Transition metal oxides have attracted extensive research interest for supercapacitors due to efficient ion accessibility of nanostructures. Here, hierarchically hollow α-K0.2MnTi0.07O0.8 nanotubes with high K content are prepared via a self-sacrificial template method. The electrochemical performance of α-K0.2MnTi0.07O0.8 nanotubes is significantly improved when beneficial K+ is intercalated into a considerably ordered α-MnO2 phase with exchangeable Mn–K slabs by a K-pre-reserved reaction. Significantly, the α-K0.2MnTi0.07O0.8 nanotubes activated in a K2SO4 electrolyte exhibit highly capable capacitance behavior with high specific capacitance (334.5 F g–1 at 1 A g–1) and superior cycling stability (88% capacitance retention of the initial after 60,000 cycles). The well-designed α-K0.2MnTi0.07O0.8-based supercapacitor device exhibits an energy density of 25.16 Wh kg–1 at 1600 W kg–1. The morphological electrode-structured designer could be a promising attempt for applications in energy-related fields and even beyond power and storage sources.

Ce3+-doped SrS phosphors with a charge-compensating Na+ addition were successfully synthesized via a solid-state reaction method, and the related X-ray diffraction patterns can be indexed to the rock-salt-like crystal structure of the Fm3̅m space group. SrS:(Ce3+)x (0.005 ≤ x ≤ 0.05) and SrS:(Ce3+)0.01,(Na+)y (0.005 ≤ y ≤ 0.030) phosphors were excited by 430 nm UV-Vis light, targeted to the 5d1 → 4f1 transition of Ce3+. The composition-optimized SrS:(Ce3+)0.01, (Na+)0.015 phosphors showed an intense broad emission band at λ = 430–700 nm. The doping of Na+ was probed by solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance. The 430 nm pumped white light-emitting diode structure fabricated with a combination of SrS:(Ce3+)0.01,(Na+)0.015 and Sr2Si5N8:Eu2+ phosphors shows a color-rendering index (Ra) of 89.7. The proposed strategy provides new avenues for the design and realization of novel high color quality solid-state LEDs.

Sodiumion batteries(SIBs) have attracted intensive attention as promising alternative to lithium-ionbatteries(LIBs) for large scale energy storage systems because of low cost of sodium, similar energy storage mechanism and the reasonable performance. However, it is still a great challenge to search and design a robust structure of anode materials with excellent cycling stability and high rate capability for SIBs. Herein, multilayer porous vanadium nitride (VN) microsheets are synthesized through a facile and scalable hydrothermal synthesis-nitrogenization strategy as an effective anode material for SIBs. The multilayer porous VN microsheets not only offer more active sites for fast Na + insertion/extraction process and short diffusion pathway, but also effectively buffer the volume change of anode due to more space in the multilayer porous structure. The large proportions of capacitive behavior imply that the Na + charge storage depends on the intercalation pseudocapacitive mechanism. The multilayer porous VN microsheets electrodes manifest excellent cycling stability and rate capability, delivering a discharge capacity of 156.1 mA·h/g at 200 mA/g after 100 cycles, and a discharge capacity of 111.9 mA·h/g at 1.0 A/g even after 2300 cycles with the Coulombic efficiency of nearly 100%.

For Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NVP) cathode, the activity and utilization rate of Na and V is the key to affecting its electrochemical properties. However, few studies can simultaneously optimize both. Currently, a facile hydrothermal route is proposed to successfully synthesize the honeycomb-like porous NVP@CHSLS cathodes possessing anchoring effects to enhance the immobilization of active Na/V through in situ carbonation with chitosan and sodium lignosulfonate. DFT calculations demonstrate the N/S co-doped carbon skeleton gains more electrons and behaves with superior charge transfer capability. Accordingly, XAFS verifies the existence of hypervalent V 4+ for the charge balance, as well as a newly generated C-N-V bond inside the bulk, which significantly inhibits the dissolution of V in the electrolyte. Moreover, ex-situ and after-cycled XRD verifies beneficial electrochemical intermediums such as Na 2 S manifest extra sodium fixation characteristics, which not only enter into the CEI membrane to reduce the loss of Na + , but also participate in the de-intercalation of Na + . Furthermore, honeycomb-like porous morphology enriches the active sites for Na + migration and improves the wettability of electrolytes, demonstrated by contact Angle and AFM tests. Consequently, the optimized NVP@CHSLS-2 reveals a high postactivated capacity of 104.5 mAh g −1 at 60 C, and it remains at 98.8% after 10 000 cycles at 60 C.

