Structure, Optical Properties, and Photocatalytic Activity towards H2 Generation and CO2 Reduction of GaN Nanowires via Vapor-Liquid-Solid Process by Hong Pang, Lequan Liu, Shuxin Ouyang, Hua Xu, Yunxiang Li, Defa Wang

“…The results indicate that the as-prepared GaN nanowires with a large aspect ratio are well crystallized in the hexagonal wurtzite structure, and a slight blue shift appears in both the absorption edge and emission peak probably due to the quantization effect. Photocatalytic H2 evolution over the as-prepared GaN nanowires is performed with the incorporation of Pt or Rh as the cocatalyst, exhibiting greatly enhanced capability compared to the GaN powder tested under the same conditions. …”

Coupling cobalt single-atom catalyst with recyclable LiBr redox mediator enables stable LiOH-based Li-O2 batteries by Kang Huang, Zhixiu Lu, Shilong Dai, Chunyu Cui, Nam Dong Kim, Huilong Fei

“…Cobalt single atom catalysts (Co-SACs) have been exploited to mediate the direct 4e− oxygen reduction reaction for generating LiOH discharge products, but their inferior oxygen evolution activity renders the battery low energy efficiency and poor cycling life. …”

Light-regulated microRNAs shape dynamic gene expression in the zebrafish circadian clock. by Zuo Wang, Shuang Wang, Yi Bi, Alessandra Boiti, Shengxiang Zhang, Daniela Vallone, Xianyong Lan, Nicholas S Foulkes, Haiyu Zhao

“…Circadian clocks in zebrafish peripheral tissues and even zebrafish-derived cell lines are entrainable by direct light exposure thus providing unique insight into the function and evolution of light regulatory pathways. Our previous work has revealed that light-induced gene transcription is a key step in the entrainment of the circadian clock as well as enabling the more general adaptation of zebrafish cells to sunlight exposure. …”
