Branching of Titanium Nanorods

Description: This article reports that Ti nanorod branching occurs at a low homologous temperature of 0.28 based on physical vapor deposition and characterizations using electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The insight into conditions for branching, together with the determination of the morphology and crystal orientation of the branches, lay the foundation for further studies of branching mechanisms and driving force.

Biochar aerogel-based electrocatalyst towards efficient oxygen evolution in acidic media

Description: Article argues that traditional acidic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts are more prone to be oxidized and corroded as results of unstable carrier structures and variable electronic states of active species, so a high-performing biochar aerogel (BA) based electrocatalyst was realistically designed and synthetized via joint utilization of the terrestrial lignin and seaweed polysaccharide as carbon sources. This work puts forward a novel and effective strategy towards the enhanceme… more
