Recently, the research team of Tierui Zhang from the Institute of Chemistry and Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, published a Mini-Review titled "Innovative and Sustainable Approaches to Aerobic ...

Noble metals are important photocatalysts due to their ability to convert light into chemical energy. Hot electrons, generated via the non-radiative decay of localized surface plasmons, can be ...

The photoelectrochemical (PEC) overall water-splitting reaction (OWS) has been fully developed in the past decade, especially in the new catalysts, characterization methods and reaction mechanisms.

Researchers can make the oxidation reactions used in the synthesis of organic molecules cleaner by hitching photovoltaics to electrochemistry. The idea is simple and yet it has huge implications. To ...

A simple new technique could boost the efficiency of some key chemical processing, by up to a factor of 100,000, researchers report. The reactions are at the heart of petrochemical processing, ...

The last ten years have seen the complete development of the Photo Electro Chemical (PEC) overall water-splitting reaction (OWS), particularly with regard to new catalysts, characterization techniques ...
