A Pd atom Mo<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>2</sub> exhibits excellent stability and high activity to CO oxidation.
Water splitting is widely acknowledged as an efficient method for hydrogen production. In recent years, significant research efforts have been directed towards developing cost-effective electrocatalysts. However, the management of bubbles formed on electrode surface during electrolysis has largely overlooked. These can impede active sites, resulting in decreased catalytic performance and stability, especially at high current densities. Consequently, this impediment affects energy conversion...
Successful engineering of functional tissues requires the development three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds that can provide an optimum microenvironment for tissue growth and regeneration. A new class 3D with a high degree organization unique topography is fabricated from polyacrylamide hydrogel. The hydrogel matrix molded by inverted colloidal crystals made 104 μm poly(methyl methacrylate) spheres. scaffold be described as hexagonally packed 97 spherical cavities interconnected network channels....
Single-atom catalysts (SACs) often present outstanding activity due to their high ratio of low-coordinated metal atoms and can be applied the activation strong chemical bonds such as C[triple bond, length m-dash]O.

Mo 2 C has been demonstrated as an active and durable catalyst for electrocatalytic nitrate-to-ammonia conversion (NRA), attributed to the surface-terminated sites selectively absorb NO 3 − promote NRA energetics.
Abstract Electrochromic/electrofluorochromic (EC/EFC) dual‐functional materials with electrochemically switchable colors and fluorescence offer the possibility of developing reflection/emission dual‐mode integrated displays in one device. However, unlike easily adjustable multi‐color EC properties, EFC properties tunable intensity are relatively broad, while those color emission rare. Herein, two terpyridine‐attached viologen derivatives Tpy‐Vio‐1 Tpy‐Vio‐2 designed synthesized for exploring...
Abstract Recently, stimuli‐responsive color/fluorescence dual‐switchable materials have attracted great attention, whereas most of them respond to monostimulus. Therefore, it is essential design two or multi‐stimuli‐responsive and develop their applications. Viologens, which the electric potential, light irradiation, pH, heat, are suitable for construction two‐ materials. Moreover, easily modified chemical structure, tunable electronic properties, excellent electrochemical characteristics...
Low limiting potential, high product selectivity, strong visible light absorbance and satisfactory band edge positions make Cu<sub>2</sub>S monolayers a very compelling photocatalyst for CO<sub>2</sub> reduction.
Effectively controlling the selectivity of C 2 oxygenates is desirable for electrocatalytic CO reduction. Copper catalyst has been considered as most potential reducing to products, but it still suffers from low selectivity, high overpotential, and competitive hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Here, we propose a design strategy introduce second metal that weakly binds H functional ligand provides bonds protons achieve effective suppression HER on Cu(100) surface simultaneously. Seven metals...
