Titanium and Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles Are Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer Agents

Schrauben, Joel N., Hayoun, Rebecca, Valdez, Carolyn N., Braten, Miles, Fridley, Lila, Mayer, James M.·2012·Science

Abstract

Pluses and Minuses: Because of their high surface area and tunable electronic structure, nanoparticles are of interest for next-generation photocatalysis and light-harvesting applications. Many of these applications involve electron transfer events at the particle surface after light absorption. Schrauben et al. (p. 1298 ) now show, through a series of radical trap kinetic studies, that proton transfer can concurrently accompany electron transfer at the solvent interfaces of two common nanoparticle formulations (oxides of titanium and of zinc). The results may help in the optimization of particle structure and energetics.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
