Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis, Functionalization, and Biomedical Applications of Multifunctional Magnetic Nanoparticles
TL;DR: This review outlines the synthesis of MNPs of metal oxides and alloy sand then focuses on recent developments in the fabrication of MFMNPs of core/shell, dumbbell, and composite hybrid type and summarizes the general strategies applied for NP surface functionalization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Platinum−Gold Nanoparticles: A Highly Active Bifunctional Electrocatalyst for Rechargeable Lithium−Air Batteries
Yi-Chun Lu,Zhichuan J. Xu,Hubert A. Gasteiger,Shuo Chen,Kimberly Hamad-Schifferli,Yang Shao-Horn +5 more
TL;DR: PtAu nanoparticles were shown to strongly enhance the kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in rechargeable Li-O(2) cells, found to exhibit the highest round-trip efficiency reported to date.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review on fundamentals for designing oxygen evolution electrocatalysts
Jiajia Song,Jiajia Song,Chao Wei,Zhen-Feng Huang,Chuntai Liu,Lin Zeng,Xin Wang,Zhichuan J. Xu +7 more
TL;DR: This article summarized the recent progress in understanding OER mechanisms, which include the conventional adsorbate evolution mechanism (AEM) and lattice-oxygen-mediated mechanism (LOM) from both theoretical and experimental aspects, and introduced strategies to reduce overpotential.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic Core/Shell Fe3O4/Au and Fe3O4/Au/Ag Nanoparticles with Tunable Plasmonic Properties
TL;DR: Control on shell thickness allows the tuning of plasmonic properties of the core/shell structure to be either red-shifted (to 560 nm) or blue-sh shifted (to 501 nm) which should have great potentials for nanoparticle-based diagnostic and therapeutic applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemical and structural origin of lattice oxygen oxidation in Co–Zn oxyhydroxide oxygen evolution electrocatalysts
Zhen-Feng Huang,Jiajia Song,Yonghua Du,Shibo Xi,Shuo Dou,Jean Marie Vianney Nsanzimana,Cheng Wang,Zhichuan J. Xu,Xin Wang +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated Co-Zn oxyhydroxide electrocatalysts, and suggested that the mechanism depends on the amount of Zn2+ they contain, and found that Zn0.2Co0.8 has the optimum activity.
