제목 Theoretical insight into effect of cation–anion pairs on CO2 reduction on bismuth electrocatalysts
초록 This study presents theoretical insight into the mechanism of the CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) to formic acid (HCOOH) on Bi (012) surfaces in the presence of alkali metal cations (M+: Cs+, K+, and Li+) and/or halide anions (X−: Cl−, Br−, and I−) using density functional theory (DFT). The adsorption energy (Eads) and work function (Wf) of the anions increases with decreasing anion size (i.e., Cl−>Br−>I−). On the other hand, the larger the cation size is, the higher is the Eads (i.e., Li+<K+<Cs+) but the lower is the Wf (i.e., Cs+<K+<Li+). In the presence of the cation–anion pairs (M+/X−), Eads of the pairs on hydrated Bi (Bi-2H) becomes more negative than that in the cases of anions or cations alone. Such a synergistic effect of the mixed ions is also observed for the work function values. The pathway involving *OCHO requires less energy for all M+/X− pairs than that of *COOH intermediates involved pathway.
