Active sites and mechanism on nitrogen-doped carbon catalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction
(2017)The nature of active sites and mechanism of hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) on the nitrogen-doped carbon catalyst is extensively investigated, by combining physicochemical and electrochemical methods. Two carbon catalysts, ... -
Anion-Cation Double Doped Co3O4 Microtube Architecture to Promote High-Valence Co Species Formation for Enhanced Oxygen Evolution Reaction
(2019)A method for efficiently catalyzing the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) represents a top priority for water electrolysis due to its multistep electron transfer pathway and sluggish kinetics. The OER activity can be promoted ... -
Bismuth oxyhalide based photo-enhanced triboelectric nanogenerators
(2021)Utilizing wide absorption characteristics of a narrow bandgap (~1.8 eV) semiconductor, we report on Bismuth Oxyiodide (BiOI) based photo-enhanced triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG). The potentiostatic deposition of ... -
Confinement of volatile fission products in the crystalline organic electride Cs+(15C5)2•e-
(2022)The efficacy of filters to trap volatile radiotoxic nuclear fission products depends on the thermodynamic stability of these species within the filter material. Using atomic scale modeling based on density functional theory ... -
Electrocatalytic production of hydrogen over highly efficient ultrathin carbon encapsulated S, P co-existence copper nanorods composite
(2020)Electrocatalysis plays a key role in energy conversion processes (such as hydrogen evolution reaction-HER) to several renewable energy technologies developed to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. It is of great importance ... -
Enhanced electrocatalytic overall water splitting over novel one-pot synthesized Ru–MoO3-x and Fe3O4–NiFe layered double hydroxide on Ni foam
(2021)Herein, two novel electrocatalysts are simultaneously grown on Ni foam (NF) through a one-step hydrothermal method. The as-prepared Ru–MoO3-x NF exhibits good performance for HER with low overpotentials of 12 mV at 10 mA ... -
Enhanced Ultrasonic-Assisted Heterogeneous Fenton Degradation of Organic Pollutants over a New Copper Magnetite (Cu-Fe3O4/Cu/C) Nanohybrid Catalyst
(2020)A copper magnetite nanohybrid catalyst (Cu-Fe3O4/Cu/C), abundant of Schottky interfaces and structural defects, with ultrathin encapsulation of graphitic carbon, was synthesized and tested. The catalyst shows enhanced ... -
Mesoporous IrNiTa metal glass ribbon as a superior self-standing bifunctional catalyst for water electrolysis
(2022)Metallic glasses (MGs) only show single activity for water electrolysis and rarely show superior bifunctional activity for both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). In this work, IrNiTa ... -
Nitrogen-vacancy defects in germanium
(2022)While nitrogen doping has been investigated extensively in silicon, there is only limited information on its interaction with vacancies in germanium, despite most point defect processes in germanium being vacancy controlled. ... -
Optical response, lithiation and charge transfer in Sn-based 211 MAX phases with electron localization function
(2022)In this study, optical response, lithiation and charge transfer in existing M2SnC MAX phases with electron localization function (ELF) were investigated for the first time using the density functional theory (DFT). ... -
