In this paper, p-chlorophenylacetic acid and p-fluorophenylacetic acid were applied to modify the indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes. The surface work functions of unmodified ITO, p-chlorophenylacetic acid modified ITO (Cl-ITO) and p-fluorophenylacetic acid modified ITO (F-ITO) are 5.0 eV, 5.26 eV and 5.14 eV, respectively, and the water contact angles are 7.3°, 59.1° and 46.5°, respectively. The increase of the work function makes the hole injection ability of the devices improved, which is proved by the hole transport devices. The self-assembly (SAM) layers transfer hydrophilic ITO to hydrophobic ITO, which makes ITO more compatible with the hydrophobic organic layers, making the organic film more stable during the operation. After modification, the organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), SAM-modified ITO/NPB/Alq3/LiF/Al, with better performance and stability were fabricated. Especially, the OLED with Cl-ITO (Cl-OLED) has a maximum luminance of 22 428 cd/m 2 (improved by 32.9%) and a half-lifetime of 46 h. Our results suggest that employing organic acids to modify ITO surface can enhance the stability and the luminescent properties of OLED devices.

IV–VI compounds are considered as promising thermoelectric materials, and high thermoelectric performance was achieved in IV–VI solid solutions. In this work, the thermoelectric properties of Pb–Sn–Te–Se-based solid solutions were systematically investigated. Among these solid solutions, it is found that a figure of merit ( ZT ) peak value of 1.0 at 873 K can be obtained in (PbTe) 0.5 (SnTe) 0.5 , on account of the combination of superior electrical properties in SnTe and low thermal conductivity in PbTe. Furthermore, we investigated and summarized the thermoelectric transport properties and proposed the thermoelectric performance maps for the IV–VI solid solutions in Pb–Sn–Te–Se system. This comprehensive investigation on Pb–Sn–Te–Se-based solid solutions can effectively guide and scan thermoelectric performance for a given unknown composition and enhance the thermoelectric properties in IV–VI compounds.

The development of an efficient, stable, and low-cost hole-transporting material (HTM) is of great significance for perovskite solar cells (PSCs) from future commercialization point of view. Herein, we specifically synthesize a dicationic salt of X60 termed X60(TFSI) 2 , and adopt it as an effective and stable “doping” agent to replace the previously used lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) for the low-cost organic HTM X60 in PSCs. The incorporation of this dicationic salt significantly increases the hole conductivity of X60 by two orders of magnitude from 10 −6 to 10 −4 S cm −1 . The dramatic enhancement of the conductivity leads to an impressive power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 19.0% measured at 1 sun illumination (100 mW cm −2 , AM 1.5 G), which is comparable to that of the device doped with LiTFSI (19.3%) under an identical condition. More strikingly, by replacing LiTFSI, the PSC devices incorporating X60(TFSI) 2 also show an excellent long-term durability under ambient atmosphere for 30 days, mainly due to the hydrophobic nature of the X60(TFSI) 2 doped HTM layer, which can effectively prevent the moisture destroying the perovskite layer. The present work paves the way for the development of highly efficient, stable, and low-cost HTM for potential commercialization of PSCs.

Potassium-selenium (K-Se) batteries are a promising electrical energy storage candidate because of the cost-effectiveness and material sustainability, yet they suffer from shuttle effect, volume expansion and low powder density. The development of Se-based cathode is an effective way to overcome the above issues. Here we designed a hollow nano-spherical Co-Fe bi-metallic selenide coated with N-doped carbon (denoted as CFS@N-C) as cathode for K-Se batteries. Bimetallic selenide is benefit to improve the conductivity of composite materials; N-doped carbon layer encapsulation effectively inhibits the dissolution of poly-selenides and relieves the volume expansion. The as-prepared K-Se battery exhibits excellent rate performance (300 mAh·g –1 at 1000 mA·g –1 ) and slow-charge/ultrafast-discharge capability (discharge at 5000 mA·g –1 and charge at 100 mA·g –1 with ultrahigh capacity of 227 mAh·g –1 ) with Coulombic efficiency nearly 100%. In addition, the ex-situ high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) images reveal that the charge–discharge mechanism of CFS@N-C is K + replaces the bimetal and forms K 2 Se. The unique design in this work may provide certain directions on researching for high power density K-storage materials.

