Improved Photoelectrochemical Performance of WO3/BiVO4 Heterojunction Photoanodes via WO3 Nanostructuring
(American Chemical Society, 2023-11-15)
WO3/BiVO4 heterojunction photoanodes can be efficiently employed in photoelectrochemical (PEC) cells for the conversion of water into molecular oxygen, the kinetic bottleneck of water splitting. Composite WO3/BiVO4 ...
Vitamins as Active Agents for Highly Emissive and Stable Nanostructured Halide Perovskite Inks and 3D Composites Fabricated by Additive Manufacturing
(Wiley, 2022)
The use of non-toxic and low-cost vitamins like α-tocopherol (α-TCP, vitamin E) to improve the photophysical properties and stability of perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs), through post-synthetic ligand surface passivation, ...
Unusual Spectrally Reproducible and High Q-Factor Random Lasing in Polycrystalline Tin Perovskite Films
(Wiley, 2022)
An unusual spectrally reproducible near-IR random lasing (RL) with no fluctuation of lasing peak wavelength is disclosed in polycrystalline films of formamidinium tin triiodide perovskite, which have been chemically ...
Dual role of graphene as support of ligand-stabilized palladium nanoparticles and carbocatalyst for (de)hydrogenation of N-heterocycles
(Elsevier, 2023-02-18)
The hybrid material composed of palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) functionalized with N-heterocyclic carbene ligands (NHCs) immobilized onto the surface of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) results in an efficient catalytic ...
Accelerated Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) Enzymatic Degradation by Room Temperature Alkali Pre-treatment for Reduced Polymer Crystallinity
(Wiley, 2022-11-07)
Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is the most widely employed plastic for single-use applications. The use of enzymes isolated from microorganisms, such as PETase with the capacity to hydrolyze PET into its monomers, ...
A soft-chemistry route to prepare halide perovskite nanocrystals with tunable emission and high optical performance
(Springer, 2023)
Cesium lead halide perovskites constitute a benchmark family of inorganic perovskites for high performance optoelectronic
