Abstract
With the development of society, energy shortage and environmental problems have become more and more outstanding. Solar energy is a clean and sustainable energy resource, potentially driving energy conversion and environmental remediation reactions. Thus, solar-driven chemistry is an attractive way to solve the two problems. Photothermal chemistry (PTC) is developed to achieve full-spectral utilization of the solar radiation and drive chemical reactions more efficiently under relatively mild conditions. In this review, the mechanisms of PTC are summarized from the aspects of thermal and non-thermal effects, and then the interaction and synergy between these two effects are sorted out. In this paper, distinguishing and quantifying these two effects is discussed to understand PTC processes better and to design PTC catalysts more methodically. However, PTC is still a little far away from practical. Herein, several key points, which must be considered when pushing ahead with the engineering application of PTC, are proposed, along with some workable suggestions on the practical application. This review provides a unique perspective on PTC, focusing on the synergistic effects and pointing out a possible direction for practical application.

Abstract
The selection of experimental conditions leading to a reasonable yield is an important and essential element for the automated development of a synthesis plan and the subsequent synthesis of the target compound. The classical QSPR approach, requiring one-to-one correspondence between chemical structure and a target property, can be used for optimal reaction conditions prediction only on a limited scale when only one condition component (e.g., catalyst or solvent) is considered. However, a particular reaction can proceed under several different conditions. In this paper, we describe the Likelihood Ranking Model representing an artificial neural network that outputs a list of different conditions ranked according to their suitability to a given chemical transformation. Benchmarking calculations demonstrated that our model outperformed some popular approaches to the theoretical assessment of reaction conditions, such as k Nearest Neighbors, and a recurrent artificial neural network performance prediction of condition components (reagents, solvents, catalysts, and temperature). The ability of the Likelihood Ranking model trained on a hydrogenation reactions dataset, (~42,000 reactions) from Reaxys® database, to propose conditions that led to the desired product was validated experimentally on a set of three reactions with rich selectivity issues.

Abstract
Hydroxyl groups are among the major active surface sites over metal oxides. However, their spectroscopic characterizations have been challenging due to limited resolutions, especially on hydroxyl-rich surfaces where strong hydroxyl networks are present. Here, using nanostructured In2O3 as an example, we show significantly enhanced discrimination of the surface hydroxyl groups, owing to the high-resolution 1H NMR spectra performed at a high magnetic field (18.8 T) and a fast magic angle spinning (MAS) of up to 60 kHz. A total of nine kinds of hydroxyl groups were distinguished and their assignments (μ1, μ2, and μ3) were further identified with the assistance of 17O NMR. The spatial distribution of these hydroxyl groups was further explored via two-dimensional (2D) 1H-1H homonuclear correlation experiments with which the complex surface hydroxyl network was unraveled at the atomic level. Moreover, the quantitative analysis of these hydroxyl groups with such high resolution enables further investigations into the physicochemical property and catalytic performance characterizations (in CO2 reduction) of these hydroxyl groups. This work provides insightful understanding on the surface structure/property of the In2O3 nanoparticles and, importantly, may prompt general applications of high-field ultrafast MAS NMR techniques in the study of hydroxyl-rich surfaces on other metal oxide materials.

Abstract
Cascade catalysis of reverse water gas shift (RWGS) and well-established CO hydrogenation holds promise for the conversion of greenhouse gas CO2 and renewable H2 into liquid hydrocarbons and methanol under mild conditions. However, it remains a big challenge to develop low-temperature RWGS catalysts with high activity, selectivity, and stability. Here, we report the design of an efficient RWGS catalyst by encapsulating ruthenium clusters with the size of 1 nm inside hollow silica shells. The spatially confined structure prevents the sintering of Ru clusters while the permeable silica layer allows the diffusion of gaseous reactants and products. This catalyst with reduced particle sizes not only inherits the excellent activity of Ru in CO2 hydrogenation reactions but also exhibits nearly 100% CO selectivity and superior stability at 200-500 °C. The ability to selectively produce CO from CO2 at relatively low temperatures paves the way for the production of value-added fuels from CO2 and renewable H2.

