Inhibited proton transfer enhances Au-catalyzed CO[subscript 2]-to-fuels selectivity

CO[subscript 2] reduction in aqueous electrolytes suffers efficiency losses because of the simultaneous reduction of water to H[subscript 2]. We combine in situ surface-enhanced IR absorption spectroscopy (SEIRAS) and electrochemical kinetic studies to probe the mechanistic basis for kinetic bifurca...
