Sulfide-based photocatalysts (PC) are promising materials for efficiently producing hydrogen (H2). This chapter aims to provide a detailed survey of the recent advancements in sulfide-based photocatalysts and emphasize their enhanced…
Anthropogenic activities have led to a substantial increase in carbon dioxide (CO2), a greenhouse gas (GHG), contributing to heightened concerns of global warming. In the last decade alone CO2 emissions increased by 2.0 ppm/yr. globally. In…
Hydrogen is deemed as an attractive energy carrier alternative to fossil fuels, and it is required to store for many applications. Physisorption is one of the promising ways to store H$_2$ for its practical applications. Covalent Organic…
Some micro-algae are sensitive to light intensity gradients. This property is known as phototaxis: the algae swim toward a light source (positive phototaxis). We use this property to control the motion of micro-algae within a Poiseuille…
