Developing highly efficient photocatalysts for CO2reduction remains a great challenge. The large band gap and poor charge carrier dynamics are the major factors limiting the performance of Bi4Ti3O12(BTO). Herein, a series of La-doped Bi4Ti3O12(BLaxTO) nanosheets were synthesized and further modified by NaBH4hydrogenation to create surface defect-rich H-BLaXTO nanosheets. Characterizations and theoretical calculations confirmed that the synergistic effect of La doping and hydrogenation significantly enhanced visible-light absorption, promoted charge separation, and improved the electron reduction capacity. When applied to photocatalytic CO2reduction, the H-BLa0.2TO catalyst achieved a superior CH3OH production rate of 7.90 μmol·g−1·h−1, which is 5.6 times higher than that of pristine Bi4Ti3O12. Moreover, the H-BLa0.2TO catalyst maintained excellent stability over four consecutive cycles. This study offers an integrated strategy for constructing high-performance bismuth-based photocatalysts through elemental doping and defect engineering.

Rare-earth element-based materials have attracted extensive interest due to their effectiveness in phosphate removal. However, there are ongoing challenges related to enhancing the phosphate adsorption capacity and regenerating the lanthanum-based adsorbents. This study focused on the preparation of La-Zr bimetallic modified diatomite composites with different molar ratios using a simple coprecipitation method. These composites were employed as efficient adsorbents for the removal of low-concentration phosphate. After conducting a preliminary assessment of the phosphate adsorption capacities of the synthesized La-Zr bimetallic modified diatomite composites, the composite with the La/Zr molar ratio of 1:1 (designated as La 1 Zr 1 -DE) was selected for further characterization and evaluation. The maximum phosphate adsorption capacity of La 1 Zr 1 -DE, determined using the Langmuir isotherm model, was found to be 116.2 mg P/g. The adsorption process of phosphate by La 1 Zr 1 -DE can be primarily attributed to mechanisms such as ligand exchange, inner-sphere complexation, and surface precipitation. Furthermore, La 1 Zr 1 -DE exhibited excellent selectivity for phosphate and demonstrated good regeneration capabilities. This study offers a comprehensive exploration of the adsorption mechanisms, providing a theoretical basis for the development of more effective and sustainable phosphate adsorbents.

Flexible La-doped Sm2Zr2O7/polyurethane (PU) coated leather composites were synthesized using a one-step hydrothermal method, with highly efficient photocatalytic degradation properties by coating the La-doped Sm2Zr2O7/PU emulsion onto the leather and drying it. The phase composition and optical properties of the as-prepared photocatalytic material were systematically characterized. The result revealed that La was doped in Sm2Zr2O7successfully, and the prepared samples still possessed pyrochlore structure. The absorption edge of the prepared samples exhibited a red-shift with the increase in La doping, indicating that La doping could broaden the absorbance range of the La-doped Sm2Zr2O7materials. The catalytic performance of La-doped Sm2Zr2O7/PU composite emulsion coating on the photocatalytic performance of leather was studied with Congo red solution as the target pollutant. The results showed that the best photocatalytic property was found in the 5% La-doped Sm2Zr2O7nanomaterial at a concentration of 3 g/L. The resulting 5% La-doped Sm2Zr2O7nanomaterial exhibited a high specific surface area of 73.5 m2/g. After 40 min of irradiation by a 450 W xenon lamp, the degradation rate of Congo red reached 93%. Moreover, after surface coating, the La-doped Sm2Zr2O7/PU coated leather composites showed obviously improved mechanical properties, as the tensile strength of La-doped Sm2Zr2O7/PU coated leather composites increased from 6.3 to 8.4 MPa. The as-prepared La-doped Sm2Zr2O7/PU coated leather composites with enhanced mechanical properties and highly efficient photocatalytic performance hold promising applications in the treatment of indoor volatile organic compounds.

