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

CO2 electroreduction on copper-cobalt nanoparticles: Size and composition effect

TL;DR: In this paper, bimetallic size-selected Cu100-xCox nanoparticle (NP) catalysts for CO2 electroreduction reaction (CO2RR) were identified and the optimum Cu/Co ratio and NP size leading to improved activity and selectivity.

CO2 Electroreduction on Copper-Cobalt Nanoparticles: Size and Composition Effect

TL;DR: In this paper, bimetallic size-selected Cu100-xCox nanoparticle (NP) catalysts were used for CO2 electroreduction reaction (CO2RR) and they identified the optimum Cu/Co ratio and NP size leading to improved activity and selectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Piece by Piece-Electrochemical Synthesis of Individual Nanoparticles and their Performance in ORR Electrocatalysis.

TL;DR: Collisions of individual precursor-filled nanocontainers are presented as a new route to nanoparticle-modified electrodes with high catalyst utilization and show great catalyst performance for ORR (oxygen reduction reaction) already at low catalyst loadings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reversible Water-Induced Phase Changes of Cobalt Oxide Nanoparticles.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate the appearance of water-induced structural changes different from voltage-induced changes and help to understand the atomic scale interaction of CoOx nanoparticles with water in electrochemical processes.
