High-entropy materials have emerged as a promising class of catalysts, driven by their high configurational entropy originating from structural disorder in single-phase multicomponent systems. Despite their potential, the catalytic…
The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond is a solid-state spin defect that has been widely adopted for quantum sensing and quantum information processing applications. Typically, experiments are performed either with a single isolated NV…
Single-atom catalysts (SACs) with metal-nitrogen-carbon (M-N-C) structures are widely recognized as promising candidates in oxygen reduction reactions (ORR). According to the classical Sabatier principle, optimal 3d metal catalysts, such as…
Reaction currents in chemical networks usually increase when increasing their driving affinities. But far from equilibrium the opposite can also happen. We find that such negative differential response (NDR) occurs in reaction schemes of…
This work describes the ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) in alkaline medium using low-palladium nanoparticle electrocatalysts modified by Fe3O4 nano-octahedra and SnO2 nanorods. Operation studies on an alkaline direct ethanol fuel cell…
Electrochemical ammonia synthesis via lithium-mediated nitrogen dissociation has demonstrated exceptional Faradaic efficiency at ambient conditions, but its viability is limited by a high energy cost of ~9.12 eV per NH3 via lithium…
Nonlinear optical (NLO) response in terms of reverse saturable absorption (RSA) has been exploited extensively for optical limiting. Here, we experimentally demonstrate that flower-like hybrid nanostructures of NiCo2O4 and Multiwall Carbon…
Bubble formation in electrochemical system often hinders reaction efficiency by reducing active surface area and obstructing mass transfer, yet the mechanisms governing their nanoscale nucleation dynamics and impact remains unclear. In this…
Ternary nitrides are of growing technological importance, with applications as semiconductors, catalysts, and magnetic materials; however, new synthetic tools are needed to advance materials discovery efforts. Here, we show that…
We report transport properties and particle current rectification operation in a double-stranded tight-binding ladder network within non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) formalism that can easily be generalized in multi-stranded systems.…
Accelerating the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is a main subject of electrocatalysis research.A critical step of ORR is the formation of the hydroperoxyl functional group (OOH*) intermediate. In this study, we investigate the influence of…
Although ammonia is an abundant molecule commonly observed towards the dense interstellar medium, it has not yet been established whether its main formation route is from gas-phase ion-molecule reactions or grain-surface hydrogen additions…
Through direct nanoparticle nucleation and growth on nitrogen doped, reduced graphene oxide sheets and cation substitution of spinel Co3O4 nanoparticles, a manganese-cobalt spinel MnCo2O4/graphene hybrid was developed as a highly efficient…
Active sites and catalytic mechanism of nitrogen-doped graphene in oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) have been extensively studied but are still inconclusive, partly due to the lack of an experimental method that can detect the active sites.…
Parallel robots (PRs) offer the potential for safe human-robot collaboration because of their low moving masses. Due to the in-parallel kinematic chains, the risk of contact in the form of collisions and clamping at a chain increases.…
New Radio (NR) Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) Sidelink (SL), an integral part of the 5G NR standard, is expected to revolutionize the automotive and rail industries by enabling direct and low-latency exchange of critical information between…
In this report, the preparation of Fe-carbon nitride (CN)-based electrocatalysts (ECs) with a 'core-shell' morphology for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is described. The ECs consist of spherical XC-72R carbon nanoparticles, the…
Photocatalytic nitrogen fixation from air directly under sunlight can contribute significantly to carbon neutralization. It is an ideal pathway to replace the industrial Haber Bosch process in future. A Fe-doped layered WO$_3$ photocatalyst…
Atomic layer deposition (ALD) provides a promising approach for deposition of ultrathin low-defect-density tunnel barriers, and it has been implemented in a high-vacuum magnetron sputtering system for in situ deposition of ALD-Al2O3 tunnel…
The challenge of synthesizing graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with atomic precision is currently being pursued along a one-way road, based on the synthesis of adequate molecular precursors that react in predefined ways through self-assembly…
