Highly selective oxidation of methane to formaldehyde on tungsten trioxide by lattice oxygen

Photocatalytic oxidation of methane into formaldehyde in high yield and selectivity remains a grand challenge due to the ineluctable intermediates. Here, we report that a {001}, {010} and {100} facets modified tungsten trioxide photocatalyst enables an intermediate-free oxidation of methane into for...
