Exploring catalyst reconstruction under the electrochemical condition is critical to understanding the catalyst structure-activity relationship as well as to design effective electrocatalysts. Herein, a PbF2 nanocluster is synthesized and its self-reconstruction under the CO2 reduction condition is...
