The Incident Photon-to-Current Efficiency (IPCE) is a key characterization parameter in photoelectrocatalysis and photovoltaic research. It is used to evaluate a material's ability to convert incident photons into photocurrent under illumination at diffe

Electrode polarization refers to the phenomenon where the electrode potential deviates from its equilibrium potential, typically caused by an external current or electric field. This phenomenon reflects the combined effects of electrode reaction kinetics

Recently, a collaborative research team led by the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine member and Rice University Professor Naomi J. Halas and Professor Peter Nordlander published their latest findings in the journal Nature Cataly

Traditional chemical reactions mainly activate reactants through heating, providing the energy needed to overcome thermodynamic barriers and promote the transformation of reactants into products. In a thermocatalytic system, reactant molecules are adsorbe
