Journal ArticleDOI
Vacancy-enabled N 2 activation for ammonia synthesis on an Ni-loaded catalyst
Tian-Nan Ye,Sangwon Park,Yangfan Lu,Jiang Li,Masato Sasase,Masaaki Kitano,Masaaki Kitano,Tomofumi Tada,Hideo Hosono +8 more
TL;DR: It is reported that nickel-loaded lanthanum nitride (LaN) enables stable and highly efficient ammonia synthesis, owing to a dual-site mechanism that avoids commonly encountered scaling relations and illustrates the potential of using vacancy sites in reaction cycles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ternary intermetallic LaCoSi as a catalyst for N 2 activation
Yutong Gong,Jiazhen Wu,Masaaki Kitano,Junjie Wang,Tian-Nan Ye,Jiang Li,Yasukazu Kobayashi,Kazuhisa Kishida,Hitoshi Abe,Yasuhiro Niwa,Hongsheng Yang,Tomofumi Tada,Hideo Hosono +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, Hosono et al. showed that LaCoSi is an efficient and stable catalyst for N2 activation to produce NH3, which is significantly promoted by shifting the reaction bottleneck from the sluggish N2 dissociation to NH 3 formation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strongly Veined Carbon Nanoleaves as a Highly Efficient Metal‐Free Electrocatalyst
TL;DR: A novel "vein-leaf"-type 3D complex of carbon nanofibers with nitrogen-doped graphene was prepared through a simple thermal condensation of urea and bacterial cellulose, which facilitates both the electron transfer and mass diffusion for electrochemical reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discovery of hexagonal ternary phase Ti2InB2 and its evolution to layered boride TiB
Junjie Wang,Junjie Wang,Tian-Nan Ye,Yutong Gong,Jiazhen Wu,Nanxi Miao,Tomofumi Tada,Hideo Hosono +7 more
TL;DR: It is theoretically demonstrate that the TiB single layer exhibits superior potential as an anode material for Li/Na ion batteries than conventional carbide MXenes such as Ti3C2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anchoring Cobalt Nanocrystals through the Plane of Graphene: Highly Integrated Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Reduction Reaction
TL;DR: In this paper, an ultrastable electrocatalyst with cobalt nanocrystals grown through the plane of graphene subunits of nitrogen-doped graphenes was synthesized via a one-step route.
