Active sites of ligand-protected Au{sub 25} nanoparticle catalysts for CO{sub 2} electroreduction to CO

Journal Article Alfonso, Dominic R., E-mail: alfonso@netl.doe.gov ; Kauffman, Douglas ; Matranga, Christopher - Journal of Chemical Physics

Recent experimental studies have reported the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO{sub 2}) into CO at atomically precise negatively charged Au{sub 25}{sup −} nanoclusters. The studies showed CO{sub 2} conversion at remarkably low overpotentials, but the exact mechanisms and nature of the active sites remain unclear. We used first-principles density functional theory and continuum solvation models to examine the role of the cluster during electrochemical CO{sub 2} reduction and analyze the free energies of proposed intermediate species. Contrary to previous assumptions, our results show that the fully ligand protected cluster is not an active CO{sub 2} reduction catalyst because formationmore »« less

Operando NRIXS and XAFS Investigation of Segregation Phenomena in Fe-Cu and Fe-Ag Nanoparticle Catalysts during CO₂ Electroreduction

Journal Article Kunze, Sebastian ; Grosse, Philipp ; Bernal Lopez, Miguel ; ... - Angewandte Chemie (International Edition)

Operando nuclear resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (NRIXS) and X-ray absorption fine-structure spectroscopy (XAFS) measurements were used to gain insight into the structure and surface composition of FeCu and FeAg nanoparticles (NPs) during the electrochemical CO₂ reduction (CO₂RR) and to extract correlations with their catalytic activity and selectivity. The formation of a core–shell structure during CO₂RR for FeAg NPs was inferred from the analysis of the operando NRIXS data (phonon density of states, PDOS) and XAFS measurements. Electrochemical analysis of the FeAg NPs revealed a faradaic selectivity of 36 % for CO in 0.1 M KHCO₃ at -1.1 V vs. RHE,more »« less

Dual-atom Ag₂/graphene catalyst for efficient electroreduction of CO₂ to CO

Journal Article Li, Yifan ; Chen, Chang ; Cao, Rui ; ... - Applied Catalysis B: Environmental

Electrochemical reduction of CO₂ into value-added carbon compounds offers a promising strategy to mitigate global warming, but present challenges for chemistry due to the poor selectivity and stability of electrocatalysts. In this work, we report a dual-atom Ag₂/graphene catalyst featuring well-defined AgN₃-AgN₃ active site for CO₂ electrochemical reduction. This dual-atom catalyst can drive CO₂ reduction reaction at a potential as high as -0.25 V, and exhibit excellent CO Faradic efficiency up to 93.4 % with a current density of 11.87 mA cm^-2 at -0.7 V and long-term stability, far surpassing the single-atom Ag₁/graphene and the traditional silver nanoparticle catalysts. Finally,more »« less

Calculations of CO Oxidation over a Au/TiO ₂ Catalyst: A Study of Active Sites, Catalyst Deactivation, and Moisture Effects

Journal Article Duan, Zhiyao ; Henkelman, Graeme - ACS Catalysis

The reaction mechanism of CO oxidation on Au/TiO₂ catalysts remains elusive. Here, we employ density functional theory calculations to gain an understanding of several important aspects of the system, including CO adsorption, the active oxygen species, catalyst deactivation, and the promoting effect of moisture on catalytic activity. Distinct from previous theoretical studies, which tend to address these questions individually, here we construct a model of the catalytic system which can address all of the issues mentioned. For this, we have considered the complex interactions among reactants, products, and catalysts under reaction conditions. The main findings of our present study aremore »« less
