This review compares the mechanical and thermal-electrical properties of sintered copper
(Cu) with sintered silver (Ag) as bonding materials in the microelectronics joint applications …

Metal oxides play a very important role in many areas of chemistry, physics, and materials
science. 1-5 The metal elements are able to form a large diversity of oxide compounds. 6 …

Bulk chemicals such as ethylene glycol (EG) can be industrially synthesized from either
ethylene or syngas, but the latter undergoes a bottleneck reaction and requires high …

To realize the evolution of C2+ hydrocarbons like C2H4 from CO2 reduction in
photocatalytic systems remains a great challenge, owing to the gap between the relatively …

Single-atom catalysts are becoming increasingly significant to numerous energy conversion
reactions. However, their rational design and construction remain quite challenging due to …

Most engineering materials are based on multiphase microstructures produced either
through the control of phase equilibria or by the fabrication of different materials as in thin …

Metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) are reported to impact plant growth in hydroponic systems.
This study describes the impact of commercial CuO (< 50 nm) and ZnO (< 100 nm) NPs on …

The growth of large-domain single crystalline graphene with the controllable number of
layers is of central importance for large-scale integration of graphene devices. Here we …

A combined experimental and theoretical study is reported on the vibrational properties of
tenorite CuO and paramelaconite Cu4O3. The optically active modes have been measured …

Electrocatalysis is generally confined to dynamic liquid–solid and gas–solid interfaces and
is rarely applicable in solid-state reactions. Here, we report a paradigm shift strategy to …
