Sr-based perovskites represent enormous potential as supercapacitor electrode materials. However, the wide-temperature supercapacitor application for perovskite-based electrodes has not been studied yet. Thus, there is a pressing need for comprehensive research and investigation in the wide-temperature range to unlock the full capabilities of Sr-based perovskite and pave the way for its successful integration into versatile supercapacitor systems. In this study, SrCo 1- x Fe x O 3-δ ( x = 0.05, 0.10, 0.15 and 0.20) were synthesized by solid-state sintering method, as oxygen-intercalated electrode materials for wide temperature-tolerant supercapacitors. SrCo 1- x Fe x O 3-δ contains orthogonal and monoclinic phases for x = 0.05 and x = 0.10, and a stable monoclinic phase can be obtained when the substitution amount is at least 15 %. The best electrochemical performance was obtained in x = 0.10, with a specific capacitance of 526.6 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 . This can be attributed to the lowest resistance and richest oxygen vacancies of SrCo 0.9 Fe 0.1 O 3-δ , which are conducive to oxygen-intercalated energy storage. The SrCo 0.9 Fe 0.1 O 3-δ @CC//AC@CC supercapacitor device displays a working voltage of 1.6 V and a stable long-term cycle life with 85.71 % capacity retention after 5000 cycles. Furthermore, the temperature-dependent electrochemical characterization indicates an improvement of electrochemical performance for both electrode and device as temperature increases, which may be ascribed to the enhanced ion migration in the electrolyte. From 0 to 85 °C, the specific capacitance of SrCo 0.9 Fe 0.1 O 3-δ @CC electrode increases from 91.8 to 1035.9 F g −1 at 1A g −1 , and the energy density of the device also increases from 7.6 to 26.2 Wh kg −1 when the power density is 800 W kg −1 .

Photocatalysis for H 2 O 2 production suffers from low carrier utilization and slow reaction kinetics. Herein, a photocatalytic system supported by a SrCoO 3 -MoS 2 (SCOS) heterojunction, which possessed a unique S-O electron transport channel, was proposed to facilitate H 2 O 2 production under condition where glycerol served as a sacrificial agent. The SCOS heterojunction achieved a remarkable yield of 15.90 mmol g −1 h −1 H 2 O 2 production, 3.7 times higher than the base component SCO. The construction of the heterojunction enriched the oxygen vacancies on the catalyst surface, facilitated photogenerated charge separation, and promoted the adsorption of O 2 , reducing the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) energy barrier. Besides, glycerol served as a unique proton donor, efficiently captured holes to enhance H 2 O 2 production, and generated valuable by-products including glyceric acid and dihydroxyacetone. Furthermore, SCOS exhibited excellent stability over repeated cycles with consistent H 2 O 2 yields. This study offers an efficient photocatalytic system and demonstrates glycerol’s potential in green oxidation processes.

Driven by the increasing global energy demand, the development of innovative energy conversion and storage systems is becoming more and more urgent. As one of the attractive means, water splitting has attracted widespread attention because of its great potential in storing electricity in the form of chemical fuel which also makes it a promising solution to the utilization of non-grid electricity generated by solar or wind. The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is generally deemed as the key rate-limiting step of water splitting, and thus studying efficient OER electrocatalysts with a low overpotential and good stability is of vital importance. Here, we successfully prepared an OER catalyst with excellent electrochemical performance through a simple anion doping. Firstly, a stable cubic perovskite SrCoO3−δ was prepared by anion F-doping instead of traditional A and/or B site doping. Secondly, SrCoO2.85−δF0.15 demonstrates excellent OER activity superior to its parent hexagonal compound H-Sr2Co2O5 and those perovskites prepared via complicated A- and/or B-site doping. DFT calculations and XPS investigations reveal that the cubic structure and the highly oxidative oxygen species (O22−/O−) via F− doping jointly contribute to the better OER properties of SrCoO2.85−δF0.15. Our work brings forth a promising strategy to stabilize cubic structures from hexagonal ones via a simple anion doping strategy, which may open a new avenue for the development of even more effective OER catalysts and may be applied in many other fields related to structure transformation, in addition to energy and catalysis fields.

