Anatase TiO2 thin-films were formed on glass by a sol-gel dip-coating method and annealed at 500 degrees C. Ag nanoparticles were grown on the surface of TiO2 by a photo-assisted process from AgNO3 salt using either UVC - 254 nm or UVA - 365 nm light. The size, shape and coverage of the particles were assessed by scanning electron microscopy. Changes in surface plasmon properties were investigated by UV-visible spectroscopy. A greater level of spherical Ag nanoparticles grew on TiO2 when using UVA light (365 nm); with particles 96 +/- 33 nm wide on average and covering 29% of the surface. In the case of UVC light (254 nm), particles were 78 +/- 14 nm wide on average and covered 13% of the surface. EXAFS measurements performed in situ of the Ag K-edge showed that the photo-assisted growth was more rapid when UVA light was used, leading to the full conversion of the AgNO3 salt layer in approximate to 1900 seconds. When UVC light was used, approximate to 50% of the salt layer was converted in approximate to 6100 seconds. The inhibited growth under UVC conditions was attributed to the absorption of light by the Ag nanoparticles as they formed (as opposed to the semiconductor beneath). The films also displayed reversible photochromism. The change in phase from the coloured (metallic Ag) to the bleached state (oxidized Ag) was identified using EXAFS spectroscopy. By comparing the EXAFS pattern with simulated model structures, it was shown that the transition from cubic Ag to cubic Ag2O was most likely, with an approximate to 70% conversion with 12 hours of white light irradiance. We believe that this is the first time the bleached form of silver in photochromic Ag-TiO2 thin-films has been identified by a direct method. In addition, we believe that this is the first case in which the photo-assisted formation of Ag-TiO2 has been monitored in situ under ambient temperature and pressure.

Xiaopeng Liu, Holly Andersen, Yinan Lu, Bo Wen, Ivan P. Parkin, Michael De Volder, Buddha Deka Boruah

Summary: The development of devices with dual solar energy-harvesting and storage functionalities has gained traction for off-grid power supply. In this study, a porous carbon coated on a zinc oxide-cadmium sulfide heterostructure was proposed as an energy efficient photocathode for photo-accelerated zinc ion capacitors (Photo-ZICs). The Photo-ZICs demonstrated efficient charge storage performance under illumination compared to dark conditions, along with stable charge storage capacities over long-term cycling.

Photo-enhanced lithium-ion batteries using metal-organic frameworks

Holly Andersen, Yinan Lu, Joanna Borowiec, Ivan P. Parkin, Michael De Volder, Buddha Deka Boruah

Summary: The development of photo-enhanced lithium-ion batteries, where exposing the electrodes to light results in higher capacities, higher rate performance or self-charging, has recently gained substantial traction. The challenge in these devices lies in the realisation of photo-electrodes with good optical and electrochemical properties. Herein, we propose copper-hexahydroxybenzene as the active photo-electrode material which both harvests light and stores energy. This material was mixed with reduced graphene oxide as a conductive additive and charge transfer medium to create photo-active electrodes. Under illumination, these electrodes show improved charge storage kinetics resulting in the photo-accelerated charging and discharging performance (i.e. specific capacities improvement from 107 mA h g(-1) to 126 mA h g(-1) at 200 mA g(-1) and 79 mA h g(-1) to 97 mA h g(-1) at 2000 mA g(-1) under 1 sun illumination as compared to dark).

When It's Heavier: Interfacial and Solvation Chemistry of Isotopes in Aqueous Electrolytes for Zn-ion Batteries

Xuan Gao, Yuhang Dai, Chengyi Zhang, Yixuan Zhang, Wei Zong, Wei Zhang, Ruwei Chen, Jiexin Zhu, Xueying Hu, Mingyue Wang, Ruizhe Chen, Zijuan Du, Fei Guo, Haobo Dong, Yiyang Liu, Hongzhen He, Siyu Zhao, Fangjia Zhao, Jianwei Li, Ivan P. Parkin, Claire J. Carmalt, Guanjie He

Summary: The use of the isotope electrochemical effect (EEI) of water in Zn-ion batteries (ZIBs) electrolyte addresses the challenges of side reactions and gas production. The low diffusion and strong coordination of ions in D2O reduce the possibility of side reactions, resulting in a broader potential window, less pH change, and less zinc hydroxide sulfate (ZHS) generation during cycling. D2O also eliminates different ZHS phases caused by changes in bound water, leading to a stable electrode-electrolyte interface. Full cells with D2O-based electrolyte demonstrate stable cycling performance with high reversible efficiencies and wide voltage windows.

Sanjayan Sathasivam, Sapna D. Ponja, Seonghyeok Park, Clara Sanchez-Perez, Christopher Blackman, Ivan P. Parkin, Claire J. Carmalt

Summary: Alternatives to tin-doped indium oxide transparent electrodes are required. Tungsten-doped SnO2 thin films with low resistivities and high electron mobilities were obtained using chemical vapor deposition. The tungsten dopant had minimal distortion to the SnO2 unit cell and resulted in crystallographic preferential orientation in the [200] direction. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis indicated that tungsten was present in the +5 state, minimizing ionized impurity scattering and achieving high electron mobilities. The tungsten-doped films had an optical band gap of 3.7 eV, making them transparent to visible light.

