Synergetic Combination of Carbon Xerogels, Graphene Oxide and nano‐ZnO for Aqueous and Organic Supercapacitors

Batteries &Supercaps, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2025.
This work proposes the synthesis of carbon‐based nanostructured materials obtained using ZnO as both nanos‐ template and catalysts simultaneously. During the synthesis, GO was used as a stabiliser, preventing the collapse of the 3D structure and improving its properties in terms of capacitance and surface area.

Regulating Defect‐Coordinated Single‐Iron‐Atom Catalysts for Efficient Nitrate Reduction Reactions

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
This figure illustrates the ball‐and‐stick model of an asymmetric monatomic Fe─N2 catalyst and its catalytic process for converting nitrate to ammonia. Shown are the adsorption configurations of precursors and intermediates (NO3− → NO2− → NO → NH2OH → NH3) on the catalyst surface, where brown represents iron atoms, red represents oxygen atoms, dark ...
