Single-atom catalysts (SACs) can achieve excellent catalytic activity in CO2RR. However, the study of CO2RR on SACs still poses significant challenges, especially in terms of controlling the selectivity towards the deep product such as CH4 and CH3OH. Herein, we employ density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the CO2RR on Cu SAC supported on N-doped graphene (Cu-N/C) and explore the role of N dopants on the CO2RR performance. Compared to Cu SACs supported on N-doped defective graphene with double vacancy (Cu-N/C-DV), Cu SACs supported on N-doped defective graphene with single vacancy (Cu-N/C-SV) can effectively convert CO2 into the deeply reduced C1 products, including CH4 and CH3OH, thus further indicating that Cu-N/C-SV has a stronger interaction with ∗CO, which is conducive to the deep reduction of ∗CO. Increasing the coordination number of N atoms or the proximity of doping site to the Cu active site can effectively enhance the stability of catalyst and promote the adsorption of ∗CO on Cu-N/C-SV. However, this also increases the free energy of the formation of ∗CHO intermediate. The results suggest that CuC3-Nm, which contains a N atom in the second coordination shell (meta-position) of Cu SACs, has the best electrocatalytic performance of CO2RR in terms of both selectivity and catalytic activity, not only contributing to an in-depth understanding of the reaction mechanism of CO2RR on SACs but also providing insights into the design of SACs for efficient CO2RR.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10151,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Structural Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142177538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After being irradiated by a white LED, the blue PL intensity of the CN film increases significantly and then fades in darkness, demonstrating excellent recyclability. Experimental results prove that CN films contain cyano groups in the structure, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicate that the integration of cyano groups results in traps within the bandgap of CN, suggesting that the dynamic PL switching effect is essentially associated with the fullness of the trap states. We have therefore developed an advanced luminescent device for the secure transmission of encrypted information through controlled illumination.

Iron oxides are commonly used in photocatalytic reactions due to their various structures and suitable band gaps. Nevertheless, the structural evolution and real active components during photocatalytic CO2 hydrogenation reaction are rarely studied. Herein, a variety of iron oxides including α-Fe2O3, γ-Fe2O3, Fe3O4 and FeO were derived from Prussian blue precursors to investigate the CO2 hydrogenation performance, structural evolution and active components. Especially, the typical α- and γ-Fe2O3 are converted to Fe3O4 during the reaction, while Fe/FexOy remains structurally stable. Meanwhile, it is confirmed that Fe3O4 is the main active component for CO production and the formation of hydrocarbons (CH4 and C2–C4) are highly dependent on the Fe/FexOy heterojunctions. The optimal yields of CO, CH4 and C2–C4 hydrocarbons over the best catalyst (FeFe-550) can achieve 4 mmol g−1 h−1, 350 μmol g−1 h−1 and 150 μmol g−1 h−1, respectively due to their suitable metal/oxide component distribution.

Herein, a multifunctional Ti3C2 MXene membrane with unique double pillar support was proposed by liquid phase ultrasonication and vacuum filtration to overcome the above challenge. Introducing cetyl-trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and calcium chloride/sodium alginate (CaCl2/SA) to the MXene membrane as crossed double pillars and superhydrophilic surface increases the tolerance and wettability of the membrane. The fabricated doubly pillared MXene (d-Ti3C2) membrane exhibits superior oil/water (O/W) separation efficiency (99.76%) with flux (1.284 L m−2 h−1) for canola oil and organic dye removing efficiency for methyl blue (MB) 99.85%, malachite green (MG) 100%, and methyl violet (MV) 99.72%, respectively, which is 1.05, 1.44, 1.22, and 1.28 fold compared with pre-pillared Ti3C2 (p-Ti3C2). The superior anti-oil/dye/fouling is attributed to lower oil conglutination, high hydrophily, and antibacterial activity. The versatile MXene membrane also shows distinguished separation of VOCs (η > 99%) from polluted air. The experimental and molecular dynamics (MD) computational simulation results illustrate that the superior separation efficiency of the Ti3C2 MXene membrane is ascribed to the unique doubly pillared space channel.
