Sentences with phrase «coupled electron transfer»

Not exact matches

«The direct growth of anchored MoSoy nanocrystals on graphene sheets may enhance the formation of strongly coupled hybrid materials with intimate, seamless electron transfer pathways, thus accelerating the electron transfer rate for the chemical desorption of hydrogen from the catalyst, further reducing the energy required for the reaction to take place,» Sasaki said.

While, molecular charge - transfer crystals exhibiting light — matter interactions have been successfully deployed in optoelectronics, an air - stable molecular material that couples photons and electrons, achieving photostriction through the coupling of light and mechanical degrees of freedom, has not previously been discovered.