Abstract
Transformation of CO2 into value-added products via photothermal catalysis has become an increasingly popular route to help ameliorate the energy and environmental crisis derived from the continuing use of fossil fuels, as it can integrate light into well-established thermocatalysis processes. The question however remains whether negative CO2 emission could be achieved through photothermal catalytic reactions performed in facilities driven by electricity mainly derived from fossil energy. Herein, we propose universal equations that describe net CO2 emissions generated from operating thermocatalysis and photothermal reverse water-gas shift (RWGS) and Sabatier processes for batch and flow reactors. With these reactions as archetype model systems, the factors that will determine the final amount of effluent CO2 can be determined. The results of this study could provide useful guidelines for the future development of photothermal catalytic systems for CO2 reduction.

Abstract
Indium oxides have been widely applied in many technological areas, but their utilization in lithography has not been developed. Herein, we illustrated a family of unprecedented In12-oxo clusters with a general formula [In12(μ4-O)4(μ2-OH)2(OCH2CH2NHCH2CH2O)8(OR)4X4]X2 (where X = Cl or Br; R = CH3, C6H4NO2 or C6H4F), which not only present the largest size record in the family of indium-oxo clusters (InOCs), but also feature the first molecular model of bixbyite-type In2O3. Moreover, through the labile coordination sites of the robust diethanolamine-stabilized In12-oxo core, these InOCs can be accurately functionalized with different halides and alcohol or phenol derivatives, producing tunable solubility. Based on the high solution stability as confirmed by ESI-MS analysis, homogeneous films can be fabricated using these In12-oxo clusters by the spin-coating method, which can be further used for electron beam lithography (EBL) patterning studies. Accordingly, the above structural regulations have significantly influenced their corresponding film quality and patterning performance, with bromide or p-nitrophenol functionalized In12-oxo clusters displaying better performance of sub-50 nm lines. Thus, the here developed bixbyite-type In12-oxo cluster starts the research on indium-based patterning materials and provides a new platform for future lithography radiation mechanism studies. Bixbyite-like In12-oxo clusters with labile coordination sites show tunable solubility, varying film quality and distinct lithography patterning performance.![]()

Abstract
Solar-driven carbon dioxide (CO2) conversion has gained tremendous attention as a prominent strategy to simultaneously reduce the atmospheric CO2 concentration and convert solar energy into solar fuels in the form of chemical bonds. Numerous efforts have been devoted to diverse photo-driven processes for CO2 conversion, which utilized a multidisciplinary strategy. Among them, the architecture of nanostructured metal-based catalysts is emerging as an eminent solution for the design of catalysts of this field. In this work, we first provide fundamental mechanisms of photochemical, photoelectrochemical, photothermal, and photobio(electro)chemical CO2 reduction processes to achieve an in-deep understanding of vital aspects. Importantly, the recent progress in the catalyst design for each reaction system is discussed and highlighted. Based on these analyses, an overview of photo-driven CO2 reduction on metal-based catalysts for solar fuel production is also spotlighted. Finally, we analyze challenges and prospects for the strategic direction of developments in the field.

Abstract
Nanograined metal oxides are requisite for diverse applications that use large surface area, such as gas sensors and catalysts. However, nanoscale grains are thermodynamically unstable and tend to coarsen at elevated temperatures. Here, we report effective grain growth suppression in metal oxide nanoribbons annealed at high temperature (900°C) by tuning the metal-to-oxygen ratio and confining the nanoribbons. Despite the high annealing temperatures, the average grain size was maintained at ~6 nm, which also retained their structural integrity. We observe that excess oxygen in amorphous tin oxide nanoribbons prevents merging of small grains during crystallization, leading to suppressed grain growth. As an exemplary application, we demonstrate a gas sensor using grain growth–suppressed tin oxide nanoribbons, which exhibited both high sensitivity and unusual long-term operation stability. Our findings provide a previously unknown pathway to simultaneously achieve high performance and excellent thermal stability in nanograined metal oxide nanostructures.

