Abstract Photocatalytic conversion of CO2 into syngas is highly appealing, yet still suffers from the undesirable product yield due to the sluggish carrier transfer and the uncontrollable affinity between catalytic sites and intermediates. Here we report the fabrication of Co sites with tunable electron localization capability on two dimensional (2D) nanosheets assembled three dimensional (3D) ordered macroporous framework (3DOM-NS). The as-prepared Co-based 3DOM-NS catalysts exhibit attractive photocatalytic performances toward CO2 reduction, among which the cobalt sulfide one (3DOM Co-SNS) shows the highest syngas generation rate up to 347.3 μmol h−1 under the irradiation of visible light and delivers a remarkable catalytic activity (1150.7 μmol h−1) in a flow reaction system under natural sunlight. Mechanism studies reveal that the high electron localization of metal sites in 3DOM Co-SNS strengthens the interaction between Co and HCOO* via the orbital interactions of d yz /d xz -p and s-s, thus facilitating the cleaving process of C-O bond. Additionally, the ordered macroporous framework with nanosheet subunits elevates the transfer efficiency of photoexcited electrons, which contributes to its high activity. |
