1. Porous dendritic copper: an electrocatalyst for highly selective CO2 reduction to formate in water/ionic liquid electrolyte

Chem. Sci., 2017, 8, 742-747

DOI: 10.1039/C6SC03194C



Researchers in France have developed an efficient, stable and selective electrocatalyst system for the conversion of CO2 into formic acid. The group combined a nanostructured porous dendritic Cu-based material with a water/ionic liquid mixture as the solvent. A high current density of over 10 mA cm-2 was observed during electrocatalysis. This work has the potential to be used for the future development of Cu electrodes.


Chemical Science 副主编 Vincent Artero 的研究团队开发了一种高效、稳定而且有选择性的电催化剂系统,可以将二氧化碳转化为甲酸。他们采用了纳米结构的多孔枝晶Cu基材料,以水/离子液体混合物为溶剂,在电催化过程中观察到了超过 10 mA cm-2 的高电流密度。这项工作有望在未来用于铜电极的开发。

2. Solar H2 generation in water with a CuCrO2 photocathode modified with an organic dye and molecular Ni catalyst

Chem. Sci., 2018, Advance Article 

DOI: 10.1039/C7SC04476C



UK scientists have developed a high-performing dye-sensitised photoelectrochemical (DSPEC) cell, a route to solar fuel production. The group introduced CuCrO2 co-sensitised with an organic dye, DPP-P, and a molecular catalyst, NiP, for visible light-driven H2 generation. This photocathode displayed a photocurrent onset of +0.75 V vs. RHE and delivered a photocurrent of 15 µA cm-2 at 0.0 V vs. RHE. These findings highlight the advantages of using CuCrOas a material for DSPEC applications.


英国的科学家们开发出了一种高性能的染料敏化光电化学(DSPEC)电池,可用于生产太阳能燃料。该小组将有机染料DPP-P及分子催化剂NiP共同敏化的CuCrO2用于可见光驱动的氢气产生,这种光阴极的光电流起始电位在+ 0.75V vs. RHE,在0.0 V vs. RHE下的光电流达到了15 µA cm-2。这一发现凸显了CuCrO2 材料在DSPEC电池应用中的优势。

3. The merit of perovskite’s dimensionality; can this replace the 3D halide perovskite?

Energy Environ. Sci., 2017, Accepted Article

DOI: 10.1039/C7EE03397D



This perspective paper focuses on the dimensionality of organic-inorganic halide perovskite and its relevant advantages over 3D perovskite, including its enhanced stability, tuning of optical and electronic properties, and the large amount of possible organic cations that can be integrated into their structure. These properties make them a stable alternative for efficient and large-scale module solar cells, which may constitute the next step for commercializing perovskite-based solar cells.


这篇论文集中讨论了有机-无机卤化物钙钛矿的维度及其相对于3D钙钛矿的优势,包括增强的稳定性、可调的光学和电子性质以及大量能够整合到其结构中的有机阳离子。这些性质使其成为高效、大规模模块化太阳能电池的稳定替代品,可能推动基于钙钛矿的太阳能电池的下一步商业化。
