Journal ArticleDOI
Monodisperse Au nanoparticles for selective electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 to CO.
Wenlei Zhu,Ronald Michalsky,Önder Metin,Haifeng Lv,Shaojun Guo,Christopher J. Wright,Xiaolian Sun,Andrew A. Peterson,Shouheng Sun +8 more
TL;DR: The work demonstrates the great potentials of using monodisperse Au NPs to optimize the available reaction intermediate binding sites for efficient and selective electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 to CO.
Journal ArticleDOI
Active and Selective Conversion of CO2 to CO on Ultrathin Au Nanowires
Wenlei Zhu,Yin-Jia Zhang,Hongyi Zhang,Haifeng Lv,Qing Li,Ronald Michalsky,Andrew A. Peterson,Shouheng Sun +7 more
TL;DR: This communication shows that ultrathin Au nanowires (NWs) with dominant edge sites on their surface are active and selective for electrochemical reduction of CO2 to CO and are the most efficient nanocatalyst ever reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Competition between CO2 Reduction and H2 Evolution on Transition-Metal Electrocatalysts
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present DFT calculations that suggest that coadsorbed CO during hydrogen evolution will weaken the binding strength between H and the catalyst surface, which may lead to a suppression of the hydrogen evolution reaction, as has been reported for metals such as Cu and Pt.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trends in the Hydrogen Evolution Activity of Metal Carbide Catalysts
TL;DR: In this article, the experimental exchange current densities for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) on eight mono-and bimetallic carbide electrocatalysts were reported and correlated with hydrogen binding energies that were calculated via electronic structure computations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemical looping of metal nitride catalysts: low-pressure ammonia synthesis for energy storage
Ronald Michalsky,Ronald Michalsky,Ronald Michalsky,Alexandru M. Avram,Brian A. Peterson,Peter H. Pfromm,Andrew A. Peterson +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate how ammonia can be produced at ambient pressure from air, water, and concentrated sunlight as renewable source of process heat via nitrogen reduction with a looped metal nitride, followed by separate hydrogenation of the lattice nitrogen into ammonia.
