Charge/light-related advancements have greatly pushed the development of modern technology, and the relationship between charge and light is worth exploring. While research into the applications of light and charge flow (photoelectric current) is in full swing, studies on the reaction between light and electrostatic charge have made little progress on rare ways to realize photo-stimulated discharge. Herein, we link electrostatic charge and light using a bridge of intense heat, which is produced from the efficient photothermal conversion of Ti3C2Tx MXene. The in situ photothermal conversion and selective thermally stimulated discharge are successfully combined, then novel light-induced electrostatic lithography can be realized on both polymethyl methacrylate glasses and nanofilms. In this process the surface temperature of Ti3C2Tx film can be as high as 300 °C using 808 nm near-infrared irradiation at a power density of 1.7 W cm−2. The combination of light and electrostatic charge is also successfully applied to electrostatic printing and chemical reactions.

Highlights
Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene-based coaxial zinc-ion hybrid fiber supercapacitors (FSCs) were fabricated with braided structure, which can be prepared continuously and present excellent flexibility and ultrastability.
A sports watch driven by the watch belts which weaved uses the obtained zinc-ion hybrid FSC and LED arrays lighted by the FSCs under embedding into textiles, demonstrating the great potential application in smart wearable textiles.
Abstract Zinc-ion hybrid fiber supercapacitors (FSCs) are promising energy storages for wearable electronics owing to their high energy density, good flexibility, and weavability. However, it is still a critical challenge to optimize the structure of the designed FSC to improve energy density and realize the continuous fabrication of super-long FSCs. Herein, we propose a braided coaxial zinc-ion hybrid FSC with several meters of Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene cathode as core electrodes, and shell zinc fiber anode was braided on the surface of the Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene fibers across the solid electrolytes. According to the simulated results using ANSYS Maxwell software, the braided structures revealed a higher capacitance compared to the spring-like structures. The resulting FSCs exhibited a high areal capacitance of 214 mF cm –2 , the energy density of 42.8 μWh cm −2 at 5 mV s −1 , and excellent cycling stability with 83.58% capacity retention after 5000 cycles. The coaxial FSC was tied several kinds of knots, proving a shape-controllable fiber energy storage. Furthermore, the knitted FSC showed superior stability and weavability, which can be woven into watch belts or embedded into textiles to power smart watches and LED arrays for a few days.

The efficient electroreduction reaction of nitrate (NO3−RR) at low concentrations to ammonia is energetically favorable for ammonia production and environmentally essential to treat water contamination. Copper-based conjugated molecule electrocatalysts for the NO3−RR are advantageous in terms of their customizable Cu-coordinative micro-environment and facile preparation; however, they easily agglomerate due to their large π-conjugating system, which severely lowers the active site density and increases the internal resistance. This study demonstrates that Ti3C2Tx MXenes are promising supports to disperse and anchor a molecular catalyst (copper phthalocyanine, CuPc) to construct a CuPc@MXene electrocatalyst in order to significantly promote NO3−RR performance. 10% CuPc@MXene achieved higher ammonia selectivity (94.0%) and higher nitrate conversion (90.5%) compared to those of unsupported CuPc, and retained high ammonia selectivity (∼80%) after seven recycling tests. The combination of online differential electrochemical mass spectroscopy (DEMS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations has showed that CuPc molecules are able to inhibit the hydrogen evolution reaction and effectively convert nitrate into ammonia through the ONH reaction pathway. The results showed that the MXene support is applicable to many metal phthalocyanines (MPcs, M = Fe, Co, Ni), demonstrating its potential in other electrochemical catalysis applications.

Two-dimensional Ti 3 C 2 T x MXenes exposing different active facets are introduced into MgH 2 , and their catalytic effects are systematically investigated in depth through experimental and theoretical approaches. Excluding factors such as interlayer space, surface functional groups and experimental contingency, the exposed facets is considered to be the dominant factor for catalytic activity of Ti 3 C 2 T x towards MgH 2 . More exposed edge facets of Ti 3 C 2 T x displays higher catalytic activity than that with more exposed basal facets, which also leads to different rate-controlling steps of MgH 2 in the de/hydrogenation process. The low work function, strong hydrogen affinity and high content of in situ metallic Ti for the edge facet contribute the high catalytic activity. This work will give insights into the structural design of two-dimensional Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene used for enhancing the catalytic activity in various fields.

