Recent Advances in Faradic Electrochemical Deionization: System ArchitecturesversusElectrode Materials
(
American Chemical Society
, 2021 , Article Review)
Capacitive deionization (CDI) is an energy-efficient desalination technique. However, the maximum desalination capacity of conventional carbon-based CDI systems is approximately 20 mg g-1, which is too low for practical ...
Tuning the Intermolecular Electron Transfer of Low-Dimensional and Metal-Free BCN/C60Electrocatalysts via Interfacial Defects for Efficient Hydrogen and Oxygen Electrochemistry
(
American Chemical Society
, 2021 , Article)
The development of low-dimensional (LD) supramolecular materials with multifunctional electrocatalytic properties has sparked the attention of the catalysis community. Herein, we report the synthesis of a new class of 0D-2D ...
