Continuous‐Flow Microfluidic Synthesis Enhances C2+ Selectivity for Cu2O Catalysts

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Microfluidic devices are used to prepare Cu2O nanoparticles under laminar flow conditions, which exhibit enhanced selectivity in the CO2‐to‐C2+ reaction due to their nanoporosity and high defect concentration. Cu2O prepared using standard solution methods displays decreased CO2‐to‐C2+ selectivity due to the absence of similar properties. Altogether, we

Adaptive Cu Reconstruction in Heterostructure Drives High‐Rate Nitrate‐to‐Ammonia Conversion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An adaptively reconstructed Cu/CoOX heterojunction, featuring a surface‐localized, hydroxyl‐rich oxidized Cu species, forms in situ from a CuO/CoOX (Co1Cu9OX) pre‐catalyst during electrochemical nitrate reduction. The self‐adaptive reconstruction and the incorporation of heterostructure regulate nitrogen‐containing intermediate adsorption and *H supply,

Two‐Dimensional Quaternary Alloys of (RuMoVNb)Se2 for Superior Hydrogen Evolution Reaction Catalysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Composition‐tuned (RuMoVNb)Se2 quaternary alloy nanosheets are synthesized via colloidal reactions. Incorporation of Ru into (MoVNb)Se2 ternary alloys results in more metallic electronic structures and significantly enhances their electrocatalytic activity for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) under alkaline, acidic, and neutral conditions.
