Heterogeneous catalysis occurs on the surface of a catalyst particle in a gas or liquid
environment of reactants. The surface of the catalyst particle acts as an active chemical …

Heterogeneous catalysts, which often consist of metal nanoparticles loaded on supports
such as metal oxides, can undergo several types of restructuring under reaction and …

A national priority is to convert CO2 into high-value chemical products such as liquid fuels.
Because current electrocatalysts are not adequate, we aim to discover new catalysts by …

To improve Faradaic efficiency (FE) of CO 2 reduction reaction (CO 2 RR) to methanol over
Cu-based complex electrocatalysts, a novel MOF-derived Cu@ Cu 2 O heterogeneous …

Artificial photosynthesis can be used to store solar energy and reduce CO2 into fuels to
potentially alleviate global warming and the energy crisis. Compared to the generation of …

The (111) surface of copper (Cu), its most compact and lowest energy surface, became
unstable when exposed to carbon monoxide (CO) gas. Scanning tunneling microscopy …

It is well documented that the existence of oxygen vacancies and active Cu species can
improve CO oxidation activity over TiO 2 substrate. Herein, TiO 2-supported copper catalysts …

A main obstacle in the rational development of heterogeneous catalysts is the difficulty in
identifying active sites. Here we show metal/oxide interfacial sites are highly active for the …

Identification of the active copper species, and further illustration of the catalytic mechanism
of Cu‐based catalysts is still a challenge because of the mobility and evolution of Cu0 and …

Cu single-atom catalysts (SACs) supported on CeO2–TiO2 were prepared by a sol–gel
method and tested for CO oxidation between 120 and 350° C. Operando and in situ …
