    Abstract
    In this study, transition metal phosphide, with a high accessible surface and abundant electroactive centers, was used as an electrocatalyst to fabrication an electrochemical sensor of Gloucose. The direct growth of thin film of nanocomposite can be considered as an efficient method to modify the electrode surface, and the application of these modified electrodes as electrochemical sensors. nanocomposite of transition metal phosphide (CuCoP) were directly grown on Cu(OH)2 nanotubes (as-prepared on GCE) in order to design hierarchical core-shell nanostructure with using efficient, inexpensive and fast method. Here, Cu(OH)2 nanotubes not only served as substrate, but also steer the CuCoP to... 

    Fabrication of Nano-Structure Electrocatalysts for Use in Water Splitting Process

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Maghool, Sina (Author) ; Ghotbi, Siroos (Supervisor) ; Khorasheh, Farhad (Supervisor) ; Asgharinezhad, Ali Akbar (Supervisor) ; Larimi, Afsaneh Sadat (Co-Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The global energy outlook has been altered as a result of mounting concerns regarding fossil fuels. Electrocatalysts have become a favorable alternative for renewable energy production processes, particularly in the fields of hydrogen evolution reactions (HER) and oxygen evolution (OER). This study focuses on the production and enhancement of nanocatalysts, specifically materials based on ZIF-67, for the purpose of water splitting. The initial phase included the synthesis of the ZIF-67 structure through the simple room-temperature coprecipitation process, utilizing cerium as a dual-metal component. The molarity of the cerium was optimized in the ZIF-67 framework to achieve the most desirable... 

    3D ternary Ni: XCo2- xP/C nanoflower/nanourchin arrays grown on HCNs: A highly efficient bi-functional electrocatalyst for boosting hydrogen production via the urea electro-oxidation reaction

    Abstract
    Over the last few years, substantial efforts have been made to develop earth-abundant bi-functional catalysts for urea oxidation and energy-saving electrolytic hydrogen production due to their low cost and the potential to replace traditional noble-metal-based catalysts. Nevertheless, finding a straightforward and effective route to prepare efficient catalysts with unique structural features and optimal supports still is a big challenge. Among the various candidates, metal-organic framework (MOF)-derived materials show great advantages as new kinds of active non-precious catalysts. On the other hand, the controllable integration of MOFs and carbon-based nanomaterials leads to further...
