- How to utilise nitrogen gas sustainably, which nature is doing since billion years in the form of nitrogen fixation by nitrogenase enzyme. In this review article, A. Braun et.al summarise the past, present and future of ammonia based fuel, fertiliser. The electrochemical nitrogen fixation which is one of the research interest of Debajeet K. Bora, is currently making a boom in sustainable energy generation research. Followed by this, top notch spectroscopist Stephan P Cramer, Hongxin Wang, Lars Lauterbach and Jinghua Guo (synchrotron based) also contributed here in the understanding of N-K edge spectrum of nitrogen based compounds and vibration dynamics of Fe-Mo cluster in a nitrogenase ENZYME with nuclear resonance vibrational spectroscopy (NRVS).
Congratulations Purvika, a final year graduate student for publishing her work in the journal Materials Science in Semiconductor Processing. Here, we describe our finding of quasicrystalline symmetry in a Hematite nano octahedron.
