The conversion of CO2 to fuels can be instrumental in reducing future dependence on fossil fuels. High temperature (800oC) electrochemical reduction of CO2 to CO using a solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) provides an ...

Solvent effects play diverse roles in myriads of chemical, physical and biological processes. The solvent interacts with the solute by: i) non-specific (Coulombic, van der Waals interactions) and ii) specific interactions ...

Abstract: The study of light emission [1] from a molecular junction is recently gaining research interest. This has direct relevance to develop novel optoelectronic devices [2] and to understand light-matter interaction ...

Structural complexity is one of the characteristics of boron chemistry. The 3D solids formed from icosahedral B12 units is thought of as most favorable arrangement for boron allotropes. However, recent discoveries in this ...

Nanostructured materials play a vital role in almost all aspects of science and technology in the 21st century. The materials include nanoparticles, nanofilms, biological membranes etc. whose physicochemical properties are ...

Electrical double-layer formed at the interface between an electrode and an electrolyte has been a topic of innumerable studies. The electrical interface plays a crucial role in kinetics, mechanisms and applications in ...

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a medical technique that utilizes light, oxygen, and a photosensitizer to treat several medical conditions, including cancer. Because of the limitations and side effects of traditional anticancer ...

Cancer emerges from the abnormal proliferation of aberrant cells. Amidst a multitude of treatment options, chemotherapy is widely used as a viable methodology. Despite its widespread use, it is encumbered with significant ...
