Cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) is a known electrocatalyst for the carbon dioxide reduction
reaction (CO2RR) that, when adsorbed onto edge-plane graphite (EPG) electrodes, shows …

Efficient electrocatalytic energy conversion requires devices to function reversibly, that is, to
deliver a substantial current at a minimal overpotential. Redox-active films can effectively …

Carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH), formate dehydrogenase (FDH), hydrogenase
(H2ase), and nitrogenase (N2ase) are crucial enzymatic catalysts that facilitate the …

Ni, Fe‐containing CO dehydrogenases (CODHs) use a [NiFe4S4] cluster, termed cluster C,
to reversibly reduce CO2 to CO with high turnover number. Binding to Ni and Fe activates …

Selective, visible-light-driven conversion of CO2 to CO with a turnover frequency of 20 s–1
under visible light irradiation at 25° C is catalyzed by an aqueous colloidal system …
