Solar reduction of carbon dioxide on copper-tin electrocatalysts with energy conversion efficiency near 20%

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Yuhang Liu, Jing Gao, Dan Ren, Jun Li, Meng Xia

Solar-driven carbon dioxide reduction has witnessed a renaissance in the past decades, but the system suffers from low reaction rates. Here the authors develop a copper/tin-oxide electrocatalyst, achieving a new benchmark solar-to-CO energy conversion effi ...

Metal-Stabilized Boronate Ester Cages

Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Erica Giraldi

Molecular cages with arylboronate ester caps at the vertices are described. The cages were obtained by metal-templated polycondensation reactions of a tris(2-formylpyridine oxime) ligand with arylboronic acids. Suited templates are triflate or triflimide s ...

Phase transformation induced distortions in red gold alloys

Margaux Nathalie Dominique Larcher

Red gold alloys owe their warm and attractive colour to the combination of gold and copper atoms. Thanks to their good mechanical properties and resistance to corrosion, red gold alloys are used in luxury industries as well as in dentistry. Around the equi ...

Progress on Tests on Splices Between Nb3Sn Rutherford Cables for Graded High-Field Accelerator Magnets

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Mithlesh Kumar, Vincenzo D'Auria

Future high-field accelerator magnets foresee the extensive use of Nb3Sn, more expensive than the Nb-Ti of LHC. For projects involving the series production of magnets, conductor grading is mandatory in order to reduce the cost. To allow grading ...

Evaluation of materials for iodine and technetium immobilization through sorption and redox-driven processes

Wendy Lee Queen, Daniel Teav Sun

Radioactive iodine-129 (I-129) and technetium-99 (Tc-9(9)) pose a risk to groundwater due to their long half-lives, toxicity, and high environmental mobility. Based on literature reviewed in Moore et al. (2019) and Pearce et aL (2019), natural and engineer ...
