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.
An ultrafast, continuous CO2 capture process driven by moisture gradient and electric field with low energy consumption to capture and concentrate CO2 from dilute sources.
The use of hydrogen as a renewable fuel has been stymied by our inability to produce it cleanly and economically. The conventional solar thermochemical approach considers a two-step redox cycle...
The structural reconstruction dynamics and the real HER/OER active species of cobalt phosphides/chalcogenides were revealed through operando XAS/Raman spectroscopy.
To remain below 2◦C of warming, most IPCC pathways call for active CO2 removal (CDR). On geological timescales, ocean uptake regulates atmospheric CO2 concentration, with two homeostats driving CO2 uptake:...
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...
