N-RGO/Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 dual-modified Na 2 Fe 0.6 Mn 0.4 PO 4 F composites were prepared by sol–gel method combined with high-temperature calcination at 625 °C. Electrochemical tests show that the initial discharge specific capacity of N-RGO/Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 -modified Na 2 Fe 0.6 Mn 0.4 PO 4 F composites is 149.27 mAh·g −1 at a current density of 0.05 C, and the discharge specific capacity can be maintained at approximately 101.89 mAh·g −1 after 100 cycles. This accounts for 68.26% of its initial discharge specific capacity. Rate performance tests showed that after cycling the current density back to 0.2 C, it was still able to recover to a discharge specific capacity close to 119 mAh·g −1 . At the same time, the interfacial properties of the N-RGO/Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 dual-modified Na 2 Fe 0.6 Mn 0.4 PO 4 F composites were studied, and it was found that the capacity attenuation was due to irreversible structural changes such as agglomerated block cracking and structural collapse during multiple cycles, as well as the gradual thickening of the SEI film with the increase in cycle times. This study aims to apply N-RGO/Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 dual-modified Na 2 Fe 0.6 Mn 0.4 PO 4 F composites to cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries, providing a theoretical basis for the development of fluorinated poly-anion compounds.

Hydrogen, characterized by its high energy density, efficiency, and environmentally benign output, emerges as a promising alternative to fossil fuels. However, the development of robust hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) catalysts for efficient energy conversion remains a significant challenge. Herein, a NiRu nanoalloy catalyst supported on N-doped hollow carbon nanocages (NiRu/NC) is synthesized via a tandem pyrolysis method. The NiRu/NC catalyst exhibits superior alkaline HOR activity, achieving diffusion-limited current density of 2.56 mA cm–2 and maintaining stability for 80,000 s with a decay rate of only 5.9%, compared to a 28.7% decay rate for benchmark Pt/C after 35,000 s. Additionally, it demonstrates remarkable resistance to CO poisoning, with the current density decreasing by only 50.7% after 1800 s, while the current density of Pt/C dropped to 0 after 800 s. Density functional theory calculations indicate that Ni in the NiRu nanoalloy effectively modulates the electron distribution, thereby ameliorating the electronic structure and enhancing the adsorption of reaction intermediates. These optimizations endow NiRu/NC with both favorable hydrogen-binding energy (HBE) and hydroxyl-binding energy (OHBE), leading to improved HOR efficiency. This work not only offers an innovative approach for synthesizing high-performance alloy-based HOR catalysts but also deepens the fundamental understanding of the bimetallic synergistic mechanisms in HOR catalysis.

Quantum-dot optoelectronics, pivotal for lighting, lasing and photovoltaics, rely on nanocrystalline oxide electron-injection layer. Here, we discover that the prevalent surface magnesium-modified zinc oxide electron-injection layer possesses poor n-type attributes, leading to the suboptimal and encapsulation-resin-sensitive performance of quantum-dot light-emitting diodes. A heavily n-doped nanocrystalline electron-injection layer—exhibiting ohmic transport with 1000 times higher electron conductivity and improved hole blockage—is developed via a simple reductive treatment. The resulting sub-bandgap-driven quantum-dot light-emitting diodes exhibit optimal efficiency and extraordinarily-high brightness, surpassing current benchmarks by at least 2.6-fold, and reaching levels suitable for quantum-dot laser diodes with only modest bias. This breakthrough further empowers white-lighting quantum-dot light-emitting diodes to exceed the 2035 U.S. Department of Energy’s targets for general lighting, which currently accounts for ~15% of global electricity consumption. Our work opens a door for understanding and optimizing carrier transport in nanocrystalline semiconductors shared by various types of solution-processed optoelectronic devices.

The scarcity and poor cycle stability of platinum, the key catalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in fuel cells and metal-air batteries, necessitate the development of alternative catalysts that are low-cost yet highly efficient. In this study, a novel catalyst was synthesized through chemical activation and nitrogen doping of distillers' grains, a biomass material that is rich in heteroatoms. Under alkaline conditions (0.1 M KOH), the ORR peak potential (0.833 V) of the resulting catalyst is comparable to that of commercial Pt/C (0.844 V), with a half-wave potential(E 1/2 ) of 0.802 V, achieving 97.3 % of the Pt/C performance. The onset potential (E onset ) of 0.93 V is also close to that of Pt/C (0.94 V). When the catalyst loading is increased to 0.75 mg/cm 2 , it exhibits a similar current density, E 1/2 of 0.81 V, and E onset of 0.98 V, even surpassing Pt/C. Stability tests using the i-t method show a current decay of 23.96 % after 12 h, outperforming the 79.71 % decay observed for Pt/C. Furthermore, the catalyst demonstrates superior methanol tolerance. In addition to providing a new way to utilize distillers' grains, the new catalyst achieves catalytic properties comparable to commercial Pt/C catalysts while controlling costs, and is expected to be a potential alternative to Pt/C catalysts for applications.

