Organic semiconductor (OSC) nanoparticles (NPs) are promising for numerous applications including greener organic photovoltaics and heterogeneous photocatalysts for solar H2 production. Single component or mixed bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) OSC NPs are common ...
Cuprous oxide (Cu2O) materials are the most promising copper-based catalysts for electrochemical nitrate (NO3[sbnd]) reduction to ammonia (NH3). Nevertheless, adsorption for N[sbnd]containing intermediates (NO3[sbnd], NO2[sbnd], etc.) is too[sbnd]strong, ...
The well-defined catalytic conversion of dinitrogen (N2) to ammonia (NH3) by molecular complexes is of fundamental interest and important for providing an atomic-level understanding of reactivity that can be related to industrial and biological nitrogen-fi ...
In the realm of photoconversion of CO2 into high-value chemicals, the importance of near-infrared (NIR) light is gradually gaining recognition. Relative to ultraviolet (UV) and visible light, NIR light (700-2500 nm), accounting for ca. 50% of solar energy, ...
Antimony selenide (Sb2Se3) has recently been intensively investigated and has achieved significant advancement in photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. In this work, a facile one-step hydrothermal method for the preparation of Sn-doped Sb2Se3 photoca ...
The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is the bottleneck reaction of water splitting, which can be used to generate green hydrogen from renewable electricity. Cobalt iron oxyhydroxides (CoFeOxHy) are among the most active OER catalysts in alkaline medium. How ...
In this work, we report on the effect of anodization time on the morphology, optical, and photocatalytic properties of TiO2 nanotubes (NTs) allowing bacterial inactivation and two organic pollutant degradation under low-intensity solar-simulated light. Sca ...
