Recently developed solid-state catalysts can mediate carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) electroreduction to valuable products at high rates and selectivities. However, under commercially relevant current densities of > 200 milliamperes per square centimeter (mA cm −2 ), catalysts often undergo particle agglo...
