... The interfacial boundary between the Sn nanocluster and SnS 2 substrate promoted the hydrogenation of CO 2 to *OCHO intermediate instead of the dissociation of H 2 O to *H, resulting in high selectivity of formate production. 82 Similarly, in situ electrochemical reduction of In 2 O 3 enabled the formation of In/In 2 O 3 heterointerface with stable In-O species, which could regulate the electronic structure of the electrode and accelerate the protonation of CO 2 RR intermediates, thereby improving the electrocatalytic performance. 83 The construction of a bimetallic interface or doped heteroatom is also an effective way to regulate the electronic structure of catalysts. ...

... So far, it has been found that the average particle sizes and conductivity of the sonication-derived layered MXene nanosheets decreased gradually from approximately 600 to 300 nm and from 667 to 2500 S cm −1 , respectively, as the sonication time increased. In contrast, the MXene nanosheets fabricated using the power-focused delamination (PFD) technique showed a much larger average diameter of approximately 4900 nm and an electrical conductivity of 8260 ± 130 S cm −1 (film thickness: 11 µm), as can be seen on Figure 2 [44]. When comparing the electrical conductivity of the MXene materials with that of reported pure MXene films, it becomes apparent that the electrical conductivity of the PFDsynthesized MXene nanosheets was higher than that of the sonication-synthesized MXene nanosheets, highlighting the superiority of the PFD strategy. ...
