Water is perhaps the most important and most pervasive chemical on our planet. The
influence of water permeates virtually all areas of biochemical, chemical and physical …

The review discusses how CO2 surface chemistry has developed since the early 1950s.
Emphasis is given to studies of well-characterized surfaces of metals, oxides and some …

Mono‐and few‐layer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have been widely used as
saturable absorbers for ultrashort laser pulse generation, but their preparation is …

Noble metal-free photocatalysts are necessary for cost control in practical uses. To achieve
photocatalytic overall water splitting, a non-noble metal photocatalyst comprising N-doped …

We describe an ultrafast transition of the electronic response of optically excited transition
metal β-tungsten with few-femtosecond time resolution. The response moves from a regime …

Abstract Al 1.5 CrFeNiWTi 0.5 high entropy alloy coating with interesting 'island-
like'microstructure containing BCC and Laves phases was designed and produced on Q235 …

Detailed characterization of W species and amorphous material in plasma electrolytic
oxidation (PEO) coatings formed in W-containing electrolyte is important to PEO study. In this …

Quantum mechanical calculations of the structure and properties of a range of Ba x Sc y O z
adsorbate layers on W (0 0 1),(1 1 0), and (1 1 2) surfaces reveal the importance of O …

Preparation of coatings simultaneously exhibiting high hardness and enhanced fracture
resistance is a hot topic, as nowadays used ceramic protective coatings show difficulties to …

Tungsten (W) is an important and versatile transition metal and has a firm place at the heart
of many technologies. A popular experimental technique for the characterization of tungsten …
