Developing an efficient oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalyst is the footstone of many electrochemical energy conversion devices. Herein, a cobalt–manganese bimetallic metal–organic framework (MOF) is developed as an efficient OER catalyst (denoted as Co 3 Mn 1 BDC). The Co 3 Mn 1 BDC nanosheets demonstrate advantages in specific surface area, pore size distribution comparing with monometallic Co BDC and Mn BDC. The performance investigations demonstrate that the doping of Mn in Co-based MOFs facilitates the electrochemical area, charge transfer efficiency, reaction kinetics, and turnover frequency. As a consequence, the Co 3 Mn 1 BDC exhibits a low overpotential of 289 mV at current of 10 mA cm −2 and a favorable Tafel slope of 56.8 mV dec −1 on glassy carbon electrode, which is better than IrO 2 . When the catalyst is loaded on Ni foam, the overpotential and Tafel slope are further decreased to 231 mV and 50.8 mV dec −1 . Moreover, the Raman spectrum confirms that the Co 3 Mn 1 BDC can be transformed into active CoOOH, suggesting the bright prospect in electrocatalysis devices as “precatalyst”.

Replacing the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) with the thermodynamically favorable glycerol oxidation reaction (GOR) offers a promising approach for producing high-value chemicals. However, this process remains limited by slow kinetics and low selectivity. In this study, a novel manganese-doped Ni 7 P 3 catalyst (Mn-Ni 7 P 3 /NF-1) was synthesized via a two-step method. The Mn-Ni 7 P 3 /NF-1 catalyst achieved a current density of 10 mA cm -2 at 1.306 V vs. RHE and demonstrated a high formic acid Faradaic efficiency of 95.26% at 1.35 V vs. RHE. This enhanced GOR performance is attributed to the porous nanostructure, which increases exposure of active sites, and the electronic structure modulation resulting from Mn doping. This study presents an effective approach for the reasonable design of highly active and stable electrocatalysts for designing highly active and stable electrocatalysts applicable to GOR and other processes relevant to biodiesel byproducts.

In this work, transition metal ion- doped zinc-based quantum dots (QDs) are synthesized via a greener controllable method to avoid the toxicity of the traditional cadmium-based QDs and broaden the tunable emission. Herein, the tunable emission of Cu-doped ZnInS/ZnS core-shell QDs (Cu:ZnInS/ZnS) can cover from 500 to 620 nm by varying the Cu dopant concentration from 1 to 20% and the maximum quantum yield can reach 49.8%. Based on the single-doped QDs, Cu,Mn co-doped ZnInS/ZnS core-shell QDs (Cu,Mn:ZnInS/ZnS) with a photoluminance (PL) quantum yield of 30.4% are obtained. All the as-synthesized QDs have the zinc blende structure and the average size is about 3.55 nm. Besides, the interaction mechanism between the Cu and Mn dopant luminescence centers is proposed in this work, which is rarely investigated in the previous report. Diffusion priority and energy transfer between these two dopants are supposed to play an important role in the co-doped QDs and Cu ions could affect the splitting of Mn d states. Color coordinates of these doped QDs show the line-tunability from (0.200, 0.397) to (0.408, 0.508) on the Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIE) chromatic diagram, showing a promising potential in high-quality white light output by integration of these QDs with blue chips.

Fingerprints are unique characteristics of an individual, and their imaging and recognition is a top-priority task in forensic science. Fast LFP (latent fingerprint) acquirement can greatly help policemen in screening the potential criminal scenes and capturing fingerprint clues. Of the two major latent fingerprints (LFP), eccrine is expected to be more representative than sebaceous in LFP identification. Here we explored the heavy metal-free Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots (QDs) as a new imaging moiety for eccrine LFPs. To study the effects of different ligands on the LFP image quality, we prepared Mn-doped ZnS QDs with various surface-capping ligands using QDs synthesized in high-temperature organic media as starting material. The orange fluorescence emission from Mn-doped ZnS QDs clearly revealed the optical images of eccrine LFPs. Interestingly, N-acetyl-cysteine-capped Mn-doped ZnS QDs could stain the eccrine LFPs in as fast as 5 s. Meanwhile, the levels 2 and 3 substructures of the fingerprints could also be simultaneously and clearly identified. While in the absence of QDs or without rubbing and stamping the finger onto foil, no fluorescent fingerprint images could be visualized. Besides fresh fingerprint, aged (5, 10, and 50 days), incomplete eccrine LFPs could also be successfully stained with N-acetyl-cysteine-capped Mn-doped ZnS QDs, demonstrating the analytical potential of this method in real world applications. The method was also robust for imaging of eccrine LFPs on a series of nonporous surfaces, such as aluminum foil, compact discs, glass, and black plastic bags.

