Layered P-type structures are integral to most competitive cathodes for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, the performance of P2-type cobalt-based layered materials is unsatisfactory owing to a low initial discharge capacity caused by Na deficiency. Here, Mn-doped Na x CoO 2 with a P3 structure is synthesized by using a modified solvent-thermal method with calcination . A structural analysis shows that partial Mn doping can effectively control P3 phase formation and increase d -layer spacing, thereby improving the diffusion of Na + . In addition, enhanced electrochemical performance is observed in optimized P3-type Na 0.26 Co 0.48 Mn 0.52 O 2 (NCMO-1), which exhibits a reversible specific capacity of 64 mAh g −1 at 3 A g −1 and a good capacity retention of 58% after 500 cycles. Furthermore, the Na-ion full cell constructed with an NCMO-1 cathode and a hard carbon anode yields a competitive energy density of 175.9 Wh kg −1 at 0.4 A g −1 with excellent cycle stability. Thus, this work provides a new viewpoint on the development of P3 structural materials with higher electrochemical performance for SIBs.

The Si-based flexible electrodes attracted increasing research interests owing to the growing demand for high-performance flexible energy storage devices. Herein, a facile and smart self-assembly strategy is adopted to address huge volume expansion and particle aggregation issues of Si-based anodes, and a high-performance freestanding film anode (NC@Si/CNTs/N-rGO) is synthesized. The 3D-crosslinked porous graphene-CNTs networks offer abundant electric conductive pathways, high active sites, large internal space to accommodate the expansion of Si NPs, and facilitate Li + diffusion and insertion/extraction kinetics. The synergistic effect between the well-dispersed Si/NC nanoparticles and 3D porous networks significantly enhances electrochemical performance of Si NPs. The as-prepared NC@Si/CNTs/N-rGO electrode exhibits a high reversible specific capacity of 1089 mAh·g −1 at a charge–discharge current density of 1 A·g −1 after 500 cycles. Even at 2 A·g −1 , the electrode still exhibits an excellent reversible specific capacity of 606 mAh·g −1 after 300 cycles. These indicate that the NC@Si/CNTs/N-rGO is a promising candidate for high-performance flexible anode material in lithium-ion batteries.

Inorganic metal chalcohalides are significant semiconductive materials for photovoltaics, photodetetion and infrared optics. Thus it is considerably rewarding to develop a new synthetic strategy to provide more degrees of freedom for atomic coordination to tune the optical and electronic properties of metal chalcohalides. In this work, the mixed-anion strategy is performed to synthesize two new metal chalcohalides Cs2InPS4X2 (X = Cl, Br) with mixed-anion structure by the reaction of InPS4 and CsX. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows that they are isostructural and crystallize in the centrosymmetric space group P21/n, consisting of zero-dimensional structure [In2P2S8X4]4− (X = Cl, Br) built from tetrahedral [PS4]3− and octahedral [InS4X2]7− (X = Cl, Br) through edge-sharing, with Cs cations filling in intervening voids. The UV-vis-NIR diffuse reflectance spectroscopy measurement reveals that Cs2InPS4Cl2 and Cs2InPS4Br2 exhibit large optical bandgaps of 3.21 eV and 3.12 eV, respectively. The electronic structure calculations show that the bandgap mainly originates from the [InS4X2]7− (X = Cl, Br) mixed-anion groups. First-principles calculations indicate that the birefringence of Cs2InPS4Cl2 and Cs2InPS4Br2 is ∼0.08 and ∼0.05 at 2090 nm, respectively. Furthermore, thermal analysis reveals that the Cs2InPS4X2 (X = Cl, Br) are thermostable up to 400 °C. This discovery enriches the structural diversity of inorganic chalcohalides and provides an insight for the exploration of new semiconductive materials.

Two energetic salts of cyclo-N 5 − , O-methylisoure pentazolate ( 1 ) and guanidinoacetic acid pentazolate ( 2 ), were synthesized by metathesis reaction. All the energetic cyclo-N 5 − salts were characterized by single-crystal XRD, IR spectroscopy, 1 H and 13 C multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, thermal analysis (DSC) and elemental analysis. They exhibit good thermal stability with decomposition temperatures of more than 100 °C and they are in excellent agreement with those reported non-metallic salts. Salt 1 also exhibits strong π-π interactions. The standard enthalpies of formation and detonation performances of these salts were calculated using Gaussian 09 and EXPLO5 v6.01 programs. The detonation velocities of compound 1 and 2 are both about 7400 m s −1 and these two salts exhibit low mechanical sensitivity (IS>23 J, FS>220 N). Therefore, in this work, the synthesis of the new pentazolate salts enriches the cyclo-pentazolate salts system, which is conducive to the exploration of more heat-resistant and higher detonation velocities pentazolate salts.