Using poly(styrene-divinylbenzene) microspheres as stationary phase matrix and mercaptosuccinic acid as a modifier, a new weak cation exchange resin was synthesized by thiol click reaction. The conditions for thiol-chlorine click reaction and thiol-alkene click reaction were optimized. The surface morphology and chemical composition of the modified microspheres were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and an elemental analyzer. The stationary phase can achieve the separation of six common cations within 25 min. A homemade weak cation chromatographic column was used to determine the impurities of Na + and K + and the content of tetramethylammonium ions in tetramethylammonium hydroxide samples. The method showed a good linear correlation in the range of 0.1–500.0 mg/L with correlation coefficients of 0.9998–0.9999, and the limits of detection (signal-to-noise ratio ≥ 3) were 0.01–0.20 mg/L. The intra-day relative standard deviations (RSDs) were in the range of 1.1%–4.4%, and the inter-day RSDs were in the range of 0.8%–14.8%. The spiked recoveries were in the range of 91.92%–119.86%. The results showed that the prepared stationary phase exhibited effective separation ability and good reproducibility, which was suitable for the analysis of the impurities of Na + , K + , and the content of tetramethylammonium in the tetramethylammonium reagents.

Luminescent materials with multi-emission features are difficult to be replicated, which are highly desirable for advanced anti-counterfeiting. Here, we report the pioneering synthesis of Mn 2+ /Yb 3+ /Er 3+ tri-doped Cs 2 Ag 0.8 Na 0.2 InCl 6 double perovskites (MYE-DP), which exhibit photoluminescence (PL) covering from visible to near-infrared (NIR). The PL colors under excitations of 254 and 365 nm are notably different due to the changed relative emission intensities of self-trapped excitons (STEs) and Mn 2+ d–d transition. Moreover, under the excitation of a NIR laser, the MYE-DP exhibits upconversion (UC) emissions of Mn 2+ and Er 3+ . After ceasing the excitation, the long-lived trapped electrons can be thermally released to Mn 2+ and Er 3+ ions, resulting in both visible and NIR afterglow. Based on multi-modal emissions of the MYE-DP, we demonstrate a five-level anti-counterfeiting strategy, which significantly increases the anti-counterfeiting security. In addition, this work provides valuable insights into the energy transfer between STEs, Mn 2+ , Ln 3+ , and traps, laying a solid foundation for future development of new lead-free perovskites.

High-salt intake leads to kidney damage and even limits the effectiveness of drugs. However, it is unclear whether excessive intake of salt affects renal tubular energy metabolism and the efficacy of dapagliflozin on renal function in diabetic kidney disease (DKD). In this study, we enrolled 350 DKD patients and examined the correlation between sodium level and renal function, and analyzed influencing factors. The results demonstrated that patients with macroalbuminuria have higher 24 h urinary sodium levels. After establishment of type 2 diabetes mellitus model, the animals received a high-salt diet or normal-salt diet. In the presence of high-salt diet, the renal fibrosis was aggravated with fatty acid metabolism dysregulation. Furthermore, Na+/K+-ATPase expression was up-regulated in the renal tubules of diabetic mice, while the fatty acid metabolism was improved by inhibiting Na+/K+-ATPase of renal tubular epithelial cells. Of note, the administration with dapagliflozin improved renal fibrosis and enhanced fatty acid metabolism. But high salt weakened the above-mentioned renal protective effects of dapagliflozin in DKD. Similar results were recapitulated in vitro after incubating proximal tubular epithelial cells in high-glucose and high-salt medium. In conclusion, our results indicate that high salt can lead to fatty acid metabolism disorders by increasing Na+/K+-ATPase expression in the renal tubules of DKD. High salt intake diminishes the reno-protective effect of dapagliflozin in DKD.

Extracting lithium resources from seawater and brine can promote the development of the new energy materials industry. The electrochemical method is green and efficient. Iron phosphate (FePO 4 ) crystal, with its 1D ion channel, holds significant potential as a primary lithium extraction electrode material. Li + encounters a substantial concentration disadvantage in brines, and the co-intercalation of Na + diminishes Li + selectivity. To address this issue, this work enhances the energy barrier for Na + insertion through prelithiation strategies applied to the 1D channels of FePO 4 crystal, thereby improving Li + selectivity, and further investigating the prelithiation effect with particle size and morphology control. The results indicate that the Li (4C-40%) FePO 4 // Activated carbon(AC) system enhances selectivity of lithium. The Li (4C-40%) FePO 4 with size diameter of 2500 nm demonstrates an energy consumption of 0.79 Wh mol −1 and a purity of 97.94% for lithium extraction at a unit lithium extraction of 5.93 mmol g −1 in simulated brine. Li (4C-40%) FePO 4 -nanoplates demonstrate the most optimal lithium extraction performance among the three morphologies due to their lamellar structure's short ion diffusion path in the [010] channel, favoring Li + diffusion. The diffusion energy barriers of Li + and Na + are calculated using Density Functional Theory (DFT) before and after prelithiation, showing good agreement with experimental results.

