Asymmetrically Coordinated Main Group Atomic In-S1N3 Interface Sites for Promoting Electrochemical CO2 Reduction

Designing catalysts with highly active, selectivity, and stability for electrocatalytic CO2 to formate is currently a severe challenge. Herein, we developed an electronic structure engineering on carbon nano frameworks embedded with nitrogen and sulfur asymmetrically dual-coordinated indium active sites toward the efficient electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction. As expected, atomically dispersed In-based catalysts with In-S1N3 atomic interface with asymmetrically coordinated exhibited high efficiency for CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) to formate. It achieved a maximum Faradaic efficiency (FE) of 94.3
