Abstract
Electrochemical reduction of CO2 is an important way to achieve carbon neutrality, and much effort has been devoted to the design of active sites. Apart from elevating the intrinsic activity, expanding the functionality of active sites may also boost catalytic performance. Here we designed "negatively charged Ag (nc-Ag)" active sites featuring both the intrinsic activity and the capability of regulating microenvironment, through modifying Ag nanoparticles with atomically dispersed Sn species. Different from conventional active sites (which only mediate the surface processes by bonding with the intermediates), the nc-Ag sites could also manipulate environmental species. Therefore, the sites could not only activate CO2, but also regulate interfacial H2O and CO2, as confirmed by operando spectroscopies. The catalyst delivers a high current density with a CO faradaic efficiency of 97 %. Our work here opens up new opportunities for the design of multifunctional electrocatalytic active sites.

Oxygen-Bridged Indium-Nickel Atomic Pair as Dual-Metal Active Sites Enabling Synergistic Electrocatalytic CO 2 Reduction. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202216326.

Abstract
Single-atom catalysts offer a promising pathway for electrochemical CO2 conversion. However, it is still a challenge to optimize the electrochemical performance of dual-atom catalysts. Here, an atomic indium-nickel dual-sites catalyst bridged by an axial oxygen atom (O-In-N6 -Ni moiety) was anchored on nitrogenated carbon (InNi DS/NC). InNi DS/NC exhibits superior CO selectivity with Faradaic efficiency higher than 90 % over a wide potential range from -0.5 to -0.8 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode (vs. RHE). Moreover, an industrial CO partial current density up to 317.2 mA cm-2 is achieved at -1.0 V vs. RHE in a flow cell. In situ ATR-SEIRAS combined with theory calculations reveal that the synergistic effect of In-Ni dual-sites and O atom bridge not only reduces the reaction barrier for the formation of *COOH, but also retards the undesired hydrogen evolution reaction. This work provides a feasible strategy to construct dual-site catalysts towards energy conversion.

Abstract
Carbon dioxide electroreduction (CO2 RR) is a sustainable way of producing carbon-neutral fuels. Product selectivity in CO2 RR is regulated by the adsorption energy of reaction-intermediates. Here, we employ differential phase contrast-scanning transmission electron microscopy (DPC-STEM) to demonstrate that Sn heteroatoms on a Ag catalyst generate very strong and atomically localized electric fields. In situ attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy (ATR-IR) results verified that the localized electric field enhances the adsorption of *COOH, thus favoring the production of CO during CO2 RR. The Ag/Sn catalyst exhibits an approximately 100 % CO selectivity at a very wide range of potentials (from -0.5 to -1.1 V, versus reversible hydrogen electrode), and with a remarkably high energy efficiency (EE) of 76.1 %.

Abstract
The electrocatalytic CO 2 reduction reaction (ECRR) becomes an effective way to reduce excess CO 2 in the air and a promising strategy to maintain carbon balance. Carbon-supported single-atom catalysts (C-SACs) is a kind of cost savings and most promising catalysts for ECRR. For C-SACs, the key to achieving efficient ECRR performance is to adjusting the electronic structure of the central metal atoms by modulating their microenvironment of the catalysts. Not only the coordination numbers and hetero-atom coordination, but also the regulation of diatomic sites have a great influence on the performance of C-SACs. This review mainly focuses on recent studies for the microenvironment modulation in C-SACs for efficient ECRR. We hope that this review can contribute readers a comprehensive insight in the current research status of C-SACs for ECRR, as well as provide help for the rational design of C-SACs with better ECRR performance.

Abstract
Photocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CO2 RR) is an attractive process to convert CO2 into valuable chemicals. But this reaction is often restricted by the poor mass transfer of CO2 in the liquid phase. Here, we have developed a triphase photocatalytic CO2 RR system by supporting Ag-decorated TiO2 nanoparticles at a gas-water boundary with hydrophobic-hydrophilic abrupt interfacial wettability. Such a triphase system allows the rapid delivery of gas-phase CO2 to the surface of photocatalysts while maintaining an efficient water supply and uncovered active sites. Ag-TiO2 supported at the gas-water boundary showed a CO2 reduction rate of 305.7 μmol g-1 h-1 , without hole scavengers, approximately 8 times higher than the nanoparticles dispersed in the liquid phase. Even using diluted CO2 (10 %) as the reactant, the CO2 RR activity was superior to most reported Ag-TiO2 based photocatalysts using pure CO2 . The findings provide a general strategy to promote the interfacial CO2 mass transfer to improve photoactivity and selectivity.

