The pyrovanadates beta -Mn2V2O7 and beta -Cu2V2O7 were previously investigated as photoanode materials for water splitting. Neither of them, however, was found to be sufficiently active. In this work, we predict the properties of these two structurally sim ...

Multinary metal oxides and their heterostructures play a key role as light absorbers in the production of solar chemicals. Synthetic tunability is crucial to understand the impact of composition and structure on the photoelectrochemical performance. Here, ...

The classical nucleation theory (CNT) is the most common theoretical framework used to explain particle formation. However, nucleation is a complex process with reaction pathways which are often not covered by the CNT. Herein, we study the formation mechan ...

Synergistic effects at metal/metal oxide interfaces often give rise to highly active and selective catalytic motifs. So far, such interactions have been rarely explored to enhance the selectivity in the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR). Herei ...

The ability to tune thin oxide coatings by wet-chemistry is desirable for many applications, yet it remains a key synthetic challenge. In this work, we introduce a general colloidal atomic layer deposition (c-ALD) synthesis to grow an alumina shell with tu ...

Understanding nucleation phenomena is crucial across all branches of physical and natural sciences. Colloidal nanocrystals are among the most versatile and tunable synthetic nanomaterials. While huge steps have been made in their synthetic development, syn ...

Copper vanadates have been proposed as promising photoanodes for water-splitting photoelectrochemical cells, but their performance has recently been shown to be severely limited. To understand this behavior, we study the electronic structure and the optica ...
