Abstract

A ruthenium doped Cu2O electrocatalyst with multi-layered hollow spherical structure has been proposed for effiecient nitrite conversion to ammonia through electrocatalysis. The unique structure provides nanoconfinement effects, which, together with the tailored electronic properties, synergistically contribute to the reduced energy barriers, resulting in high electrocatalytic efficiency and NH₃ selectivity.
