Pleased to share our recent review paper on design strategies for ferroelectric photoelectrodes - xlink.rsc.org/?doi=10.1039/D…. This paper has been selected as a Hot Article by @JMaterChem! Congratulations to the authors: @CuiYingDu @migunwn @Shujie_Zhou @dennygunawaan @GlobH2E_UNSW

Ferroelectric materials as photoelectrocatalysts: photoelectrode design rationale and strategies

Ferroelectrics are crystalline materials that possess a permanent and reversible spontaneous polarization. When applied in (opto)electronic devices, the presence of a polarization-induced internal...

Check out the latest work that restores #ammonia from waste nitrate using TiOx/CdS/Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) photocathode in a #photoelectrochemical system, achieving nearly 100% ammonia FE and an onset potential of ~0.49 V vs. RHE. @Partcatunsw sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

A new PhD started today. She asked for general advice for the first few months. This was my advice: 1. Don’t work evenings or weekends 2. Don’t aim to prove yourself (to me), I’m already convinced of your capacities 3. Go for a walk when things dazzle you (1/3)