Joint doping with trivalent and monovalent ions is a widely adopted strategy to enhance the ionic conductivities of NASICON-type solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) with the general formula Na1+xZr2SixP3–xO12, but the underlying microscopic mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we synthesized a series of Na3+xLaxZr2–xSi2PO12 (NLZSPx, 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.4) ceramics and characterized their electrical properties and structures by using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and advanced solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR). Among all of the samples, the composition with x = 0.2 exhibited the highest ionic conductivity, achieving 1.05 × 10–3 S/cm at 25 °C, which is 3.65 times higher than that of the undoped sample. XRD and SSNMR results prove that La3+ ions did not integrate into the main phase lattice to replace Zr4+ ions. Instead, they formed a heterogeneous phase predominantly composed of Na3La(PO4)2 at the grain boundaries. The content of Na3La(PO4)2 and the composition of the NASICON main phase were accurately determined by SSNMR. This impurity resulted in changes in the Si/P and Na/Zr ratios within the main phase. Some comparison experiments are carried out and prove that these changes were not the principal drivers of the increased conductivity. SEM results further indicated that doping with an appropriate amount of La3+ ions significantly increased the sample densification, thus promoting Na+ ions transport between grain boundaries─this being the key factor driving the observed improvement in ionic conductivity.

Owing to the intrinsic dielectric-magnetic coupling loss mechanism, perovskite-type lanthanide-transition metal oxide (LaTMO 3 ) is considered as a promising candidate for electromagnetic wave absorbing material, but unmodified LaTMO 3 suffers from limited polarization processes and weak super-exchange magnetic response. Herein, we manipulate the TM-O bond properties by regulating the configuration entropy of transition metal sites to address such issues within single-phase LaTMO 3 . Elaborate structural characterization and P-V-L bond theory demonstrate quantitatively the optimization of electromagnetic wave absorption performance mainly stems from the synergistic improvement in TM-O bond distortion degree and covalency, as well as the formation of diverse super-exchange pathways. Consequently, the high entropy La(Cr 0.2 Mn 0.2 Fe 0.2 Co 0.2 Ni 0.2 )O 3 exhibits a minimum reflection loss of −50.68 dB, an effective absorption bandwidth covering entire Ku band of 7.6 GHz. The radar cross section of the structure with La(Cr 0.2 Mn 0.2 Fa 0.2 Co 0.2 Ni 0.2 )O 3 coating are less than −10 dBm 2 within the incident angles -60-60°. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of design and preparation of efficient broadband electromagnetic wave absorbing materials.

N and F co-doped La-TiO2 (La-TONF) samples were prepared through the solvothermal method by using HMT and NaF as precursors. The obtained samples were characterized by UV-Vis DRS, XRD, XPS and PL measurements for light-harvesting properties, crystal phase and optical characteristics,
respectively. Interestingly, the TONF sample had a different fluorescence emission intensity than the TON or TOF samples, thus suggesting a clear synergistic effect of N and F co-doping. The optimal doping amount of La was 2 wt.%, and the absorption edge was red-shifted from 453 nm to 464
nm for La-TiO2 and La-TONF. The photocatalytic activity was evaluated by degradation of MO and oxidation of TMB under visible light irradiation. La-TONF exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity and a degradation rate of 92.4%, 4.4 times that of undoped TiO2 (20.8%).
The photocatalytic degradation activity remained above 85.8%, even after five runs. In addition, the MO photodegradation catalyzed by La-TONF followed first order kinetics. According these results, a possible synergistic effect mechanism for the enhanced photocatalytic performance is proposed.

