The introduction of 4-methoxyphenethyl-amine at the PSK/SnO2 interface, combined with IOR and Co-Ni3S2 catalyst on the perovskite photoanode, demonstrates the remarkable onset potential of −0.2 VRHE and stability of 225 h, maintaining ≈90% of the initial photocurrent density. The efficient unbiased hydrogen production is successfully achieved with...

Electrochemical water splitting offers high-purity hydrogen production, driven by thermodynamically favorable oxidation reactions. It aids in pollutant degradation and chemical synthesis via small-molecule selection. Tailored electrocatalyst design strategies that focus on current density and selectivity are critical to success. This perspective aims...

This study comprehensively clarified the crucial correlation between crystalline disorder, charge-carrier dynamics in mixed perovskite, and solar cell performance. Incorporating a trace amount of MAPbBr3 additive effectively mitigates and reduces the structural disorder of FAPbI3, resulting in excellent charge-carrier dynamics and improved photoelectric...

For the first time the precise control of the arrangement of Ir2P clusters epitaxially grown on Ru2P hollow nanotubes is demonstrated, which offers efficient catalytic synergy to the complex, multistep reaction pathway of the sluggish alkaline HER process, exhibiting a record-high AEMWE performance. Abstract Efficient and durable electrocatalysts...

Using operando X-ray resonant photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations, it is found that the pseudocapacitive charging of copper facilitates the electrocatalytic electroreduction of CO2 at the same time that the barrier for the H-H coupling is increased. The pseudocapacitive charging is ruled by the super abundant vacancy,...

Schematic diagram of the types and examples of solid-state electrolytes used in lithium–air batteries. Abstract Solid-state lithium–air batteries (SSLABs) have become the focus of next-generation advanced batteries due to their safety and high energy densities. Current research on SSLABs is mainly centered on solid-state electrolytes (SSEs)....
