Infrared-Light-Driven CO2 Reduction Realized by a Charge-Asymmetrical Metallic Conductor

Until now, there has been a paradox in the utilization of infrared (IR) light, which carries a significant amount of solar energy (around 50% of the spectrum), for carbon dioxide (CO2) photoreduction. Given this, we propose a metallic conductor with charge ...
