Fabrication of high efficient solar cells is critical for photovoltaic application. The bandgap-graded absorber layer can not only drive carriers efficient collection but also improve the light harvesting. However, it...
A hydrophobic core–shell architecture was constructed to control local H2O availability on the surface of the copper-based materials, which could provide a maximum generation rate of −434 mA cm−2 towards CH4.
The photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting efficiency is profoundly restricted by the limited light harvesting, rapid charge recombination, and sluggish water oxidation kinetics, in which the construction of a photoelectrode requires...
High‐safety and low‐cost aqueous zinc‐ion batteries (ZIBs) are an exceptionally compelling technology for grid‐scale energy storage, whereas the corrosion, hydrogen evolution reaction and dendrites growth of Zn anodes plague their...
Correction for ‘Challenges for the future of tandem photovoltaics on the path to terawatt levels: a technology review’ by Filipe Martinho, Energy Environ. Sci., 2021, 14, 3840–3871, DOI: 10.1039/D1EE00540E.
Photo-assisted Li-organic batteries provide an attractive approach for solar energy conversion and storage, while the challenge lies in the design of high-efficiency organic cathodes. Herein, a charge-separated and redox-active C60@porous...
We report a universal phase reconfiguration phenomenon and a doping strategy to enhance the activity of multivalent nickel sulfides in hydrogen evolution. Based on these, a life-time dynamic structure-activity correlation has been established.
Oxidation and reduction of the oxide ions in the bulk of cathode materials is a potential route towards increasing the energy density of Li-ion batteries. Here, we present neutron PDF...
The photocatalytic overall water splitting (POWS) reaction using particulate catalysts is considered as an ideal approach for capturing solar energy and storing it in the form of hydrogen, however, current...
Bicarbonate electrolysers convert carbon capture solutions into chemicals and fuels and bypass the need for energy-intensive CO2 recovery. Porous metal electrodes are more effective than composite carbon electrodes for this type of electrolyser.
