Synergy of nanocrystalline carbon nitride with Cu single atom catalyst leads to selective photocatalytic reduction of CO2 to methanol (2024)
Journal Article
LeMercier, T. M., Thangamuthu, M., Kohlrausch, E. C., Chen, Y., Stoppiello, C. T., Fay, M. W., …Khlobystov, A. N. (2024). Synergy of nanocrystalline carbon nitride with Cu single atom catalyst leads to selective photocatalytic reduction of CO2 to methanol. Sustainable Energy and Fuels, https://doi.org/10.1039/D4SE00028E

Carbon nitride (C3N4) possesses both a band gap in the visible range and a low-lying conduction band potential, suitable for water splitting and CO2 reduction reactions (CO2RR). Yet, bulk C3N4 (b-C3N4) suffers from structural disorder leading to slug...

Direct Deposition of Copper Atoms onto Graphitic Step Edges Lowers Overpotential and Improves Selectivity of Electrocatalytic CO2 Reduction (2024)
Working Paper
Thangamuthu, M., Burwell, T., Aliev, G., Ghaderzadeh, S., Kohlrausch, E., Chen, Y., …Khlobystov, A. Direct Deposition of Copper Atoms onto Graphitic Step Edges Lowers Overpotential and Improves Selectivity of Electrocatalytic CO2 Reduction

Minimizing our reliance on bulk precious metals is to increase the fraction of surface atoms and improve the metal-support interface. In this work, we employ a solvent/ligand/counterion-free method to deposit copper in the atomic form directly onto a...
