Adsorption of a molecule or group with an atom which is less electronegative than oxygen (O) and directly interacting with the surface is very relevant to development of PtM (M=3d-transition metal) catalysts with high activity. Here, we…
Charge transfer between metal nanoparticles and the supported TiO2 surface is primarily important for catalytic applications as it greatly affects the catalytic activity and the thermal stability of the deposited nanoparticles on the…

Antimony shows promise as a two-dimensional (2D) mono-elemental crystal, referred to as antimonene. When exposed to ambient conditions, antimonene layers react with oxygen, forming new crystal structures, leading significant changes in…
Antimonene is a novel two-dimensional (2D) semiconducting material of group V elements proposed in a recent literature [Zhang et al., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 54, 1-5 (2015)]. Using first-principles calculations, we demonstrated that the…
Using mechanical exfoliation combined with a controlled double step transfer procedure we demonstrate that single layers of antimony can be readily produced. These flakes are not significantly contaminated upon exposure to ambient…
We systematically evaluate the prospects of a novel 2D nanomaterial, phosphorene, as anode for Na-ion batteries. Using first-principles calculations, we determine the Na adsorption energy, specific capacity and Na diffusion barriers on…
