The subject of this review is the colloidal quantum dot (QD) and specifically the interaction of
the QD with proximate molecules. It covers various functions of these molecules, including (i) …

Photoredox catalytic processes offer the potential for precise chemical reactions using light
and materials. The central determinant is identified as interfacial charge transfer, which …

Herein, the assembly of CsPbBr3 QD/AlOx inorganic nanocomposites, by using atomic layer
deposition (ALD) for the growth of the amorphous alumina matrix (AlOx), is described as a …

Strong reducing agents (<− 2.0 V vs saturated calomel electrode (SCE)) enable a wide array
of useful organic chemistry, but suffer from a variety of limitations. Stoichiometric metallic …

This Perspective reviews strategies for tuning the surface chemistry of colloidal
semiconductor nanocrystals (quantum dots, QDs) to function as photoredox catalysts or …

This Communication describes the photoredox catalysis of a C–C coupling reaction
between 1-phenylpyrrolidine (PhPyr) and phenyl trans-styryl sulfone by visible-light …

Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) offer many advantages as photocatalysts for synthetic
photoredox catalysis, but no reports have explored the use of QDs with nickel catalysts for C …

We study the influence of surface passivating ligands on the optical and structural properties
of zinc blende CdSe nanoplatelets. Ligand exchange of native oleic acid with aliphatic thiol …

The development of active, robust systems for light-driven hydrogen production from
aqueous protons based on catalysts and light absorbers composed solely of earth abundant …

Bamboo, because of its fast growth, high fiber strength and biodegradability, had been used
to develop lightweight structural materials. However, the inherent hydrophilicity, poor …
