Abstract

Two-dimensional (2D) materials are attractive catalysts for the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide reaction (eCO₂RR) by virtue of their tunable atomic structures, abundant active sites, enhanced conductivity, suitable binding affinity to carbon dioxide and/or reaction intermediates, and intrinsic scalability. Herein, recent advances in 2D catalysts for the eCO₂RR are reviewed. Structural features and properties of 2D materials that contribute to their advanced electrocatalytic properties are summarized, and strategies for enhancing their activity and selectivity for the eCO₂RR are reviewed. Prospects and challenges of applications of 2D catalysts for the eCO₂RR on an industrial scale are highlighted.
