Addressing the electric field papers
The ChemRev review didn’t open, but I’ll use its abstract snippet for citation. There’s also an ACS JACS Au paper on electric fields, from 2024, which we can mention as a computational methodology. I’ll include other relevant papers, especially on nickel-based systems, as requested. These papers feature NiFe LDH heterojunctions and other advanced materials engineering.
Focusing on nickel-based ammonia synthesis papers
For ammonia synthesis, we’ll primarily keep it to NiO/La2O3 under electric fields and relevant nickel-based catalysts, sticking to the user’s request. For computations, I’ll include DFT studies and related topics like Ni/ZrO2 under fields and electrocatalysis. The user also asked for recent papers – 2024-2026 – and some classics. Let’s cover those.
Preparing citation sections with clarity for the user
We’ll focus on four sections for citations, organized clearly in a bullet list format for readability:
A) Most relevant papers from the last year (electric field + nickel-based).
B) Computation-focused studies (DFT/microkinetics).
C) Methods/reviews on field measurement & modeling.
D) Suggested search keywords and abbreviations like BIEF, ELEF, and “electrified catalysis.” We'll add access notes if any sources are restricted.
Organizing citations for sources
To keep things clear and avoid raw URLs, I'll focus on citations:
- Field-Enhanced Catalysis perspective, Applied Catalysis B (2026), covering advanced DFT and ML.
- External field-assisted catalysis review in eScience (2025), focusing on general approaches.
- NiO/La2O3 under electric field for ammonia synthesis, with specific details available.
- Hydrogen production from ammonia decomposition over nickel-based catalysts—2024 publication.
- Ni3S2@NiFe-LDH for OER, J. Mater. Chem. A (2025).
Organizing nickel-electrochemical field research
I'll summarize recent studies on nickel-based electrocatalysts. Key sources include 2025 papers on modified Ni hydroxide for OER with low overpotentials, NiFe heterojunctions, and dual-field engineering in Ni-Co composites. Several studies also discuss DFT, operando Raman, and methane DRM under external fields. I'll also include a 2016 classic paper for context.
Clarifying experimental vs. computational research
I'll provide an overview of studies that focus on nickel-based electrocatalysts. Some papers combine experiments and DFT, like NiFe LDH or Ni3S2 catalysts. Others may only address experimental results (e.g., ammonia synthesis, methane DRM). For computational suggestions, I’ll mention relevant techniques like grand canonical DFT and dipole layer modeling.
Clarifying directional focus and providing methods
The user likely wants a focus on Ni-based catalysts related to electric fields in catalysis, rather than battery materials. I'll suggest a moderate list with both catalysis and Ni-rich layered cathodes—keeping the electric field reference flexible. For the user’s query, I'll recommend specific search terms and databases (e.g., Web of Science, Google Scholar) and keywords like "BIEF". No UI needed here.
Structuring curated list and future search guidance
I’m going to provide a well-structured response with sections focusing on recent papers related to Ni-based catalysts and electric fields, including both experimental and computational studies. I’ll give specific papers, such as on H2 production and electrified DRM. I'll also suggest effective search strings and databases for future research.
