摘要

Rapid recombination of photogenerated carriers and weak driving forces to inject hot electrons are critical bottlenecks in solar-driven ammonia borane hydrolysis. Herein, aided by machine learning, plasmon polarization-induced multi-field coupling is developed to enhance ammonia borane hydrolytic activity. The reconstructed surface unsaturated Moδ+ active sites exhibit well activity and high stability over 100 hours in AB hydrolysis, which deliver a turnover frequency up to 5806 min-1, representing competitiveness compared to non-noble and noble-metal based catalysts ever reported. It is verified that the polarized electric field facilitates carrier separation through incorporating polarization components (Ov and -OH), thereby promoting electron accumulation around Moδ+ active sites. Meanwhile, the local electric field enables highly delocalized hot electrons through plasmon oscillation, thus lowering the reaction barrier between Moδ+ and AB. In this work, the hot electrons are efficiently channeled via an enhanced feedback pathway, facilitating their transfer into B-H antibonding orbitals toward boosted AB hydrolysis.
