Atomically precise Au 42 and Cu-doped Au 42 nanorods for CO 2 reduction: the critical role of ligand removal

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Ligand removal profoundly alters Au 42 nanorod activity and selectivity. Cu doping enhances CO 2 reduction in pristine Au 42 but suppresses activity in the –SR removed cluster by shifting the potential-determining step.