To develop low-cost, high-capacity and long-life anode materials for lithium-ion batteries, glucose-C and F-doped C coated SiO composites with adjustable pore structure (p-SiO@gl-C@F-doped C) are synthesized by facile and scalable methods. The combination of the heterogeneous dual-carbon shells and porous structure significantly promotes the reaction kinetics of the electrode, effectively suppresses and buffers the volume expansion of SiO, and largely enhances the stability of solid electrolyte interface of the electrode. In a half cell, the optimized p-SiO@gl-C@F-doped C (7:3) composite shows a stable discharge capacity of 785 mAh g −1 at a current density of 200 mA g −1 . The discharge capacity is maintained at 772 mAh g −1 after 200 cycles. At a current density of 400 mA g −1 , the electrode shows a discharge capacity of 633 mAh g −1 after 500 cycles, with a capacity degradation of ∼0.0096% per cycle from the 2nd cycle to the 500th cycle. The full cell which is composed of the commercial LiFePO 4 as a cathode and the optimized composite as an anode, exhibits high capacity and good cycling stability.

All-solid-state lithium-ion batteries (ASSLIBs) owing to their advantage of enhanced safety are considered to be a promising candidate for next-generation energy storage devices. However, the poor cycling performance and low areal capacities of ASSLIBs with S, Li2S or traditional oxide cathodes hinder the development of high-energy-density ASSLIBs. Herein, a Li6PS5Cl solid-state electrolyte has been systematically investigated for use as a cathode active material in ASSLIBs for the first time. ASSLIBs employing Li6PS5Cl as both the active material and electrolyte with a Li–In alloy anode are fabricated. A Li6PS5Cl-based cell with an active material loading of 3.1 mg cm−2 exhibits a high discharge capacity of around 535 mA h g−1 after 650 cycles at 56 mA g−1 (∼0.1C) at room temperature, which is the highest value among ASSLIBs using sulfide SSEs as active materials and is even comparable with those of cells with S, Li2S or transition metal sulfides as the active material. This superior long-term cycling performance is attributed to the highly reversible electrochemical activity of Li6PS5Cl revealed by ex situ XRD and XPS analyses.

Two-dimensional (2D) vertical heterojunctions possess peculiar electronic and optoelectronic properties according to their complementary composition, ultrathin thickness, and unique geometry. However, it is still a challenge to synthesize 2D vertical heterojunctions based on non-layered materials due to strong covalent bonds and abundant surface dangling bonds. Here we developed a partial cation exchange method for the synthesis of 2D vertical Cu2S/CdS heterojunctions. Large-size and single-crystalline CdS nanosheets prepared by a van der Waals epitaxy method served as host lattices for cation exchange reactions. The evolution of the nanosheets in terms of their morphology, composition and crystal structure was elaborately characterized. The as-prepared 2D vertical heterojunctions have two-layer ultra-thin structures and form large-area junctions at their interfaces. Under light irradiation, the photogenerated electron–hole pairs can be quickly separated under the electric field in the junction region, minimizing the possibility of charge recombination. As a result, the device based on 2D vertical Cu2S/CdS heterojunctions exhibits a higher photoelectric conversion capability compared with the device based on single-component 2D CdS or Cu2S Schottky junctions. Our work opens up opportunities to explore 2D vertical heterojunctions based on non-layered materials for high-performance optoelectronic devices.

In order to improve the removal ability of chitosan (CS) to heavy metal ions , in this study, rich amino-functionalized CS electrospun membranes have been prepared. During the efficient synthesis, poly (glycidyl methacrylate) (PGMA) and polyethylenimine (PEI) were sequentially grafted on the surface of CS electrospun membrane. The success of introduction of amino-group on the CS were confirmed by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), attenuated total reflection-fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The ability of remove heavy metal ions (Cr(VI), Cu(II) and Co(II)) of the as-prepared membrane (CS-PGMA-PEI) was investigated. The adsorption equilibrium of the heavy metal ion solutions was rapidly established in 60 min. Adsorption kinetics analysis reveals that the adsorption process of CS-PGMA-PEI electrospun membrane was dominated by a Pseudo-second-order model. Its adsorption isotherm can be described by the Langmuir model. The maximum adsorption capacities calculated by Langmuir model were 138.96, 69.27 and 68.31 mg g −1 for Cr(VI), Cu(II) and Co(II), respectively. The adsorption ability of CS-PGMA-PEI electrospun membrane toward metal ions was found in an order of Cr(VI) > Cu(II) > Co(II). CS-PGMA-PEI membrane also exhibited a good reproducibility and stability. Our study may provide a way to synthesize membranes for water purification .

