Laser-Synthesized Ru-Anchored Few-Layer Black Phosphorus for Superior Hydrogen Evolution: Role of Acoustic Levitation

“…Upon laser irradiation of the methanolic solution containing bulk BP, the layered structure disintegrated into pleated few-layer BP, as depicted in Figure b. This disintegration results from a complex interplay of chemical and physical phenomena in the liquid environment, influenced by laser parameters such as wavelength, pulse energy, repetition rate, irradiation time, and solvent type. − During the PLIL process, the laser energy interacts with the liquid solvent (methanol), triggering multiphoton processes that lead to cavitation and bubble formation. These bubbles generate acoustic shockwaves on the surface of bulk BP.…”

Revealing the Impact of Pulsed Laser-Produced Single-Pd Nanoparticles on a Bimetallic NiCo2O4 Electrocatalyst for Energy-Saving Hydrogen Production via Hybrid Water Electrolysis

“…Therefore, the current focus of research and development worldwide is to primarily explore the efficient and clean technology for the large-scale production of H 2 . , Over the past several decades, H 2 production through electrocatalytic overall water splitting (OWS) has garnered extensive attention as an effective technology. This is due to its capability to utilize freely and widely accessible renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, for decomposing carbon-free water molecules into clean H 2 . − Electrocatalytic OWS is performed by assembling the water electrolyzer, which contains two half-reactions, namely, hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). , Despite the long-established industrial application of alkaline OWS technology, the efficiency of H 2 production via water electrolyzers has been hindered by the sluggish kinetics of these reactions and the substantial overpotential (1.23 V vs RHE) required for the anodic OER. , Consequently, significant research efforts are being dedicated to developing high-performance water electrolyzers that address these challenges.…”
