Summary: Electrocatalysts based on metal nanoparticles prepared by an organometallic route and supported on carbon nanotubes show superior performance in the electro-catalytic reduction of CO2 compared to those prepared using inorganic salts. Particularly for Ru samples, the catalysts prepared by the organometallic route exhibit significantly higher turnover frequency and productivity, with enhanced formation of C1 products.

Summary: Nanostructuring earth-abundant metals as single atoms or controlled clusters on suitable carriers can develop high-performing heterogeneous catalysts, but resolving speciation trends remains challenging. Low-nuclearity iron catalysts exhibit higher activity than larger clusters, with atomistic simulations suggesting a central role of residual carbonyl species in enabling low-energy paths over isolated metal centers.

Summary: The influence of backbone length on grafting efficiency during the graft-onto reaction process was investigated. It was found that the polydispersity effect of backbone length does not affect the final grafting efficiency, indicating that the local dynamics of chain segments dominate the graft-onto process.

Summary: This study develops a visible-light-active nanostructured Nd2O3 catalyst with the addition of PtO, which shows efficient photocatalytic H2 production. The synthesized nanostructures exhibit mesoporous textures and enhanced visible-light absorption due to PtO inclusion. The PtO/Nd2O3 catalyst achieves significant enhancement in H2 production with good reusability when a hole scavenger is present.

Summary: A(l2)O(3):Dy3+ phosphors were successfully prepared using the precursor method. The crystal structures and spectra analysis revealed that increasing dopant concentration led to decreased luminescence intensity and shifted luminescence position. Some of the prepared samples showed high thermal stability and potential for blue-white luminescence.

Summary: The structure and dispersion of active sites play a crucial role in the performance of supported metal oxide catalysts. This study proposes a restricted random distribution model to investigate the anchoring behavior of active sites on the TiO2 surface of V2O5/TiO2 catalysts. The structures of different VOx sites were determined through DFT calculations and experimental validation. The results suggest that the dual sites configuration and terminal V(=O)2 bond contribute to the high reactivity of aggregated VOx sites. By combining reactivity and random distribution, a general profile of the correlation between the V2O5/TiO2 catalyst surface and its reaction performance is established.

Summary: Vanadium-oxide-based materials with various oxidation states have been studied for their potential applications in rechargeable magnesium ion batteries, showing different performance based on phase composition and metal ion insertion behavior. The sluggish Mg2+ ion kinetics in MgV2O6 was attributed to poor electronic and ionic wiring, leading to complex redox behavior in the materials. Addition of carbon was found to enhance the charge storage behavior of MgV2O6, demonstrating an effective dual strategy for improving performance.
