摘要
Research interest in the electrochemical reduction reaction of carbon dioxide(CO_(2)RR)into multicarbon(C_(2+))compounds has been growing significantly with numerous theoretical and experimental studies employing a variety of surface modification techniques,such as strong support interactions,heteroatom doping,surface functionalization,and morphology and defect engineering.The collective goal of these strategies is to fine-tune the electrochemical properties of catalysts,thereby breaking the C-C coupling barrier to achieve efficient and selective formation of C_(2+)products.In this review,we critically examine these research efforts,with a particular focus on achieving a comprehensive understanding of the innovative catalyst surface that dictates pathways for electrochemical CO_(2)RR to C_(2+)compounds.We begin by discussing the essential characteristics of catalyst surfaces that demonstrate superior catalytic activity and selectivity.Next,we explore the range of strategies used to create conducive catalyst surfaces.Finally,we provide an overview of catalytic performance and selectivity of materials in synthesizing C_(2+)products based on some high-throughput density functional theory and machine learning screening techniques.
