Highly Efficient Activation of HCl Dissociation on Au(111) via Rotational Preexcitation

Rainer Beck

The probability for dissociation of molecules on metal surfaces, which often controls the rate of industrially important catalytic processes, can depend strongly on how energy is partitioned in the incident molecule. There are many example systems where th ...

Oxygen evolution reaction catalyzed by first-row transition metal oxides: stability and mechanism

Aliki Moysiadou

Water splitting offers the opportunity for storing solar energy and, thus, producing carbon-neutral and renewable solar fuels. The process, known as artificial photosynthesis, is limited by the electrocatalytic conversion of water into molecular oxygen. El ...

Impact of alloy disorder on Auger recombination in single InGaN/GaN core-shell microrods

Benoît Marie Joseph Deveaud, Gwénolé Jean Jacopin, Georg Rossbach, Wei Liu

We study the influence of local inhomogeneities on carrier recombination dynamics in single InGaN/GaN core-shell microrods (MRs) by means of time-resolved microphotoluminescence (TRPL) at 10 K. At low carrier density (similar to 10(11) cm(-2)), the carrier ...

Unexpected Indirect Dynamics in Base-Induced Elimination

Eduardo Carrascosa Casado

Base-induced elimination (E2) and bimolecular nucleophilic substitution (S(N)2) are two of the most versatile reactions that are important in preparative organic chemistry. These stereospecific reactions are often found in direct competition with each othe ...

Catalytic synthesis of polyoxymethylene dimethyl ethers (OME): A review

Oliver Kröcher, Alimohammad Bahmanpour, Christophe Jean Baranowski

Polyoxymethylene dimethyl ethers (OME) containing 3-5 CH2O units (OME3-5) are appealing oxygenated fuels, which can be used in diesel engines with only slight fuel system modifications. Their combustion leads to reduced hazardous exhaust gas emissions comp ...
