Electrocatalysts for bifunctional oxygen reduction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are commonly studied under hydrodynamic conditions, rendering the use of binders necessary to ensure the mechanical stability of the electrode…
Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrolysis, as an important reaction involved in water splitting and rechargeable metal-air battery, has attracted increasing attention for clean energy generation and efficient energy storage. Nickel/iron…
The presence of small hematite (Fe2O3) clusters at low coverage on titanium dioxide (TiO2) surface has been observed to enhance photocatalytic activity, while excess loading of hematite is detrimental. We conduct a comprehensive density…
The efficiency of $H_2$ production via water electrolysis is typically limited to the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER). As such, significant emphasis has been placed upon improving the rate of OER through the anode catalyst. More…
Nanotubed titanic acid (H2Ti2O4(OH)2) was prepared from nanotubed sodium titanate (Na2Ti2O4(OH)2) by an ion exchange reaction in a pH=1 HCl solution. The effect of annealing temperature on the morphology, structure and photocatalytic…
The photocatalytic production of hydrogen peroxide (H$_2$O$_2$) from water is a promising strategy for solar-to-chemical energy conversion. Herein, we investigate the effect of metal-free heteroatom doping (B, O, P, and S) on the…
Cu-based electrocatalysts exhibits enormous potential for electrochemical CO2 conversion to added-value products. However, high selectivity, specially towards C2+ products, remains a critical challenge for its implementation in commercial…
Titanium dioxide is one of the most widely investigated oxides. This is due to its broad range of applications, from catalysis to photocatalysis to photovoltaics. Despite this large interest, many of its bulk properties have been sparsely…
Alkaline water electrolysis is considered a commercially viable option for large-scale hydrogen production. However, this process still faces challenges due to the high voltage (>1.65 V at 10 mA cm$^{-2}$) and its limited stability at…
