Biomass is recognized as an ideal CO2 neutral, abundant, and renewable resource
substitute to fossil fuels. The rich proton content in most biomass derived materials, such as …

Semiconducting quantum dots (QDs) have received huge attention for energy conversion
and storage due to their unique characteristics, such as quantum size effect, multiple exciton …

Photocatalytic hydrogen generation via water splitting is a sustainable, renewable, and
promising technology to produce green and clean hydrogen fuel by disassociating water …

Over the past few years, many approaches have been developed progressively to produce
hydrogen (H2) from water under solar light irradiation. This process of fuel production is …

The sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is often the bottleneck of photocatalytic
overall water splitting, greatly suppressing the hydrogen-production activity. Herein, the slow …

Solar hydrogen generation via photocatalytic water splitting represents an attractive strategy
to address the global energy crisis and environmental pollution issues. CdS-based …

Nanochemistry provides powerful synthetic tools allowing one to combine different materials
on a single nanostructure, thus unfolding numerous possibilities to tailor their properties …

Sunlight is our most abundant, clean and inexhaustible energy source. However, its diffuse
and intermittent nature makes it difficult to use directly, suggesting that we should instead …

Photocatalytic conversion of CO2 into carbonaceous feedstock chemicals is a promising
strategy to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and simultaneously store solar energy in …

High cost and depletion of fossil fuels obligate the researchers to find energy sources that
are not only renewable but can also replace the conventional sources. In this work, various …
