We report for the first time support dependent activity and selectivity of Ni-rich nickel phosphide catalysts CO2 hydrogenation. New hydrogenation are needed to commercialise reverse water–gas shift reaction (RWGS) which can feed captured carbon as feedstock traditionally fossil fuel-based processes, well develop flexible power-to-gas schemes that synthesise chemicals on demand using surplus re...

In view of the industrial importance high-grade unsaturated ether (UE) and inconvenience acquiring compound, herein, a series low-cost Al-Ni-P catalysts in robust AlPO4/Ni2P structure possessing novel bi-functional catalytic features (hydrogenation activation acid catalysis) were innovated, testified to be efficient for directly synthesizing UE with superior yield up 97% from selective hydrogen...

Hydrogen production through electrochemical water splitting has gained significant attention owing to its environmental benefits over traditional methods. However, designing an efficient electrocatalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in alkaline electrolyte remains a challenge. In this study, colloidal Pd‐doped Ni2P nanoparticles were prepared via thermal decomposition‐based strategy...

Black phosphorus (BP) is a new class of 2D material which holds promise for next generation transistor applications owing to its intrinsically superior carrier mobility properties. Among other issues, achieving good ohmic contacts with low source-drain parasitic resistance in BP field-effect transistors (FET) remains a challenge. For the first time, we report a new contact technology that emplo...