Perovskite oxides and molybdenum sulfide (MoS 2 ) are both promising catalysts for advanced oxidation processes in environmental pollutant degradation. Herein, a core-shell structure of MoS 2 encapsulating Sr-Co perovskite microcrystalline (SC@MoS 2 ) was used to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for degradation of organics. Levofloxacin (LVF) degradation by SC@MoS 2 /PMS system was improved obviously, and 0.2-SC@MoS 2 exhibited the optimized activation for PMS with best LVF degradation performance (97%) within 15 min. In the 0.2-SC@MoS 2 /PMS system, the dosage of catalyst was the key determinant of LVF degradation. Simultaneously, 0.2-SC@MoS 2 achieved outstanding reusability and good degradation capacity of different contaminants. The encapsulation of molybdenum disulfide layer facilitated electron transfer between PMS and core-shell structure. According to the EPR analysis and quenching experiments, both radicals (SO 4 − and OH), and nonradical ( 1 O 2 ) were involved in the degradation of LVF. Under visible light irradiation, O 2 − participated in the reaction and enhanced LVF degradation efficiency, because the valence band and conduction band of components are different. Furthermore, the density functional theory (DFT) calculation, intermediates determination and Toxicity Estimation Software Tool (T.E.S.T) analysis provided meaningful support in the degradation pathways and ecological risks of LVF residues.

Surface engineering has been considered as a promising technology to enhance the cathode's oxygen reduction reaction kinetics (ORR) for protonic ceramic fuel cells (PCFCs). In this work, the infiltrated SrCoO 3-δ (SCO) nanoparticles are incorporated onto the Ba 0.5 Sr 0.5 Co 0.8 Fe 0.2 O 3-δ (BSCF) cathode via the surface engineering. The effect of infiltration volume on the distribution density of nanoparticles for electrochemical performance is investigated. The polarization resistance (R p ) of 2 μL SCO-BSCF symmetrical cell shows a value of 0.108 Ω cm 2 at 700 °C in dry air, and exhibit higher stability than the bare BSCF cathode in wet atmospheres. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations show that SCO-BSCF facilitates the oxygen hydrogenation process. Molecular dynamics (MD) also indicate that the SCO nanoparticles are beneficial to the oxygen adsorption. Furthermore, the PCFC with 2 μL SCO-BSCF cathode achieves the maximum power density of 938.55 mW cm −2 at 700 °C. These findings suggest that the 2 μL SCO-BSCF could potentially be utilized as a cathode material for PCFCs.

SrCoO 3-δ (SCO) as a perovskite material delivers enormous potential in electrolyte application for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) due to its high mixed conductivity and excellent catalytic activity toward oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity. However, SCO is suffering from the drawback of bad thermal stability at high temperatures, which limits its practical development. In our study, the doping strategy of Sc 3+ is adapted to enhance the stability and promote the ORR catalytic activity of SCO cathode. The perovskite material SrSc χ Co 1-χ O 3-δ (SS χ CO, χ=0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3) is synthesized by solid phase method and used as the cathode to fabricate the fuel cell. The crystal structure, oxygen transport performance, electrical conductivity and stability of the SS χ CO serial cathode are characterized. The results show that the Sc 3+ doping strategy can significantly improve the phase structure and electrochemical stability of SCO, and further facilitate ionic conduction. Among the SS χ CO serial cathode, the material with 0.2 Sc doping exhibits the lowest polarization impedance (0.35 Ω cm 2 ) at 550 °C, highlighting its superior catalytic activity toward the ORR. Notably, the fuel cell fabricated from this optimized material achieves an impressive maximum power density of 748 mW cm −2 .

