Heterojunction Engineering for Electrocatalytic Applications

Santanu Pal et al.

Summary: Production of green hydrogen through water electrolysis is desirable for clean energy demand, but faces challenges in terms of energy barriers and economic sustainability. Heterojunctions, which involve material combinations with desired band structures, have emerged as a smart approach to enhance electrocatalytic activities. This review extensively discusses various heterojunctions, interface modifications, thermodynamics, and factors that boost electrocatalytic activities. Heterojunction-based electrocatalysts are not only effective in oxygen and hydrogen evolution reactions, but also in various electrochemical reactions involving decomposition of small molecules at low energy. Hence, heterojunction-based electrocatalysts are expected to be the primary choice for researchers in the future.

The antibacterial property of zinc oxide/graphene oxide modified porous polyetheretherketone against S. sanguinis, F. nucleatum and P. gingivalis

Shihui Yang et al.

Summary: About 30% of implant failures are caused by peri-implantitis, which is initiated by subgingival plaque including S. sanguinis, F. nucleatum, P. gingivalis, and others. Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is commonly used in dental applications but has poor antibacterial properties. In this study, ZnO/GO was loaded onto sulfonated PEEK to enhance its antibacterial activity. The modified ZnO/GO-SPEEK exhibited optimal physical and chemical properties, and demonstrated good biocompatibility. It significantly inhibited P. gingivalis and exerted antibacterial activity against S. sanguinis in the early stage, effectively preventing biofilm formation. These results suggest that the modification of PEEK with ZnO/GO holds promise for preventing peri-implantitis.

Immobilization of zinc oxide-based photocatalysts for organic pollutant degradation: A review

Anh Thi Le et al.

Summary: The immobilization of ZnO-based photocatalysts on supportive substrates is an important research area in the field of organic pollutant removal. This review discusses the recent development of supportive substrates, immobilization methods, and the photocatalytic performances of the immobilized systems. Glass substrates have been widely used, but polymetric materials are emerging as promising substrates due to their stretchability, flexibility, and low cost. The hydrothermal method is favored for immobilizing ZnO-based photocatalysts due to its ability to control the size and morphology of ZnO nanostructures. The photocatalysts show satisfactory performance in solutions with a pH range of 6.5-8. Future research should focus on flexible supporting substrates, increased specific surface area for both photocatalysts and substrates, lifespan of photogenerated charge carriers, stability, and industrial-scale applications.

Photo generated charge transport studies of defects-induced shuttlecock-shaped ZnO/Ag hybrid nanostructures

Siddharth Choudhary et al.

Summary: The stimulating effects of interfacial charge transfer process between spherical Ag nanoparticles and shuttlecock-shaped ZnO nanostructures were reported through UV-visible spectroscopy and x-ray absorption spectroscopy. The red shift in plasmonic peak, increase in Urbach energy, enhanced intensity of deep-level emission, and the presence of red and blue emissions evolving with temperature indicate the interfacial interactions and increased recombination rate of electron-hole pairs. The decrease in intensities and emerging features in O K-edge and Zn L-edge suggest the charge transfer from Ag to ZnO at the interface of ZnO/Ag hybrids. Additionally, the differences in absorption edges with alternating light on/off conditions were analyzed for potential applications of this ZnO-based system.
