Abstract
Converting CO2 into valuable chemicals can provide a new path to mitigate the greenhouse effect, achieving the aim of "carbon neutrality" and "carbon peaking". Among numerous electrocatalysts, Zn-based materials are widely distributed and cheap, making them one of the most promising electrocatalyst materials to replace noble metal catalysts. Moreover, the Zn metal itself has a certain selectivity for CO. After appropriate modification, such as oxide derivatization, structural reorganization, reconstruction of the surfaces, heteroatom doping, and so on, the Zn-based electrocatalysts can expose more active sites and adjust the d-band center or electronic structure, and the FE and stability of them can be effectively improved, and they can even convert CO2 to multi-carbon products. This review aims to systematically describe the latest progresses of modified Zn-based electrocatalyst materials (including organic and inorganic materials) in the electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction reaction (eCO2RR). The applications of modified Zn-based catalysts in improving product selectivity, increasing current density and reducing the overpotential of the eCO2RR are reviewed. Moreover, this review describes the reasonable selection and good structural design of Zn-based catalysts, presents the characteristics of various modified zinc-based catalysts, and reveals the related catalytic mechanisms for the first time. Finally, the current status and development prospects of modified Zn-based catalysts in eCO2RR are summarized and discussed.

Abstract
Strategies to efficiently activate CO2 by strongly inhibiting the competitive hydrogen evolution reaction process are highly desired for practical applications of the electrochemical CO2 reduction technique. Here, we assembled a core-shell In@InOxHy architecture on carbon black by one-step reduction of NaBH4 as a CO2-to-formate catalyst with high selectivity. The stable CO2-to-formate reaction originates from the creation of steritic frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) on the InOxHy shell with In-OVs (OVs, oxygen vacancies) Lewis acid, and In-OH Lewis base. During CO2 reduction, the electrochemically stable FLPs are capable of first capturing and stabilizing protons to protonate FLPs to In-H Lewis acid and In-OH2 Lewis base due to its strong steric electrostatic field; then, CO2 is captured and activated by the protonated FLPs to selectively produce formate. Our results demonstrated that FLPs can be created on the surface of oxyphilic single-metal catalysts efficient in accelerating CO2 reduction with high selectivity.

Abstract
The electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) is a promising strategy to alleviate excessive CO2 levels in the atmosphere and produce value-added feedstocks and fuels. However, the synthesis of high-efficiency and robust electrocatalysts remains a great challenge. This work reports the green preparation of surface-oxygen-rich carbon-nanorod-supported bismuth nanoparticles (SOR Bi@C NPs) for an efficient CO2RR toward formate. The resultant SOR Bi@C NPs catalyst displays a Faradaic efficiency of more than 91% for formate generation over a wide potential range of 440 mV. Ex situ XPS and XANES and in situ Raman spectroscopy demonstrate that the Bi-O/Bi (110) structure in the pristine SOR Bi@C NPs can remain stable during the CO2RR process. DFT calculations reveal that the Bi-O/Bi (110) structure can facilitate the formation of the *OCHO intermediate. This work provides an approach to the development of high-efficiency Bi-based catalysts for the CO2RR and offers a unique insight into the exploration of advanced electrocatalysts.

Abstract
Excessive reliance on fossil fuels has led to the release and accumulation of large quantities of CO2 into the atmosphere which has raised serious concerns related to environmental pollution and global warming. One way to mitigate this problem is to electrochemically recycle CO2 to value-added chemicals or fuels using electricity from renewable energy sources. Cu is the only metallic electrocatalyst that has been shown to produce a wide range of industrially important chemicals at appreciable rates. However, low product selectivity is a fundamental issue limiting commercial applications of electrochemical CO2 reduction over Cu catalysts. Combining copper with other metals that actively contribute to the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction process can selectively facilitate generation of desirable products. Alloying Cu can alter surface binding strength through electronic and geometric effects, enhancing the availability of surface confined carbon species, and stabilising key reduction intermediates. As a result, significant research has been undertaken to design and fabricate copper-based alloy catalysts with structures that can enhance the selectivity of targeted products. In this article, progress with use of alloying strategies for development of Cu-alloy catalysts are reviewed. Challenges in achieving high selectivity and possible future directions for development of new copper-based alloy catalysts are considered.

