Abstract
The Cover Feature illustrates a kesterite (CZTS)-based multilayer photocathode for NH3 photosynthesis through N2 reduction. The CZTS, CdS, and TiO2 layers work synergistically to capture sunlight and drive the reaction. Pt nanoparticles on TiO2 enhance catalysis, visualized as dynamic molecular interactions. The lush green background symbolizes sustainability, while the solar panel emphasizes renewable energy integration for NH3 production, aligning research on efficient photocatalytic systems. More information can be found in the Research Article by J. Ferreira de Brito and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/cphc.202400737).
期刊介绍:
ChemPhysChem is one of the leading chemistry/physics interdisciplinary journals (ISI Impact Factor 2018: 3.077) for physical chemistry and chemical physics. It is published on behalf of Chemistry Europe, an association of 16 European chemical societies.
ChemPhysChem is an international source for important primary and critical secondary information across the whole field of physical chemistry and chemical physics. It integrates this wide and flourishing field ranging from Solid State and Soft-Matter Research, Electro- and Photochemistry, Femtochemistry and Nanotechnology, Complex Systems, Single-Molecule Research, Clusters and Colloids, Catalysis and Surface Science, Biophysics and Physical Biochemistry, Atmospheric and Environmental Chemistry, and many more topics. ChemPhysChem is peer-reviewed.
