Active Sites and Structure−Activity Relationships of Copper-Based Catalysts for Carbon Dioxide Hydrogenation to Methanol

TL;DR: In this paper, the active sites and structure-activity relationships for methanol synthesis from a stoichiometric mixture of CO2 and H2 were investigated for a series of coprecipitated Cu-based catalysts with temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Xray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and N2O decomposition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Second-harmonic generation and crystal structure of the diamond-like semiconductors Li(2)CdGeS(4) and Li(2)CdSnS(4).

TL;DR: A modified Kurtz nonlinear optical powder technique was used to determine the SHG responses of both compounds, and Li(2)CdSnS(4) displayed a type I phase-matchable response of approximately 70x alpha-quartz, while Li
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis, Characterization, Electronic Structure, and Photocatalytic Behavior of CuGaO2 and CuGa1–xFexO2 (x = 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20) Delafossites

TL;DR: The photochemical reduction of CO2 to chemicals, such as CO and CH4, is a promising carbon management approach that can generate revenue from chemical sales to help offset the costs associated with the use of carbon management technologies as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrocatalytic Oxygen Evolution with an Atomically Precise Nickel Catalyst

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a combination of experimental and computational techniques to study the electrochemical oxygen evolution reaction (OER) at a supported organometallic nickel complex with a precisely known crystal structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

α-Li2ZnGeS4: A Wide-Bandgap Diamond-like Semiconductor with Excellent Balance between Laser-Induced Damage Threshold and Second Harmonic Generation Response

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore new nonlinear optical materials with high laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) in the infrared (IR) region for the development of technologies relying on tunable laser sys...
