The Attack of the Photocatalytic Microrobots!
The attack of the photocatalytic microrobots! We have intended to write a bit about visible-light decomposition of contaminants for a while... so what better entry into the topic than a story about self-propelled autonomous microrobots that can...
Using Multiphoton Excitation To Generate Potent Photooxidants
Our review of a recent Wickens paper describing the formation of powerful new photooxidants through a mechanism of multiphoton excitation.
Potpourri Catalysis – Fascinating Photoredox Chemistry With Organic Dyes
Add dried flower petals to your photochemistry reaction? This group did. Their paper on photoredox chemistry with organic dyes is brilliant.
The 20 Must Read Photochemistry Papers from 2020
Many of these papers move the field farther into unimaginable areas, while others find photochemical replacements for traditional reactions solving an unmet need.
