enhancing the propensity to activate CO 2 molecules. The so-formed Bi x In 2-x O 3 materials prove to be three orders of magnitude more photoactive for the reverse water gas shift reaction than In 2 O 3 itself, while also exhibiting notable photoactivity towards methanol production. The increased solar absorption efficiency and efficient charge-separation and transfer of Bi x In 2-x O 3 also contribute to the improved photocatalytic performance. These traits exemplify the opportunities that exist for atom-scale engineering in heterogeneous CO 2 photocatalysis, another step towards the vision of the solar CO 2 refinery.

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.
