In this study, we successfully designed the partially oxidized cobalt nanoparticles coated by the nitrogendoped carbon layer(Co@NC) of 2-8 nm via a facile method and then interspersed with different amount of Pt nanoparticles. The Co@NC decorated with 1 wt% Pt exhibits the best ability for COreduction to CHand a CHproduction rate of 14.4 μmol·g·his achieved. It is worth noting that the system is carried out under low-concentration CO(400 ppm) circumstance without any sacrificial agent, which could be meaningful to the design of catalysts for atmospheric COreduction.展开更多
Imidazolate-based ZIF-8 catalysts M@ZIF-8 (M = Au NR, Au@Ag NR, or Au@PtAg NRT;NR = nanorod, NRT = nanorattle), were assembled.

Au NRs acted as the core for the epitaxial growth of the Ag shell, and oxidative etching of Au@Ag NRs led to Au@PtAg NRTs with K2PQI4 aqueous soluti on. All metal nano rods (MNRs) and metal nano rattles (MNRTs) were well dispersed and fully en capsulated in ZIF-8. Au @ PtAg NRTs encapsulated in ZIF-8 could lead to enhanced stability and selectivity for catalytic applications, combining the advantages of ZIF-8 (tailorable porosity) with the high surface area and improved optical sensitivity of rod-shaped NRTs. The catalyst Au @ PtAg@ZIF-8 exhibited efficient catalytic activity and CO selectivity for the gas-phase photoreduction of CO2 with H2O.展开更多
