Abstract
A Zr-based metal-organic framework has been synthesized and employed as a catalyst for photochemical carbon dioxide reduction coupled with water oxidation. The catalyst shows significant carbon dioxide reduction property with concomitant water oxidation. The catalyst has broad visible light as well as UV light absorption property, which is further confirmed from electronic absorption spectroscopy. Formic acid was the only reduced product from carbon dioxide with a turn-over frequency (TOF) of 0.69 h-1 in addition to oxygen, which was produced with a TOF of 0.54 h-1 . No external photosensitizer is used and the ligand itself acts as the light harvester. The efficient and selective photochemical carbon dioxide reduction to formic acid with concomitant water oxidation using Zr-based MOF as catalyst is thus demonstrated here.

Abstract
Microlens arrays are key elements for light management in optoelectronic devices. The recent advancement in the wearable intelligent electronics has driven the development of flexible microlenses. In this work, we show a controllable and scalable surface-droplet-based strategy to create unconventional flexible polymer microlens arrays. The technique is underpinned by the morphological transition of femtoliter liquid on the surface of a microlens surrounded by a planar area. We found that the droplet liquid wetted the rim of the microlens first and gradually moved upward to the microlens surface with an increase in the liquid volume. The morphology evolution of the droplet is in good agreement with the predication from our simulations based on the interfacial energy minimization under the condition of the pinned boundary. The shape of the droplet on the microlens is well controlled by the droplet volume, aspect ratio of the microlens, and the interfacial energy of the droplets on the microlens. As a result, the obtained structures of one microlens partially covered by a droplet can be produced in arrays over a large scale, serving as templates for fabricating transparent polymer double microlens arrays for improved light emission from the optoelectronic device.

Abstract
Polyoxometalates (POMs) are a diverse class of anionic metal-oxo clusters with intriguing chemical and physical properties. Owing to unrivaled versatility and structural variation, POMs have been extensively utilized for catalysis for a plethora of reactions. In this focused review, the applications of POMs as promising catalysts or co-catalysts for CO2 conversion, including CO2 photo/electro reduction and CO2 as a carbonyl source for the carbonylation process are summarized. A brief perspective on the potentiality in this field is proposed.

Abstract
The catalytic conversion of CO2 into valuable chemicals and fuels has attracted increasing attention, providing a promising route for mitigating the greenhouse effect of CO2 and also meeting the global energy demand. Among many homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts for CO2 reduction, this mini-review is focused on heme and nonheme metal complexes that act as effective catalysts for the electrocatalytic and photocatalytic reduction of CO2. Because metalloporphyrinoids show strong absorption in the visible region, which is sensitive to the oxidation states of the metals and ligands, they are suited for the detection of reactive intermediates in the catalytic CO2 reduction cycle by electronic absorption spectroscopy. The first part of this review deals with the catalytic mechanism for the one-electron reduction of CO2 to oxalic acid with heme and nonheme metal complexes, with an emphasis on how the formation of highly energetic CO2˙ is avoided. Then, the catalytic mechanism of two-electron reduction of CO2 to produce CO and H2O is compared with that to produce HCOOH. The effect of metals and ligands of the heme and nonheme complexes on the CO or HCOOH product selectivity is also discussed. The catalytic mechanisms of multi-electron reduction of CO2 to methanol (six-electron reduced product) and methane (eight-electron reduced product) are also discussed for both electrocatalytic and photocatalytic systems.

Abstract
Visible light propelled nanomotors are a class of highly sought after active matter. Here we report a gold decorated semiconductor and a soft-oxometalate based TiO2-{Mo7}-Au nanomotor which can be propelled diffusiophoretically on exposure to visible light and show excellent photocatalytic activity. These systems exclude the use of any harsh toxic chemical as fuel and exhibit a speed of 10 μm s-1 in water. Their motion can also be controlled by rapid switching of light. We use these photocatalytic nanomotors for environmental cleansing as they can facilitate the removal of organic pollutants from water under visible light. In this work we have demonstrated the removal of two model organic pollutants methylene blue and benzyl bromide from water using these nanomotors.

Abstract
A soft-oxometalate (SOM) based on Mo and V i.e. {MoV9} in their highest oxidation state reduces CO2 to HCOOH selectively in water. Catalysis initiates without the use of any photosensitizer and solvent water acts as the sacrificial electron donor which gets oxidized to generate oxygen. Electrons and protons released in this process reduce CO2 to HCOOH.
