Nanoconfinement Effects in Electrocatalysis and Photocatalysis
The University of Queensland · China University of Geosciences
Abstract
Recently, the enzyme-inspired nanoconfinement effect has garnered significant attention for enhancing the efficiency of electrocatalysts and photocatalysts. Despite substantial progress in these fields, there remains a notable absence of comprehensive and insightful articles providing a clear understanding of nanoconfined catalysts. This review addresses this gap by delving into nanoconfined catalysts for electrocatalytic and photocatalytic energy conversion. Initially, the effect of nanoconfinement on the thermodynamics and kinetics of reactions is explored. Subsequently, the primary and secondary structures of nanoconfined catalysts are categorized, their properties are outlined, and typical methods for…