Diamond is known as the ultimate semiconductor owing to its excellent physical properties. However, the high difficulty of n-type doping and the poor electrical performance of n-type diamonds remain major challenges for the application of diamond semiconductor materials. In this paper, a high-pressure thermal diffusion method for the n-type doping of diamond, which utilizes high pressure to reduce the volume difference between phosphorus atoms and carbon atoms, is reported for the first time. This method can achieve efficient doping and ionization of phosphorus atoms at the lattice sites of diamond. The prepared phosphorus-doped diamond exhibited the lowest resistivity (2 Ω cm) and highest electron concentration (2.27 × 10 18 cm −3 ) observed in any known phosphorus-doped diamond single crystal at room temperature (300 K). The high-pressure thermal diffusion method provides an effective approach for diamond n-type doping, which may play an important role in the design and preparation of future diamond-based semiconductor devices.

Antibiotics in pharmaceutical and aquaculture wastewater is a growing threat to the environment of world, due to the induction of drug-resistant bacteria and the harm to the aquatic organisms. Photocatalytic membrane, which has immobilized photocatalyst on membrane is an effective and environmentally friendly technology for antibiotics degradation. In this study, a novel photocatalytic membrane was prepared by loading ZnO/N-g-C 3 N 4 composite on commercial polymer membrane with glutaraldehyde as a crosslinker through pressure driven filtration. The loading of the photocatalyst over the membranes was validated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The photocatalytic properties of ZnO/N-g-C 3 N 4 composite membrane were observed efficient for degradation of tetracycline, ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin in both immersion and filtration model under visible light (λ > 420 nm). Especially, a ZnO/N-g-C 3 N 4 loading amount of 1.12 g/cm 2 and glutaraldehyde concentration of 45% led to the degradation rate of 100% and 80% for tetracycline at 5 mg/L and 10 mg/L, respectively. Low trans-membrane pressure (0.005 MPa) and narrow membrane size (50 kDa) were favorable for antibiotics degradation in filtration model due to long reaction time on membrane surface. Construction and performance of ZnO/N-g-C 3 N 4 composite membrane might provide new strategy for energy saving wastewater treatment.

In this work, we successfully assembled an organic–inorganic core–shell hybrid p-n heterojunction ultraviolet photodetector by the electropolymerization deposition of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxyselenophene) (PEDOS) on the surface of zinc oxide nanoarrays (ZnO NRs). The structures of composite were confirmed by FTIR, UV–Vis, XRD and XPS. Mott–Schottky analysis was used to study the p-n heterojunction structure. The photodetection properties of ZnO NRs/PEDOS heterojunction ultraviolet photodetector were systematically investigated current–voltage (I–V) and current–time (I–t) analysis under different bias voltages. The results showed that PEDOS films uniformly grew on ZnO NRs surface and core–shell structure was formed. The p-n heterojunction structure was formed with strong built-in electric field between ZnO NRs and PEDOS. Under the irradiation of UV light, the device showed a good rectification behavior. The responsivity, detection rate and the external quantum efficiency of the ultraviolet photodetector reached to 247.7 A/W, 3.41 × 10 12 Jones and 84,000% at 2 V bias, respectively. The rise time ( τ r ) and fall time ( τ f ) of ZnO NRs/PEDOS UV photodetector were obviously shortened compared to ZnO UV photodetector. The results show that the introduction of PEDOS effectively improves the performance of the UV photodetector.

