Journal ArticleDOI
Solar water splitting in a molecular photoelectrochemical cell
Leila Alibabaei,M. Kyle Brennaman,Michael R. Norris,Berç Kalanyan,Wenjing Song,Mark D. Losego,Javier J. Concepcion,Robert A. Binstead,Gregory N. Parsons,Thomas J. Meyer +9 more
TL;DR: A hybrid strategy for solar water splitting based on a dye sensitized photoelectrosynthesis cell using a derivatized, core–shell nanostructured photoanode with the core a high surface area conductive metal oxide film––indium tin oxide or antimony tin oxide––coated with a thin outer shell of TiO2 formed by atomic layer deposition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanism of Water Oxidation by the μ-Oxo Dimer [(bpy)2(H2O)RuIIIORuIII(OH2)(bpy)2]4+
TL;DR: In this article, the kinetics and mechanism of CeIV oxidation of the water oxidation catalyst [(bpy)2(H2O)RuIIIORuIII(OH2)2]4+ (1, RuIIIOR uIII) have been investigated by UV−visible measurements with application of global analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metallopolymer photochemistry. Photophysical, photochemical, and photoelectrochemical properties of (bpy)/sub 2/Ru/sup II/ < sites bound to poly(4-vinylpyridine). [Visible radiation]
Jeffrey M. Calvert,Jonathan V. Caspar,Robert A. Binstead,T. David Westmoreland,Thomas J. Meyer +4 more
TL;DR: The photochemical and photophysical properties of the polymer-bound chromophore Ru(bpy)/sub 2/(PVP) have been investigated in homogeneous solution in this article, where lifetime and quantum yield data are interpreted in terms of models of excited state behavior previously proposed for analogous monomeric poly(pyridyl) complexes of Ru(II).
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidation of hydroquinones by [(bpy)2(py)RuIV(O)]2+ and [(bpy)2(py)RuIII(OH)]2+. Proton-coupled electron transfer
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the pH-dependent rate laws for the oxidations of hydroquinone, 2-chlorohydroquinone and 2,6-dichlor-hydrogen-quinone quinones follow pH dependent rate laws.
Journal ArticleDOI
Base-enhanced catalytic water oxidation by a carboxylate–bipyridine Ru(II) complex
Na Song,Javier J. Concepcion,Robert A. Binstead,Jennifer A. Rudd,Aaron K. Vannucci,Christopher J. Dares,Michael K. Coggins,Thomas J. Meyer +7 more
TL;DR: Dramatic rate enhancements with added buffer bases for a robust Ru(II) polypyridyl catalyst with a calculated half-time for water oxidation of ∼7 μs in 1.0 M phosphate are reported.