Abstract
Constructing monodispersed metal sites in heterocatalysis is an efficient strategy to boost their catalytic performance. Herein, a new strategy using monodispersed metal sites to tailor Pt-based nanocatalysts is addressed by engineering unconventional p-d orbital hybridization. Thus, monodispersed Ga on Pt3 Mn nanocrystals (Ga-O-Pt3 Mn) with high-indexed facets was constructed for the first time to drive ethanol electrooxidation reaction (EOR). Strikingly, the Ga-O-Pt3 Mn nanocatalyst shows an enhanced EOR performance with achieving 8.41 times of specific activity than that of Pt/C. The electrochemical in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy results and theoretical calculations disclose that the Ga-O-Pt3 Mn nanocatalyst featuring an unconventional p-d orbital hybridization not only promote the C-C bond-breaking and rapid oxidation of -OH of ethanol, but also inhibit the generation of poisonous CO intermediate species. This work discloses a promising strategy to construct a novel nanocatalysts tailored by monodispersed metal site as efficient fuel cell catalysts.

Abstract
The increasing demands of energy and environmental concerns have motivated researchers to cultivate renewable energy resources for replacing conventional fossil fuels. The modern energy conversion and storage devices required high efficient and stable electrocatalysts to fulfil the market demands. In previous years, we are witness for considerable developments of scientific attention in Metal-organic Frameworks (MOFs) and their derived nanomaterials in electrocatalysis. In current review article, we have discussed the progress of optimistic strategies and approaches for the manufacturing of MOF-derived functional materials and their presentation as electrocatalysts for significant energy related reactions. MOFs functioning as a self-sacrificing template bid different benefits for the preparation of metal nanostructures, metal oxides and carbon-abundant materials promoting through the porous structure, organic functionalities, abundance of metal sites and large surface area. Thorough study for the recent advancement in the MOF-derived materials, metal-coordinated N-doped carbons with single-atom active sites are emerging candidates for future commercial applications. However, there are some tasks that should be addressed, to attain improved, appreciative and controlled structural parameters for catalytic and chemical behavior.

Abstract
Traditional regulation methods of active sites have been successfully optimized the performance of electrocatalysts, but seem unable to achieve further breakthrough in the catalytic activity. Unlike the conventional viewpoint of focusing on single active site, the concept of local microstructure active zone is more comprehensive and new suits of methods to regulate reaction zone for electrocatalytic reactions are developed accordingly. The local microstructure active zone refers to the zone with high catalytic activity formed by the interaction between active atoms and neighboring coordination atoms as well as the surrounding environment. Instead of the traditional single active atom site, the active zone is more suitable for the actual electrochemical reaction process. According to this concept, the activity of the electrocatalysts can be coordinated by multiple active atoms. This strategy is beneficial to understand the relationship between material, structure and catalysis, which realizes the scientific design and synthesis of high performance electrocatalysts. This review provides the research progress of this strategy in electrocatalytic reactions, with the emphasis on their important applications in oxygen evolution reaction, urea oxidation reaction and carbon dioxide reduction.

Abstract
Direct conversion of bulk metal or nanoparticles into metal single atoms under thermal pyrolysis conditions is a highly efficient and promising strategy to fabricate single-atom catalysts (SACs). Usually, nitrogen-doped carbon is used as the anchoring substrate to capture the migrating metal ion species at high temperatures, and stable isolated SACs with nitrogen coordination are formed during the process. Herein, we report unexpected oxygen-coordinated metal single-atom catalysts (Fe-, Co-, Ni-, Mn-SACs) with high loadings (above 10 wt %) through direct transformation of metal oxide nanoparticles (Fe-, Co-, Ni-, Mn-NPs) in an inert atmosphere at 750 °C for 2 h. The atomic dispersion of metal single atoms and their coordinated structures were confirmed by aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy and X-ray absorption fine structures. In addition, the dynamic process of nanoparticles to atoms was directly observed by in situ transmission electron microscopy. The as-prepared Fe SAC exhibited high activity and superior selectivity for catalytic oxidation of benzene to phenol with hydrogen peroxide.

Abstract
Dual-atom site catalysts (DACs) have emerged as a new frontier in heterogeneous catalysis because the synergistic effect between adjacent metal atoms can promote their catalytic activity while maintaining the advantages of single-atom site catalysts (SACs), like 100 % atomic utilization efficiency and excellent selectivity. Herein, a supported Pd2 DAC was synthesized and used for electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2 RR) for the first time. The as-obtained Pd2 DAC exhibited superior CO2 RR catalytic performance with 98.2 % CO faradic efficiency at -0.85 V vs. RHE, far exceeding that of Pd1 SAC, and coupled with long-term stability. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that the intrinsic reason for the superior activity of Pd2 DAC toward CO2 RR was the electron transfer between Pd atoms at the dimeric Pd sites. Thus, Pd2 DAC possessed moderate adsorption strength of CO*, which was beneficial for CO production in CO2 RR.
