TL;DR: In this article, stable aqueous dispersions of polymer-coated graphitic nanoplatelets can be prepared via an exfoliation/in-situ reduction of graphite oxide in the presence of poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate).

TL;DR: The constituent, the structure and the properties of the carbon-metal oxide composites, including the synergistic effects of the composite on the performance of supercapacitors in terms of specific capacitance, energy density, power density, rate capability and cyclic stability are described.

TL;DR: Experiments combined with the density functional theory (DFT) calculation have been performed to understand the underlying photocatalysis mechanism of the nitrogen-doped titania nanobelts, finding that nitrogen doping allows visible-light-responsive photocatalytic activity but lowers UV- light-responsive photochemical activity.

TL;DR: RET from a plasmonic metal to a semiconductor is a viable and efficient mechanism that can be used to guide the design of photocatalysts, photovoltaics, and other optoelectronic devices.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the barrier, progress and future direction of research on the correlation of the chemical constituent, size, dimensionality, architecture, crystal structure, microstructure and electronic band structure of photocatalysts (or photoelectrodes) with five vital processes including light absorption, charge separation, migration and recombination as well as surface redox reactions.
