Sub-5 nm Ru-based alloys have gained attention as promising electrochemical catalysts for water splitting. However, their synthesis has been constrained by thermodynamic immiscibility, which limits the development of a universally applicable preparation method.
In this study, the research team employed nanosecond laser ultrafast confined alloying (LUCA) to overcome the immiscible-to-miscible transition barrier…

Paper about an alternative paradigm to photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting: the “particle suspension reactor (PSR), forgoes the rigid design in favour of individual PEC particles suspended in solution, a potentially low-cost option compared with planar systems”
