Electrochemical reduction of N<sub>2</sub> to NH<sub>3</sub> provides an alternative to the Haber-Bosch process for sustainable, distributed production of NH<sub>3</sub> when powered by renewable electricity. However, the development of such process has been impeded by the lack of efficient electrocatalysts for N<sub>2</sub> reduction. Here we report efficient electroreduction of N<sub>2</sub> to NH<sub>3</sub> on palladium nanoparticles in phosphate buffer solution under ambient conditions, whi ...[more]
