Natural photosynthesis proceeded by sequential water splitting and CO<sub>2</sub> reduction reactions is an efficient strategy for CO<sub>2</sub> conversion. Here, mimicking photosynthesis to boost CO<sub>2</sub>-to-CO conversion is achieved by using plasmonic Bi as an electron-proton-transfer mediator. Electroreduction of H<sub>2</sub>O with a Bi electrode simultaneously produces O<sub>2</sub> and hydrogen-stored Bi (Bi-H<sub>x</sub>). The obtained Bi-H<sub>x</sub> is subsequently used to gener ...[more]