Abstract
Materials that exhibit photothermal effect have attracted enormous research interests due to their ability to strongly absorb light and effectively transform it into heat for a wide range of applications in biomedical, environmental and energy related fields. The past decade has witnessed significant advances in the preparation of a variety of photothermal materials, mainly due to the emergence of many nano-enabled new materials, such as plasmonic metals, stoichiometric/non-stoichiometric semiconductors, and the newly emerging MXenes. These photothermal nanomaterials can be hybridized with other constituents to form functional hybrids or composites for achieving enhanced photothermal performance. In this review, we present the fundamental insight of inorganic photothermal materials, including their photothermal conversion mechanisms/properties as well as their potential applications in various fields. Emphasis is placed on strategic approaches for improving their light harvesting and photothermal conversion capabilities through engineering their nanostructured size, shape, composition, bandgap and so on. Lastly, the underlying challenges and perspectives for future development of photothermal nanomaterials are proposed.

Abstract
Calcium hydroxyphosphate, Ca10 (PO4 )6 (OH)2 , is commonly known as hydroxyapatite (HAP). The acidic calcium and basic phosphate/hydroxide sites in HAP can be modified via isomorphous substitution of calcium and/or hydroxide ions to enable a cornucopia of catalyzed reactions. Herein, isomorphic substitution of Ca2+ ions by Cu2+ ions especially at very low levels of exchange created new analogs of molecular surface frustrated Lewis pairs (SFLPs) in Cux Ca10-x (PO4 )6 (OH)2 , thereby boosting its performance metrics in heterogeneous CO2 photocatalytic hydrogenation. In situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy characterization and density functional theory calculations provided fundamental insights into the catalytically active SFLPs defined as proximal Lewis acidic Cu2+ and Lewis basic OH- . The photocatalytic pathway proceeds through a formate reaction intermediate, which is generated by the reaction of CO2 with heterolytically dissociated H2 on the SFLPs. Given the wealth of information thus uncovered, it is highly likely that this work will spur the further development of similar classes of materials, leading to the advancement and, ultimately, large-scale application of photocatalytic CO2 reduction technologies.

Abstract
The objective of photocatalytic CO2 reduction (PCR) is to achieve high selectivity for a single energy-bearing product with high efficiency and stability. The bulk configuration usually determines charge carrier kinetics, whereas surface atomic arrangement defines the PCR thermodynamic pathway. Concurrent engineering of bulk and surface structures is therefore crucial for achieving the goal of PCR. Herein, an ultrastable and highly selective PCR using homogeneously doped BiOCl nanosheets synthesized via an inventive molten strategy is presented. With B2 O3 as both the molten salt and doping precursor, this new doping approach ensures boron (B) doping from the surface into the bulk with dual functionalities. Bulk B doping mitigates strong excitonic effects confined in 2D BiOCl by significantly reducing exciton binding energies, whereas surface-doped B atoms reconstruct the BiOCl surface by extracting lattice hydroxyl groups, resulting in intimate B-oxygen vacancy (B-OV) associates. These exclusive B-OV associates enable spontaneous CO2 activation, suppress competitive hydrogen evolution and promote the proton-coupled electron transfer step by stabilizing *COOH for selective CO generation. As a result, the homogeneous B-doped BiOCl nanosheets exhibit 98% selectivity for CO2 -to-CO reduction under visible light, with an impressive rate of 83.64 µmol g-1 h-1 and ultrastability for long-term testing of 120 h.

Abstract
RATIONALE In2 O3 is one of the most important semiconductor oxides in modern electronics. Vacuum deposition methods are often used for the preparation of In2 O3 -based nanomaterials. Thus, vaporization thermodynamics is of key importance for process control and optimization. Since the literature data on the vapor composition and partial pressure values for In2 O3 are contradictory, vaporization thermodynamics of In2 O3 needs to be clarified. METHODS Vaporization behavior of In2 O3 was studied using the Knudsen effusion technique in the temperature range 1400-1610 K. Quartz effusion cells were employed. A magnet mass spectrometer with an ordinary focus and a sector-type analyzer was used. Heating of samples and molecular beam ionization were performed by electron impact. The operating ionizing electron energy was 75 eV. RESULTS A specially designed experiment allowed us to determine the individual mass spectrum of the In2 O molecule and, thus, to interpret the mass spectrum of the vapor registered during In2 O3 vaporization. The composition of the equilibrium vapor was quantified and the partial pressures of the vapor species were determined. On the basis of the experimental data, the standard enthalpies of some gaseous and heterogeneous reactions taking place during In2 O3 vaporization and the standard enthalpy of formation of In2 O(g) were calculated. CONCLUSIONS The presence of In species in the vapor over In2 O3 was confirmed and the vapor composition was quantified. Thermodynamic characteristics of In2 O3 vaporization were obtained and a value of the standard enthalpy of formation of In2 O(g) was recommended. These data can be used for further thermodynamic calculations and for evaluating parameters for the synthesis and exploitation of In2 O3 -containing materials.

