A Strong Magnetic Field Alters the Activity and Selectivity of the CO2RR by Restraining C–C Coupling

Abstract: As an external field, a magnetic field can change the electrocatalytic activity of catalysts through various effects. Among them, electron spin polarization on the catalyst surface has attracted much attention. Herein, we investigate the sensitive response behavior of a Cu2O nanocubes to an in situ magnetic field. Under a 3 T strong magnetic field, the total transferred electron quantity in IT test (−1.1 VRHE) and the current density in the polarization curve increase by 28.7% and 54.7%, respectively, while th… Show more

“…Hence, increasing the amount of singlet radical pairs leads to an enhancement in the efficiency for obtaining P. The spin evolution from triplet to singlet could be promoted by applying a magnetic field, thus enhancing the production of P. 31,62 It is worth noting that magnetic fields can improve the ERCO 2 not only by regulating the spin states of radical pairs involved in the electrocatalytic reactions but also by inducing spin polarization of the catalyst's surface. 75 According to this approach, the spin-polarized surface that results from the application of magnetic fields alters the interaction between catalyst's surface atoms and the intermediate compounds. Consequently, the selectivity of the ERCO 2 products is affected.…”

“…Consequently, the selectivity of the ERCO 2 products is affected. 75 This strategy represents a promising method to enhance CO 2 conversion toward the desired products; further details can be found in the work of Wang et al 75 Magnetically Enhanced CO 2 Conversion to Formic Acid/Formate. Due to the scarcity of studies on the use of magnetic fields in ERCO 2 , only four articles have investigated the magnetically enhanced conversion of CO 2 to formic acid/ formate so far to the best of our knowledge.…”

“…Essential in many chemical and physical phenomena and processes, the impact of external fields has attracted noticeable attention lately in the literature [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] because it can influence the molecular structure, [17][18][19][20][21][22] chemical reactivity, [23][24][25][26][27][28] and other electronic properties. [29][30][31][32][33][34] In a previous study, we investigated the impact of uniform external electric fields on molecular acidity and aromaticity propensities for the benzoic acid molecule.…”
