Abstract
Abstract Photocatalytic CO 2 conversion with H 2 O to carbonaceous fuels is a desirable strategy for CO 2 management and solar utilization, yet its efficiency remains suboptimal. Herein, efficient and durable CO 2 photoreduction is realized over a Ru NPs /Ru‐PHI catalyst assembled by anchoring Ru single atoms (SAs) and nanoparticles (NPs) onto poly(heptazine imide) (PHI) via the in‐plane Ru‐N 4 coordination and interfacial Ru‐N bonds, respectively. This catalyst shows an unsurpassed CO production (32.8 µmol h −1 ), a record‐high apparent quantum efficiency (0.26%) beyond 800 nm, and the formation of the valuable H 2 O 2 . Ru SAs tune PHI's electronic structure to promote in‐plane charge transfer to Ru NPs,…
