Abstract: High level of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration is considered one of the main causes of global warming. Electrochemical conversion of CO2 into valuable chemicals and fuels has promising potential to be implemented into practical and sustainable devices. In order to efficiently realize this strategy, one of the biggest efforts...

Electrochemical reducing carbon dioxide (CO 2 RR) to ethylene is one of the most promising strategies to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and simultaneously produce high value-added chemicals. However, the lack of catalysts with excellent activity and stability limits the large-scale application of this technology. In this work, we fabricated the gr...

The development of innovative antimicrobial materials is crucial in thwarting infectious diseases caused by microbes, as drug-resistant pathogens are increasing in both number and capacity to detoxify the antimicrobial drugs used today. An ideal antimicrobial material should inhibit a wide variety of bacteria in a short period of time, be less or n...

Cuprous oxide has been conceived as a potential alternative to traditional organic hole-transport layers in hybrid halide perovskite-based solar cells. Device simulations predict record efficiencies using this semiconductor, but experimental results do not yet show this trend. More detailed knowledge about the Cu2O/perovskite interface is mandatory...

The excessive intake of chlorpromazine (CPZ) adversely affects human health profoundly, leading to a series of severe diseases such as hepatomegaly and dyskinesia. The rapid and precise detection of CPZ in real samples is of great significance for its effective surveillance. Herein, a versatile and sensitive electrochemical sensor was developed for...

SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes the disease COVID-19, remains viable on solids for periods of up to 1 week, so one potential route for human infection is via exposure to an infectious dose from a solid. We have fabricated and tested a coating that is designed to reduce the longevity of SARS-CoV-2 on solids. The coating consists of cuprous oxide (...

AbstractA procedure for the expedient synthesis of well-characterized Cu(I) oxide nanoparticles (Cu2ONPs) from Cu(II) salts by employing Rice (Oryza sativa) as a cheap and ready source of reducing as well as stabilizing agent has been demonstrated. The judicious choice of rice as a catalyst has helped in the symbiotic combination of two events: viz...

Clinical studies demonstrated that continued exposure to copper oxide-embedded textiles, such as pillowcases, significantly reduces depth of facial wrinkles and skin sagging and enhances skin elasticity. Study the mechanisms by which the exposure to copper ions improve the well-being of the skin. Human skin explants, cultured ex-vivo, were exposed ...

AbstractDirect phenol–catechol conversion has been realized as a result of the solid-phase reaction of 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol with cuprous oxide under high pressure and shear deformation on the Bridgman anvils. The yield of 3,5-di-tert-butylcatechol in this reaction was about 85%. When cupric oxide was used in the solid-phase process, oxidative co...

Excavations at the Roman villa of Noheda (Spain) revealed the remains of an exceptionally elaborate fourth-century floor mosaic that contains a surprisingly large number of glass tesserae, representing a broad spectrum of colors. This paper presents the results of the chemical (LA-ICP-MS) and microstructural analyses (SEM-EDS, XRPD) of 420 glass te...
