Non-noble metal-based catalysts with efficient catalytic activities for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) are critical for energy conversion devices, including fuel cells and metal-air batteries. In this work, novel hafnium phosphide-reduced graphene oxide nanosheets (HfP-rGO NS) and hafnium disulfide-reduced g...

Here, we synthesized copper(I) oxide and titanium dioxide nanotubes (TNTs) heterojunctions (HJs) by a photoreduction method using a low-power UV lamp without involving any additional steps, such as chemical reduction, surfactant, or protection agents. Transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman scattering, X-ray photoelectron spectro...

NiFe2O4 nanoparticles with a high concentration of oxygen vacancies were synthesized via a solvothermal route. The morphology and oxygen vacancies of the catalyst was changed by adjusting the ratio of ethylene glycol (EG) in the mixture solvent. Water was used as a hydrogen source, the thermal catalytic performance of NiFe2O4 was up to 357.6 μmol g...

Different morphologies of SrTiO3/TiO2 heterostructures like nanocubes, nanoparticles, nanospheres, and nanofibers were synthesized via a facile hydrothermal process using TiO2 as both a template and precursor in Sr(OH)2 solution. Their structure, interface and composition can be rationally tailored by simply adjusting the Sr(OH)2/TiO2 (Sr/Ti) mole ...

In this paper, we use density functional theory with dispersion correction functional (DFT-D) as implemented in the Vienna ab initio simulation package in order to investigate hydrogen adsorption on graphene (GH) and fluorographene (GF). The adsorption sites at different surface coverage rates were studied to determine the most stable configuration...

Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) have promising applications in future nanoelectronics, chemical sensing and electrical interconnects. Although there are quite a few GNR nanofabrication methods reported, a rapid and low-cost fabrication method that is capable of fabricating arbitrary shapes of GNRs with good-quality is still in demand for using GNRs for...

composites (30 wt% MgFe 2 O 4) with a small addition of BaGeO 3 as a sintering additive were synthesized by a one-pot Pechini-like sol-gel process. Nano-crystalline composite powders with a crystallite size of about 10 nm were obtained after reaction at 700 C for 1 h. Magnetic investigations suggest that the nano-powder is in its superparamagnetic ...
