TL;DR: High solar photocatalytic activity in ultrathin BiOCl nanosheets with almost fully exposed active {001} facets is achieved and some new and deep-seated insights are provided into how the defects in the exposed active facets affect the solar-driven photoc atalytic property are provided.

TL;DR: The results not only demonstrate the potential of a notable, affordable, and earth-abundant water oxidation electrocatalyst based on ultrathin CoSe2 nanosheets but also open up a promising avenue into the exploration of excellent active and durable catalysts toward replacing noble metals for oxygen electrocatalysis.

TL;DR: The clear-cut evidence in positron annihilation unambiguously confirms the interlayer charge transfer between these Bi/Cu dual vacancies, which results in the significant increase of electrical conductivity with relatively high Seebeck coefficient.

TL;DR: An inorganic graphene analogue, ultrathin WO3·H2O nanosheets with only 2-3 nm thickness, is highlighted as a promising material to construct a high performance and flexible RRAM device.

TL;DR: It is anticipated that enhanced electron-phonon coupling in a quantum confinement system will be a powerful tool for optimizing photothermal conversion of inorganic semiconductors.
