TL;DR: This work presents a facile solvothermal route to control the synthesis of amorphous and crystalline cobalt iron oxides by controlling the crystallinity of the materials with changing solvent and reaction time and utilizes these materials as multifunctional catalysts for the unification of photochemical and electrochemical water oxidation as well as for the oxygen reduction reaction.

TL;DR: A systematic structural elucidation of the near surface active species of the two remarkably active nickel phosphides Ni12P5 and Ni2P on the basis of extensive analytical, microscopic, and spectroscopic investigations is reported in this paper.

TL;DR: The synthesis of a sol-gel prepared mesoporous graphitic carbon nitride combined with nickel phosphide (Ni2 P) which acts as a superior co-catalyst for efficient photocatalytic H2 evolution by visible light is reported.

TL;DR: Mixed-valent amorphous MnOx catalysts suitable for photochemical and electrochemical water oxidation are prepared by treatment of nanostructured catalytically inactive MnO precursors with (NH4)2Ce(NO3)6 solution for 15 min under vigorous stirring as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report cobalt oxide nanochains as multifunctional catalysts for the electrochemical oxygen evolution reaction (OER) at both alkaline and neutral pH, oxidant-driven, photochemical water oxidation in various pH, and the Electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in alkaline medium.
