摘要

Carbon dioxide (CO_2) reduction to useful chemicals is of great significance to global climate and energy supply. In this study, CO_2 has been photoelectrocatalytically reduced to formate at metallic Cu nanoparticles (Cu NPs) decorated Co_3O_4 nanotube arrays (NTs) with high yield and high selectivity of nearly 100%. Noticeably, up to 6.75 mmol·L~(-1)·cm~(-2) of formate was produced in an 8 h photoelectrochemical process, representing one of the highest yields among those in the literature. The results of scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and photoelectrochemical characterization demonstrated that the enhanced production of formate was attributable to the self-supported Co_3O_4 NTs/Co structure and the interface band structure of Co_3O_4 NTs and metallic Cu NPs. Furthermore, a possible two-electron reduction mechanism on the selective PEC CO_2 reduction to formate at the Cu-Co_3O_4 NTs was explored. The first electron reduction intermediate, CO_(2ads)~(·-), was adsorbed on Cu in the form of Cu-O. With the carbon atom suspended in solution, CO_(2ads)~(·-) is readily protonated to form the HCOO~- radical. And HCOO~- as a product rapidly desorbs from the copper surface with a second electron transfer to the adsorbed species.
