摘要

天然丰富的氮(N2)在环境条件下的电化学还原是一种很有前途的氨(NH3)合成方法,但开发一种高活性、稳定、低成本的催化剂是其面临的挑战。本文通过密度泛函理论(DFT)计算系统地研究了电化学氮还原中TM@g-BC3N4的N2还原反应,并与TM@g-C3N4的N2还原反应进行了比较。发现TM原子比g-C3N4更稳定地锚定在g-BC3N4上。相对于Fe@g-C3N4, N2分子在Fe@g-BC3N4上的吸附自由能变化最大,减小了1.08 eV。与Fe@g-C3N4相比,Fe@g-BC3N4中Fe原子周围的自旋电荷密度显著增加,体系的总磁矩增加了3.26 μB。与Fe@g-C3N4 (-0.63 V)相比,Fe@g-BC3N4的氮还原极限电位(-0.57 V)降低了0.06 V,氨分子的解吸自由能从1.72 eV降低到0.46 eV。铁原子具有较高的催化活性,氨分子更易解吸,氮还原性能较好。这为g- c3n4基单原子催化剂在氮还原领域的应用提供了重要参考。

Single-atom transition metals supported on B-doped g-C3N4 monolayers for electrochemical nitrogen reduction†

Electrochemical reduction of naturally abundant nitrogen (N2) under ambient conditions is a promising method for ammonia (NH3) synthesis, while the development of a highly active, stable and low-cost catalyst remains a challenge. Herein, the N2 reduction reaction of TM@g-BC3N4 in electrochemical nitrogen reduction has been systematically investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations and compared with that of TM@g-C3N4. It was found that TM atoms are more stably anchored to g-BC3N4 than to g-C3N4. The adsorption free energy of N2 molecules on Fe@g-BC3N4 has the greatest change compared with that on Fe@g-C3N4, decreasing by 1.08 eV. The spin charge density around the Fe atom in Fe@g-BC3N4 increases significantly compared with that in Fe@g-C3N4, and the total magnetic moment of the system increases by 3.26μB. The limiting potential (−0.57 V) of Fe@g-BC3N4 in nitrogen reduction is decreased by 0.06 V compared with that of Fe@g-C3N4 (−0.63 V), and the desorption free energy of ammonia molecules decreases from 1.72 eV to 0.46 eV. The Fe atom has higher catalytic activity, the ammonia molecule is easier for desorption, and nitrogen reduction performance is better. This provides an important reference for the application of g-C3N4-based single atom catalysts in the field of nitrogen reduction.

期刊介绍: Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