Abstract
Solar-light driven CO2 reduction into value-added chemicals and fuels emerges as a significant approach for CO2 conversion. However, inefficient electron-hole separation and the complex multi-electrons transfer processes hamper the efficiency of CO2 photoreduction. Herein, we prepare ferroelectric Bi3TiNbO9 nanosheets and employ corona poling to strengthen their ferroelectric polarization to facilitate the bulk charge separation within Bi3TiNbO9 nanosheets. Furthermore, surface oxygen vacancies are introduced to extend the photo-absorption of the synthesized materials and also to promote the adsorption and activation of CO2 molecules on the catalysts' surface. More importantly, the oxygen vacancies exert a pinning effect on ferroelectric domains that enables Bi3TiNbO9 nanosheets to maintain superb ferroelectric polarization, tackling above-mentioned key challenges in photocatalytic CO2 reduction. This work highlights the importance of ferroelectric properties and controlled surface defect engineering, and emphasizes the key roles of tuning bulk and surface properties in enhancing the CO2 photoreduction performance.

Abstract
Catalysis is essential to modern life and has a huge economic impact. The development of new catalysts critically depends on synthetic methods that enable the preparation of tailored nanomaterials. Pulsed laser in liquids synthesis can produce uniform, multicomponent, nonequilibrium nanomaterials with independently and precisely controlled properties, such as size, composition, morphology, defect density, and atomistic structure within the nanoparticle and at its surface. We cover the fundamentals, unique advantages, challenges, and experimental solutions of this powerful technique and review the state-of-the-art of laser-made electrocatalysts for water oxidation, oxygen reduction, hydrogen evolution, nitrogen reduction, carbon dioxide reduction, and organic oxidations, followed by laser-made nanomaterials for light-driven catalytic processes and heterogeneous catalysis of thermochemical processes. We also highlight laser-synthesized nanomaterials for which proposed catalytic applications exist. This review provides a practical guide to how the catalysis community can capitalize on pulsed laser in liquids synthesis to advance catalyst development, by leveraging the synergies of two fields of intensive research.

Abstract
The conversion of CO2 into fuels and feedstock chemicals via photothermal catalysis holds promise for efficient solar energy utilization to tackle the global energy shortage and climate change. Despite recent advances, it is of emerging interest to explore promising materials with excellent photothermal properties to boost the performance of photothermal CO2 catalysis. Here, we report the discovery of MXene materials as superior photothermal supports for metal nanoparticles. As a proof-of-concept study, we demonstrate that Nb2C and Ti3C2, two typical MXene materials, can enhance the photothermal effect and thus boost the photothermal catalytic activity of Ni nanoparticles. A record CO2 conversion rate of 8.50 mol·gNi-1·h-1 is achieved for Nb2C-nanosheet-supported Ni nanoparticles under intense illumination. Our study bridges the gap between photothermal MXene materials and photothermal CO2 catalysis toward more efficient solar-to-chemical energy conversions and stimulates the interest in MXene-supported metal nanoparticles for other heterogeneous catalytic reactions, particularly driven by sunlight.

