Keeping sight of copper in single-atom catalysts for electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction

Carbon dioxide can be electrochemically converted into valuable multi-carbon products using Cu-based single-atom catalysts. However, transient cluster formation, which is undetectable using ex-situ techniques, may be responsible for C(2+) products. Here we discuss these observations to highlight the...

description Carbon dioxide can be electrochemically converted into valuable multi-carbon products using Cu-based single-atom catalysts. However, transient cluster formation, which is undetectable using ex-situ techniques, may be responsible for C(2+) products. Here we discuss these observations to highlight the need for operando characterisation when defining active sites.