Additive manufacturing techniques have revolutionized the field of fabricating micro-supercapacitors (MSCs) with a high degree of pattern and geometry flexibility. However, traditional additive manufacturing processes are based on the functionality of microstructural modulation, which is essential for device performance. Herein, Ti3C2Tx MXene was chosen to report a convenient aerosol jet printing (AJP) process for the in situ curling and alignment of MXene nanosheets. The aerosol droplet provides a microscale regime for curling MXene monolayers while their alignment is performed by the as-generated directional stress derived from the quasi-conical fiber array (CFA)-guided parallel droplet flow. Interdigital microelectrodes were further developed with the curled MXene and a satisfying areal capacitance performance has been demonstrated. Importantly, the AJP technique holds promise for revolutionizing additive manufacturing techniques for fabricating future smart microelectronics and devices not only in the microscale but also in the nanoscale.

MXenes have been proven to be outstanding lossy phase of advanced electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials. However, their poor tolerance to oxygen and water results in fast degradation of the pristine two-dimensional (2D) nanostructure and fading of the functional performance. Herein, in this research, natural antioxidants (e.g., melatonin, tea polyphenols, and phytic acid) were employed to protect the Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene from its degradation in order to achieve a long-term stability of the EMI shielding performance. The results showed that the synthesized composites comprised of antioxidants and Ti 3 C 2 T x exhibited a decelerating degradation rate resulting in an improved EMI shielding effective (SE) stability. The antioxidation mechanism of the applied antioxidants is discussed with respect to the nanostructure evolution of the Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene. This work contributes to the basic foundations for the further development of advanced MXenes for stable applications in the EM field.

The construction of three-dimensional (3D) hierarchically porous nanostructures is an effective microstructural design strategy for the fabrication of lightweight electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption materials . In this work, 3D hierarchically porous Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene@polyaniline (PANI) hybrids are prepared via a self-assembly process. The as-prepared hybrids possess excellent microwave absorption performance with the minimum reflection loss ( RL min ) of the optimal Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene@PANI hybrid reaching − 53.79 dB at 12.67 GHz with a thickness of 1.33 mm and a loading amount of 10 wt% in paraffin. The light weight and high-efficiency microwave absorption properties of the hybrids result from their 3D hierarchically porous structure and well-matched impedance characteristics, which provide multiple reflection channels and loss mechanisms for incident EMWs. This strategy offers a rational, simple and practical design approach for high-performance MXene-based EMW absorbers.

Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene has been explored as an efficient electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding material because of its high electrical conductivity , large specific surface area, rich surface defects , and abundant functional groups. Herein, core-shell Fe 3 O 4 @PANI composites were prepared, followed by the preparation of a flexible and lightweight Ti 3 C 2 T x /Fe 3 O 4 @PANI composite film with sandwich intercalation structure by vacuum-assisted filtration, using Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene as a matrix material. The ultrathin composite film with a Ti 3 C 2 T x nanosheets to Fe 3 O 4 @PANI weight ratio of 12:5 reached a maximum EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) value of 58.8 dB at a thickness of only 12.1 μm. This is much higher than the SE of pure conductive Ti 3 C 2 T x films of the same thickness. After adjusting the film thickness by increasing the concentration of Ti 3 C 2 T x , an SE of 62 dB was achieved at a thickness of 16.7 μm. The ultrathin Ti 3 C 2 T x /Fe 3 O 4 @PANI films exhibit potential for application in packaging, wearable electronic equipment, and military fields. Moreover, they provide insight into the preparation of lightweight and progressive electromagnetic shielding materials.

Flexible dielectrics with exceptional dielectric properties are highly desirable for various electronic applications. In this study, we successfully fabricated CaCu 3 Ti 4 O 12 (CCTO)/Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/millable polyurethane (MPU) ternary composite films via a combination of mixing and hot compression techniques. The incorporation of 2D Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene nanosheets at a mass fraction of 4 % significantly enhanced the dielectric properties of the composite films. Specifically, the dielectric constant at 100 Hz increased to 41.1, representing a 14.48 % improvement over the initial CCTO/MPU composite. Meanwhile, the dielectric loss remained low at 0.050, with only a marginal increase of 2.04 %. Additionally, the breakdown strength of the composite films was notably boosted to 19.15 kV/mm, demonstrating a 15.3 % enhancement. These findings highlight the substantial improvement in the dielectric performance of the CCTO/Ti 3 C 2 T x /MPU ternary composite films, showcasing their potential for high-performance electronic applications.

