Optimizing Light Dynamics: Designing a Ni-MOF Functionalized g-CN Type II Heterostructure and a TiC MXene Schottky Junction for the Efficient Photocatalytic H Production.

The photocatalytic production of hydrogen (H) from water is a vital avenue towards sustainable energy and addressing global environmental challenges. To maximize efficiency, harnessing the synergistic effects of multiple co-catalysts is essential, as these interactions can significantly enhance performance. In this study, we introduce a ternary heterojunction composed of a nickel-imidazole framework (Ni-MOF), graphitic carbon nitride (CN), and TiC MXene (TC), employing solvothermal and wet impregnation methods, featuring a well-designed Type II heterojunction and a noble metal-free Schottky junction for efficient hydrogen evolution.

Ultrasensitive detection of chloramphenicol in water using functionalized polymers with an aluminium organic framework.

Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are extensively used as electrode material in various sensing applications due to their efficacious porous nature and tunable properties. However, pristine MOFs lack conductive attributes that hinder their wide usage in electrochemical applications. Electropolymerization of several aromatic monomers has been a widely used strategy for preparing conducting electrode materials for various sensing applications in the past decades.

012 facets modulated LDH composite for neurotoxicity risk assessment through direct electrochemical profiling of dopamine.

Rising concerns of pesticide-induced neurotoxicity and neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and Multiple Sclerosis, are exacerbated by overexposure to contaminated waterbodies. Therefore, evaluating the risk accurately requires reliable monitoring of related biomarkers like dopamine (DA) through electrochemical detection. Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have shown great potential in sensors.