Phase Quantification of Heterogeneous Surfaces Using DFT-Simulated Valence Band Photoemission Spectra

Roxy Lee, Raul Quesada-Cabrera, Joe Willis, Asif Iqbal, Ivan P. P. Parkin, David O. O. Scanlon, Robert G. G. Palgrave

Summary: This study presents a method for quantifying crystallographic phases on a surface by fitting experimental photoemission spectra with density functional theory (DFT) models. The method was applied to map the anatase to rutile ratio across the surface of mixed-phase TiO2 thin films, and the results were correlated with photocatalytic activity measurements. The study demonstrates the potential of this method for large-scale functional and surface composition mapping in heterogeneous systems, and the unique insights provided by DFT-simulated spectra on the electronic structure origins of complex valence band spectral features.

Influence of Bi co-catalyst particle size on the photocatalytic activity of BiOI microflowers in Bi/BiOI junctions-A mechanistic study of charge carrier behaviour

Yuan Quan, Marcus H. N. YiO, Yuankai Li, Rupert J. Myers, Andreas Kafizas

Summary: In this study, the effect of Bi particle size in BiOI/Bi junctions on their photocatalytic function towards NO gas was investigated. The results showed that BiOI decorated with nano-sized Bi particles (BiOI/Bi NPs) displayed the highest photocatalytic activity, achieving NO and NOx conversion efficiencies of -33% and -11% under UVA light. In contrast, the BiOI microflowers decorated with micron-sized Bi particles (BiOI/Bi MPs) and pure BiOI samples showed lower activities. The enhanced performance of BiOI/Bi NPs was attributed to the interfacial contact between Bi and BiOI, promoting charge carrier separation and the formation of VO.

Insights into the multi-functional lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate additive in boosting the Li-ion reaction kinetics for Li3VO4 anodes

Miaomiao Zhang, Cunyuan Pei, Qiqi Xiang, Lintao Liu, Zhongxu Dai, Huijuan Ma, Shibing Ni

Summary: The design of a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) plays a crucial role in improving the electrochemical performance of anode materials. In this study, lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate (LiDFOB) is used as an electrolyte additive to form a protective SEI film on Li3VO4 (LVO) anodes. The addition of LiDFOB results in a dense, uniform, stable, and LiF-richer SEI, which enhances the Li-ion storage kinetics. The generated SEI also prevents further decomposition of the electrolyte and maintains the morphology of LVO anodes during charge/discharge processes. This work demonstrates the effectiveness of LiDFOB as a multi-functional additive for LiPF6 electrolytes and provides insights into SEI construction for high-performance LVO anodes.

ClO-driven degradation of graphene oxide: new insights from DFT calculations

S. L. Romo-Avila, D. Marquez-Ruiz, R. A. Guirado-Lopez

Summary: In this study, we used density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the interaction between model graphene oxide (GO) nanostructures and chlorine monoxide ClO. We aimed to understand the role of this highly oxidizing species in breaking C-C bonds and forming significant holes on GO sheets. Our results showed that C-C bonds in a single graphene oxide sheet can be broken through a simple mechanism involving the dissociation of two chemically attached ClO molecules. The formation of carbonyl groups and holes on the GO surface was also observed. This study provides important insights into the degradation of carbon nanotubes and the stability of GO during the myeloperoxidase (MPO) catalytic cycle.

Composition dependence of X-ray stability and degradation mechanisms at lead halide perovskite single crystal surfaces

Alberto Garcia-Fernandez, Birgit Kammlander, Stefania Riva, Hakan Rensmo, Ute B. Cappel

Summary: In this study, the X-ray stability of five different lead halide perovskite compositions (MAPbI3, MAPbCl3, MAPbBr3, FAPbBr3, CsPbBr3) was investigated using photoelectron spectroscopy. Different degradation mechanisms and resistance to X-ray were observed depending on the crystal composition. Overall, perovskite compositions based on the MA+ cation were found to be less stable than those based on FA+ or Cs+. Metallic lead formation was most easily observed in the chloride perovskite, followed by bromide, and very little in MAPbI3. Multiple degradation processes were identified for the bromide compositions, including ion migration, formation of volatile and solid products, as well as metallic lead. CsBr was formed as a solid degradation product on the surface of CsPbBr3.

The effect of temperature and oxygen partial pressure on the concentration of iron and manganese ions in La1/3Sr2/3Fe1-xMnxO3-δ

Sergey S. Nikitin, Alexander D. Koryakov, Elizaveta A. Antipinskaya, Alexey A. Markov, Mikhail V. Patrakeev

Summary: The stability of La1/3Sr2/3Fe1-xMnxO3-delta, a perovskite-type oxide, under reducing conditions is dependent on the manganese content. Increasing the manganese content leads to a decrease in stability. The behavior of iron and manganese in the oxide shows distinct differences, which can be attributed to the difference in the enthalpy of oxidation reactions. Additionally, the change in the La/Sr ratio affects the concentration of iron and manganese ions.
