Gas bubbles generated by the hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction
during water electrolysis influence the energy conversion efficiency of hydrogen production …

Surface nanobubbles are nanoscopic gaseous domains on immersed substrates which can
survive for days. They were first speculated to exist about 20 years ago, based on stepwise …

Understanding and manipulating gas bubble evolution during electrochemical water
splitting is a crucial strategy for optimizing the electrode/electrolyte/gas bubble interface …

The optical, electronic, and mechanical properties of graphite, few-layer, and two-
dimensional (2D) materials have prompted a considerable number of applications …

For centuries, bubbles have fascinated artists, engineers, and scientists alike. In spite of
century-long research on them, new and often surprising bubble phenomena, features, and …

Understanding the stability mechanism of surface micro/nanobubbles adhered to gas-
evolving electrodes is essential for improving the efficiency of water electrolysis, which is …

We present a theoretical model for the experimentally found but counterintuitive
exceptionally long lifetime of surface nanobubbles. We can explain why, under normal …

Interactions between hydrophobic surfaces at nanometer separation distances in aqueous
solutions are important in a number of biological and industrial processes. Force …

Traditional froth flotation is the primary method for the separation and upgrading of fine
mineral particles. However, it is still difficult for micro-fine and low-quality minerals to …

Single H2 nanobubble nucleation is studied at Pt nanodisk electrodes of radii less than 50
nm, where H2 is produced through electrochemical reduction of protons in a strong acid …
