	Achieving economical and sustainable artificial photosynthesis (APS) in direct sunlight for liquid fuel production with high efficiency remains an important challenge. A major obstacle in the photoelectrochemical (PEC) oxidation of organic compounds is attaining high selectivity with the desired product(s). This study introduces a novel strategy by integrating BiVO4 quantum dots (BVQDs), structurally and electronically, into the nanopores of commercial TiO2 (BVT for BVQDs integrated in pores of TiO2) to improve solar-driven photocatalysis. The band gap of the BVT photoanode decreases to 2.53 eV as compared to pure TiO2 (3.2 eV), which enhances visible light absorption and charge separation. BVT with Pt as a co-catalyst acts as an APS system, which selectively oxidizes glycerol into lactic acid (100% selectivity at 1 mM glycerol) and glyceric acid (98% selectivity at 100 mM), while simultaneously generating green hydrogen. Selectivity of the product can be further controlled by anaerobic or aerobic conditions as well as the length of the reaction time. Direct integration of BVQDs into TiO2 mesopores significantly enhances charge separation as well as utilization at redox sites. Current work provides key insights into optimizing photocatalytic conditions for highly selective value-added chemical production, which highlights the sustainability and efficacy of TiO2-based semiconductors with quantum dot integration.&lt;/p&gt;

	In this study, cobalt oxide is investigated as a binder-free electrode material for supercapacitor applications. Cobalt oxide nanostructures were directly grown on nickel foam using a simple hydrothermal method and the effect of hydrothermal reaction time on the structure and electrochemical performance was systematically examined. This electrode design eliminates inactive binders and improves electrical contact with the current collector. Structural and morphological analyses confirm the formation of phase-pure cobalt oxide with greater burdock-like nanostructure. Such features promote electrolyte penetration and facilitate rapid ion transport. The optimized electrode exhibits dominant pseudocapacitive behavior arising from reversible cobalt redox reactions and delivers a high specific capacitance of 1616.36 F g-1. The practical performance of the material was further demonstrated in a symmetric supercapacitor device. The device shows excellent cycling stability, retaining 93.84 % of its initial capacitance after 5000 charge-discharge cycles. The enhanced performance is attributed to the binder-free architecture, flower-like morphology and the multivalent redox activity of cobalt oxide. These results highlight the potential of hydrothermally synthesized cobalt oxide electrodes for high-performance supercapacitor applications.&lt;/p&gt;
