This paper reviews the structure and principle of semiconductor-based gas sensors, the synthesis methods of single atom catalysts, the mechanisms by which single atom catalysts enhance gas sensitivity ...

National University of Singapore (NUS) chemists have developed an “anchoring-borrowing” strategy, combined with facet engineering, to develop a new class of artful single-atom catalysts (ASACs). These ...

Researchers tested a strategy for developing single-atom catalysts that may help us develop more efficient methods for water purification. All humans need clean water to live. However, purifying water ...

A recent article in Nature Nanotechnology introduced a novel approach to enhance iridium catalyst performance by coordinating iridium single atoms (Ir 1) with cobalt–iron hydroxides (Co,Fe)-OH and ...

Traditional catalysts often waste material because only surface atoms participate in reactions, while the bulk material goes untouched. Single-atom catalysts (SACs) overcome this inefficiency by ...

A research team at the Politecnico di Milano has developed an innovative single-atom catalyst capable of selectively adapting its chemical activity. This is a crucial step forward in sustainable ...

Hydrogen peroxide is widely used but energy-intensive to produce. A new machine-learning framework helps find catalysts that ...

A team in Milan has developed a first-of-its-kind single-atom catalyst that acts like a molecular switch, enabling cleaner, more adaptable chemical reactions. Stable, recyclable, and eco-friendly, it ...
