Elucidating the activity, mechanism and application of selective electrosynthesis of ammonia from nitrate on cobalt phosphide

Cobalt phosphide is an effective electrocatalyst for NO 3 − electroreduction into NH 3 . Phosphorus is crucial for stabilizing the active phase and optimizing energy barriers, and Co 4p orbitals directly participate in the nitrate reduction.
