Surface defects control for ZnO nanorods synthesized by quenching and their anti-recombination in photocatalysis
TL;DR: ZnO nanorods with controllable surface defects was synthesized by high-temperature quenching method, and the recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs had been drastically suppressed, thus significantly improving the photocatalytic reactivity as discussed by the authors.

Influence of particle size on performance of a nickel oxide nanoparticle-based supercapacitor
Siamak Pilban Jahromi,Alagarsamy Pandikumar,Boon Tong Goh,Yee Seng Lim,Wan Jefrey Basirun,Hong Ngee Lim,Nay Ming Huang +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of the particle size of an active material on its performance as a supercapacitor electrode was reported, and the results suggest that the size of the NiO nanostructure plays an important role because of the presence of a higher number of active sites for a faradaic reaction.
