A hybrid niobium-based oxide with bio-based porous carbon as an efficient electrocatalyst in photovoltaics: a general strategy for understanding the catalytic mechanism

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Ziqi Wang, Cheng Wang

Developing a high-performance catalyst and establishing a catalytic mechanism for understanding the catalytic activity are crucial to new generation photovoltaic technology. In this work, we present a feasible and general route to synthesize a bio-based po ...

Required growth facilitators propel axon regeneration across complete spinal cord injury

Grégoire Courtine, Mark Andrew Anderson, Nicholas David James, Cheng Wang, Sabry Leonardo Barlatey, Michael V. Sofroniew

Transected axons fail to regrow across anatomically complete spinal cord injuries (SCI) in adults. Diverse molecules can partially facilitate or attenuate axon growth during development or after injury1,2,3, but efficient reversal of this regrowth failure ...

A universal route to efficient non-linear response via Thomson scattering in linear solids

Gabriel Aeppli, Cheng Wang, Joe Martin Bailey, Junjie Li, Ji Zhou

Non-linear materials are cornerstones of modern optics and electronics. Strong dependence on the intrinsic properties of particular materials, however, inhibits the at-will extension of demanding non-linear effects, especially those second-order ones, to w ...

In situ dynamic observations of perovskite crystallisation and microstructure evolution intermediated from [PbI6](4-) cage nanoparticles

Michael Graetzel, Cheng Wang, Lichen Zhao

Hybrid lead halide perovskites have emerged as high-performance photovoltaic materials with their extraordinary optoelectronic properties. In particular, the remarkable device efficiency is strongly influenced by the perovskite crystallinity and the film m ...

Selective degradation of wood lignin over noble-metal catalysts in a two-step process

Paul Joseph Dyson, Ning Yan, Cheng Wang, Chenxu Zhao, Chen Zhao

Direct conversion of lignin into alkanes and methanol was carried out in a two-step process (hydrogenolysis and hydrogenation) involving initial treatment of white birch wood sawdust with H2 in dioxane/water/phosphoric acid using carbon supported Ru, Pd, R ...

A Thrifty Universal Construction

Rachid Guerraoui, Cheng Wang

A universal construction is an algorithm which transforms any sequential implementation of an object into a concurrent implementation of that same object in a linearizable and wait-free manner. Such constructions require underlying low-level universal shar ...
