Combining Atomic Layer Deposition with Surface Organometallic Chemistry to Enhance Atomic-Scale Interactions and Improve the Activity and Selectivity of Cu-Zn/SiO₂ Catalysts for the Hydrogenation of CO₂ to Methanol

The direct synthesis of methanol via the hydrogenation of CO₂, if performed efficiently and selectively, is potentially a powerful technology for CO₂ mitigation. Here, we develop an active and selective Cu-Zn/SiO₂ catalyst for the hydrogenation of CO₂ by introducing copper and zinc onto...
