Abstract
CO2 conversion In article number 2100185, Yimin Xuan and co-workers introduced NiCo alloys derived from AlMg hydrotalcite for photothermal synergetic CO2 conversion with CH4 with ultrahigh light-to-fuel efficiency of 33.8% and low carbon deposition rate. The ultrahigh efficiency is attributed to the high solar absorptance of NiCo alloys, the unique synergistic catalysis of NiCo active sites, and the photo-enhanced reactant activation.
