Preparation of holey, single-crystal, 2D nanomaterials containing in-plane nanosized pores is very appealing for the environment and energy-related applications. Herein, an in situ topological transformation is showcased of 2D layered double hydroxides (LDHs) allows scalable synthesis of holey, single-crystal 2D transition metal oxides (TMOs) nanomesh of ultrathin thickness. As-synthesized 2D Co/NiO-2 nanomesh delivers superior photocatalytic CO 2 -syngas conversion efficiency (i.e., V CO of 32460 µmol h −1 g −1 CO and V H 2 ${V_{{{\rm{H}}_2}}}$ of 17840 µmol h −1 g −1 H 2 ), with V CO about 7.08 and 2.53 times that of NiO and 2D Co/NiO-1 nanomesh containing larger pore size, respectively. As revealed in high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM), the high performance of Co/NiO-2 nanomesh primarily originates from the edge sites of nanopores, which carry more defect structures (e.g., atomic steps or vacancies) than basal plane for CO 2 adsorption, and from its single-crystal structure adept at charge transport. Theoretical calculation shows the topological transformation from 2D hydroxide to holey 2D oxide can be achieved, probably since the trace Co dopant induces a lattice distortion and thus a sharp decrease of the dehydration energy of hydroxide precursor. The findings can advance the design of intriguing holey 2D materials with well-defined geometric and electronic properties.

In-situ oxygen vacancy-mediated C-N-S-tridoped single crystal black TiO 2 (B) nanorods are smoothly manufactured. The sample preparation is divided into two steps, first of all, a simple hydrothermal process, followed by an in-situ solid-state chemical substitution method with calcination at 500 °C. We have a number of representations of the catalyst such as crystallinity, morphological structure, etc. by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, respectively. This b-C-N-S-TiO 2 (B) has the advantages of Oxygen Vacancy, single crystal structure of nanorods, Ti 3+ self-doping, C-N-S-tridoped, so this sample band gap is narrow. Moreover, through the reduction of phenol and Cr(VI), we know the photocatalytic performance of the b-C-N-S-TiO 2 (B), the reduction efficiency of phenol and Cr(VI) is ∼6.1 times and ∼7 times of no doping samples, respectively, under visible light illumination. The predominant photocatalytic performances because of the synergetic action of Ti 3+ self-doping, C-N-S-tridoped, oxygen vacancy, and the 1D single crystal B phase nanostructure, favoring the separation and transportation of photogenerated charge carriers and the visible light utilization.

Metal selenides possess tremendous potentials due to their high specific capacity for potassium storage, however the sluggish K + diffusion and polyselenide dissolution always result in inferior electrochemical performance. Herein, metal selenide (CoSe 2 ) nanorods with engineered exposed plane incorporated in reduced graphene oxide nanosheet (sc-CoSe 2 @rGO) are fabricated. In the crystalline interior, such single-crystal structure can provide unhindered path for the fast K + transfer. Besides, at the crystalline surface, the mainly exposed (011) facet with Co 2+ rich state can induce the catalytic function with enormous reaction sites, which effectively transform the polyselenide to selenide with an enhanced selenium utilization. As expected, the as-prepared sc-CoSe 2 @rGO delivers satisfied specific capacity, prominent rate property, and superior cyclic stability (a reversible capacity of 157.7 mAh g −1 at high rate of 3.0 A g −1 after 600 cycles). This single-crystalline architecture design for intrinsic K-ion diffusion and surficial optimization is pioneeringly investigated, which provides a new insight into designing and fabricating metal-ion storage materials.

Two uranyl carboxyphosphonates (H2dipy)[(UO2)3(H2O)2(H2DPTP)2]·2H2O (DPTP-U1) and (H2bbi)[(UO2)4(H2O)2(HDPTP)2] (DPTP-U2) [H6DPTP = 2,5-diphosphonoterephthalic acid, dipy = 4,4′-bipyridine, bbi = 1,1′-(1,4-butanediyl)bis(imidazole)] were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The carboxyphosphonate ligand was formed through the in situ oxidation of (2,5-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene)diphosphonic acid mediated by UO22+. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses reveal that DPTP-U1 possesses uranyl carboxyphosphonate layers that are separated by protonated dipy cations. Whereas DPTP-U2 is in a three-dimensional framework structure with channels filled by protonated bbi cations. The computational investigations give an insight into the nature of bonding interactions between uranium(VI) and carboxyphosphonate ligand. The spectroscopic properties were also studied.

