Abstract:
Copper(I) oxide nanocubes were wrapped with an extremely uniform organic layer grown by self-controlled, Cu-mediated catalysis. This layer aided in retaining the initial cubic structure of the copper nanocubes during their use as a CO2 reduction electrocatalyst, resulting in high CO2 reduction selectivity by strong suppression of hydrogen evolution because of exclusion of water from the surface.
