    • openAccess   Revealing the Nature of Defects in α-Ag2WO4 by Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy: A Joint Experimental and Theoretical Study 

      Assis, Marcelo de; Ponce, Miguel Adolfo; Gouveia, Amanda; de Souza, Daniele; Costa, João Paulo; Teodoro , Vinícius; Galvão Gobato, Yara; Andres, Juan; Macchi, Carlos; Somoza, Alberto; Longo, Elson American Chemical Society (2021)
      Electron–matter coupling is a fascinating way to tune and modify the properties of materials. In this work, we present a study on the formation and nature of vacancy-like defects in α-Ag2WO4 samples synthesized in a water ...
    • openAccess   Towards an efficient selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfones by NiWO4 and α-Ag2WO4 

      Assis, Marcelo de; Gouveia, Amanda; Ribeiro, Lara Kelly; Ponce, Miguel Adolfo; Churio, Maria Sandra; Oliveira, Osvaldo N.; Mascaro, Lucia; Longo, Elson; Llusar, Rosa; Guillamón, Eva; Andres, Juan Elsevier (2023-02-25)
      Chemoselective oxidation of sulfides to sulfones under mild conditions is relevant for industry, but challenging owing to the need to establish catalysis mechanisms and optimize several experimental parameters. Herein, we ...
