The Kafizas group publish a new method to proudce photoactive Mo-BiVO4 using aerosol assisted CVD. Glad we could assist with analysis of the redox active V precursors used in this process.

Congratulations to Stephen (PhD), Ioanna (MSc), Ryan (MChem) and Tom (PhD) for all contributing to this project recently published in Chemical Science! The study, with collaborators from Warwick Physics and Vrijes Universiteit Brussel, explores the photoactivation of Ti-oxo clusters, with straightforward routes to isolating highly reducing mixed-valent Ti-oxo clusters via a 2-electron (not free radical) pathway. These are easily oxidised under O2, resulting in a peroxide cluster.

Tom's paper out in ChemComm!

Congratulations to Tom (PhD student) and Jack (prevous Masters student) who's work has been published in ChemComm. This article describes the synthesis of a new Cu31-oxo cluster, the largest cu-oxo cluster known with only O-donor ligands. This structure has a condensed Cu+O core making it similar to a CuO nanoparticle. A size-colour relationship is observed in Cu-oxo clusters showing how they smoothly transform from small Cu coordination complexes (blue) into larger clusters (green/yellow) before finally reaching nanoparticles (brown).
