Abstract A new type of lanthanum‐based high entropy perovskite oxide (HEPO) electrocatalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction is reported. The B‐site lattices in HEPO consist five consecutive first‐row transition metals, including Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni. Equimolar non‐equimolar electrocatalysts are studied their OER electrocatalytic performance. In HEPOs, concentration one metals doubled individual samples. performances all HEPOs outperform single oxides. optimized La(CrMnFeCo 2 Ni)O 3...
Layer-by-layer gold nanoparticles are used to generate photocurrent in an environmentally-friendly plasmon-sensitized solar cell towing surface plasmon resonance. The efficiency of the photoelectric conversion nanoparticle layers is increased as intensity resonance increases. We also explain experimental results by modeling phenomenon charge separation and formation, relationship between which has potential application cells plasmonic future. a can be improved depositing on cell’s surface....
