Triode Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Operation Under Sulfur-Poisoning Conditions

Jan Van Herle, Stefan Diethelm, Priscilla Caliandro

The triode solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is a three electrodes configuration. The third electrode, so-called auxiliary, is connected in a way to run in electrolysis mode, while cathode and anode operate in normal fuel cell mode. This mixed operation allows ...

Redox Electrocatalysis of Floating Nanoparticles: Determining Electrocatalytic Properties without the Influence of Solid Supports

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Astrid Johana Olaya Avendano, Micheal Diarmaid Scanlon, Evgeny Smirnov, Thomas James Stockmann, Lucie Josette Renée Rivier

Redox electrocatalysis (catalysis of electron-transfer reactions by floating conductive particles) is discussed from the point-of-view of Fermi level equilibration, and an overall theoretical framework is given. Examples of redox electrocatalysis in soluti ...

Spectroelectrochemical analysis of the mechanism of (photo)electrochemical hydrogen evolution at a catalytic interface

Michael Graetzel, Florian Le Formal, Matthew Thomas Mayer, Stanley David Tilley

Multi-electron heterogeneous catalysis is a pivotal element in the ( photo) electrochemical generation of solar fuels. However, mechanistic studies of these systems are difficult to elucidate by means of electrochemical methods alone. Here we report a spec ...

Role of microstructure on electrode operating mechanisms for mixed ionic electronic conductors: From synchrotron-based 3D reconstruction to electrochemical modeling

Arata Nakajo

A typical La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3-delta (LSCF) electrode was reconstructed by X-ray nanotomography. The new Nano Imaging beamline ID16A-NI of the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) was used to conduct the investigation. Particular attention was ...

Enhanced reactivity of water clusters towards oxidation in water/acetonitrile mixtures as studied by voltammetry at IrO2 nanoparticle modified FTO electrodes

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Manuel Alejandro Méndez Agudelo, Jonnathan Cesar Hidalgo Acosta, Micheal Diarmaid Scanlon

The water oxidation process in acidified water/acetonitrile mixtures was studied by cyclic voltammetry using fluorinated tin oxide (FTO) electrodes modified layer-by-layer with deposited bilayers of positively charged poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) ...

Ionic liquids enhance the electrochemical CO2 reduction catalyzed by MoO2

Xile Hu, Yeonji Oh

Several imidazolium-based ionic liquids significantly enhance the activity of MoO2 for electrochemical reduction of CO2. The over-potential of CO2 reduction is as low as 40 mV. The ionic liquids act as both electrolytes and co-catalysts, which not only lea ...

Highly-Ordered Magneli Ti4O7 Nanotube Arrays as Effective Anodic Material for Electro-oxidation

Christos Comninellis, Caroline Miles

Pure Magneli Ti4O7 nanotube arrays (NTA) were successfully fabricated by reducing TiO2 NTA with hydrogen at 850 degrees C for 30 minutes. The microstructure, composition and electrochemical behavior of the prepared Ti4O7 NTA were characterized by means of ...

Widely available active sites on Ni2P for electrochemical hydrogen evolution - insights from first principles calculations

Xile Hu, Lucas-Alexandre Stern, Ligang Feng, Martin Hangaard Hansen

We present insights into the mechanism and the active site for hydrogen evolution on nickel phosphide (Ni2P). Ni2P was recently discovered to be a very active non-precious hydrogen evolution catalyst. Current literature attributes the activity of Ni2P to a ...