In this paper, four NiO nano-arrays with different morphology on nickel foam were synthesized by a hydrothermal approach. It is found that the porous single crystal NiO nanoflake array (PNFA) holds superior electrochemical properties , better than the other three samples. The specific capacitance of the PNFA obtained from the cyclic voltammetry curve was 716 F g −1 and that derived from the galvanostatic charge-discharge curve was 589 F g −1 in three-electrode system. The cycling stability of the PNFA could retain as high as 92.4% after 5000 cycles. When the PNFA was assembled into a symmetric supercapacitor , the PNFA//PNFA device exhibited an energy density of 39.3 W h kg −1 (at 550 W kg −1 ) and could retain 13.2 W h kg −1 (at 11,000 W kg −1 ) in two-electrode system. Furthermore, the SEM, XRD, TEM and XPS results prove that the PNFA is a special porous single crystal structure, which combines the advantages of the cross-linked single crystal structure for facilitating electron transfer and the porous structure providing more interfaces for insertion/exit of electrolyte ions from the active material. It indicates that the PNFA is a potential electrode material for supercapacitors .

Organic metal halides (OMHs) have attracted considerable attention in the field of materials science because of their low cost, easy structure adjustment, and excellent optoelectronic properties. In this study, we synthesized a new organic manganese halide single-crystal, viz. (C 6 H 9 N 2 ) 2 MnI 4 . The single crystal belongs to the triclinic crystal system with a centrosymmetric P-1 space group. The optical bandgap (2.21 eV) of yellow (C 6 H 9 N 2 ) 2 MnI 4 is close to the narrow bandgap and has a wide excitation range, with an optimal excitation wavelength of 468 nm. Among reported tetrahedrally coordinated manganese-based OMHs luminescent materials , yellow-green fluorescence emission is rare. (C 6 H 9 N 2 ) 2 MnI 4 also has a high fluorescence quantum efficiency of 67% and a fluorescence lifetime of 44 μs, and can be used to fabricate a light-emitting diode (LED) device with a luminous efficiency of 9.61 lm/W, thus expanding the applications of organic manganese halide materials.

Design and realization of covalent organic polymers (COPs) with precise structure are challenging yet interesting. Herein, light-yellow single crystals of a novel 1D COP (named as CityU-32 ) containing the dative nitrogen→boron bonds through the assembly between trigonal-planar boronic esters (derived from catechol and benzene-1,3,5-triyltriboronic acid) and 2,6-di(pyridine-4-yl)naphthalene are prepared. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows that CityU-32 features a novel chain-like zigzag structure with a multichain stacking feature, where the adjacent chains are stacked together and interlocked each other with a double hydrogen bonding interaction formed from the boronic ester units. Additionally, CityU-32 has been demonstrated to show some potential applications in the field of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) production.

A coplanar donor-acceptor (D-A) structure in single crystal is directly observed for TICT-Type DPA-PYZ, which corresponds to a coplanar localized excited (LE) state. The conversion between coplanar LE and twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) excited state in the solid state can be achieved through the change of the D-A twist angle between ~0° and ~30° during grinding, heating and solvent fumigation processes. This twist angle change between donor and acceptor was proved by the Raman, FT-IR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallographic analysis as well as theoretical calculation. This research provides the clear evidence for the conversion between coplanar LE and TICT excited states of D-A molecules in solid state and contributes much to the deep understanding of stimulus-response behavior of fluorescent D-A molecular solids from the viewpoint of excited state control.

A series of 3-phenyl-5-isoxazolone and 3-methyl-5-isoxazolone-based compounds with different electron donors were synthesized. Fourteen single crystals in this family were obtained by slow evaporation. Single crystal X-ray studies showed that four new 3-phenyl-5-isoxazolone-based crystals, C20H18N2O2 (PDI), C15H11NO2S (PTI), C23H15NO2 (PFI), and C17H13NO2S (PMI-(I)), belong to the noncentrosymmertric space group. The inclinations to achieve noncentrosymmetric space groups in the 3-phenyl-5-isoxazolone-based crystals have been confirmed by first-principles calculations. Powder second harmonic generation (SHG) tests revealed that the abovementioned four acentric crystals exhibited very large SHG intensities that were about 1 to 3 times that of OH1 (a commonly used nonlinear optical crystal) under 2.09 μm light. Their UV-vis absorption, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and thermal properties were also characterized. Moreover, widely tunable and monochromatic terahertz difference frequency generation in the 3-phenyl-5-isoxazolone-based crystal C17H13NO3 (MLS) was realized for the first time.

Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses showed that C 27 H 27 NO 4 S crystal belongs to the noncentrosymmetric orthorhombic space group P na2 1 , and the other three crystals belong to centrosymmetric monoclinic space group P 2 1 /n. Their first order hyperpolarization and macroscopic nonlinearity were analyzed and physical properties were characterized by UV–vis absorption spectroscopy, and differential scanning calorimetric and thermal gravimetric analysis.

To explore how the different intermolecular non-covalent interactions synergistically affect the molecular packing and properties when they existed at the same molecules. A series of new pyrene derivatives with chalcogen atoms as bridges were designed and synthesized. The single crystal structures of the compounds revealed the significant effect of different intermolecular non-covalent interactions on the molecular packing. The thin film transistor devices were fabricated and exhibit high mobility over 0.04 cm 2 V −1 s −1 . The distinct difference of the OFETs performance suggests that the intermolecular non-covalent interactions have very important effect on gearing the molecular packing and properties.