Porous silicon (Si) nanostructures have aroused much interest as lithium-ion battery anodes because of the large space to accommodate the volume change in lithiation and delithiation and shorter ion transfer distance. However, fabrication of porous structures tends to be difficult to control and complex, so, the final electrochemical performance can be compromised. Herein, a modest magnesiothermic reduction (MMR) reaction is demonstrated to produce blackberry-like porous Si nanospheres (PSSs) controllably using magnesium silicide (Mg 2 Si) as Mg source and SiO 2 nanospheres as the reactant. This improved MR method provides good control of the kinetics and heat release compared to the traditional MR (TMR) method using Mg powder as the reactant. The PSSs obtained by MMR reaction has higher structural integrity than that fabricated by TMR. After encapsulation with reduced graphene oxide, the Si/C composite exhibits superior cycling stability and rates such as a high reversible capacity of 1034 mAh·g −1 at 0.5C (4200 mAh·g −1 at 1.0C) after 1000 cycles, capacity retention of 79.5%, and high rate capacity of 497 mAh·g −1 at 2.0C. This strategy offers a new route to fabricate high-performance porous Si anodes and can be extended to other materials such as germanium. Graphic abstract

Van der Waals coupling with different stacking configurations can significantly affect the optical and electronic properties of ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) materials, which is an effective way to tune device performance. Herein, we report a salt-assisted chemical vapor deposition method for the synthesis of bilayer V-doped MoS 2 with 2H and 3R phases, which are demonstrated by the second harmonic generation and scanning transmission electron microscopy. Notably, the mobility of the 3R phase V-doped MoS 2 is 6.2% higher than that of the 2H phase. Through first-principles calculations, we further reveal that this particular behavior is attributed to the stronger interlayer coupling of 3R compared to the 2H stacking configuration. This research can be further generalized to other transition metal chalcogenides and will contribute to the development of electronic devices based on 2D materials in the future.

The SrTiO 3 modified rutile TiO 2 composite nanofibers were synthesized by a simple electrospinning technique. The result of XRD, SEM and TEM indicate that the SrTiO 3 /TiO 2 heterojuction has been prepared successfully. Compared with the TiO 2 and SrTiO 3 , the photocatalytic activity of the SrTiO 3 /TiO 2 (rutile) for the degradation of methyl orange exhibits an obvious enhancement under UV illumination. which is almost 2 times than that of bare TiO 2 (rutile) nanofiber. Further, the high crystallinity and photon-generated carrier separation of the SrTiO 3 /TiO 2 heterojuction are considered as the main reason for this enhancement.

Membrane technology for wastewater remediation has aroused wide interest owing to its unique properties and potential applications. However, it remains challenging to explore green, efficient and robust membrane material and technique for complex wastewater treatment. Herein, we proposed using a simple electrospinning and in situ seeding method to fabricate a lignin-based electrospun nanofiber membrane (LENM) decorated with photo-Fenton Ag@MIL-100(Fe) heterojunctions for efficient separation of oil/water emulsions and degradation of organic dye. Thanks to the embedded lignin in LENM, an ultrahigh MIL-100(Fe) loading (53 wt %) with good wettability and high porosity was obtained. As a result, the hybrid Ag@MIL-100(Fe)/LENM exhibited excellent oil/water emulsions separation efficiency (more than 97%) without a compromise of water flux. Moreover, the hybrid membrane showed an excellent dye removal with degradation of 99% methylene blue within 30 min under illumination, which is attributed to a synergy of dye adsorption/enrichment and photo-Fenton catalytic degradation from Ag@MIL-100(Fe). Therefore, the lignin-based photo-Fenton hybrid membrane can lay the foundation for the preparation and application of green, sustainable and versatile membrane materials and technologies for efficient complex wastewater remediation.

