摘要：Low cost, highly selective and efficient electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) is crucial for lowering the global carbon footprint and mitigating energy shortages. Here, we first report a highly selective and efficient electrocatalyst for CO2RR to CO using a surface-regulated Ni nanoparticles supported on N-doped CMK-3 (N,O-Ni/CMK3). Compared with most Ni metal catalysts previously reported with severe competitive hydrogen evolution during the CO2RR, the N,O-Ni/CMK3 catalyst presents a superior CO faradaic efficiency of about 97%, a high CO partial current density (13.01 mA cm(-1)) and turnover frequency (4.25 s(-1)). The comprehensive characterization provides evidence that the N,O co-regulated Ni acts as the active center. Taking advantage of the N, O co-regulated chemical environment, N,O-Ni/CMK3 also displays a decent stability at negative potentials. Our work paves a novel approach for developing transition metal catalysts for CO2RR with enhanced activity and selectivity via regulating surface chemical environment.
