It remains a critical challenge to develop narrow-band emitters for wide color gamut displays. Herein, it is designed by the selective site occupancy engineering and an unprecedented narrow-band green-emitting phosphor is prepared through chemical substitution. By introducing Ga 3+ ions into Sr 2 LiAlO 4 :Eu 2+ phosphor, the distribution of Eu 2+ ions in Sr1 and Sr2 sites is effectively controlled, and only one type of luminescent centers Eu 2+ (Sr1) is remained in Sr 2 LiAl 0.6 Ga 0.4 O 4 :Eu 2+ due to the compression effect of Sr2O 8 polyhedra. Sr 2 LiAl 0.6 Ga 0.4 O 4 :Eu 2+ phosphor presents an extremely narrow-band green emission centered at 512 nm with a full-width at half-maximum of only 40 nm. The wide color gamut (107% National Television System Committee) of the as-fabricated white liquid crystal displays and the vivid figures captured from the projector demonstrate the potential application of narrow-band emitter for wide-color gamut displays. This work provides the design principles of realizing narrow-band emission by selective site occupancy engineering and can set the stage for the exploring of Eu 2+ -activated phosphor for high definition displays.

Two-dimensional (2D) nanostructures are mainly confined to being obtained from intrinsically layered crystals via an exfoliation approach or epitaxial growth method, thereby greatly limiting the choice of 2D crystals available for high-performance optoelectronic devices. Here, we introduce an efficient PDMS printing strategy to simultaneously realize the controllable preparation and subsequent transfer of a large-area non-layered 2D Ga2O3 amorphous layer on the basis of ultrathin oxide skin of liquid Ga. More importantly, a template-confined reaction of the 2D Ga2O3 amorphous layer is further proposed to achieve other 2D Ga-group crystals including 2D GaN, GaS, and GaP thin layers. The corresponding crystallization and transformation process under the 2D geometrical space is investigated and demonstrated to be polycrystalline nucleation and growth, which still follows the traditional thermodynamic nucleation rule of critical radius. Furthermore, 2D Ga-group semiconductors could easily stack with themselves or other layered 2D crystals such as MoS2 to construct diverse van der Waals heterostructures for the fabrication of high-performance and multifunctional electronics. We believe that the unique and simple synthetic strategy proposed in this work will promote the preparation and transfer of diverse non-layered 2D crystals for the discovery of new phenomena and functional nanodevices.

M 3+ controls phase evolution: Al/Ga form Cu-Co alloy; In 3+ leads to CuIn, CoIn 2 , In 2 O 3 separation. • Surface hydroxyls and bridged CO provide dual CHₓ sources for C 2+ OH formation. • Medium-strength basic sites and Cu + fraction, not total basicity, govern C 2+ OH selectivity. • Smaller M 3+ radius (Al 3+ ) strengthens metal-support interaction, enhancing dispersion and performance. The modulation of trivalent cations in layered double hydroxide (LDH)-derived catalysts provides an effective strategy for tuning the multifunctional active sites for higher alcohol synthesis. In this study, a series of layered CuCoM catalysts (M = Al, Ga, In) was synthesized via alkaline co-precipitation and evaluated for higher alcohols synthesis via CO hydrogenation. The results demonstrate that the introduction of M 3 + is essential for constructing the LDH precursor structure and significantly influences the phase evolution, morphology, textural properties, reducibility, surface basicity, and chemical states of the catalysts. Among the catalysts tested, CuCoAl exhibited the best overall performance, achieving a CO conversion of 35.60%, an ethanol selectivity of 39.97%, and a C 2 + alcohols selectivity of 73.47%. Structural characterization revealed that CuCoAl had the highest specific surface area and the most uniform dispersion of Cu and Co species, which favored the exposure of accessible active sites. CO 2 -TPD, XPS, and in situ DRIFTS results further indicated that CuCoAl contained abundant surface hydroxyl groups and a higher fraction of Cu + , which promoted the formation of formate species, facilitated non-dissociative CO insertion, and enhanced CH x generation through both formate hydrogenation and bridged CO dissociation on Co sites. The superior catalytic performance of CuCoAl is thus attributed to the synergistic effect of highly dispersed Cu-Co active sites, abundant surface hydroxyl groups, and optimized Cu + /Co interfacial functionalities. This study provides mechanistic insights into trivalent-cation regulation in LDH-derived CuCo catalysts and offers a rational strategy for the design of efficient catalysts for higher alcohol synthesis from syngas.