This study introduces a novel catalyst system comprising Pd nanoparticles loaded onto Mn-doped NiO for the efficient oxidation of methane (CH 4 ) at low temperatures. The loading of Pd nanoparticles onto the Mn-doped support has yielded a catalyst with exceptional activity and stability, as evidenced by the lowest T 50 temperature of 276 °C and a CH 4 conversion reaching 97% at 325 °C. The catalyst demonstrates optimized reaction kinetics with the lowest activation energy of 69.2 kJ mol –1 . The catalyst's superior performance is attributed to the synergistic effects of the Pd/Mn-NiO composite, which include a higher Pd 2+ /Pd 4+ ratio, increased adsorptive oxygen concentration (O ads /O total ), and a reduced Ni 3+ /Ni 2+ ratio. These characteristics collectively enhance the catalytic activity for CH 4 oxidation. The Mars-van Krevelen mechanism underpins the oxidation process, with Pd 2+ identified as the principal active site for CH 4 adsorption and dissociation. Diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy coupled with mass spectrometry elucidates the pathway of surface reactive oxygen species in the formation of key intermediates, such as formates, and underscores the accelerated decomposition of carbonate facilitated by the Pd modification on the Mn-NiO surface. The findings signify a significant advancement in the development of catalysts for environmental and energy-related applications, particularly in the mitigation of CH 4 emissions.

The reliable detection of environmental contaminants can correctly forecast the degree of environmental pollution that has occurred, which contributes to improving the environmental purification rate and maintaining the ecological balance. Herein, a novel hierarchical biomimetic catalysis MnO2@CuAl-CLDHs was designed and synthesized using a facile method, which exhibited significantly enhanced peroxidase-like activity due to the unique composition and hierarchical mesoporous structure. Under optimized operational conditions, a visible colorimetric array based on the superior nanozyme activity of MnO2@CuAl-CLDHs was developed for the quantitative determination of hydroquinone with a wide linear detection range (1–100 μM) and a low detection limit (0.183 μM). Simultaneously, our presented strategy could analyze hydroquinone in real water samples with high accuracy. Therefore, the bimetallic co-catalyzed nanozymes are expected to be the perfect replacement for natural enzymes to develop convenient and efficient sensors.

Fluoride is an essential element for humans, but its excessive intake can cause harm to health. Adsorption is recommended as one of the most widely applied, affordable and convenient defluorination technologies. In the present study, Mn–Zr–Ethanol (Mn–Zr–Et) composite was prepared by sol–gel method with ethanol used as a solvent and then utilized for the fluoride removal. The removal performance of fluoride by the Mn–Zr–Et adsorbent was investigated through batch experiments. The removal mechanism of fluorine was further studied through analyzing the characteristics of the Mn–Zr–Et adsorbent. Results show that the integration of ethanol with Mn–Zr adsorbent could greatly enhance the removal capacity of fluoride when compared to the Mn–Zr adsorbent, where the adsorption capacity of Mn–Zr–Et adsorbent was 32.87 mg g −1 at the initial fluoride concentration of 50 mg L −1 . The Mn–Zr–Et adsorbent had the advantages of fast adsorption rate, wide pH adaptation range and resistance to interference of coexisting anions. To sum up, the Mn–Zr–Et composite is a promising and green adsorbent for the highly efficient removal of fluoride. Graphical Abstract

MnSO 4 -modified biochar (Mn-BC) was synthesized to remove berberine hydrochloride (BH) from wastewater by utilizing tea waste as raw material and MnSO 4 as modifier. Brunel Emmett Taylor (BET) analysis reveals that the specific surface area (SSA) and average pore size (D ave ) of Mn-BC are 1.4 and 7 times higher than those of pristine biochar apart, attributing to the dissociation effect can promote the dispersion of MnSO 4 in the pores of the biochar. Meanwhile, the doping of Mn not only introduces additional oxygen-containing functional groups (OCFGs), but also modulates the π electron density. Furthermore, Response surface method (RSM) analysis reveals that Mn-BC dosage has the most significant effect on BH removal, followed by BH concentration and pH value. Kinetic and isothermal studies reveal that the BH adsorption process of Mn-BC was mainly dominated by chemical and monolayer adsorption. Meanwhile, density functional theory (DFT) calculations confirm the contribution of Mn doping to the conjugation effect in the adsorption system. Originally proposed Mn-BC is one potentially propitious material to eliminate BH from wastewater, meanwhile this also provides a newfangled conception over the sustainable utilization of tea waste resources.