Dielectric ceramics possess a unique competitive advantage in electronic systems due to their high-power density and excellent reliability. Na 1/2 Bi 1/2 TiO 3 -based ceramics, one type of extensively studied energy storage dielectric, however, often experience A-site element volatilization and Ti 4+ reduction during high-temperature sintering. These issues may result in increased energy loss, reduced polarization and low dielectric breakdown electric field, ultimately making it challenging to achieve both high energy storage density and efficiency. To address these issues, we introduce a synergistic optimization strategy that combine polarization engineering and grain alignment engineering. First principles calculations and experimental analyses show that the doping of Mn 2+ can suppress the reduction of Ti 4+ in Na 1/2 Bi 1/2 TiO 3 -based ceramics and enhance ion off-centering displacements, thereby reducing energy loss and improving polarization. In addition, we prepared multilayer ceramic capacitors with grains oriented along the <111> direction using the template grain growth method. This approach effectively reduces electric-field-induced strain by 37% and markedly enhances breakdown electric field by 42% when compared with nontextured counterpart. As a result of this comprehensive strategy, <111 >-textured Na 1/2 Bi 1/2 TiO 3 -based multilayer ceramic capacitors achieve an ultra-high energy density of 15.7 J·cm −3 and an excellent efficiency beyond 95% at 850 kV·cm −1 , exhibiting a superior overall energy storage performance.

Sodium superoxide is considered the preferred discharge product for sodium-air batteries (SABs) due to the reversible electrochemistry of the O 2 /O 2 − redox pair and the consequent low charge overpotential. However, air cathodes of SABs based on mono-metal systems have not yet achieved optimal adsorption of the discharge products, leading to suboptimal performance of SABs. In this study, we present FeCo bimetallic alloy particles anchored on carbon nanotubes (FeCo/C) as a demonstration of a bimetal-based air cathode for SABs. Na-air batteries with FeCo/C cathode can achieve a low overpotential gap of 500 mV, a high discharge capacity of 3392.20 mAh g −1 , and excellent cyclic stability over 200 cycles (800 h). Ex-situ spectroscopy confirms the successful formation of sodium superoxide as the main discharge product, establishing a clear correlation between excellent performance and discharge product composition and verifying the effectiveness of the bimetallic alloy cathode. Theoretical calculations further reveal that the bimetallic-based air cathode exhibits improved adsorption of sodium superoxide, significantly enhancing the performance of SABs. This work pioneers the use of bimetal alloy strategies to optimize discharge products in SABs, paving the way for their practical application.

Na metal anode (NMA) is one of the most promising candidate materials for next-generation low-cost sodium metal batteries. However, the preferred deposition of Na metal at the anode/separator interface increases the risk of dendrite penetration of the separator, consequently, reduces safety and life of batteries with NMA. In this study, a Na deposition-regulating strategy is shown by designing a gradiently graphitized 3D carbon fiber (CF) framework as host (grad-CF), whereby Na is guided to deposit preferentially at the bottom of the anode, safely away from the separator. The obtained Na anode significantly reduces the probability of dendrite-induced short circuits. The grad-CF host enables NMA stable cycling at a high current density of 6 mA cm −2 . When the Na@grad-CF is applied as anode in full cells pared with Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NVP) cathode, it exhibits a reversible capacity of 73 mA h g −1 after 500 cycles with a low decay rate of 0.13%.

The sodium (Na) anode suffers severe interfacial resistance and dendrite issues in a classic NASICON-type Na3Zr2Si2PO12 (NZSP) electrolyte, resulting in poor electrochemical performance for solid-state Na metal batteries. There has been little success in the reduction of interfacial resistance in recent years. The exact mechanism of this resistance has not been fully understood because of little information about the interface. In this work, we effectively address the large interfacial resistance issue and the metal dendrite problem between the Na anode and NZSP by introducing a TiO2 film as an active interphase. We employ quasiinsitu X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) to uncover the interphase formation mechanism at the Na/TiO2–NZSP electrolyte interface. Our quasiinsitu XPS results confirm the formation of a sodiated-TiO2 interphase upon stepwise Na evaporation on the surface of the NZSP electrolyte. Further investigation by molten Na contact angle measurements, impedance spectroscopy and DFT calculations demonstrates that the sodiated-TiO2 interphase promotes Na ion transport between the Na anode and NZSP electrolyte. Moreover, the electrostatic potential formed at the NZSP/NaxTiO2 interface can effectively reduce electronic conductivity at the interface and hence prevent the growth of sodium dendrites. A representative paradigm for interphase design is provided to address the interface contact for developing stable solid-state batteries with high performance.
