The subject of this review is the colloidal quantum dot (QD) and specifically the interaction of
the QD with proximate molecules. It covers various functions of these molecules, including (i) …

The demand for hydrogen over the coming decade is expected to grow for both traditional
uses (ammonia, methanol, refinery) and running fuel cells. At least in the near future, this …

The search for clean renewable energy sources is of central importance to address the ever-
increasing challenges of diminishing fossil fuels and global warming. Photocatalytic …

The ability to adjust the mechanical, optical, magnetic, electric, and chemical properties of
materials via the quantum confinement effect is well-understood. Here, we provide the first …

CdS crystals with different morphologies, nanorods, sheets, microspheres and irregular
particles have been obtained by changing the solvothermal solvent (ethylenediamine …

This paper describes the use of cadmium sulfide quantum dots (CdS QDs) as visible-light
photocatalysts for the reduction of nitrobenzene to aniline through six sequential …

The composite of different semiconductor nanoparticles may facilitate the charge separation
and transfer because the difference in the band edge positions creates the potential gradient …

Cadmium sulphide nanoparticles (6–12nm) are prepared by a precipitation process using
different zeolite matrices as templates. The nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Vis …

Nanocomposite photocatalysts of CdS nanoparticles immobilized on Au core–SiO2 shell
particles, in which the SiO2 layer acts as an insulator layer to prevent direct electron transfer …

With the escalating demand for clean and sustainable energy sources, hydrogen emerges
as a paramount contender, necessitating efficient and innovative production methods of …
