Electrochemical potential window of battery electrolytes: the HOMO-LUMO misconception

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo

A widespread misconception in the lithium ion battery literature is the equality of the energy difference of HOMO and LUMO of the solvent with the electrochemical stability window. HOMO and LUMO are concepts derived from approximated electronic structure t ...

Effect of Chaotropes on the Transfer of Ions and Dyes across the Liquid–Liquid Interface

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Evgeny Smirnov, Grégoire Clément Gschwend, Lucie Josette Renée Rivier, Elena Vladimirova

Chaotropes such as urea can break the structure of water, weakening the hydrophobic effect and reducing aggregation. Here, we investigated how the addition of urea affects the transfer of ions and cationic dyes across the interface between immiscible elect ...

Solvent effect in photo-ionic cells

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Elena Vladimirova

Photo-ionic cells convert solar energy into redox fuels. Unlike in photovoltaic devices where the photo-induced charge transfer reactions occur at an electrode, the photoreaction takes place in one bulk solution of a biphasic liquid-liquid system, and the ...

Battery

Pekka Eero Peljo

In a battery system, an electrochemical cell has a first compartment containing a positive electrolyte with an electrode 2 at least partially immersed in the positive electrolyte containing the first redox active material, forming a positive half cell. A s ...

Electrovariable gold nanoparticle films at liquid–liquid interfaces: from redox electrocatalysis to Marangoni-shutters

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Evgeny Smirnov, Grégoire Clément Gschwend

Control over the physical properties of nanoparticle assemblies at a liquid–liquid interface is a key technological advancement to realize the dream of smart electrovariable nanosystems. Electrified interfaces, such as the interface between two immiscible ...

Understanding Digestive Ripening of Ligand-Stabilized, Charged Metal Nanoparticles

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo

Most syntheses of thiolate-protected metal nanoparticles (NPs) include a thermochemical step in which the as-prepared, polydisperse NPs are transformed to a narrower size distribution in a poorly understood process known as digestive ripening (DR). Previou ...

Self-assembly and redox induced phase transfer of gold nanoparticles at the water-propylene carbonate interface

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Evgeny Smirnov

Citrate-stabilized gold nanoparticles were found to spontaneously self-assemble into a lustrous film at a bare water–propylene carbonate interface after vigorous shaking, due to the extremely low interfacial tension. The presence of an electron donor, tetr ...

Photoproduction of Hydrogen by Decamethylruthenocene Combined with Electrochemical Recycling

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Manuel Alejandro Méndez Agudelo, Grégoire Clément Gschwend, Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay, Micheal Diarmaid Scanlon, Lucie Josette Renée Rivier

The photoinduced hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) by decamethylruthenocene, Cp2RuII (Cp=C5Me5), is reported. The use of a metallocene to photoproduce hydrogen is presented as an alternative strategy to reduce protons without involving an additional phot ...

Redox Electrocatalysis of Floating Nanoparticles: Determining Electrocatalytic Properties without the Influence of Solid Supports

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Astrid Johana Olaya Avendano, Micheal Diarmaid Scanlon, Evgeny Smirnov, Thomas James Stockmann, Lucie Josette Renée Rivier

Redox electrocatalysis (catalysis of electron-transfer reactions by floating conductive particles) is discussed from the point-of-view of Fermi level equilibration, and an overall theoretical framework is given. Examples of redox electrocatalysis in soluti ...
