The (1- x )Bi 1+ y (Fe 0.96 Mg 0.02 Ti 0.02 )O 3 - x BaTiO 3 (abbreviated as B 1+ y FMT- x BT) system was designed to explore the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) separating rhombohedral ( R ) and tetragonal ( T ) phases, and the mechanism of performance enhancement. The phase structure of samples was discreetly investigated by X-ray diffraction, and Rietveld refinement results of the XRD data revealed that the B 1+ y FMT- x BT ceramics consist of an R phase at x = 0.24, two R and T phases at 0.26 ≤ x ≤ 0.32, and a single T phase at x = 0.34. Because of the MPB and the improvement of resistivity with adding excess Bi compensation, excellent piezoelectric properties of d 33 = 198 pC/N and k p = 30.9%, as well as high Curie temperature T C = 497 °C were achieved in the B 1+ y FMT- x BT system at x = 0.30 and y = 0.02. Here, the large d 33 = 198 pC/N which is the maximum value for the BF-BT-Bi(Mg,Ti)O 3 system so far, and high T C = 497 °C suggest that Bi(Fe,Mg,Ti)O 3 -BaTiO 3 ceramics have good prospects in high-temperature piezoelectric devices.

Single atom Fe sites, doped in CN materials, exhibit outstanding electrochemical activity for CO2-to-CO conversion. The pyrolysis of ZIF8 is a controllable method for fabricating isolated single atom metal sites. In this study, we propose a new strategy to increase the ratio of Fe in ZIF8 precursors by synergistically replacing Zn2+ with Bi3+ and Fe3+. After precursor pyrolysis, the obtained Bi/Fe–N–C catalysts, consisting of Bi sites and pyrrole-type Fe–Nx sites, serve as efficient electrocatalysts for the CO2RR. The results show that the optimized catalyst loaded with 94.8 mg per kgCat Fe exhibits a high FECO of >90.1% over a wide potential range of −0.4 to −0.7 VRHE (98.2% at −0.5 VRHE). Insights into the electrochemical reaction mechanism show that this successful design of Bi/Fe–N–C catalysts can provide a stable catalytic site to form *COOH, thus achieving energy-efficient electrochemical CO2 reduction to CO.

Graphical Using macadamia nut shell from Yunnan as raw material to prepare antibacterial material can save resources. Combining NiO with AC, adding Bi and Fe to optimize antimicrobial properties and magnetic properties.A kind of antibacterial, adsorption-degradable, recyclable and reusable material was constructed.The composite materials show a good prospect in the practical application of water treatment. Although inorganic antibacterial materials that use photocatalytic technology are widely used to inhibit bacterial growth in water bodies, the external light environment limits the efficient utilization of photocatalytic antibacterial materials. The antibacterial materials are usually in powder form and are not conducive to recycling and reuse, limiting their development in practical applications. The main antibacterial ingredient (nickel oxide) was combined with Macadamia nutshell activated carbon (AC) to maintain efficient contact between bacteria and antibacterial active ingredients to apply the material for water treatment. First, different activators (H 3 PO 4 , ZnCl 2 , and KOH) were used to prepare activated carbon (AC) from Macadamia nutshells. Among the three activators, the AC prepared with H 3 PO 4 exhibited the largest specific surface area with well-dispersed pores. Then, Bi and Fe were doped to AC-NiO to improve their antibacterial and magnetic properties. After doping, the antibacterial rate increased to 95% with significantly improved magnetic properties. Moreover, AC-NiO/Bi and AC-NiO/Fe exhibited three antibacterial mechanisms: physical damage, ionic dissolution, and oxidative stress. Finally, the antibacterial test was performed on real water samples from Dianchi Lake in China. Results suggested that AC-NiO/Bi and AC-NiO/Fe could destroy microorganisms in river water samples. The material showed significant adsorption and degradation efficiency for malachite green, methylene blue, and methyl orange dyes. Since the composite material possessed excellent magnetic separation performance, it was easily recovered after use, effectively avoiding secondary pollution while reducing the material cost in practical applications.

