Gold nanoelectrodes of varied size: Transition to molecule-like charging
Shaowei Chen,Roychelle S. Ingram,Michael J. Hostetler,Jeremy J. Pietron,Royce W. Murray,Royce W. Murray,T. Gregory Schaaff,Joseph T. Khoury,Marcos M. Alvarez,Robert L. Whetten +9 more
TL;DR: A transition from metal-like double-layer capacitive charging to redox-like charging was observed in electrochemical ensemble Coulomb staircase experiments on solutions of gold nanoparticles of varied core size, consistent with new near-infrared spectroscopic data showing an emerging gap between the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied orbitals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanosized Carbon Particles From Natural Gas Soot
TL;DR: In this paper, carbon nanoparticles were prepared by refluxing the combustion soot of natural gas in nitric acid and the resulting particles exhibited an average diameter of 4.8 ± 0.6 nm, and the crystalline lattices were consistent with graphitic carbons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mesoporous N-Doped Carbons Prepared with Thermally Removable Nanoparticle Templates: An Efficient Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Reduction Reaction
TL;DR: In this article, thermally removable nanoparticle templates were used for the fabrication of self-supported N-doped mesoporous carbons with a trace amount of Fe (Fe-N/C).
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent developments of carbon-based electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction
Weijia Zhou,Weijia Zhou,Jin Jia,Jia Lu,Linjing Yang,Dongman Hou,Guoqiang Li,Shaowei Chen,Shaowei Chen +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the research progress in the development of carbon-based electrocatalysts toward hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in acid electrolytes throughout the past few years.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon-Supported Single Atom Catalysts for Electrochemical Energy Conversion and Storage.
TL;DR: The leading strategies for the preparation of single atoms of select transition metals supported on carbon substrates are summarized, and the electrocatalytic performance of the resulting samples for the various reactions is discussed.
