Colloidal synthesis of metal chalcogenide nanomaterials from metal–organic precursors and capping ligand effect on electrocatalytic performance: progress, challenges and future perspective
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021-08-02)
Renewable and sustainable functional nanomaterials, which can be employed in alternative green energy sources, are highly desirable. Transition metal chalcogenides are potential catalysts for processes resulting in energy ...
Macroscopic Viscosity of Polymer Solutions from the Nanoscale Analysis
(American Chemical Society, 2021)
The effective viscosity in polymer solutions probed by diffusion of nanoparticles depends on their size. It is a well-defined function of the probe size, the radius of gyration, mesh size (correlation length), activation ...
Titania/Chitosan-Lignin nanocomposite as an efficient photocatalyst for the selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol under UV and visible light
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021)
Developing functional materials from biomass is a significant research subject due to its unique structure, abundant availability, biodegradability and low cost. A series of chitosan–lignin (CL) composites were prepared ...
Theoretical Study of the Photoisomerization Mechanism of All-Trans-Retinyl Acetate
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2021-09-21)
The compound 9-cis-retinyl acetate (9-cis-RAc) is a precursor to 9-cis-retinal, which has potential application in the treatment of some hereditary diseases of the retina. An attractive synthetic route to 9-cis-RAc is based ...
Ambient-temperature porogen-free method for preparation of silica-based macroporous materials
(Elsevier, 2021-12-01)
The presented work focuses on the synthesis of silica-based macroporous aggregates composed of silica nanoparticles using a template-free method. To improve the mechanical strength of the prepared fractal-like aggregates, ...
Effect of Bromine Doping on Charge Transfer, Ion Migration and Stability of the Single Crystalline MAPb(BrxI1−x)3 Photodetector
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021-10-19)
Organic-inorganic halide perovskites (OIHPs) have emerged as a promising semiconductor for the fabrication of efficient optoelectronic devices such as photodetectors (PDs). Among all perovskite composition, the mixed-halide ...
Simulation and Analysis of the Transient Absorption Spectrum of 4-(N,N-Dimethylamino)benzonitrile (DMABN) in Acetonitrile
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2021-09-22)
4-(N,N-Dimethylamino)benzonitrile (DMABN) is a well-known model compound for dual fluorescence—in sufficiently polar solvents, it exhibits two distinct fluorescence emission bands. The interpretation of its transient ...
Bimetallic nanocatalysts supported on graphitic carbon nitride for sustainable energy development: the shape-structure–activity relation
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021-01-26)
The catalytic performance of metal nanoparticles (NPs), including activity, selectivity, and durability, depends on their shape and structure at the molecular level. Consequently, metal NPs of different size and shape, ...
