Nonphotocatalytic water splitting through oxygen-deficient, mesoporous metal oxide design-based hydroelectric cells (HECs) is a well-known phenomenon. To exploit more power from HECs, a metal oxide with more oxygen deficiency is desirable. In this study, oxygen-deficient mesoporous SnO via a sol-gel method and its composites with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) have been presented.

Two unprecedented organic amine templated silver organophosphonate hybrid solids have been synthesized hydrothermally by varying the molar ratio of the reactants. Both of the compounds consist of novel tetra- and penta-nuclear silver phosphonate basic building units. The dielectric constants are extremely large due to the charge separation of anionic metal phosphonate frameworks and cationic templated piperazine moieties in the compounds, as found for the first time in a hybrid organophosphate family.

The generation of electricity by dissociating water into HO and OH ions through a hydroelectric cell (HEC) without liberating any toxic waste has achieved a groundbreaking feat. Nanoporous magnesium-doped SnO and cobalt-doped SnO materials have been prepared via a novel sol-gel method. The X-ray diffraction patterns of Mg-doped SnO and Co-doped SnO completely match with those of pure SnO, which confirms the interstitial substitution of Mg and Co in the pristine SnO.

This study reports a unique graphitic-CN supported ZnCoO composite, synthesized through a facile hydrothermal method to enhance the electrochemical performance of the electrode. The g-CN@ZnCoO hybrid composite based electrode exhibits a significant increase in specific surface area and maximum specific capacity of 157 mAhg at 4 Ag. Moreover, g-CN@ZnCoO electrode maintained significant capacity retention of 90% up to 2500 cycles.
