A stable ZnCo2O4 cocatalyst for photocatalytic CO2 reduction†
Abstract
Spinel ZnCo2O4 nanostructures have shown great opportunities in energy related areas. However, the applications of ZnCo2O4 for the conversion of CO2 are much less reported. Herein, we present the use of mesoporous ZnCo2O4 nanorods as efficient and high stable cocatalysts for the photochemical reduction of CO2 under mild reaction conditions.
