We used the Griess reagent to calibrate the nitrite concentration with

spectrophotometer (Fig. S6 (a)). Then, the M1.1 thin film was used in an amperometric

test at 0.85 V in stationary 0.1 M KCl containing 30 M of nitrite for 1 hour. The total

volume of test fluid was 5 mL. After the electro catalytic reaction, we found the

absorbance at 523 nm declined from 0.3585 to 0.3495, indicating a nitrite concentration

decline from 30.04 M to 29.098 M. From the charge amount supplied (1.68 × 10-3 C),

the Faradaic efficiency is calculated to be about 54%.
