We review oxygen K-edge X-ray absorption spectra of both molecules and solids. We start
with an overview of the main experimental aspects of oxygen K-edge X-ray absorption …

Fischer–Tropsch synthesis (FTS) is a process which converts syn-gas (H2 and CO) to
synthetic liquid fuels and valuable chemicals. Thermal gasification of biomass represents a …

Rechargeable zinc-air batteries call for high-performance bifunctional oxygen
electrocatalysts. Transition metal single-atom catalysts constitute a promising candidate …

Transforming carbon dioxide into valuable chemicals and fuels, is a promising tool for
environmental and industrial purposes. Here, we present catalysts comprising of cobalt …

The cathode materials work as the host framework for both Li+ diffusion and electron
transport in Li‐ion batteries. The Li+ diffusion property is always the research focus, while …

Through direct nanoparticle nucleation and growth on nitrogen doped, reduced graphene
oxide sheets and cation substitution of spinel Co3O4 nanoparticles, a manganese–cobalt …

The world's energy consumption is predicted to grow by 56% by the year 2040, from 520
quadrillion Btu pa in 2010 to 820 quadrillion Btu/pa, as reported by the US Energy …

The lack of stability is a challenge for most heterogeneous catalysts. During operations, the
agglomeration of particles may block the active sites of the catalyst, which is believed to …

Electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is crucial for a variety of renewable
energy applications and energy-intensive industries. The design and synthesis of highly …

Starting from the late seventies, the progressively increased availability of synchrotron light
sources allowed the execution of experiments requiring a high X-ray flux in a continuous …
