Plasma-Activated Copper Nanocube Catalysts for Efficient Carbon Dioxide Electroreduction to Hydrocarbons and Alcohols

TL;DR: This work has developed highly active and selective copper nanocube catalysts with tunable Cu(100) facet and oxygen/chlorine ion content by low-pressure plasma pretreatments, demonstrating that the catalyst shape, ion content, and ion stability under electrochemical reaction conditions can be systematically tuned through plasma treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved CO2 Electroreduction Performance on Plasma-Activated Cu Catalysts via Electrolyte Design: Halide Effect

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of the electrolyte, in particular of halide ions, on CO2 electroreduction over plasma-oxidized polycrystalline Cu foils was reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective CO 2 Electroreduction to Ethylene and Multicarbon Alcohols via Electrolyte-Driven Nanostructuring.

TL;DR: High C2+ selectivity of nanostructured Cu catalysts synthesized in the presence of specific anions can be attributed to the highly roughened surface morphology induced by the synthesis, presence of subsurface oxygen and Cu+ species, and the adsorbed halides.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma-Modified Dendritic Cu Catalyst for CO2 Electroreduction.

TL;DR: Low-pressure oxygen plasmas are used to modify dendritic Cu catalysts and were able to achieve enhanced selectivity toward C2 and C3 products, shedding light into the strong structure/chemical state-selectivity correlation in CO2RR and open venues for the rational design of more effective catalysts through plasma pretreatments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhanced Stability and CO/Formate Selectivity of Plasma-Treated SnOx/AgOx Catalysts during CO2 Electroreduction

TL;DR: This study highlights the importance of roughness, composition, and chemical state effects in CO2 electrocatalysis by leading to a highly roughened surface containing stable Snδ+/Sn species that were found to be key in the enhanced activity and stable CO/formate (HCOO–) selectivity.