Mn-doped perovskites have been extensively studied in optics, magnetism, and electronics due to their orange emission. However, successful Mn doping required a high Mn/Pb feed ratio. In this paper, Mn-doped CsPbBr3 nanoplatelets (NPLs) with bright orange emission were prepared by a two-step slow thermal injection synthesis. The slow injection of precursors effectively slow-down the crystal growth kinetic process and controls the growth of undoped CsPbBr3 NPLs. This process also significantly improves Mn doping efficiency. Mn doping induced the generation of numerous precursor clusters during the growth of CsPbBr3 NPLs, and the formation of these clusters was crucial for enhancing the doping efficiency. The maximum amount of Mn precursor in CsPb0.83Mn0.17Br3 was 50% of Pb precursors. The photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) of CsPb0.94Mn0.06Br3 NPLs reached up to 80.6%, which was 3.1 times of that of CsPbBr3 NPLs. The PL properties of Mn-doped CsPbBr3 NPLs were significantly enhanced compared with pure CsPbBr3 NPLs. The growth process and luminescence mechanism of Mn-doped CsPbBr3 NPLs were discussed. High PLQYs and efficient Mn doping supplied an ideal approach for the preparation of various CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, and I) NCs for commercial applications.

Aqueous supercapacitors have occupied a significant position among various types of stationary energy storage equipment, while their widespread application is hindered by the relatively low energy density. Herein, N/F co-doped carbon materials activated by manganese clusters (NCM) are constructed by the straightforward experimental routine. Benefiting from the elevated conductivity structure at the microscopic level, the optimized NCM-0.5 electrodes exhibited a remarkable specific capacitance of 653 F g−1at 0.4 A g−1and exceptional cycling stability (97.39% capacity retention even after 40,000 cycles at the scanning rate of 100 mV s−1) in a neutral 5 M LiCl electrolyte. Moreover, we assembled an asymmetric device pairing with a VOxanode (NCM-0.5//VOx), which delivered a durable life span of 95% capacity retention over 30,000 cycles and an impressive energy density of 77.9 Wh kg−1. This study provides inspiration for transition metal element doping engineering in high-energy storage equipment.

Real-time monitoring of structural health status is very important for supersonic aircraft, since the long-term operation in harsh service environments, such as high temperatures, can cause potential damage. Structural health monitoring (SHM) based on lamb wave has been approved to be a critical technique for the reliable operation of supersonic aircraft , but is limited by the operating temperature of conventional piezoelectric sensors , which makes it difficult to meet the high-temperature monitoring requirements. The BiFeO 3 –BaTiO 3 ceramics exhibit excellent piezoelectric properties and high Curie temperature ( T c ), making them promising for high-temperature SHM of supersonic aircraft. Here, we fabricated a piezoelectric sensor using 0.67BiFeO 3 -0.33BaTiO 3 -0.25%molMnO 2 (BF33BTMN-025) ceramic, which exhibits a piezoelectric charge constant ( d 33 ) of 135 pC/N at room temperature and a T c of 448 °C. The BF33BTMN-025 ceramic sensor operates effectively at temperatures up to 200 °C and maintains stable damage monitoring sensitivity as well. Compared with Pb(Zr, Ti)O 3 (PZT), BaTiO 3 (BTO) and other piezoelectric sensors commonly used in SHM field, the BF33BTMN-025 ceramic sensor has a higher operating temperature and a comparable sensitivity. Our work demonstrates that the BF33BTMN-025 ceramic sensor can be employed as piezoelectric sensor for high-temperature SHM, which has a wide application potential in the field of real-time monitoring of supersonic aircraft.

For green hydrogen, the exploitation of advanced electrocatalysts is crucial, and transition metal phosphides have great potential in water splitting due to their abundant reserves and optimized electronic structure. Herein, a synergistic approach involving Mn doping and phosphorization is applied to CoFe-layered double hydroxide nanoflowers to produce a series of bifunctional catalysts Mn-doped CoFeP (Mn-CoFeP). Electrochemical evaluations demonstrate that the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance of Mn(10%)-CoFeP both have notable improvement in 1 M KOH, with the overpotentials of only 160 and 239 mV to achieve current densities of 10 and 100 mA cm −2 , respectively. Comparative electrocatalytic analysis indicates that moderate Mn doping mainly contributes to improve the OER performance, while the phosphorization significantly enhances the HER activity, resulting in effective bifunctional catalysis. For overall water decomposition, a total hydrolysis electrolysis cell equipped with the Mn(10%)-CoFeP bifunctional catalyst requires only 1.64 V to reach a current density of 10 mA cm −2 . Furthermore, it performs stable operation for 10 h at a current density of 10 mA cm −2 with a current maintenance rate of 83.6%. This work offers new insights into preparing effective bifunctional electrocatalysts, advancing clean energy development.
