Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding of Strain Effects in the Electrochemical Reduction of CO2 : Using Pd Nanostructures as an Ideal Platform.
Hongwen Huang,Huanhuan Jia,Zhao Liu,Pengfei Gao,Jiangtao Zhao,Zhenlin Luo,Jinlong Yang,Jie Zeng +7 more
TL;DR: The combination of molecular dynamic simulations and density functional theory calculations reveals that the tensile strain on the surface of icosahedra boosts the catalytic activity by shifting up the d-band center and thus strengthening the adsorption of key intermediate COOH*.
Journal ArticleDOI
Azide Passivation of Black Phosphorus Nanosheets: Covalent Functionalization Affords Ambient Stability Enhancement.
Yajuan Liu,Pengfei Gao,Taiming Zhang,Xianjun Zhu,Mengmeng Zhang,Muqing Chen,Pingwu Du,Guan-Wu Wang,Hengxing Ji,Jinlong Yang,Shangfeng Yang +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, covalent azide functionalization of two-dimensional (2D) black phosphorus nanosheets (BPNSs) is reported, leading to significant enhancement of the ambient stability of BP as confirmed by UV/Vis spectroscopic studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct Z-Scheme Water Splitting Photocatalyst Based on Two-Dimensional Van Der Waals Heterostructures
TL;DR: In this paper, a 2D metal-free van der Waals (vdW) heterostructure consisting of monolayer BCN and C2N was proposed as a promising candidate for direct Z-scheme photocatalysts for water splitting.
Journal Article
Direct Z-Scheme Water Splitting Photocatalyst Based on Two-Dimensional Van Der Waals Heterostructures
TL;DR: The results prove that the 2D vdW heterostructure family is convincing for a new type of direct Z-scheme photocatalysts searching, based on time-dependent ab initio nonadiabatic molecular dynamics investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atomic-Level Construction of Tensile-Strained PdFe Alloy Surface toward Highly Efficient Oxygen Reduction Electrocatalysis.
Xu Li,Xingxing Li,Chunxiao Liu,Hongwen Huang,Pengfei Gao,Fawad Ahmad,Laihao Luo,Yifan Ye,Zhigang Geng,Guoxiong Wang,Rui Si,Chao Ma,Jinlong Yang,Jie Zeng +13 more
TL;DR: The present work suggests the coupling between multiple surface modulations endows larger room for the rational design of remarkable catalysts, as well as one of the best non-Pt electrocatalysts for ORR in alkaline conditions.
