Charge transfer enhancement at the CZTS photocathode interface using ITO for efficient solar water reduction by Tay, Ying Fan, Zhang, Mengyuan, Zhang, Shuo, Lie, Stener, Chiam, Sing Yang, Wong, Lydia Helena

“…Our results suggest that the improved photocurrent, onset potential, and recovery effect are probably attributed to the removal of phosphate ions adhering to the surface of the ITO layer and higher catalytic activity at the semiconductor/electrolyte surface by forming In-Pt and Sn-Pt interactions due to partial reduction of In and Sn on the ITO surface.…”

Engineering memristor : control over the fourth fundamental element for memory application and beyond by Ge, Ning

“…This is especially shown in the recent neuromorphic computing since both neuron and memristor operate in ions. In many ways, a memristor is very similar to a synapse (a biological connection between two neurons), which is able to modulate and tune the efficiency of signal transmission between neurons with a high level of plasticity. …”

Uncovering the potential of yttrium doped zinc oxide nanoparticles as an efficient catalyst for photodegradation of recalcitrant pollutant and a contributor antibacterial property by Peechmani, Prakash, Mohd. Makhtar, Siti Nurfatin Nadhirah, Mansur, Sumarni, Othman, Mohd. Hafiz Dzarfan, Kamaludin, Roziana, Puteh, Mohd. Hafiz, Wong, Keng Yinn, Tonni Agustiono Kurniawan, Tonni Agustiono Kurniawan, Abdul Rahman, Mukhlis, Jaafar, Juhana, Ismail, Ahmad Fauzi

“…High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) showed an increase in grain size as the concentration of Y3+ ions inside the ZnO matrix increased. Ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared spectroscopic measurement revealed a red shift of the bandgap energy of 0.128 eV, which confirmed the substitution process. …”
