Thiol‐Modulation‐Induced Mesoporous Nanosheets with an Alloy/Intermetallic Heterophase for Efficient Electrochemical Ethylene Glycol‐Assisted Water Splitting

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Sulfur‐capped mesoporous PtPbBi nanosheets (S‐PtPbBi MNSs) with an alloy/intermetallic compound heterophase and inhomogeneous tensile strain (≈3%) were synthesized by a thiol modification strategy, which exhibited excellent electrocatalytic performance for ethylene glycol oxidation reaction (EGOR).

Cu2O/Cu Chiral Catalysts for Highly Selective Solar‐Assisted CO2‐to‐CO Electroreduction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
To address the poor target‐product selectivity of the eCO2RR, breakthrough approaches based on the chiral‐induced spin selectivity phenomenon enhance the Faradaic efficiency (FE) for target hydrocarbons, such as CO. To induce this spin polarization strategy in Cu2O/Cu catalysts, it is proposed using amine‐based intermediate organic molecules with ...
