Electrode electronic structure strongly affects reorganization energy
—
What the study found The study found that the electrode density of states, the distribution of electronic states available in the electrode, plays a central role in governing reorganization energy during interfacial electron transfer. The authors report that this effect outweighs the electrode’s conventionally assumed role. Why the authors say this matters The authors conclude…

Sunlight-driven photocatalyst cleaves PFAS carbon–fluorine bonds
Z-scheme photocatalyst CuInS2/BiOCl composite enables visible-light-driven degradation of PFAS through directed charge transfer, achieving 96% removal in sunlight-driven continuous-flow systems.

Cryo-EM reveals multiple cytochrome P450 reductase conformations
