Recombination reduction on lead halide perovskite solar cells based on low temperature synthesized hierarchical TiO2 nanorods
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)
Intensive research on the electron transport material (ETM) has been pursued to improve the efficiency of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and decrease their cost. More importantly, the role of the ETM layer is not yet fully ...
Sustainable oxygen evolution electrocatalysis in aqueous 1 M H2SO4 with earth abundant nanostructured Co3O4
(Nature Research, 2022-07-27)
Earth-abundant electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) able to work in acidic working conditions are elusive. While many first-row transition metal oxides are competitive in alkaline media, most of them ...
Mechanistic studies of a lipase unveil effect of pH on hydrolysis products of small PET modules
(Springer Nature, 2023-06-15)
Biocatalysis is a key technology enabling plastic recycling. However, despite advances done in the development of plastic-degrading enzymes, the molecular mechanisms that govern their catalytic performance are poorly ...
Interfacial Mechanism for Efficient Resistive Switching in Ruddlesden-Popper Perovskites for Non-volatile Memories
(American Chemical Society, 2020-01-16)