An appropriate electron transport layer (ETL) or cathode buffer layer (CBL) is critical for high-performance perovskite solar cells (PVSCs). In this work, tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (TBAOH)-functionalized Ti3C2Tx MXene (TBAOH-Ti3C2Tx) is developed to improve the photovoltaic performance of PVSCs. TBAOH-Ti3C2Tx is synthesized by HF etching and then TBAOH intercalation, and TBAOH can effectively attach to the Ti3C2Tx surface during the intercalation process. In hole transport material (HTM)-free carbon-based PVSCs with the structure of ITO/ETL/MAPbI3/carbon, the SnO2 doped by TBAOH-Ti3C2Tx (SnO2:TBAOH-Ti3C2Tx) as ETL shows decreased WF and increased conductivity and improves the growth of the perovskite film with a larger grain and significantly reduced defects, which synergistically facilitate charge transport and extraction and reduce charge recombination. The HTM-free carbon-based PVSC with SnO2:TBAOH-Ti3C2Tx ETL exhibits a significantly higher PCE of 14.93% with enhanced device stability compared to the control device with pristine SnO2 ETL (11.95%) and also outperforms most of the HTM-free carbon-based PVSCs with MAPbI3 perovskite reported so far. In traditional inverted PVSCs with the structure of ITO/PTAA/MAPbI3/PCBM/CBL/Ag, the TBAOH-Ti3C2Tx is utilized as a CBL to significantly enhance device performance with a high PCE of 21.16%, which is obviously superior than that (16.26%) of the control device without CBL. The impressive results indicate that tetrabutylammonium hydroxide-functionalized Ti3C2Tx MXene possesses great application potential in different functional layers for high-performance PVSCs.

Carbon nanofibers can be widely used in the field of electromagnetic wave absorption due to corrosion resistance, low density and good chemical stability. Here, we report a strategy to achieve strong microwave absorption capability by adjusting the crystallinity of carbon nanofibers containing Al 2 O 3 and TiO 2 . TiO 2 with Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene as a precursor decreases the crystallization temperature of Al 2 O 3 from 1400 °C to 800 °C in the carbon nanofibers. The diameter distribution of carbon nanofibers is uniform, though the surface of carbon nanofibers is getting rough with Ti 3 C 2 T x content increasing. The minimum reflection loss of carbon nanofibers is -55.78 dB at a thickness of 4.32 mm; the effective absorption bandwidth reaches 5.41 GHz (12.59-18 GHz) at a thickness of 1.67 mm, almost covering the Ku band. The excellent microwave absorption performance can be attributed to the synergistic effect of the non-crystalline carbon matrix and crystalline Al 2 O 3 /TiO 2 , in which the former improves impedance matching with free space, while the latter enhances the attenuation capability to the electromagnetic wave.

In this work, a multifunctional adsorbent based on zwitterion modified Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene (MPI) was synthesized by surface grafting polymerization, followed by modification with polyethylenimine and sodium chloroacetate. This adsorbent exhibited a high density of functional groups, switchable surface charge characteristics and plenty of active sites of iminoacetic acid chelating groups. Subsequently, methylene blue, congo red, Pb(II), and Cr(VI) were selected as model compounds for cationic/anionic dyes and heavy metal ions to estimate the adsorption performance. The material exhibited exceptional adsorption capacities, and the maximum adsorption capacities were determined as 479.8 mg/g for methylene blue, 481.9 mg/g for congo red, 300.6 mg/g for Pb(II) and 265.9 mg/g for Cr(VI), respectively. Adsorption equilibrium was reached within 10–120 min and the adsorbent showcased excellent removal efficiency. Moreover, the adsorbent demonstrated excellent reusability，with no significant changes after ten consecutive adsorption-desorption cycles. Mechanism studies revealed that electrostatic attraction and chelation played dominant roles in the adsorption process. These results suggest that MPI possesses advantages of simple preparation, multifunctional integration, high adsorption performance, and good stability, making it a promising universal adsorbent for the removal of both dyes and heavy metal ions from wastewater.
