Abstract
Tuning electrocatalytic reduction of carbon monoxide to achieve valuable ethanol product with high performance is interesting yet challenging. Here, the authors design a hydrophobic Cu/Cu2O sheet catalyst showing a FE of 68.8% and partial current density of 111 mA cm−2 for CO reduction to ethanol.
