Greenhouse gas “al dente” : Exposure of the nonpolar ZnO(10 $\bar 1$ 0) surface to CO 2 at 95 K leads to the formation of an unusual tridentate carbonate species (see picture; C green, O red, Zn gray). Use of several experimental techniques (for example, high‐resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS)) and theoretical calculations provides insight into the activation of CO 2 on the surface.
