Supported Bimetallic Trimers Fe₂M@NG: Triple-Atom Catalysts for CO₂ Electroreduction.

ABSTRACT: Excessive accumulation of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has become a serious environmental problem due to the increasing consumption of fossil fuels in modern society. Reasonably reducing CO₂ in the atmosphere has become a new research hotspot. Electrocatalytic CO₂ reduction reaction (CO₂RR) offers an appealing strategy to reduce the atmospheric CO₂ concentration and to produce value-added chemicals simultaneously. In this paper, two-dimensional (2D) N-decorated graphene (NG)-supported bimetallic trimers (Fe₂M@NG) were designed as triple-atom catalysts (TACs). Theoretical calculations showed that Fe₂M@NG can effectively activate CO₂, and among the 23 TACs examined, Fe₂Ir@NG not only has a good cataly
