In this work, the highly selective and stable electrocatalytic reduction of CO<sub>2</sub> to CO on nanostructured Ag electrocatalysts is presented. The Ag electrocatalysts are synthesized by the electroreduction of Ag<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub> formed by in situ anodic-etching of Ag foil in a KHCO<sub>3</sub> electrolyte. After 3 min of this etching treatment, the Ag<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub>-derived nanostructured Ag electrocatalysts are capable of producing CO with up to 92% Faradaic efficienc ...[more]
