Abstract

Copper oxide-derived Cu catalysts are known to exhibit enhanced energetic efficiencies and selectivities towards the reduction of carbon dioxide to commercially vital C2 products such as ethylene (C2H4). However, the cause of this selectivity is not fully understood. In this work, we elucidated a fu...
