Energetic species produced by gas-phase plasmas that impinge on a liquid surface can initiate physicochemical processes at the gas/liquid interface and in phase. The interaction of these energetic with phase chemical reaction pathways referred to as plasma-driven solution electrochemistry (PDSE). There are several processing opportunities challenges presented PDSE. These include potential use PDSE activate difficult other approaches well renewable electricity generate could make liquid-phase...
Boron nitride (BN) is newly introduced as a nonmetal electro-catalyst for the counter electrode of dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC). By applying conductive binder sulfonated poly(thiophene-3-[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy]-2,5-diyl) (s-PT), BN/s-PT composite film was successfully wrapped around each carbon fiber (CF) in flexible cloth (CC) substrate via low-cost drop-coating method. Each CF CC provided one-dimensional electron transfer core, and functioned mesoporous electro-catalytic shell....
Bimetallic alloy nanomaterials exhibit promising properties in various applications. The synthesis of these is often challenging due to the immiscibility metals forming alloy. To overcome this issue, complex synthetic strategies, relying on difficult-to-control reduction conditions, have been utilized, showing that rapid and quenching are required kinetically trap immiscible metal atoms single nanoparticles.
