Engineering the interfacial orientation of MoS₂/Co₉S₈ bidirectional catalysts with highly exposed active sites for reversible Li-CO₂ batteries.

ABSTRACT: Sluggish CO₂ reduction reaction (CO₂RR) and evolution reaction (CO₂ER) kinetics at cathodes seriously hamper the applications of Li-CO₂ batteries, which have attracted vast attention as one kind of promising carbon-neutral technology. Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have shown great potential as the bidirectional catalysts for CO₂ redox, but how to achieve a high exposure of dual active sites of TMDs with CO₂RR/CO₂ER activities remains a challenge. Herein, a bidirectional catalyst that vertically growing MoS₂ on Co₉S₈ supported by carbon paper (V-MoS₂/Co₉S₈@CP) has been designed with abundant edge as active sites for both CO<
