Advances in Biomimetic Photoelectrocatalytic Reduction of Carbon Dioxide (Adv. Sci. 31/2022)

Photoelectrocatalysis Mimicking natural photosynthesis, emerging photoelectrocatalysis provides a promising way for CO2 conversion to value-added products. In article number 2203941 by Nianjun Yang, Guohua Zhao, and co-workers, five typical strategies for constructing biomimetic photoelectric functional interfaces are summarized focusing on CO2 adsorption, activation and conversion. The interfacial electron transfer and proton coupling are also discussed to clarify the possible reaction pathways.
