Distributed optical fiber sensing: Review and perspective
Ping Lu,Nageswara Lalam,Mudabbir Badar,Bo Liu,Bo Liu,Benjamin Chorpening,Michael P. Buric,Paul R. Ohodnicki +7 more
TL;DR: This work is focused on a review of three types of distributed optical fiber sensors which are based on Rayleigh, Brillouin, and Raman scattering, and use various demodulation schemes, including optical time-domain reflectometry, optical frequency-domainreflectometry, and related schemes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Active Sites and Structure−Activity Relationships of Copper-Based Catalysts for Carbon Dioxide Hydrogenation to Methanol
Sittichai Natesakhawat,Sittichai Natesakhawat,Jonathan W. Lekse,John P. Baltrus,Paul R. Ohodnicki,Bret H. Howard,Xingyi Deng,Christopher Matranga +7 more
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
Size-dependent photocatalytic reduction of CO2 with PbS quantum dot sensitized TiO2 heterostructured photocatalysts
Congjun Wang,Congjun Wang,Robert L. Thompson,Robert L. Thompson,Paul R. Ohodnicki,John P. Baltrus,Christopher Matranga +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the sensitization of TiO2 catalysts using PbS quantum dots (QDs) is investigated, which leads to the size dependent photocatalytic reduction of CO2 at frequencies ranging from the violet to the orange-red edge of the electromagnetic spectrum (λ ∼ 420 to 610 nm).
Journal ArticleDOI
SAW Sensors for Chemical Vapors and Gases.
TL;DR: This review provides a general overview on the fundamental aspects and some major advances of Rayleigh wave-based SAW sensors in sensing chemicals in a gaseous phase and suggests some appropriate sensing approaches for particular applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient Electrochemical CO2 Conversion Powered by Renewable Energy
Douglas R. Kauffman,Jay Thakkar,Rajan Siva,Christopher Matranga,Paul R. Ohodnicki,Chenjie Zeng,Rongchao Jin +6 more
TL;DR: All electrochemical CO2 conversion systems will produce a net increase in CO2 emissions if they do not integrate with renewable-energy sources, catalyst loading vs activity trends can be used to tune process rates and product distributions, and state-of-the-art renewable- energy technologies are sufficient to power larger-scale, tonne per day CO2 Conversion systems.
