Photocatalytic Water Splitting on the Lunar Surface: Prospects for In Situ Resource Utilization
Water has been found in craters on the moon nearby locations which are illuminated >80% of the time. Photocatalysis uses energy from sunlight to drive chemical reactions such as water splitting to produce oxygen and hydrogen. It is a scalable technology that requires lighter equipment and utilizes resources available on the moon. ABSTRACT The discovery

Using femtosecond ablation, we show that an ordered, stoichiometric crystalline PdSe2 target can be controllably converted into a stable, disordered, non‐stoichiometric, and highly functional amorphous nanomaterial, PdSe2−x${\rm PdSe}_{2-x}$. The obtained nanoparticles offer significant advantages over conventional planar plasmon‐free substrates due to

Defect Properties and Band Energetics of Atomic Layer Deposited MoOX on Crystalline Si
Atomic layer deposited MoOx thin films grown using oxygen plasma and ozone co‐reactants exhibit tunable defect densities and band energetics. Optical and X#x02010;ray photoelectron spectroscopies reveal oxygen#x02010;vacancy#x02010;induced defect and polaron states and their impact on band alignment at the c#x02010;Si/MoOx interface, providing insight ...
