The emerging energy-saving and environmentally friendly capacitive deionization (CDI) technology has attracted more and more attention. However, it remains a great challenge to develop CDI electrode materials with excellent comprehensive properties. Herein, the porous N, P co-doping Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene (N, P-Ti 3 C 2 T x ) was prepared successfully by combining simple flocculation with an annealing process. Benefitting from the synergistic effect of the combination of porous structure and co-doping of N and P heteroatoms, the N, P-Ti 3 C 2 T x exhibits substantial specific surface area, which provides more surface bounding active sites for electrochemical reactions, thus assisting to boost the CDI performance. As a result, the N, P-Ti 3 C 2 T x exhibited an admirable salt (Na + ) adsorption capacity of 53.3 mg g −1 and exceptional recycling property. Impressively, the N, P-Ti 3 C 2 T x also exhibited superior desalination performance of Pb 2+ , characterized by an exceptionally high desalination capacity of up to 168.2 mg g −1 at 1.2 V, and the corresponding desalination rate reached 0.047 mg g −1 s −1 . Additionally, the deionization mechanism involved was elucidated through a series of characterizations. This work will furnish an effective avenue for the innovative design of MXene-based electrode materials toward high-performance CDI.

By combining the large power density of supercapacitors with the high energy density of ion batteries , a novel zinc-ion hybrid supercapacitor (ZHSC) is proposed and considered a promising candidate. But there are still challenges in the selection and application of reliable cathode materials . Herein, we used a mature and safe one-step hydrothermal method to synthesize N/P co-doped graphene (NPG), which exhibited a unique three-dimensional structure and a large specific surface area, showing great advantages as cathode to assemble Zn//NPG ZHSC with zinc foil. In the 1 M ZnSO 4 solution, the ZHSC shows superior electrochemical performance, which presents an excellent specific capacitance of 210.2 F g −1 under a wide working voltage of 1.8 V, and it achieves both a maximum energy density of 94.6 Wh kg −1 and a large power density of 4500 W kg −1 . More importantly, the capacitance retention rate remains 82% and a coulomb efficiency of ∼100% is achieved after 15,000 cycles. Overall, the results of this study highlight the efficient synthesis and excellent performance of NPG cathode materials, and also promote the rapid development and great application of high-performance Zn-ion hybrid capacitors.

A tetrahedral DNA probe can effectively overcome the steric effects of a single-stranded probe to obtain well-controlled density and minimize nonspecific adsorption. Herein, a highly sensitive electrochemical biosensor is fabricated for determination of protein using a tetrahedral DNA probe and rolling circle amplification (RCA). N- and P-co-doped graphene (NP-rGO) is prepared, and AuNPs are then electrodeposited on it for DNA probe immobilization. Benefitting from the synergistic effects of the excellent electrical conductivity of NP-rGO, the stability of the tetrahedral DNA probe and the signal amplification of RCA, the biosensor achieves a low limit of 3.53 × 10 −14 M for thrombin and a wide linear range from 1 × 10 −13 to 1 × 10 −7 M. This study provides a sensitive and effective method for the detection of protein in peripheral biofluids, and paves the way for future clinical diagnostics and treatment of disease.

Development of high-efficiency oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts under neutral conditions has made little research progress. In this work, we synthesized a three-dimensional porous N/P codoped carbon nanosheet composites (CNP@PNS) by high-temperature thermal treatment of dicyandiamide, starch, and triphenylphosphine and subsequent porous structure-making treatment using the NaCl molten salt template. In the neutral solution, the electrocatalytic performance of the CNP@PNS-4 catalyst exhibits an onset potential of 0.98 V (vs reversible hydrogen electrode) and a half-wave potential of 0.91 V for ORR, which greatly surpasses commercial Pt/C (40%). Three kinds of neutral metal–air batteries (Zn–air, Al–air, and Fe–air) using the prepared samples as cathodic catalysts were constructed, corresponding to the maximum power density of 120.2, 78.3, and 18.9 mW·cm–2, respectively. Also, they reveal outstanding discharge stability under different current densities. The density functional theory calculation depicts the reduction of the free energy of the determining step and subsequent decline of the overpotential for ORR.

Transition metal phosphides (TMPs) are ideal anodes for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to their high theoretical specific capacity and suitable lithiation potential. However, transition metal phosphides suffer from the shortcomings of large volume change and low electrical conductivity, resulting in poor rate performance and short cycle life. In this paper, nanofibers consisting of amorphous FeP x nanoparticles and N, P-codoped carbon substrate are synthesized by electrospinning and in-situ phosphidation to address these challenges. The amorphous structure with no grain boundary and isotropy can provide more Li + transport channels and Li + storage sites. Moreover, the N, P-codoped carbon substrate can effectively improve the electronic conductivity of the electrodes and the structural robustness of the nanofibers. Due to the unique structure and composition, the FeP x /C nanofibers exhibit excellent electrochemical performance when used as anodes for LIBs (stable cycling over 2200 cycles at 1 A g −1 ). It is suggested that the large pseudo-capacitance and fast Li + diffusion resulting from the amorphous structure are important reasons for the excellent electrochemical performance of FeP x /C nanofibers. This work provides a new idea to optimize the electrochemical performance of TMPs, which is expected to be used in other conversion anode materials.

Oxygen vacancy-enriched N/P co-doped cobalt ferrite (NPCFO) was synthesized using ionic liquid as N and P sources, and then the catalytic performance and mechanism of NPCFO upon peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation for the degradation of organic pollutants were investigated. The as-synthesized NPCFO-700 exhibited excellent catalytic performance in activating PMS , and the degradation rate constant of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) increased with the increase of OV concentration in NPCFO-x. EPR analysis confirmed the existence of · OH, SO 4 ·- , and 1 O 2 in the NPCFO-700/PMS system, in which OV could induce the generation of 1 O 2 by PMS adsorption and successive capture, and also served as electronic transfer medium to accelerate the redox cycle of M 2+ /M 3+ (M denotes Co or Fe) for the generation of radical to synergistically degrade organic pollutants. In addition, the contribution of free radical and nonradical to 4-CP degradation was observed to be strongly dependent on solution pH, and SO 4 ·- was the major ROS in 4-CP degradation under acid and alkaline condition, while 1 O 2 was involved in the degradation of 4-CP under neutral condition due its selective oxidation capacity, as evidenced by the fact that such organic pollutants with ionization potential (IP) below 9.0 eV were more easily attacked by 1 O 2 . The present study provided a novel insight into the development of transition metal-based heterogeneous catalyst containing massive OV for high-efficient PMS activation and degradation of organic pollutants.
