Heterogeneous reduction of carbon dioxide by hydride-terminated silicon nanocrystals

Heterogeneous reduction of carbon dioxide by hydride-terminated silicon nanocrystals

Elemental silicon is widely studied for photovoltaic applications. Here, the authors report that hydride-terminated silicon nanocrystals can also function as single component heterogeneous reducing agent for converting gaseous carbon dioxide selectively to carbon monoxide.
