Abstract

Abstract : Fabrication of ultrathin and highly crystalline GDY film is of vital importance for studies of their intrinsic properties. This work reports the successful application of a liquid/liquid/gel system for confined synthesis of GDY film with high quality in a controllable way. After loading of the Au, the Au/GDY showed excellent performances in a nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR); the highest yield was 4.15 μg cm −2 h −1 with Faraday efficiency (FE) reaching 1.95 %.
