Hydrogen generation by photocatalytic water-splitting holds great promise for addressing the serious global energy and environmental crises, and has recently received significant attention from researchers. In this work, a method of assembling GeC/MXY (M = Zr, Hf; X, Y = S, Se) heterojunctions (HJs) by combining GeC and MXY monolayers (MLs) to construct direct Z-scheme photocatalytic systems is proposed. Based on first-principles calculations, we found that all the GeC/MXY HJs are stable van der Waals (vdW) HJs with indirect bandgaps.

Design: Cross-sectional study.
Methods: A total of 20 NCP patients and 20 age-matched controls were recruited.
Background: There is increasing evidence that being resilient negates the deleterious impacts of stress and promote academic success. To develop an insight into how important resilience is, it is vital to explore how higher education students perceive and develop resilience.
Objectives: The purpose of this review was to gather students' experiences of their resilience journey in an educational setting.
Goal: This paper offers a new approach to model physiological tremor aiming at attenuating undesired vibrations of the tip of microsurgical instruments.
Method: Several tremor modeling algorithms, such as the weighted Fourier linear combiner (wFLC), have proved effective. They, however, treat the three-dimensional (3-D) tremor signal as three independent 1-D signals in the x-, y-, and z-axes.