It is a big challenge to prepare non-rare metal and high-activity
electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). In this paper, a cobalt/carbon
nanotubes/chitosan composite gel was synthesized and then annealed under nitrogen
atmosphere to yield the cobalt and nitrogen co-modified carbon nanotubes (Co–N-CNTs)
nanocomposite electrocatalysts. In this strategy, the cobalt component considerably
enhanced the ORR activity and improved the degree of graphitic structure to increase the
electronic conductivity. The chitosan served as sustainable source for nitrogen doping.
The Co–N-CNTs exhibit excellent oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) electrocatalytic
activity due to the synergetic effect of Co species and N-doping. The Co–N-CNTs also
deliver excellent methanol tolerance and superior long-term durability to that of
commercial Pt/C, making it a promising ORR electrocatalyst.

Porous Pd-based metallene with highly curved, ultrathin and porous architectural features is a promising candidate for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), and structural design and component modification can effectively enhance its performance. Herein, we present a powerful approach to boost the HER performance of porous PdIr bimetallene through N-doping, which can effectively modulate the electronic structure and induce the strain effect of the designed N-doped porous PdIr bimetallene (N-PdIr bimetallene). The porous N-PdIr bimetallene exhibits superior all-pH HER activity and stability. To generate a cathodic current density of 10 mA cm−2, the required overpotential for the porous N-PdIr bimetallene is 26, 34 and 59 mV in 0.5 M H2SO4, 1 M KOH and 1 M phosphate buffer solution (PBS), respectively, which outperform those of commercial Pt/C. The proposed N-doping approach is a very powerful strategy for boosting metallene electrocatalytic performance, beyond the HER.

A new type of crosslinked poly (n-butyl acrylate) (PBA)/silica core-shell nanocomposite particles was adopted as toughening agent to improve the mechanical properties of phenolic foams. The effects of the nanocomposite particles on the structures and properties of lightweight phenolic foams were investigated. SEM result showed that the addition of a small quantity of the nanocomposite particles can significantly enhance the structural homogeneity of phenolic foams. Thermalgravimetric analysis result suggested that the incorporation of the nanocomposite particles did not affect the thermal stability of the toughened phenolic foams. The flexural strength, compressive strength, and elastic modulus of the phenolic foams increased distinctively after the addition of the nanocomposite particles, the maximum values of which increased by 36.0%, 42.9%, and 32.3%, respectively. In this study, the optimum dosage of the nanocomposite particles is 0.03 phr in the modified phenolic foams. Moreover, the influence on the flammability of phenolic foams by toughening can almost be neglected. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2015 , 132 , 42590.

Owing to great efficient routes for charge carrier separation and transfer, heterostructure photocatalysts play significant roles in many photocatalytic reactions. Based on the bionic structure, an interesting composite photocatalyst of cadmium sulfide dewdrops on ultrathin strontium titanate branches with oxygen vacancies is successfully constructed by a simple chemical bath deposition method. The oxygen vacancies act as electron traps in the dendritic perovskite SrTiO 3 nanostructure. Meanwhile, the CdS can provide abundant active sites for the hydrogen evolution reaction. The results demonstrate that SrTiO 3 /CdS-5% nanocomposite with oxygen vacancies achieves the highest hydrogen production rate of 4537.9 μmol g −1 h −1 under visible light, which is over 50 times more than that of the single SrTiO 3 with oxygen vacancies (79.36 μmol g −1 h −1 ), pure CdS (81.79 μmol g −1 h −1 ), and more than 750 times that of pure SrTiO 3 (6.132 μmol g −1 h −1 ). Density generalized function theory calculations show that the bandgap values of SrTiO 3 /CdS nanocomposite with oxygen vacancies are narrower than that of the original SrTiO 3 and CdS, in which the electrons flow from CdS to SrTiO 3 , and form an internal electric field at the interface, prolonging the carrier lifetime. Importantly, this work provides a reasonable reference for the preparation of efficient structure-based biomimetic composite photocatalysts.

MoS2 and its derivates have been regarded as a promising catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), and their edge sulfur sites are key factors for the HER performance. Here, we develop a facile strategy to grow nonstoichiometric molybdenum sulfide (MoSx) with more active sulfur sites on porous N-doped graphene (MoSx@CN). Experiments demonstrate that the introduction of porous N-doped graphene not only facilitates the fast transfer of charge and the efficient infiltration of the electrolyte but the N dopants could be used as the nucleation sites for MoSx to possess more active bridging S22– sites. Consequently, the obtained MoSx@CN catalyst possesses an outstanding HER activity, which shows an overpotential of 256 mV at 100 mA cm–2 with a Tafel slope of 49 mV dec–1. This study provides a new strategy to optimize transition metal dichalcogenide-based catalysts for energy-related applications.