Abstract
Converting carbon dioxide into high-value-added formic acid as a basic raw material for the chemical industry via an electrochemical process under ambient conditions not only alleviates greenhouse gas effects but also contributes to effective carbon cycles. Unfortunately, the most commonly used Pd-based catalysts can be easily poisoned by the in situ formed minor byproduct CO during the carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CRR) process. Herein, we report a facile method to synthesize highly uniformed PdAg alloys with tunable morphologies and electrocatalytic performance via a simple liquid synthesis approach. By tuning the molar ratio of the Ag+ and Pd2+ precursors, the morphologies, composition, and electrocatalytic activities of the obtained materials were well-regulated, which was characterized by TEM, XPS, XRD, as well as electrocatalytic measurements. The CRR results showed that the as-obtained Pd3Ag exhibited the highest performance among the five samples, with a faradic efficient (FE) of 96% for formic acid at -0.2 V (vs. reference hydrogen electrode (RHE)) and superior stability without current density decrease. The enhanced ability to adsorb and activate CO2 molecules, higher resistance to CO, and a faster electronic transfer speed resulting from the alloyed PdAg nanostructure worked together to make great contributions to the improvement of the CRR performance. These findings may provide a new feasible route toward the rational design and synthesis of alloy catalysts with high stability and selectivity for clean energy storage and conversion in the future.

Abstract
Developing robust electrocatalysts and advanced devices is important for electrochemical carbon dioxide (CO2 ) reduction toward the generation of valuable chemicals. We present herein a carbon-confined indium oxide electrocatalyst for stable and efficient CO2 reduction. The reductive corrosion of oxidative indium to the metallic state during electrolysis could be prevented by carbon protection, and the applied carbon layer also optimizes the reaction intermediate adsorption, which enables both high selectivity and activity for CO2 reduction. In a liquid-phase flow cell, the formate selectivity exceeds 90 % in a wide potential window from -0.8 V to -1.3 V vs. RHE. The continuous production of ca. 0.12 M pure formic acid solution is further demonstrated at a current density of 30 mA cm-2 in a solid-state electrolyte mediated reactor. This work provides significant concepts in the parallel development of electrocatalysts and devices for carbon-neutral technologies.

Here, we present an efficient strategy for controlling the ECO2 RR product by modifying the surface of nano-Cu2 O, i.e., by controlling the exposed facets via a reductant-controlled method to achieve the highest C2 H4 selectivity (Faradic efficiency=74.1 %) for Cu2 O-based catalysts in neutral electrolytes, and introducing a well-suited metal-organic framework (MOF) coating on the surface of nano-Cu2 O to obtain syngas completely with an appropriate H2 :CO ratio. Detailed mechanism and key intermediate have been illustrated by DFT calculations. Our systematic strategy is expected to control the ECO2 RR product, improve the selectivity, and provide a reliable method for CO2 management and the green production of important carbon resources.

Abstract
Heterostructure engineering plays a vital role in regulating the material interface, thus boosting the electron transportation pathway in advanced catalysis. Herein, a novel Bi2O3/BiO2 heterojunction catalyst was synthesized via a molten alkali-assisted dealumination strategy and exhibited rich structural dynamics for an electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (ECO2RR). By coupling in situ X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy measurements, we found that the as-synthesized Bi2O3/BiO2 heterostructure can be transformed into a novel Bi/BiO2 Mott-Schottky heterostructure, leading to enhanced adsorption performance for CO2 and *OCHO intermediates. Consequently, high selectivity toward formate larger than 95% was rendered in a wide potential window along with an optimum partial current density of -111.42 mA cm-2 that benchmarked with the state-of-the-art Bi-based ECO2RR catalysts. This work reports the construction and fruitful structural dynamic insights of a novel heterojunction electrocatalyst for ECO2RR, which paves the way for the rational design of efficient heterojunction electrocatalysts for ECO2RR and beyond.
