Understanding activity and selectivity of metal-nitrogen-doped carbon catalysts for electrochemical reduction of CO2

Inexpensive and selective electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction hold promise for sustainable fuel production. Here, the authors report N-coordinated, non-noble metal-doped porous carbons as efficient and selective electrocatalysts for CO2 to CO conversion.
