Breaking the linear scaling limit in multi-electron-transfer electrocatalysis through intermediate spillover

Linear scaling relationships often hinder the optimization of heterogeneous catalysts. Now, an intermediate spillover strategy is put forward by designing bi-component catalysts, thereby decoupling elementary electron-transfer steps and circumventing linear scaling relationships.

Atomic metal–non-metal catalytic pair drives efficient hydrogen oxidation catalysis in fuel cells

Fuel cells rely on costly and scarce platinum-group metals to catalyse both anodic and cathodic reactions. Here a catalyst consisting of atomically dispersed iridium and phosphorus on carbon is presented, where adjacent iridium and phosphorus sites work as integrative catalytic pairs to synergically boost the performance for the hydrogen oxidation reaction.

Manipulating C-C coupling pathway in electrochemical CO₂ reduction for selective ethylene and ethanol production over single-atom alloy catalyst

Manipulating the carbon-carbon coupling pathway in CO₂ electroreduction is vital yet challenging. Here, by studying two model copper-based catalysts with distinct ethylene and ethanol selectivity, authors investigate the mechanistic origins for symmetric and asymmetric carbon-carbon coupling.

Atomic high-spin cobalt(II) center for highly selective electrochemical CO reduction to CH₃OH

Molecular catalysts provide an ideal model system to investigate the relationship between active site structure and catalytic performance. Here, the authors explore how electrochemical CO reduction to methanol can be controlled through modification of the active cobalt site in cobalt phthalocyanine.
