A paper with Martin as one of the corresponding authors was just published in Nanoscale describing the formation of a new electrode material of nickel-iron nanosheets on a carbon paper. The material is made by hydrothermal decomposition of FeCl2 and of Ni(NO3)2 in an autoclave vessel. Depending on the ratio of […]

Wojtek is the main author of a new paper published in J. Phys. Chem. C on hydrogen peroxide generation at liquid|liquid interfaces. This is the latest in a series of papers (e.g. 1-5) about various reactions at the interface between immiscible liquids published in collaboration with Hubert Girault’s group in […]
It took some time, but finally, in a paper in Electrochimica Acta, results from Marcin’s master thesis were published. In this paper a layer-by-layer method is used to create an electrode with carbon nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes with opposite charges. The electrode was then used for detection of thiocholine at […]
Martin had some part in a new publication in Nanoscale where electrorefining of gold from an ultramicroelectrode was used to deposit nanoparticles on an ITO electode. By changing the deposition conditions the structures could be tailored to some degree for efficient oxygen reduction or to be used a relatively well […]
We just had a paper published in the Journal of Power Sources.* This paper has been a long time coming. It was work started ages ago by Robert and Adrianna. The goal was to make a photoelectrochemical biofuel cell (PECBFC) based on a dye-sensitised titanium oxide nanotube photoanode and an […]
Another paper in the series of investigations of H2O2-generation at liquid|liquid interfaces was just accepted in Chemical Communications. In this case it’s an RTIL|water interface where oxygen is reduced by an electron donor, decamethylferrocene in the ionic liquid, with protons coming from the acidic water phase. This is work done […]
A second paper from Dawid’s visit to Bath was just published. This is mostly the work of Sunyhik and describes a new type of electrode made from carbon microspheres bound together by polystyrene. The electrode is very easy to make and was in this case used as a porous carbon […]
Congratulations to Dawid. The first of two papers from his visit to Frank Marken in Bath just appeared online. The paper is about electrocatalytic conversion of the model antioxidant diphenylcarbinol (DBC) by the mediator TEMPO (2,2,6,6- tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy). In this case the DBC is a solid crystal on the electrode surface […]
