Abstract

Tandem Catalysis In article number 2214992, Andrew Barnabas Wong, Chunnian He, and co-workers illustrate a design principle to improve the performance of tandem electrocatalysts for converting CO2 to C2+ products (ethylene and ethanol) by managing diffusion of the key intermediate, CO, within a 3D model system. This model system consists of Ag nanoparticles within a Cu nanoneedle array to restrict CO diffusion away from Cu active sites, which boosts C-C coupling towards C2+ products.
