Because of the advantage of producing multi-carbon products, copper is widely applied in CO2RR. In 2011, Zheng and coworkers carried out CO oxidation reaction on Pt1 / FeOx, and first observed the presence of single metal atom with HAADF-STEM. Recently, our collaborator used similar strategy to design a single-atom catalyst for CO2RR, and found that placing a single Cu atom on a metal substrate with partial palladium oxide has a high selectivity for CO2 electrochemical reduction to ethanol. Consequently, we simulate the possible reaction mechanism to rationalize ethanol in such a system of CO2RR. Palladium can selectively produce CO during CO2RR. On a single-atom Cu catalyst on Pd, CO2 could be reduced to CO by Pd support, subsequently transferred to Cu site for "carbon-carbon coupling" and "hydrogenation" processes. We propose that the rate-determining step could be the step of "CHO coupling with COH on the Cu-Pd(100) junction ” and "CHO coupling with CO on Cu-Pd(111) junction”.理論計算單原子催化劑二氧化碳還原Theoretical calculationsingle atom catalystCO2 reduction以理論計算探討以金屬為基材的單原子催化劑上進行二氧化碳電化學還原成乙醇的反應機制Computational Exploration of Electrochemical CO2 Reduction to Ethanol on the Metal Supported Single-Atom Catalyst
