摘要
Microenvironments of the catalytic center,which play a vital role in adjusting electrocatalytic CO_(2) reduction reaction(ECO_(2) RR)activity,have received increasing attention during the past few years.However,controllable microenvironment construction and the effects of multi-microenvironment variations for improving ECO_(2) RR performance remain unclear.Herein,we summarize the representative strategies for tuning the catalyst and local microenvironments to enhance ECO_(2) RR selectivity and activity.The multifactor synergetic effects of microen-vironment regulation for enhancing CO_(2) accessibility,stabilizing key intermediates,and improving the performance of ECO_(2) RR catalysts are discussed in detail,as well as perspectives on the challenges when investigating ECO_(2) RR microenvironments.We anticipate that the discussions in this review will inspire further research in microenvironment engineering to accelerate the development of the ECO 2 RR for practical application.
