About Federico Dattila
I am a physicist interested in renewable energies and sustainability. In particular I am focused in researching new sustainable applications via new materials and methods. So far, I have been involved in alternatives to fossil fuels exploitation, such as photo-electrochemical cells during my Master of Science in Physics and catalysts for CO2 reduction during my Doctorate in Chemistry.

So far ethanol and ethylene have been suggested as twin products during CO2 electroreduction on copper. Here, via in situ surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy and density functional theory, we report a specific intermediate for ethanol production, proposing an update reaction mechanism.
