Abstract
En 中文
Electrocatalysis is a pivotal technology for achieving carbon neutrality, promising to revolutionize energy utilization and industrial feedstock pathways. Nevertheless, the persistent reliance on costly noble-metal catalysts, coupled with challenges in efficiency and operational stability, presents a central challenge to their large-scale application. Overcoming these limitations necessitates the rational design and precise synthesis of advanced catalytic materials. This review focuses on catalyst engineering through atomic-scale confinement—an efficient strategy to tailor electronic structures and modulate charge transport for breakthrough performance. The properties induced by confinement, electron transfer at confined interfaces, and gated charge transfer mechanisms are covered. The review concludes by proposing rational design strategies and future research directions for confinement-engineered electrocatalysts.