Eco-friendly Ag–In–Ga–S (AIGS) quantum dots (QDs) are potential alternatives in white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) due to their high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and tunable emission. The conventional stacked-film structure using multicomponent QDs suppresses reabsorption losses among different color QDs, but inevitably introduces interfacial optical losses and manufacturing complexity and cost. In this study, a single color-conversion blended film with uniform and excellent luminescence is fabricated using high-PLQY red-emitting (85%) and green-emitting (91%) AIGS QDs simultaneously incorporated into a PMMA matrix. This deliberately utilizes reabsorption governed by the relative ratio between red and green QDs rather than solely suppressing it, thereby eliminating interfacial losses and enhancing luminance, which results in higher photoluminescence emission while maintaining a nearly identical low blue-light transmittance. Furthermore, the blended-film WLED fabricated by integrating the blended film with a blue LED chip exhibited a higher luminance (532.3 cd/m2), representing a greater than 25-fold increase over the conventional stacked-film device (21.0 cd/m2). The blended-film WLED achieved CIE chromaticity coordinates of (0.31, 0.32) and a color rendering index (CRI) of 87.3. The study provides a better understanding of reabsorption in single-layer multicolor QD films and promotes the development of simple and efficient I–III–VI QD backlight films for white-light display applications.

This study develops a conductive material that remains stable in air at extremely high temperatures. Traditional conductive materials, such as carbon- or metal-based systems, often degrade or oxidize near 1000 °C, which limits their use in harsh environments. To solve this problem, we designed a composite material made of heat-resistant aluminum oxide fibers and a gallium–indium liquid metal. A needle-based method was used to distribute the liquid metal evenly through the fiber network, creating continuous conductive pathways. The material was then tested under high temperatures in air to evaluate its electrical stability and mechanical response. The results show that it maintained stable electrical performance at 1000 °C in air for three hours, with very small resistance changes. After repeated heating and cooling between room temperature and 1000 °C, the resistance remained highly stable. High-temperature treatment also reduced the material’s sensitivity to bending and pressure. Structural analysis indicates that a stable oxide layer formed during heating, while the fiber framework preserved the overall structure. These findings provide a simple and effective strategy for designing flexible conductive materials for high-temperature and harsh-environment applications.

The commercialization of Li metal anodes in all-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) is hindered by uncontrollable dendritic growth and nonuniform deposition during cycling. Here, we report a facile metal displacement strategy to construct a Li–Ga alloy anodic interlayer to suppress Li dendrite growth and stabilize the anode–solid-state electrolyte interface. The significantly enhanced performance originates from the dramatically improved Li diffusion kinetics, with the Li–Ga alloy modified Li (Li-Ga@Li) anode exhibiting a Li atomic diffusion coefficient twice as high as that of pristine Li metal. Consequently, the Li-Ga@Li|LPSCl|Li-Ga@Li symmetric cells deliver stable lithium stripping/plating behavior over 800 h with minimal polarization and a significantly increased critical current density. When paired with a high-loading LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 (NCM811) cathode active material, Li-Ga@Li|LPSCl|NCM811 ASSLBs demonstrate enhanced rate capability and prolonged cycling stability. This work provides a practical interfacial engineering strategy through diffusivity improvement toward high-performance ASSLBs.

