Electrochemical Promotion of Catalysis (EPOC) with alkali ionic conductors has been widely studied in literature due to its operational advantages vs. alkali classical promotion. This phenomenon allows to electrochemically control the alkali promoter coverage on a catalyst surface in the course of the catalytic reacti…

The mechanism for the large Stokes Shifts of InGaN/GaN structures is under debate. Here, we report a systematic study on the Stokes shift of semi-polar (112¯2) InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs) with a wide spectral range from green (490 nm) to yellow (590 nm) by means of both photoluminescence excitation and tim…

Dark matter in spiral galaxies like the Milky Way may take the form of a dark plasma. Hidden sector dark matter charged under an unbroken U(1)' gauge interaction provides a simple and well defined particle physics model realising this possibility. The assumed U(1)' neutrality of the Universe then implies (at least) tw…

The electrocatalytic activities of the MnO2/C composites are examined in Li-O2 cells as the cathode catalysts. Hierarchically mesoporous carbon-supported manganese oxide (MnO2/C) composites are prepared using a combination of soft template and hydrothermal methods. The composites are characterized by X-ray powder diff…

Phthalocyanines (Pcs) are used as sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) because of their stability and intense absorption in the red and near-IR regions. Impressive progress has been made in photovoltaic efficiencies by introduction of bulky peripheral substituents to help suppress macrocycle aggregation.…

A bounded domain of eddy-current problems leads to discrete eigenvalues and it allows one to satisfy the interface conditions between coupled regions simultaneously along two coordinates. The eigenvalues are zeros of complex domain functions that, for many eddy-current applications, have the same trigonometric form du…
