Article Abstract
We synthesized an ion pair comprising cationic and anionic Ir(III) photosensitizers ([][]) for photocatalytic CO reduction and showed that the cationic component imparts stability, while the cyclometalating ligands in the anionic component ensure effective visible-light absorption. The triplet excited state of [] is the key photoredox species in this system and is mainly generated through the transfer of triplet excitation energy from the anionic moiety due to Coulombic interactions and appropriate triplet energy alignment between the two ionic components. The positive photosensitization effect of ion pairing was demonstrated by photocatalytic CO reduction in cooperation with a Re(I) molecular catalyst incorporated into a vesicle membrane.

Considering the complexities of electronics waste management to meet the requirements of digital-age technologies, this article underscores the pressing need for eco-friendly, economical, and sustainable engineering solutions. Here, it uniquely focuses on bacteriogenic metallic and semiconducting nano-systems as a promising yet underexplored solution for sustainable materials innovation. Unlike conventional green nanofabrication methods involving plants or eukaryotic microbes, bacteria possess numerous merits for fabrication, including ease of cultivation, a wide spectrum of genera, abundance, prompt cell division efficacy, genetic elasticity, and high bio-reduction/oxidation efficacy that make them highly adaptable platforms for engineered nanostructures.

Increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration necessitates innovative approaches to transform CO into valuable compounds utilizing solar energy. The photocatalytic CO reduction reaction (PC CRR) offers a sustainable solution, yet wide band gaps, rapid electron-hole recombination, and poor CO adsorption capacity limit traditional metal oxide semiconductors for the PC CRR. This review systematically evaluates recent engineering advances in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) as efficient photocatalysts for the PC CRR.

Producing olefins by carbon dioxide (CO) hydrogenation is a long-standing goal. The usual products are multicarbon mixtures because the critical step of heterolytic hydrogen (H) dissociation at high temperatures complicates selectivity control. In this study, we report that irradiating gold-titanium dioxide at 365 nanometers induces heterolytic H dissociation at ambient temperature.
