A reduced polyoxometalate-encapsulated organo cobalt modified phosphate framework for improving photocatalytic reduction of CO₂

Abstract

The photoconversion of CO2 into energy carriers by visible light is critical for preserving the natural carbon balance and fostering sustainability. Exploring high-performance and low-cost photocatalysts is an important key...

Dual-nodes bridged cobalt-modified Keggin-type polyoxometalate-based chains for highly efficient CO2 photoconversion

“…Thus, researchers are increasingly interested in POM-based inorganic–organic hybrid materials that combine POMs with metal ions and organic ligands, given that POMs contain a large number of oxygen atoms on their outer surface, which can coordinate with metal ions or organic units to generate novel compounds. 31–37 Yao and co-workers synthesized the first POM in 2019 comprising a nuclear Co cluster that had effective photocatalytic activity for CO 2 reduction. The maximum values of TON and TOF exhibited were 10 492 and 0.29 s −1 , respectively.…”
