  • Patent number: 12371802
    Abstract: Three-dimensional (3D) hollow nanosphere electrocatalysts that convert CO2 into formate with high current density and Faradaic efficiency (FE). The SnO2 nanospheres were constructed from small, interconnected SnO2 nanocrystals. The size of the constituent SnO2 nanocrystals was controlled between 2-10 nm by varying the calcination temperature and observed a clear correlation between nanocrystal size and formate production. In situ Raman and time-dependent X-ray diffraction measurements confirmed that SnO2 nanocrystals were reduced to metallic Sn and resisted microparticle agglomeration during CO2 reduction. The nanosphere catalysts outperformed comparably sized, non-structured SnO2 nanoparticles and commercially-available SnO2 with a heterogeneous size distribution.

  • Patent number: 12375538
    Abstract: Media, methods, and systems are disclosed for ad hoc, ambient, synchronous multimedia collaboration in a group-based communication system. Embodiments of the invention provide a way for users to quickly discover and initiate real-time collaboration sessions among groups of other users without the burden and overhead of a conventional call or video meeting. Users can quickly and easily discover and switch into and out of these synchronous multimedia collaboration sessions at any time, without disrupting the sessions for other participating users. This enables a diverse set of users to experience a rich multimedia collaboration session collaboration as a convenient ad hoc forum rather than a burdensome scheduled event.
