Abstract
En 中文
In recent years, substantial effort has been dedicated to improving the intrinsic catalytic activity of catalysts through structural modification, component regulation, and chemical state optimization. However, complexity in the design and construction of catalysts, and the possibility of encountering performance ceilings, may constrain their widespread use. Currently, the introduction of in situ external fields, such as force, electric, magnetic, acoustic, light, and thermal fields, is an attractive approach to enhance the catalytic efficiency of catalysts. Such in situ physical fields feature continuity, reversibility, and controllability, and can exert external force or energy on catalysts, thereby affecting their microscopic structures and electron arrangements, accelerating their mass transfer and reaction kinetics. Mutual coupling and conversion among different external fields are also worth exploring. Various in situ external field effects work in multifaceted ways to promote catalysis in energyenvironment systems by optimizing mass/energy transfer processes, modifying structures, and accelerating catalytic reaction kinetics, thereby significantly improving the catalytic properties of materials. This review summarizes and analyzes the latest developments in external field-assisted methods for boosting catalyst performance. The external field effect, related catalysis mechanism, and external field-enhanced catalysis are highlighted, and we discuss future challenges, countermeasures, and opportunities for external field-assisted catalysis and beyond.