Transition metal oxides are considered ideal electrocatalyst materials due to their low cost and high intrinsic activity. Among them, SrCoO 3- δ has received increasing attention due to its multi-phase structure and tunable electronic properties, though its OER reaction kinetics and catalysis stability are unsatisfactory. Herein, based on a simple one-step solid-state reaction method, we use a small amount of rare earth Y ions (10 %) to transform H-SCO 2.52 from a hexagonal structure to a stable cubic perovskite Sr 0.9 Y 0.1 CoO 3− δ . While broadening the atomic ratio of Co and Fe in the B-site under the cubic perovskite Sr 0.9 Y 0.1 Co 1- x Fe x O 3− δ ( x = 0–1), the relationship between the B-site electronic state, oxygen vacancies, and OER performance has been explored. Sr 0.9 Y 0.1 Co 0.2 Fe 0.8 O 3− δ with a high concentration of oxygen vacancies, exhibits the lowest overpotential of 277 mV and maintains stability at 10 mA cm −2 for 88 h. The valence states of Fe and Co atoms in SYC0.2F0.8 O are optimized (Fe 2+ ∼50.81 %, Co 2+ ∼19.39 %), and the oxygen evolution activity is enhanced by electrochemical reconfiguration to form high-valence Fe and Co ions. Selective leaching of Sr ions via electrochemical surface reconstruction activates FeOOH and CoOOH amorphous layer active sites on the catalyst surface, significantly enhancing reaction kinetics.

Reasonable design and couple of efficient co-catalysts on photoanodes for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are crucial for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. However, the interaction principles and charge transport mechanisms at the interface remain unclear. Herein, SrCoO 3-δ perovskite single-crystal quantum dots (PSC QDs) are coupled onto the BiVO 4 surface via M-O-M bonds, forming a three-dimensional porous topological network structure. The band alignment between BiVO 4 and SrCoO 3-δ is favorable for charge carrier separation. The interfacial field in BiVO 4 /SrCoO 3-δ via M-O-M bonds facilitates the redistribution of charges by detailed experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The enhanced band bending at the interface promotes efficient charge separation and fast hole transfer. The introduction of SrCoO 3-δ PSC QDs modulates the electronic structure for BiVO 4 , inducing an increase in the electron density near the Bi/V sites. The p-type SrCoO 3-δ , with Co 3 + -O 2- -Co 4+ double exchange interactions, improves conductivity and provides active Co sites for OER, reducing the reaction energy barrier of the rate-determining step (RDS) (*O→*OOH) and thus facilitating rapid water oxidation. A significant photocurrent density of 5.05 mA cm −2 at 1.23 V vs. REH is achieved for the BiVO 4 /SrCoO 3-δ photoanode. Meanwhile, temporal and spatial evolution for charge carrier transfer kinetics and OER dynamics were systematically investigated for the BiVO 4 /SrCoO 3-δ photoanode. This work sheds new insights into the design and understanding of efficient co-catalysts for solar water splitting.

This study presents a straightforward chemical approach to induce cationic surface defects on SrCoO 3-δ (SCO) perovskites by selectively etching a-site Sr elements on the surface. The modified SCO-30 catalyst from this method exhibits an optimized thickness of cobalt-rich amorphous layer enriched with oxygen vacancies. This modification enhances the trifunctional catalytic activity for oxygen evolution reaction (OER), oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in an alkaline electrolyte. Importantly, the perovskite's structure remains unchanged during the surface engineering process. These findings underscore cationic defect engineering as an effective strategy for the rational design of high-performance electrocatalysts, showcasing potential applications in diverse electrochemical processes.

The nanocomposite of MoS 2 embedded manganese ferrite doped perovskite (SrCoO 3 /MnFe 2 O 4 /MoS 2 , abbreviated as SMM) was successfully synthesized for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation under visible-light. It was optimized that the SMM-3 (mass ratio of MoS 2 modified nanocomposite was 0.3) exhibited excellent catalytic performance to activate PMS for levofloxacin (LVF) degradation, with the degradation efficiency of 95.1% in 20 min. Besides, SMM-3 was able to efficiently degrade LVF under real water matrix. The quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis revealed that SO 4 •- and HO • played a dominant role in reaction. Due to the photocatalytic property of nanocomposites, the visible light could excite electrons to react with oxygen and form O 2 •- , which further reacted with HO • to produce 1 O 2 . In the reaction process, the rapid redox cycle of metal ions (including Co, Mn, Fe and Mo) boosted the activation of PMS and promoted the degradation of LVF in a short time. The Density functional theory (DFT) calculation and LC-MS/MS further revealed that oxidation of piperazine ring, decarboxylation and defluorination processes were the main LVF degradation pathways. Finally, the toxicity analysis based on Toxicity Estimation Software Tool (T.E.S.T) verified the ecological risks of transformation residues.
