Abstract Recent years have witnessed an upsurge of interest in exploiting advanced photo‐/electrocatalysts for efficient energy conversion and environmental remediation. Constructing internal electric fields has been highlighted as a rising star to help facilitate various catalytic processes, with the merits promoting charge transfer/separation, optimizing redox potential creating effective active/adsorption sites. Internal are usually formed by polarization uneven distributions between different constituent layers, which widely exist piezoelectrics, polar surface terminations, heterostructure materials. Herein, groundbreaking interdisciplinary overview latest advances construction improve photo(electro)catalytic electrocatalytic activity is provided. This critical review begins encyclopedic summary classification, advantages, synthesis strategies fields. Subsequently, identification methods thoroughly discussed based on characterization techniques, experiments, theoretical calculations, can provide profound guidance in‐depth study To elaborate theory–structure–activity relationships fields, corresponding reaction mechanisms, modification strategies, performance jointly discussed, along discussion their practical applications. Finally, insightful analysis challenges future prospects field‐based catalysts discussed.

Boosted Photoreforming of Plastic Waste via Defect-Rich NiPS₃ Nanosheets

Journal of the American Chemical Society, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 145(11), С. 6410 - 6419

Sustainable conversion of plastic waste to mitigate environmental threats and reclaim value is important. Ambient-condition photoreforming practically attractive convert hydrogen (H2); however, it has poor performance because mutual constraint between proton reduction substrate oxidation. Here, we realize a cooperative photoredox using defect-rich chalcogenide nanosheet-coupled photocatalysts, e.g., d-NiPS3/CdS, give an ultrahigh H2 evolution ∼40 mmol gcat-1 h-1 organic acid yield up 78 μmol within 9 h, together with excellent stability beyond 100 h in commercial poly(lactic acid) poly(ethylene terephthalate). Significantly, these metrics represent one the most efficient reported. In situ ultrafast spectroscopic studies confirm charge transfer-mediated reaction mechanism which d-NiPS3 rapidly extracts electrons from CdS boost evolution, favoring hole-dominated oxidation improve overall efficiency. This work opens practical avenues for converting into fuels chemicals.

Conjugated Coordination Polymer as a New Platform for Efficient and Selective Electroreduction of Nitrate into Ammonia

Advanced Materials, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 35(10)

Опубликована: Янв. 18, 2023

Electroreduction of nitrate into ammonia (NRA) provides a sustainable route to convert the widespread pollutants high-value-added products under ambient conditions, which unfortunately suffers from unsatisfactory selectivity due competitive hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Previous strategies modifying metal sites catalysts often met dilemma for simultaneously promoting activity and toward NRA. Here, general strategy is reported enable an efficient selective NRA process through coordination modulation single-atom tailor local proton concentration at catalyst surface. By contrast, two analogous Ni-single-atom enriched conjugated polymers (NiO4 -CCP NiN4 -CCP) with different motifs are investigated proof-of-concept study. The NiO4 exhibits yield rate as high 1.83 mmol h-1 mg-1 Faradaic efficiency 94.7% current density 125 mA cm-2 , outperforming catalyst. These experimental theoretical studies both suggest that can not only accelerate by adjusting adsorption energies intermediates on but also inhibit HER regulating migration contributions metal-hydrated cations adsorbed surface, thus achieving simultaneous enhancement activity.
