Abstract:
Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are the most efficient and selective electrocatalysts for the heterogenous CO 2 reduction to CO, along with MoS 2 , WS 2 , and their diselenides.[1, 2] Here we show CO electrosynthesis using atomic layer deposited TiS 2 with a maximum Faraday yield of 64 % at an overpotential of less than 0.4V at 5 mA cm -2 . We provide mechanistic insights on the electrosynthesis of C=O by the insitu ATR-FTIR spectroelectrochemistry. Operando studies reveal that the reason of high CO selectivity is due to the CO 2 binding on active disulfide planes. Paired with mild synthesis protocol, reasonable stability and low-cost production, semi-metallic TiS 2 promises satisfying applicability in CO 2 electroreduction and utilization technology. [1] P.
