Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction
In article number 2109330, Zhenyi Zhang and co‐workers report plasmonic active “hot spot”‐confined photocatalytic CO2 reduction over a well‐designed Au/TiO2/W18O49 plasmonic heterostructure. The active “hot spot” can synergistically confine hot electrons, CO, and protons, thereby leading to high photocatalytic activity and selectivity for CH4 production.
Plasmonic nanostructures have tremendous potential to be applied in photocatalytic CO2 reduction, since their localized surface plasmon resonance can collect low‐energy‐photons to derive energetic “hot electrons” for reducing the CO2 activation‐barrier. However, the hot electron‐driven CO2 reduction is usually limited by poor efficiency and low selectivity for producing kinetically unfavorable hydrocarbons...
