A newly identified mechanism reveals how proton motion can subtly yet powerfully influence triplet energy transfer in ...

Recently, the team led by Academician Wei-Hong Zhu at East China University of Science and Technology proposed a novel photo-rearrangement reaction of diarylethenes induced by intramolecular proton ...

The photoreaction cycle of the blue-light receptor protein BLUF domains involves forward and reverse proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) reactions, yet a unified cross-species mechanism is lacking ...

Chemists have mapped how proton-coupled electron transfers happen at the surface of an electrode. Their results could help researchers design more efficient fuel cells, batteries, or other energy ...

Whether in our bodies or in fuel cells, phosphoric acid plays an important role in many chemical processes because it is exceptionally good at transporting charges. Researchers from the Department of ...

Antioxidants play an indispensable role in mitigating oxidative stress by neutralising free radicals through a series of interrelated electron transfer reactions. Among the principal mechanisms are ...
