Journal ArticleDOI
Millisecond synthesis of CoS nanoparticles for highly efficient overall water splitting
Yanan Chen,Shaomao Xu,Shuze Zhu,Rohit J. Jacob,Glenn Pastel,Yanbin Wang,Yiju Li,Jiaqi Dai,Fengjuan Chen,Hua Xie,Boyang Liu,Yonggang Yao,Lourdes Salamanca-Riba,Michael R. Zachariah,Teng Li,Liangbing Hu +15 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an ultrafast synthesis technique for transition metal chalcogenide nanoparticles assisted by high temperature treatment is presented. And the authors demonstrate that cobalt sulfide and few-layer graphene core-shell nanoparticles embedded in RGO nanosheets exhibit remarkable bifunctional electrocatalytic activity and stability for overall water splitting, which is comparable to commercial 40 wt.% platinum/carbon (Pt/C) electro catalysts.

Kun Fu,Zhen Liu,Yonggang Yao,Zhengyang Wang,Bin Zhao,Wei Luo,Jiaqi Dai,Steven D. Lacey,Lihui Zhou,Fei Shen,Kim Myeongseob,Laura A. Swafford,Louise C. Sengupta,Liangbing Hu +13 more
TL;DR: This work successfully demonstrated the first transient rechargeable batteries based on dissoluble electrodes including V2O5 as the cathode and lithium metal as the anode as well as a biodegradable separator and battery encasement (PVP and sodium alginate, respectively).
Journal ArticleDOI
In Situ “Chainmail Catalyst” Assembly in Low-Tortuosity, Hierarchical Carbon Frameworks for Efficient and Stable Hydrogen Generation
