Ferroelectric Catalysts in the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction: A Perspective
This perspective summarizes recent advances in ferroelectric (FE) catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). It first introduces HER fundamentals and FE mechanisms, then classifies FE catalysts into single‐phase, single‐atom‐modified, heterostructured, and other engineered types, with representative examples.

A chlorine‐functionalized silane modifier (CPTMS) is introduced to cooperatively regulate CO2 reduction to C2+ products on Cu‐based catalysts. Dual‐functional interface sequentially enhances CO2 activation, intermediates protonation and C─C coupling, delivering a 5‐fold increase in C2+ faradaic efficiency (FE, 75% vs.

Graphene iodide oxidation is regulated by Dirac cone engineering. Electrostatic gating tunes the Fermi level to control local iodide oxidation reaction activity, while magic‐angle twisted bilayer graphene creates flat‐band‐derived interfacial states that promote charge transfer and iodine‐species interaction, revealing a nanoscale route to electronic ...

Intrinsic Phonons as a Dynamic Control Knob for Catalytic Reactivity in 2D Materials
Intrinsic phonon excitations are demonstrated to serve as a dynamic control knob for catalytic reactivity in 2D materials. Mode‐selective lattice vibrations reconstruct the electronic structure, lower oxygen evolution reaction barriers, establishing a phonon‐engineering paradigm for dynamically regulating electrocatalysis beyond conventional static ...
