Abstract
The efficient electroreduction of CO2 has received significant attention as it is one of the crucial means to develop a closed-loop anthropogenic carbon cycle. Here, we describe the mechanistic workings of an electrochemically deposited CuSx catalyst that can reduce CO2 to formate with a Faradaic efficiency (FEHCOO