Fluorescent sensor has demonstrated to be a facile and effective method to detect heavy metal ions owing to its unique characteristics such as simplicity, ease of operation and cost-effectiveness. In this work, a novel fluorescent probe with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) feature that contains an amide ligand base on the tetraphenylethylene (TPE) dye was designed and successfully synthesized. The utilization of the AIE-active fluorescent probe (named as FDPA) for detection of Cu 2+ in aqueous solution has also been examined. We demonstrated that the resultant AIE-active molecule displays amphiphilic property and can self-assemble in aqueous solution with remarkable enhancement of fluorescent intensity owing to its AIE feature. The detection limit of probe for Cu 2+ determination is 6.11 × 10 −9 M and shows excellent selectivity in the presence of competitive ions. This work provides a useful route to overcome the fluorescence quenching of conventional fluorescent probes in aqueous solution and an elegant way to prepare fluorescent probes with better fluorescence properties.

Commercial lithium-ion batteries have safety risks due to the use of electrolyte-containing flammable organic solvents. The development of all solid-state lithium ion batteries with solid electrolyte is a feasible technical way to improve the safety of batteries. In this work, PVDF-based composite solid-state electrolytes (CSEs) were prepared by coupling Li 6.4 La 3 Zr 1.4 Ta 0.6 O 12 (LLZTO) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). The electrochemical performance and interfacial compatibility between composite electrolyte and electrode were improved by the combination of appropriate amount of Li-ion-conducting particles and the insulating polymer. The corresponding solid-state battery of LiFePO 4 |PVDF-LLZTO-CSE| Li is fabricated and delivers initial discharge capacity of 162.4 mAh g -1 , and coulomb efficiency is approximately 98.5%. And the solid-state battery exhibits satisfactory rate capability and cycling stability at room temperature. This study suggests that a combination of the lithium garnet particles and insulating polymer is one of the promising methods to solve the problem of liquid electrolyte.

Three novel organic vermiculites (VER) modified by amphoteric surfactants (BS, SB and PBS) with different negatively charged groups (carboxylate, sulfonate and phosphate) were demonstrated and used for removal of bisphenol A (BPA) and tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA). The difference in the structure and surface properties of modified vermiculites were investigated using a series of characterization methods. BS and SB surfactant mainly adsorbed on the surface and hard to intercalate into the interlayer of VER, while both adsorption and intercalation occurred in PBS modification. This difference resulted in different packing density of surfactant and hydrophobicity according to the results of contact angle, and affect the adsorption capacities ultimately. The adsorption of two pollutants onto these modified vermiculites were very fast and well fitted with pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm . PBS-VER exhibited the highest adsorption capacity (92.67 and 88.87 mg g −1 for BPA and TBBPA, respectively) than other two modified vermiculites in this order PBS-VER > BS-VER > SB-VER. The ionic strength (Na + , Ca 2+ ) and coexisting compounds (Pb 2+ , humic acid) have different effects on the adsorption. PBS-VER had a good reusability and could remove ionic (methylene blue and orange G) and molecular (BPA) pollutants simultaneously and effectively due to the function of amphoteric hydrophilic groups and alkyl chains. The results might provide novel information for developing low-cost and effective adsorbents for removal of neutral and charged organic pollutants .

We provide a method for preparation of binder-free cathode for rechargeable aluminum-ion batteries (AIBs). Ultrasonicated natural graphite (u-NG) flakes in N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) is drop-casted to a carbon fiber cloth (CFC) to obtain binder-free u-GF@CFC cathode for AIBs. We also provide an in-situ Raman spectral technology and the corresponding in-situ Raman cell to determine the mechanism of intercalation/deintercalation reactions of the chloroaluminate ions at cathode of AIBs. The in-situ Raman spectra are recorded using a Raman spectrometer combined with a potentiostat/galvanostat model electrochemical workstation. • A simple preparation method of a binder-free u-GF@CFC cathode is suggested. • The u-GF@CFC cathode is obtained by drop-casting ultrasonicated graphite flakes on the surface and internal gaps of the carbon fiber cloth. • The method includes the in-situ Raman spectral technology and the corresponding in-situ Raman cell.
