TL;DR: Copper nanoparticles are found to undergo an unusual potential-driven nanoclustering degradation pathway during carbon dioxide reduction, a novel outlook on future investigations of stability and degradation reaction mechanisms of nanocatalysts in electrochemical CO2 reduction and, more generally, in electroreduction reactions.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors synthesize well-defined and tunable CuGa nanoparticles (NPs) and demonstrate that alloying Cu with Ga considerably improves the stability of the nanocatalysts.

TL;DR: It is shown that quantitative description of the LS’ morphology of monodisperse nanoparticles can be obtained using small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), measured at multiple contrasts, achieved by either ligand or solvent deuteration.

TL;DR: The investigation of the reaction intermediates in high temperature syntheses of copper nanocrystals by a variety of techniques, including X-ray absorption at a synchrotron source using a customized in-situ cell is reported on.
