Elemental-Doped Catalysts for Photoelectrochemical CO2 Conversion to Solar Fuels
Solar-driven photoelectrochemical (PEC) carbon dioxide (CO2) conversion to valuable chemicals, combining the advantages of photocatalysis and electrocatalysis, represents a promising approach toward establishing a carbon-neutral society and harnessing solar energy. Photoelectrode materials doped with metals and/or nonmetals have shown promise in achieving high CO2 reduction efficiency. Metal or nonmetal doping entails introducing a heteroelement into the semiconductor, thereby modifying the band potentials of the semiconductor through the addition of a defective state. This alteration may improve the charge transfer kinetics of the catalysis. Furthermore, doping aids in creating active CO2 adsorption offers anchoring sites for CO2 molecules and can promote product selectivity. This review aims to provide a concise summary of elemental-doped photoelectrodes for converting CO2 into fuels through PEC processes. Several key factors affecting the performance of PEC CO2 reduction are discussed, including the interaction of reactants with catalysts, reaction conditions, and the impact of the photoelectrode. Moreover, various PEC CO2 reduction systems are discussed, with a specific focus on enhancing the efficiency of CO2 reduction. Finally, a summary of key considering aspects for further development of the PEC CO2 reduction is provided. © 2024 Wiley-VCH GmbH.FALSEsciescopu
Solvent-Driven Dynamics: Crafting Tailored Transformations of Cu(II)-Based MOFs
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a sort of crystalline porous coordination polymers composed of metal ions and organic linkers, have been intensively studied for their ability to take up nonpolar gas-phase molecules such as ethane and ethylene. In this context, interpenetrated MOFs, where multiple framework nets are entwined, have been considered promising materials for capturing nonpolar molecules due to their relatively higher stability and smaller micropores. This study explores a solvent-assisted reversible strategy to interpenetrate and deinterpenetrate a Cu(II)-based MOF, namely, MOF-143 (noninterpenetrated form) and MOF-14 (doubly interpenetrated forms). Interpenetration was achieved using protic solvents with small molecular sizes such as water, methanol, and ethanol, while deinterpenetration was accomplished with a Lewis-basic solvent, pyridine. Additionally, this study investigates the adsorptive separation of ethane and ethylene, which is a significant application in the chemical industry. The results showed that interpenetrated MOF-14 exhibited higher ethane and ethylene uptakes compared to the noninterpenetrated MOF-143 due to narrower micropores. Furthermore, we demonstrate that pristine MOF-14 displayed higher ethane selectivity than transformed MOF-14 from MOF-143 by identifying the “fraction of micropore volume” as a key factor influencing ethane uptake. These findings highlight the potential of controlled transformations between interpenetrated and noninterpenetrated MOFs, anticipating that larger MOF crystals with narrower micropores and higher crystallinity will be more suitable for selective gas capture and separation applications. © 2024 American Chemical Society.FALSEsciescopu
데이터 패턴 기반의 뱅뱅 위상 검출기를 활용한 이퀄라이저 적용 기법
Equalizer AdaptationThis paper proposes a pattern-dependent accumulator (PDA) based bang-bang (BB) CDR for equalizer adaptation. The proposed structure suppresses the bandwidth reduction of the data path by connecting PDA in parallel with the data path. The output of the bang-bang phase detector (BBPD) and the number of occurrences of specific data sequence patterns are accumulated as the expected value (EV) to utilize the stochastic characteristics of BBPD output. A continuous-time linear equalizer (CTLE) is employed as an equalizer, and the PDA output controls the zero frequency of CTLE. The PDA output is divided into three phases in accordance with the EV of the data sequence pattern, which exhibits the state of each equalizer. The proposed structure is simulated using MATLAB. The result of the simulation exhibits that the proposed standard of EV applies to the five channels. Since each channel has different attenuation, this result introduces that the PDA is capable of detecting the characteristics of each channel. Keywords : Bang-bang phase detector clock and data recovery (BB CDR), Bang-bang phase detector (BBPD), Continuous-time linear equalizer (CTLE), Expected value (EV), Inter-symbol interference (ISI)|본 논문에서는 이퀄라이저 적응을 위한 PDA(pattern-dependent accumulator) 기반 뱅뱅 위상 검출기가 포함된 클럭 및 데이터 복구 회로를 제안한다. 제안된 구조는 PDA를 데이터 경로와 병렬로 연결함으로써 데이터 경로의 대역폭 감소를 방지한다. 또한, 뱅뱅 위상 검출기의 출력과 특정 데이터 시퀀스 패턴의 발생 횟수를 기댓값으로 누적하여 뱅뱅 위상 검출기가 생성한 출력의 확률적 특성을 활용한다. 이퀄라이저로는 연속 시간 선형 이퀄라이저가 사용되며, PDA 출력은 연속 시간 선형 이퀄라이저의 영점 주파수를 제어한다.
PDA 출력은 각 이퀄라이저의 상태를 나타내는 데이터 시퀀스 패턴의 기댓값에 따라 최적의 상태를 포함한 3단계로 구분된다. 제안된 구조는 MATLAB을 사용하여 시뮬레이션 결과를 실험 결과로 정리하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과 제안된 기댓값의 기준이 5개 채널에 적용되며, 각 채널마다 채널 감쇠가 다르기 때문에 PDA가 각 채널의 특성을 감지할 수 있음을 의미한다. 이퀄라이저 적응을 위해 본 논문에서 제안된 방식은 데이터 통신의 품질을 향상시킬 수 있다. 이전 연구에서는 데이터 경로에 이퀄라이저의 상태를 모니터링하는 회로를 추가하고 데이터 신호의 대역폭을 줄였다. 따라서 데이터 상태를 실시간으로 모니터링하고, 데이터 경로에 회로를 추가하지 않는 방식에 대한 연구가 필요했다. 제안된 이퀄라이저 적응 기법은 이퀄라이저의 상태를 모니터링하는 회로를 데이터 경로와 병렬로 연결하여 대역폭을 확보한다. 또한, 뱅뱅 위상 검출기 출력의 확률적 특성을 이용하여 채널에 상관없이 최적화된 등화 상태를 결정할 수 있다.

Vitamin C-induced CO2 capture enables high-rate ethylene production in CO2 electroreduction
High-rate production of multicarbon chemicals via the electrochemical CO2 reduction can be achieved by efficient CO2 mass transport. A key challenge for C−C coupling in high-current-density CO2 reduction is how to promote *CO formation and dimerization. Here, we report molecularly enhanced CO2-to-*CO conversion and *CO dimerization for high-rate ethylene production. Nanoconfinement of ascorbic acid by graphene quantum dots enables immobilization and redox reversibility of ascorbic acid in heterogeneous electrocatalysts. Cu nanowire with ascorbic acid nanoconfined by graphene quantum dots (cAA-CuNW) demonstrates high-rate ethylene production with a Faradaic efficiency of 60.7% and a partial current density of 539 mA/cm2, a 2.9-fold improvement over that of pristine CuNW. Furthermore, under low CO2 ratio of 33%, cAA-CuNW still exhibits efficient ethylene production with a Faradaic efficiency of 41.8%. We find that cAA-CuNW increases *CO coverage and optimizes the *CO binding mode ensemble between atop and bridge for efficient C−C coupling. A mechanistic study reveals that ascorbic acid can facilitate *CO formation and dimerization by favorable electron and proton transfer with strong hydrogen bonding. © 2024, The Author(s).TRUEsciescopu
