ACTIVATING THE HYDROGEN EVOLUTION REACTION IN LOW-DIMENSIONAL CARBON BY PARTIAL HYDROGENATION: ROLE OF THE HYBRID SP2-SP3 ORBITAL INTERFACE

Activating the hydrogen evolution reaction in low-dimensional carbon by partial hydrogenation: Role of the hybrid sp2-sp3 orbital interface

Developing highly efficient catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and understanding their mechanism Removers is crucial for establishing the hydrogen economy.Carbon-based materials are particularly attractive as HER catalysts because of their abundance and morphological variety.Herein, using density functional theory (DFT) calculations

The agricultural heritage of Lampedusa (Pelagie Archipelago, South Italy) and its key role for cultivar and wildlife conservation

As occurred on many other small Mediterranean islands, agricultural activity at Lampedusa (Strait of Sicily) underwent a very strong decline in terms of surface area during the second half of the last century.In particular, cereal crops have ceased and horticulture is disappearing, while vineyards still occupy a reduced area but are quickly vanishi
