Nanostructured Transition Metal Chalcogenides as Materials in Lithium Ion Batteries

Shining a light on transition metal chalcogenides for sustainable photovoltaics

Transition metal chalcogenides are an important family of materials that have received significant interest in recent years as they have the potential for diverse applications ranging from use in electronics to industrial lubricants. One of their most exciting properties is the ability to generate electricity from incident light. In this perspective we will summarise and highlight the key resul...

The Effect of Coinage Transition Metal (Cu, Ag, Au) Substitutions on Two-electron Redox Potential of Quinones

Quinones are a class of compounds which have widespread importance in chemistry, biology and medicine. Because of their appropriate performance in electron transferring rate, quinones are among the most applicable mediators in biosensors. Recently, the effects of different non-metal substitutions on redox potential of quinone have been investigated to design suitable mediators for different ele...

Enhancing light emission efficiency without color change in post-transition metal chalcogenides.

Two-dimensional (2D) materials can take a large amount of mechanical deformation before reaching the fracture limit due to their high Young's modulus, and this in return, provides a way to tune the properties of 2D materials by strain engineering. Previous works have shown that the optical band gap of transition metal chalcogenides (TMDs) can be modulated by strain, resulting in a drift of the ...

Ternary transition metal chalcogenides with framework structures and the characterization of their bonding by magnetic properties

An extended Zinti principle is discussed for framework structures of ternary metal chalcogenides, pnictides and hydrides with tetrahedral and planar coordination of transition metal atoms. Their bonding can be characterized by the magnetic moments measured by susceptibilities and neutron diffraction. The experimental results are compared with crystal field splittings obtained by calculations ba...
