Noble metals are important photocatalysts due to their ability to convert light into chemical energy. Hot electrons, generated via the non-radiative decay of localized surface plasmons, can be ...

The massive consumption of fossil fuels all over the world has led to excessive CO 2 emissions into atmosphere, which has caused serious environmental issues and energy crisis. Electrochemical CO 2 ...

Researchers can make the oxidation reactions used in the synthesis of organic molecules cleaner by hitching photovoltaics to electrochemistry. The idea is simple and yet it has huge implications. To ...

oxidation is the loss of electrons reduction is the gain of electrons All of the half equations occurring at the cathode show electrons being gained, so they all show reduction taking place. The ...

Batteries have been around for a long time and new ones are constantly being developed in academia or industry. This article takes a look at redox flow batteries and the applications they are commonly ...
