However, the poor stability has limited its large-scale use. Herein, we proposed the “covalence bridge” strategy to effectively connect atomically precise metal NCs and metal-organic frameworks. Benefiting from the covalent linkage, the synthesized UiO-66-NH2-Au25(L-Cys)18 showed outstanding stability after 16 h photocatalysis. Moreover, the covalence bridge created a strong metal-support interaction between the two components and provided an effective charge transport channel and thereby enhanced photocatalytic activity. UiO-66-NH2-Au25(L-Cys)18 displayed an exceptional photocatalytic H2 production rate, which is 21 and 90 times higher than that of UiO-66-NH2/Au25(PET)18 (made by physically combination) and bare UiO-66-NH2, respectively. Thermodynamic and kinetic studies demonstrated that UiO-66-NH2-Au25(L-Cys)18 exhibited higher charge transfer efficiency, lower overpotential of water reduction and activation energy barrier compared with its counterparts.23:T51a,The precise self-assembly of building blocks at atomic level provides the opportunity to achieve clusters with advanced catalytic properties. However, most of the current self-assembled materials are fabricated by 1/2D assembly of blocks. High dimensional (that is, 3D) assembly is widely believed to improve the performance of cluster. Herein, the effect of 3D assembly on the activity for electrocatalytic CO₂ reduction reaction (CO₂ RR) is investigated by using a range of clusters (Au₈ Ag₅₅ , Au₈ Ag₅₇ , Au₁₂ Ag₆₀ ) based on 3D assembly of M₁₃ unit as models. Although three clusters have almost the same sizes and geometric structures, Au₈ Ag₅₅ exhibits the best CO₂ RR performance due to the strong CO₂ adsorption capacity and effective inhibition of H₂ evolution competition reaction. The deep insight into the superior activity of Au₈ Ag₅₅ is the unique electronic structure attributed to the charge segregation. This study not only demonstrates that the assembly mode greatly affects the catalytic activity, but also offers an idea for rational designing and precisely constructing catalysts with controllable activities.