Abstract
Solar-to-fuel conversion through photocatalytic processes is regarded as promising technology with the potential to reduce reliance on dwindling reserves of fossil fuels and to support the sustainable development of our society. However, conventional semiconductor-based photocatalytic systems suffer from unsatisfactory reaction efficiencies due to limited light harvesting abilities. Recent pioneering work from several groups, including ours, has demonstrated that visible and infrared light can be utilized by plasmonic catalysts not only to induce local heating but also to generate energetic hot carriers for initiating surface catalytic reactions and/or modulating the reaction pathways, resulting in synergistically promoted solar-to-fuel conversion efficiencies. In this perspective, we focus primarily on plasmon-mediated catalysis for thermodynamically uphill reactions converting CO2 and/or H2O into value-added products. We first introduce two types of mechanism and their applications by which reactions on plasmonic nanostructures can be initiated: either by photo-induced hot carriers (plasmonic photocatalysis) or by light-excited phonons (photothermal catalysis). Then, we emphasize examples where the hot carriers and phonon modes act in concert to contribute to the reaction (plasmonic photothermal catalysis), with special attention given to the design concepts and reaction mechanisms of the catalysts. We discuss challenges and future opportunities relating to plasmonic photothermal processes, aiming to promote an understanding of underlying mechanisms and provide guidelines for the rational design and construction of plasmonic catalysts for highly efficient solar-to-fuel conversion.

Abstract
Heterogeneous catalysts often undergo structural transformations when they operate under thermal reaction conditions. These transformations are reflected in their evolving catalytic activity, and a fundamental understanding of the changing nature of active sites is vital for the rational design of solid materials for applications. Beyond thermal catalysis, both photocatalysis and electrocatalysis are topical because they can harness renewable energy to drive uphill reactions that afford commodity chemicals and fuels. Although structural transformations of photocatalysts and electrocatalysts have been observed in operando, the resulting implications for catalytic behaviour are not fully understood. In this Review, we summarize and compare the structural evolution of solid thermal catalysts, electrocatalysts and photocatalysts. We suggest that well-established knowledge of thermal catalysis offers a good basis to understand emerging photocatalysis and electrocatalysis research.

Abstract
The surface frustrated Lewis pairs (SFLPs) on defect-laden metal oxides provide catalytic sites to activate H2 and CO2 molecules and enable efficient gas-phase CO2 photocatalysis. Lattice engineering of metal oxides provides a useful strategy to tailor the reactivity of SFLPs. Herein, a one-step solvothermal synthesis is developed that enables isomorphic replacement of Lewis acidic site In3+ ions in In2O3 by single-site Bi3+ ions, thereby enhancing the propensity to activate CO2 molecules. The so-formed BixIn2-xO3 materials prove to be three orders of magnitude more photoactive for the reverse water gas shift reaction than In2O3 itself, while also exhibiting notable photoactivity towards methanol production. The increased solar absorption efficiency and efficient charge-separation and transfer of BixIn2-xO3 also contribute to the improved photocatalytic performance. These traits exemplify the opportunities that exist for atom-scale engineering in heterogeneous CO2 photocatalysis, another step towards the vision of the solar CO2 refinery. Surface frustrated Lewis pairs (SFLPs) provide a unique class of active sites that enable efficient gas-phase CO2 photocatalysis. How to tailor the reactivity of the SFLPs represents a major challenge, which the authors address here by single-site Bi3+ ion substitution of the SFLPs.

Abstract
Akin to single-site homogeneous catalysis, a long sought-after goal is to achieve reaction site precision in heterogeneous catalysis for chemical control over patterns of activity, selectivity and stability. Herein, we report on metal phosphides as a class of material capable of realizing these attributes and unlock their potential in solar-driven CO2 hydrogenation. Selected as an archetype, Ni12P5 affords a structure based upon highly dispersed nickel nanoclusters integrated into a phosphorus lattice that harvest light intensely across the entire solar spectral range. Motivated by its panchromatic absorption and unique linearly bonded nickel-carbonyl-dominated reaction route, Ni12P5 is found to be a photothermal catalyst for the reverse water gas shift reaction, offering a CO production rate of 960 ± 12 mmol gcat−1 h−1, near 100% selectivity and long-term stability. Successful extension of this idea to Co2P analogs implies that metal phosphide materials are poised as a universal platform for high-rate and highly selective photothermal CO2 catalysis. There exists an urgent need to develop new materials to convert CO2 to useful products. Here, authors demonstrate metal phosphide nanoparticles to enable light-driven CO2 hydrogenation with high activities and near-unity selectivity.
