Nanoporous gold (np-Au), because of its high surface area-to-volume ratio, excellent conductivity, chemical inertness, physical stability, biocompatibility, easily tunable pores, and plasmonic properties, has attracted much interested in the field of nanotechnology. It has promising applications in the fields of catalysis, bio/chemical sensing, drug delivery, biomolecules separation and purific...

Electrochemical properties of various rock-shaped-CuO/graphite (G) composites and monoclinic structure CuO nanoparticles as the cathode versus a zinc plate as the anode in a 4M NaOH electrolyte were elucidated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and chronopotentiometry (CP) in a two electrode configuration cell. Various values of G 9, 16 and 28 wt% were prepared and studied as catho...

Radical photo-cross-linking of polymers has been at the forefront in development biomedical applications to meet many biomaterial design criteria needed address clinical and healthcare challenges, particularly relation regenerative restorative medicine strategies, treat damaged or diseased tissues organs. Exciting new hybrid designs, elegantly expanding range properties available individual pol...

An optically transparent thin-layer electrochemical (OTTLE) cell with a locally extended optical path has been developed in order to perform vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy on chiral molecules prepared in specific oxidation states by means of electrochemical reduction or oxidation. The new design of the electrochemical cell successfully addresses the technical challenges invol...

Photoelectrocatalysis is a hybrid photon/electron-driven process that benefits from the synergistic effects of both processes to enhance and stabilize generation disinfecting oxidants. an easy operate technology can be scaled-up or scaled-down for various water treatment applications as low-cost decentralized systems. This review article describes fundamentals photoelectrocatalysis, applied dis...
