Mo₂TiC₂ MXene-Supported Ru Clusters for Efficient Photothermal Reverse Water-Gas Shift.

ABSTRACT: Driving metal-cluster-catalyzed high-temperature chemical reactions by sunlight holds promise for the development of negative-carbon-footprint industrial catalysis, which has yet often been hindered by the poor ability of metal clusters to harvest and utilize the full spectrum of solar energy. Here, we report the preparation of Mo₂TiC₂ MXene-supported Ru clusters (Ru/Mo₂TiC₂) with pronounced broadband sunlight absorption ability and high sintering resistance. Under illumination of focused sunlight, Ru/Mo₂TiC₂ can catalyze the reverse water-gas shift (RWGS) reaction to produce carbon monoxide from the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide and renewable hydrogen with enhanced activity, selectivity, and stability compared to their nano
