The electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CORR) offers potential for sustainable production and greenhouse gas mitigation, particularly with renewable energy integration. However, its widespread application is hindered by expensive catalysts, low selectivity, and limited current density. This study addresses these challenges by developing a low-mass-loading two-dimensional (2D) BiOSe catalyst chemical vapor deposition (CVD).

Hydrate-based carbon capture and storage (HBCS) is a sustainable and promising approach to combating global warming by utilizing water, which is a ubiquitous resource. Here, we report a comprehensive study of CO hydrate formation in dry water (DW), a water-in-air dispersion confined in silica particles, for improving the kinetics of hydrate growth. Utilizing a combination of a home-built high-pressure reactor, in situ Raman spectroscopy, and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), we elucidate the crystal structure, growth dynamics, and morphology of CO hydrates formed in DW, with and without the kinetic hydrate promoter, l-tryptophan.

The photoluminescence (PL) and Raman spectra of the CsZrCl crystal over a wide range of pressures were studied in this work for the first time. PL measurements were performed up to 10 GPa, while the Raman spectra were measured up to 20 GPa. The PL data revealed a linear blue shift of the emission maximum from about 2.

Moiré superlattices, created by stacking different van der Waals materials at twist angles, have emerged as a versatile platform for exploring intriguing phenomena such as topological properties, superconductivity, the quantum anomalous Hall effect, and the unconventional Stark effect. Additionally, the formation of moiré superlattice potential can generate spontaneous symmetry breaking, leading to an anisotropic optical response and electronic transport behavior. Herein, we propose a two-step chemical vapor deposition (CVD) strategy for synthesizing WS/SbS moiré superlattices.

High-energy-density materials (HEDMs) are crucial in various applications, from energy storage to defense technologies. Transition metal polynitrides are promising candidates for HEDMs. Using single-crystal synchrotron X-ray diffraction, we investigated the crystal structures of niobium nitride, specifically NbN and NbN, under high-pressure conditions of up to 86 GPa.
