    Abstract:
    Electroreduction of nitrite (NO2 - ) to valuable ammonia (NH3 ) offers a sustainable and green approach for NH3 synthesis. Here, a Cu3 P@TiO2 heterostructure is rationally constructed as an active catalyst for selective NO2 - -to-NH3 electroreduction, with rich nanosized Cu3 P anchored on a TiO2 nanoribbon array on Ti plate (Cu3 P@TiO2 /TP). When performed in the 0.1 m NaOH with 0.1 m NaNO2 , the Cu3 P@TiO2 /TP electrode obtains a large NH3 yield of 1583.4 µmol h-1  cm-2 and a high Faradaic efficiency of 97.1%. More importantly, Cu3 P@TiO2 /TP also delivers remarkable long-term stability for 50 h electrolysis. Theoretical calculations indicate that intermediate adsorption/conversion processes on Cu3 P@TiO2 interfaces are synergistically optimized, substantially facilitating the conversion of NO2 - -to-NH3 .
