Atomically dispersed Fe3+ sites catalyze efficient CO2 electroreduction to CO

Xile Hu, Lichen Bai, Jun Gu

Currently, the most active electrocatalysts for the conversion of CO2 to CO are gold-based nanomaterials, whereas non-precious metal catalysts have shown low to modest activity. Here, we report a catalyst of dispersed single-atom iron sites that produces C ...