Biodegradable zinc alloys have emerged as promising materials for cardiovascular implant applications. However, the practical application of biodegradable zinc alloys is restricted by several key challenges, including uncontrolled corrosion, inadequate endothelialization and reperfusion ischemia‑induced neointimal hyperplasia. Herein, UV‑assisted Ga‑doped ZnO (UV/GZO) and In‑doped ZnO (UV/IZO) layers are deposited on pure Zn substrates. These coatings can regulate Zn 2 + release and promote the growth of vascular endothelial cells. Under 325 nm excitation, electron‑hole pairs are generated in GZO and IZO via band‑to‑band transitions. The resulting photo‑induced energy catalyzes H 2 O and O 2 to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS), which act as chemical linking groups that accelerate polydopamine (PDA) deposition. The PDA coating enhances corrosion resistance and serves as an adhesion‑promoting interlayer. An outer PLGA layer forms robust bonds with the UV/GZO(IZO)/PDA‑modified Zn substrate, establishing a “sandwich protection system”. This system significantly improves adhesion force, corrosion resistance and mechanical stability. Moreover, the Zn/UVGZO/PDA/PLGA and Zn/UVIZO/PDA/PLGA coatings exhibit good antibacterial activity and controlled degradation, which prevents direct contact between endothelial cells and the Zn surface and decreases adverse cellular responses.

The n-type Mg 3+δ (Sb,Bi) 2 ‐based system has recently emerged as a breakthrough class of thermoelectric (TE) materials, drawing considerable interest for its eco‐friendly composition and potential to replace conventional commercial counterparts. However, the precise regulation of grain boundaries in Mg-based materials—akin to wielding an accurate scalpel—so as to extremely optimize thermoelectric performance and device properties remains ill-defined. In this study, the incorporation of Ga into the Mg 3 (Sb,Bi) 2 matrix via high‐energy ball milling (HBM) and spark plasma sintering (SPS) yielded an ultralow lattice thermal conductivity of 0.41 W m -1 K -1 at 300 K, a superior figure of merit ( ZT ) exceeding 1.84 at 673 K, and a high average ZT ( ZT avg ) of 1.55 across 300—773 K. The lattice thermal conductivity of Ga‐modified Mg 3+δ (Sb,Bi) 2 is markedly reduced over the entire temperature range, primarily due to the enhanced Kapitza thermal resistivity (ρ Kapitza ) resulting from the introduction of a liquid‐like phase at grain boundaries (GBs), which strengthens phonon scattering. while, Ohmic-like metal–semiconductor junctions form at the interfaces between the Ga/Bi secondary phases and the Mg 3+δ (Sb,Bi) 2 matrix lead to superior power factor. The high performance of Ga‐Mg 3+δ (Sb,Bi) 2 enabled a two‐pair module based on Mg 3.2 Ga 0.04 Sb 1.5 Bi 0.49 Te 0.01 / MgAgSb to achieve a conversion efficiency ( η ) of ∼6.0% at ΔT = 300 K. As a result, this work demonstrates significant theoretical and practical value in areas such as thermal management and thermoelectric material design.

Self-supported nanoporous metal foils with precisely engineered architectures are promising for catalysis, sensing, and environmental remediation, yet their scalable fabrication remains challenging. Here, we present a sequence-controlled liquid gallium (Ga)-assisted alloying/dealloying strategy, integrated with thermal evaporation, to construct Ag-modified nanoporous copper (Cu) foils. By varying the Ag deposition sequence, two distinct architectures were obtained: one features Ag 3 Ga intermetallic decorations, while the other forms a continuous Ag network within the nanoporous Cu. Subsequent electrooxidation generates Cu x O nanoneedles as catalytically active sites. The architecture with dispersed Ag 3 Ga yields exceptional non-enzymatic glucose sensing with high sensitivity, low detection limit, and long-term stability. In contrast, the continuous Ag network promotes outstanding photo‑Fenton degradation of organic dyes within minutes and excellent reusability. This work demonstrates a versatile approach to spatially control noble metal distribution in nanoporous Cu foils, enabling multifunctional catalytic systems for biosensing and environmental purification.

