Enhanced Catalytic Activity of TiO2/rGO Nanocomposites with Squaraine Dye for Photocatalytic Wastewater Treatment

Wastewater treatment has stimulated researchers to develop highly efficient catalysts for the degradation of organic pollutants. The present work focuses on the design and investigation of a titanium dioxide (TiO2)-based photocatalytic system with improved catalytic ability under...

Geometry-Based Description for Hydrogen Bond Organization in Small Water Clusters Derived from Spectroscopic and Quantum Chemical Data

Hydrogen-bond organization plays a central role in determining the structure and properties of water from molecular to macroscopic scales. In this study, we propose a geometry-based descriptor for small hydrogen-bonded water clusters, (H2O)n, with n = 2–6. The central element of...