The separation of photo-generated carriers in heterojunctions plays a crucial role in regulating the built-in electric field. The design of materials with directional migration characteristics inside the bulk phase and at the interface between the two phases is of great significance for studying photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. The P-CdS/Ag 2 S composite photocatalytic system prepared in this study was doped with P element by heating CdS and NaH 2 PO 2 in a muffle furnace, resulting in the directed migration of photo-generated charges in the prepared sample driven by an internal electric field. By in-situ deposition of Ag 2 S on the surface of P-CdS, a Janus heterojunction was prepared to enhance the transfer of charge carriers at the phase interface. The hydrogen evolution rate of P-CdS/Ag 2 S is 12.44 mmol·h −1 ·g −1 , which is 30 times higher than that of the previously prepared pure CdS sample (0.411 mmol·h −1 ·g −1 ). This significant improvement in photocatalytic performance is attributed to the doping of P element and the in-situ loading of Ag 2 S co-catalyst, which together promote the effective separation and transport of photogenerated charge carriers, thereby enhancing the photocatalytic activity of the material. This work is of great significance for exploring the charge-directed transfer problem of sulfide photocatalysts in the field of photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. Graphical

As a sister compound of MnBi 2 Te 4 , the high-quality MnSb 2 Te 4 single crystals are grown via solid-state reaction where prolonged annealing and narrow temperature window play critical roles on account of its thermal metastability. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) analysis on MnSb 2 Te 4 illustrates a crystal model that is isostructural to MnBi 2 Te 4 , consisting of Te-Sb-Te-Mn-Te-Sb-Te septuple layers (SLs) stacking in an ABC sequence. However, MnSb 2 Te 4 reveals a more pronounced cation intermixing in comparison with MnBi 2 Te 4 , comprising 28.9(7)% Sb antisite defects on the Mn (3a) site and 19.3(6)% Mn antisite defects on the Sb (6c) site, which may give rise to novel magnetic properties in emerging layered MnBi 2 Te 4 -family materials. Unlike the antiferromagnetic (AFM) nature in MnBi 2 Te 4 , MnSb 2 Te 4 exhibits a glassy magnetic ground state below 24 K and can be easily tuned to a ferromagnetic state under a weak applied magnetic field. Its magnetic hysteresis, anisotropy, and relaxation process are investigated in detail via static and dynamic magnetization measurements. Moreover, anomalous Hall effect as a p-type conductor is demonstrated with transport measurements. This work grants MnSb 2 Te 4 a possible access to the future exploration of exotic quantum physics by removing the odd/even layer number restraint in realizing quantum transport phenomena in intrinsic AFM MnBi 2 Te 4 -family materials, as a result of the crossover between its magnetism and potential topology arising from the Sb-Te layer.

The widespread application of bisphenols (BPs) in the industry has made them ubiquitous in the environment, causing potential environmental risks. Its unknown impacts on human being have received more and more attention. In this study, we have assessed the metabolic effects of perinatal exposure to bisphenol A (BPA) and its substitutes (bisphenol S (BPS), bisphenol F (BPF), and bisphenol AF (BPAF)) in female mice adolescent offspring and female mice adulthood offspring. 1 H NMR-based serum metabolomics showed that metabolic profiles were disturbed with BPA and its three substitutes exposure in female mice adolescent offspring and female mice adulthood offspring. In addition, age-related metabolic effects were found based on changes in serum endogenous metabolites and metabolic pathways. Specifically, metabolic pathway analysis showed that major disturbed metabolic pathways in female mice adulthood offspring compare with female mice adolescent offspring also changed significantly. With the increase of age of the female mice offspring, changes in the metabolic pathways became more obvious in the BPA treatment group. Conversely, partially disturbed metabolic pathways were restored in the BPS, BPF, and BPAF treatment groups. In conclusion, perinatal exposure to BPA and its three substitutes significantly interferes with metabolic profiles and metabolic pathways, and this metabolic effects were age-related. These results offer more detailed information about the age-related metabolic effects of perinatal exposure to BPA, BPS, BPF, and BPAF in female mice offspring and provide data for systematic evaluation of the health risk assessment of BPA and its substitutes.