Defect microstructures, particularly dislocations, are pivotal in determining the functional properties of ferroelectric thin films. While their density is routinely considered, the critical role of their spatial configuration has remained largely unexplored and difficult to control. Here, we develop a controlled self-assembly strategy for dislocations in Bi(Fe,Mn)O 3 thin films on Ni-Cr that directly addresses this challenge. By employing a LaNiO 3 buffer layer, we template a discontinuous-columnar grain structure and guide the self-assembly of edge dislocations along grain boundaries in a topologically-protected configuration. The resulting ordered microstructure promotes a more uniform strain field and more coherent FeO 6 octahedral tilting, significantly enhances polarization homogeneity, leading to a lower domain-switching barrier and a more uniform domain pinning effect. Consequently, the BFMO thin film exhibits dramatically superior aging stability after 60 days at 60 °C, exhibiting far smaller reductions in remanent polarization (~20%) and coercive field (~35%) compared to the BFMO thin film grown directly on Ni-Cr. These findings establish a defect engineering paradigm wherein the deliberate dislocation rearrangement is leveraged to unlock superior ferroelectric performance.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have recently gained attention as a highly promising category of photocatalytic materials, showing great potential in the degradation of organic dyes such as Rhodamine B (RhB). Nonetheless, the mono-metal MOF materials in this application are often constrained by their limited light absorption capabilities and their propensity for recombination with carriers. The combination of different metal-based MOFs to form heterogeneous reactors could present a promising approach for the removal of dyes from water. In this work, a new CAU-17/MIL-100(Fe) Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst composed of two MOFs with the same ligands is reported to realize the efficient degradation of dyes in water. The combination of the two MOFs results in a significant enhancement of the surface open sites, optical responsivity range, and charge-separating efficiency through synergistic effects. In addition, the capture experiments conducted on the photocatalytic process have verified that ∙O2−and h+are the primary active species. Consequently, CAU-17/MIL-100(Fe) exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity and stability. The degradation rate of the optimal CAU-17/MIL-100(Fe) photocatalyst was 34.55 times that of CAU-17 and 3.60 times that of MIL-100(Fe). Our work provides a new strategy for exploring the visible-light degradation of RhB in bimetallic MOF composites.

Bi, Fe, and Ti ternary co-doped ZrO 2 (BFT-ZrO 2 ) nanocomposites have been prepared by a sol-gel process and used as both adsorbent and matrix for the enrichment and determination of small molecules by surface-enhanced laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SELDI-TOF MS). The BFT-ZrO 2 nanocomposites not only can selectively enrich a wide variety of low-mass toxic pollutants but can also be used as an excellent matrix to enhance the laser desorption/ionization efficiency with low background noise and uniform co-crystalline film. Low limits of detection (LODs) (0.1 pg mL −1 for bisphenol A (BPA), 2 pg mL −1 for tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), 0.1 pg mL −1 for alizarin (AZ), 0.001 pg mL −1 for bisphenol S (BPS), 0.01 pg mL −1 for indigo blue (ID), 0.01 pg mL −1 for pentachlorophenol (PCP), 100 pg mL −1 for estradiol (E2), 0.001 pg mL −1 for cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), 0.1 pg mL −1 for crystal violet (CV), 1 pg mL −1 for malachite green (MG), 0.01 pg mL −1 for rhodamine B (RhB), and 0.01 pg mL −1 for perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) were achieved. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) of shot-to-shot are 9.4–24% and of sample-to-sample 5.2–17%. The BFT-ZrO 2 matrix was successfully applied to the determination of TBBPA and BPA in tea samples. This method shows a new strategy for determination of toxic compounds in tea.

Fe-based metal–organic frameworks (Fe-MOFs) have been extensively studied as fascinating photocatalysts due to their tunable structure and appealing light response. However, the application of traditional three-dimensional (3D) Fe-MOFs is limited by rapid carrier recombination and inaccessible active sites. In this work, a novel two-dimensional (2D) Bi decorated Fe-MOFs nanosheet photocatalyst was constructed, which exhibits significantly enhanced solar-driven photocatalytic activity due to the synergistic effect of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and surface high-density exposed metal active sites. Unlike 3D structures, 2D nanosheets enable surface densely exposed Fe-O clusters, which can be conveniently triggered by incident light to improve light response. 2D Fe-MOFs exhibit narrower bandgap and faster electron transfer thanks to the superior electronic effects of ultrathin nanosheets, including quantum confinement, electron delocalization and induction effects. Moreover, the unique 2D structure drastically reduces mass transfer resistance and guarantees quick pollutant diffusion, thus achieving adequate contact between pollutants and more accessible reactive sites. Bi nanoparticles (NPs), a non-precious plasma metal, further facilitate carrier separation and migration through LSPR effect. Driven by local electromagnetic field, photoinduced hot electrons move from Bi NPs to 2D Fe-MOFs, where they contribute to the production of active species. Meanwhile, light scattering effect of Bi NPs endows the catalyst with boosted light absorption by prolonging the incident photons path. With carbamazepine as target pollutant, the photocatalysis rate of 2D Bi decorated Fe-MOFs (Bi@Fe-MOFs) under solar light is 10.3 times that of 3D Fe-MOFs. This work provides new insights for designing MOFs photocatalysts with efficient solar-driven photocatalytic water purification.
