Journal ArticleDOI

Destruction of chemical warfare agents using metal–organic frameworks

TL;DR: A carefully chosen metal-organic framework (MOF) material featuring high porosity and exceptional chemical stability that is extraordinarily effective for the degradation of nerve agents and their simulants is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Water Oxidation on Pure and Doped Hematite (0001) Surfaces: Prediction of Co and Ni as Effective Dopants for Electrocatalysis

TL;DR: This work performs periodic density functional theory + U calculations for the water oxidation reaction on the fully hydroxylated hematite (0001) surface and shows that moderately charged O anions give rise to smaller overpotentials.
Journal ArticleDOI

First principles scheme to evaluate band edge positions in potential transition metal oxide photocatalysts and photoelectrodes

TL;DR: First principles quantum mechanics calculations of the band edge positions in five transition metal oxides are presented and the feasibility of using these materials in photoelectrochemical cells that produce fuels, including hydrogen, methane, methanol, and formic acid is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interfacing nickel nitride and nickel boosts both electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution and oxidation reactions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report that interface engineering of Ni3N and Ni results in a unique Ni3Ni/Ni electrocatalyst which exhibits exceptional HER/HOR activities in aqueous electrolytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rotationally invariant ab initio evaluation of Coulomb and exchange parameters for DFT+U calculations

TL;DR: The new technique employs a relationship between U and J and the Coulomb and exchange integrals evaluated using the entire set of UHF molecular orbitals (MOs) for the system, eliminating the difficulty in selecting unambiguously the MOs that correspond to localized states.