The methanol-to-aromatics (MTA) reaction was investigated on Ga-modified ZSM-5 zeolites (Ga/ZSM-5). As revealed by 71Ga and 1H solid-state NMR and FT-IR of pyridine adsorption measurements, cationic Ga species are formed as Lewis acid sites by substitution of Brønsted acid sites on H-ZSM-5. Further experimental studies show that C5- and C6-cycloalkenes are generated during the MTA reaction, which lead to the formation of cyclic carbocations as precursors to aromatics. Isotope exchange experiments demonstrate that the reactivity of the cyclic carbocations on Ga/ZSM-5 is much higher than that on H-ZSM-5 and they play an intermediate role in the formation of aromatics. In addition to the traditional bimolecular hydrogen transfer (HT) reaction, the dehydrogenation of alkenes with the release of H2 (DeaH2 process) was identified to significantly contribute to the formation of aromatics. The transformation of cycloalkenes to aromatics is favored by promotion of the DeaH2 process and competes with the HT route on Ga/ZSM-5, while these cycloalkenes tend to crack back to alkenes, and the dominating HT route results in lower aromatic selectivity on H-ZSM-5. A DeaH2-aromatization route mediated by the cooperation of cationic Ga species and Brønsted acid sites was proposed for the enhanced formation of aromatics on Ga/ZSM-5 zeolite.

It is well known that the design of precursor structure is an effective method to optimize the photocatalytic activity of g-C 3 N 4 , and it will be interesting to investigate the relationship between the precursor structure and the structure of the target catalyst. In this paper, by adjusting the addition amount of glutaraldehyde (GA), three kinds of glutaraldehyde/dicyandiamide (GA/DCDA) precursors with equilibrium/imbalance hydrogen bond interaction can be obtained, and the carbonized glutaraldehyde (C-GA)/g-C 3 N 4 composite catalysts with different carbon content can be obtained after calcination. The obtained C-GA/g-C 3 N 4 composite catalysts have different photocatalytic activity for methylene blue degradation. Compared with the original g-C 3 N 4 , the photocatalytic activity of C-GA/g-C 3 N 4 -2 composite is increased by 2.69 times. Through the analysis of thermal decomposition kinetics and structural characterization, we can see that the equilibrium interaction in the structure of GA/DCDA-2 precursor can promote the conversion of dicyandiamide to melamine, and glutaraldehyde carbonization will form more C-GA, and form a composite catalyst with closer interaction with g-C 3 N 4 . C-GA with close interaction and higher content can effectively promote the separation of photogenerated carriers and visible light absorption, thus improving its photocatalytic activity.

Red-emitting color-convertors have attracted considerable attention for promising applications in solid-state lighting (SSL) to improve color rendition. However, the current nitride and fluoride phosphor powders have encountered several challenges, such as high cost, narrow emission bands, and insufficient stability during operation, which limit the development of high-power full-spectrum SSL. In this study, thermally robust Gd 3 (Al,Ga) 5 O 12 :Mn (GAGG:Mn) solid-solution ceramics (SSCs) with dual wavelength red-emission bands were prepared via an oxygen solid-state sintering reaction. The doped Mn ions occupied octahedral Al 3+ and Ga 3+ sites to generate Mn 4+ luminescent centers with pronounced deep-red emissions peaking at 698 nm ( 2 E → 4 A 2 ), and Mn 2+ luminescent centers with broad red emissions at 628 nm ( 4 T 1 → 6 A 1 ). Because the cationic radius matching effect induced the regulation of valence state of Mn, the photoluminescence of the GAGG:Mn SSCs can be tailored by the substitution of Al 3+ with Ga 3+ . Moreover, the Mn 3+ also existed in the GAGG lattice host, and their concentration decreased with increasing Ga 3+ contents owing to the mismatch of ionic radius between Mn 3+ and Ga 3+ ions. With the optimization of Al/Ga ratio and concentration of Mn ions, a broad emission band ranging from 550 to 800 nm (bandwidth = 250 nm) was achieved from Gd 3 Al 3 Ga 2 O 12 :0.3%Mn SSCs upon 465-nm excitation. Moreover, the GAGG:Mn SSC has over 17-fold enhanced thermal conductivity compared with the corresponding phosphor powder. This paper opens a door of regulating the valence state of luminescence centers with cation substitution and the application of oxide red-emitting color-convertors.
