Size-dependent activity and selectivity of carbon dioxide photocatalytic reduction over platinum nanoparticles
Light-driven carbon dioxide conversion into fuels provides a nature-inspired strategy to combat climate change, but how materials do so remains a challenge. Here, the authors prepare metal–semiconductor composites and find platinum-nanoparticle size controls fuel selectivity and activity.
