TL;DR: Transition metal carbides (TMCs) and transition metal nitrides (TMNs) have attracted attention as promising electrocatalysts that could replace noble metals of high price and limited supply as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, hexagonal WO3 (hex-WO3) nanowires with high aspect ratio and crystallinity have been prepared for the first time by a microwave-assisted hydrothermal method.

TL;DR: Mesoporous tungsten carbides displayed an excellent solar conversion efficiency as a counter electrode for dye sensitized solar cells under 100 mW cm(-2), AM 1.5G illumination, which corresponded to ca.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported that CuFeO2 and CuO mixed p-type catalysts fabricated via widely employed electroplating of earth-abundant cupric and ferric ions followed by annealing under atmospheric air exhibited onset potentials at +0.9 V vs. RHE in CO2-purged bicarbonate solution and converted CO2 to formate with over 90% selectivity under simulated solar light.

TL;DR: In this article, a mesoporosity and phase of mesoporous WC with hexagonal crystal structure was synthesized by a surfactant-assisted polymer method, which showed higher activity for electrooxidation of methanol than microporous Pt/WC or Pt/W2C as well as commercial Pt/C catalysts.
