Copper and zinc oxide anchored silica microsphere: A superior pseudocapacitive positive electrode for aqueous supercapacitor applications

Narthana Kandhasamy et al.

Summary: The study successfully synthesized highly uniform copper and zinc oxide anchored nanoparticles on the surface of silica using a sol-gel method. Detailed structural and compositional analyses were carried out using X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Laser Raman, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The charge-discharge results showed excellent performance in specific capacitance at high current densities for the composite materials.

Inactive Cu2O Cubes Become Highly Photocatalytically Active with Ag2S Deposition

Ting-Yu Liang et al.

Summary: By lightly depositing Ag2S nanoparticles on Cu2O cubes, significant photocatalytic activity was observed, supported by XRD and XPS analysis. The heterostructures showed enhanced activity, confirmed by EPR and photoluminescence measurements, indicating a potential Z-scheme charge transfer mechanism at the interface. Unexpectedly, separately synthesized Ag2S particles were found to be photocatalytically inactive.

The quaternary system of Ag2S/ZnS co-modified ZnO/TiO2 nanotree arrays: Excellent photocatalysis and photoelectrochemistry performance

Kang Xu et al.

Summary: The ZnO/TiO2 nanotree arrays promote the separation of electron-hole pairs, with improved photoelectrochemical and photocatalytic properties. The core-shell structure of ZnS passivation layer and ZnO prevents decomposition, enhances light absorption, and promotes charge transfer. Ag2S modification reduces bandgap width, red-shifts optical absorption edge, and improves absorption intensity, resulting in enhanced photo current density and photocatalytic rate constants compared to pure TiO2.

Photocatalytic dye degradation and photoexcited anti-microbial activities of green zinc oxide nanoparticles synthesized via Sargassum muticum extracts

Harinee Subramanian et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that zinc oxide nanoparticles mediated by Sargassum muticum exhibited significant antimicrobial effects against drug-resistant superbugs. These nanoparticles can directly attack bacterial cells and cause death through a biphasic phenomenon, while also possessing photocatalytic activity for dye degradation. The findings suggest potential applications of these nanoparticles in environmental water purification.