This study systematically investigates the structural and luminescent characteristics of LaSc 3 (BO 3 ) 4 :x %Cr 3+ and La (1-y) Gd y Sc 3 (BO 3 ) 4 :1.0 %Cr 3+ phosphors. X-ray diffraction confirms the formation of a pure hunter-type structure for all samples, with Cr 3+ occupying Sc 3+ sites and Gd 3+ substituting La 3+ , inducing lattice contraction. Luminescent analysis reveals that LaSc 3 (BO 3 ) 4 :Cr 3+ exhibits an emission at 980 nm under 430 nm excitation, attributed to the 4 T 2 → 4 A 2 transition of Cr 3+ in a weak crystal field. The substitution of Gd 3+ enhances photoluminescence intensity by 2.15-fold, and blue-shifts emission to 938 nm because of increased crystal field splitting and structural rigidity. The broadened full width at half maximum is also formed due to the enhanced degree of disorder in GdSc 3 (BO 3 ) 4 . Thermal stability studies show that GdSc 3 (BO 3 ) 4 :Cr 3+ retains 49 % intensity at 540 K, outperforming LaSc 3 (BO 3 ) 4 :Cr 3+ (41 %), supported by higher activation energy (ΔE = 0.338 eV vs. 0.296 eV). The improved thermal resistance is linked to lattice rigidity and reduced electron-phonon coupling. NIR-pc-LEDs fabricated with GdSc 3 (BO 3 ) 4 :Cr 3+ demonstrate superior radiant flux (68.7 mW at 200 mA) compared to La-based devices. These results highlight the critical role of host lattice engineering in optimizing Cr 3+ luminescence for high-power NIR applications.

High-entropy pyrochlore oxide (Y,Dy,Ce,Nd,La) 2 Sn 2 O 7 has been synthesized by the co-precipitation method. EDS and XPS analysis demonstrated the high-entropy structure in M 2 Sn 2 O 7 (M = Y, Dy, Ce, Nd, La) ultrafine powders, which is developed as the active material in lithium anode. The effects of different binders on the cycling performance and rate capability were discussed. Benefiting from the synergistic effects of high-entropy system and the strong intermolecular force provided by the sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) system, the optimized M 2 Sn 2 O 7 /CMC (M = Y, Dy, Ce, Nd, La) delivers a high initial discharge capacity of about 766 mAh g −1 and exhibits excellent cycle stability. A reversible capacity of 396 mAh g −1 and superior delivering retention of ~ 100% can be obtained at 100 mA g −1 after 100 cycles. Meanwhile, the capacity retention rate of 54.5% can still be reached after the cycling at various current densities from 0.05 to 1 A g −1 , demonstrating potential application prospect of the M 2 Sn 2 O 7 /CMC.

Amorphous Li–La–Zr–O (LLZO) solid-state electrolyte thin films are promising alternatives to the well-established lithium phosphorus oxynitride (LiPON) electrolyte for all-solid-state lithium batteries due to their potentially higher Li-ion conductivity and stability. Herein, the enhancement methodology in the ionic conductivity of amorphous LLZO-based thin films is investigated. By doping with Ta, the conductivity of the amorphous LLZO film at 30 °C (3.9 × 10–7 S cm–1) can be enhanced by up to an order of magnitude (2.6 × 10–6 S cm–1), ascribed to tuning Li conduction in local near-order LLZO nanodomains. On that basis, an isomeric Li–La–Zr–Ta–O (LLZTO) amorphous–crystalline composite thin film is prepared via incorporating cubic LLZTO particles into the amorphous LLZTO matrix. The composite film with 10 wt % cubic LLZTO filler can further achieve an ionic conductivity of 0.8 × 10–5 S cm–1 at 30 °C, which is comparable to the best values obtained for the state-of-art LLZO-based thin films. Li transport through the well-connected cubic LLZTO filler network and along the interfaces between the crystallites and the amorphous matrix in the LLZTO composite thin film may offer fast and long-range Li-conduction pathways, which supplement the ionic conduction in the amorphous matrix with short-range-ordered and long-range-disordered structures.

This work proposed an innovative technology to fabricate Mo–La–O nanoparticles strengthened Mo alloys with ultrafine nano grains via freeze-drying and low temperature sintering . These novel nano Mo–La–O particles including La 7 Mo 7 O 30 , La 5 Mo 3 O 16 , La 6 Mo 2 O 15 , La 5 Mo 4 O 12 , La 4 Mo 2 O 11 and La 2 (MoO 6 ) remain coherent or semi-coherent interfaces with Mo matrix to strengthen their phase boundaries. Moreover, nano Mo–La–O particles enriched in excess oxygen absorb nearby impurity oxygen and then lead to the purification of Mo matrix. Furthermore, the low temperature sintered Mo–La x Mo y O z alloys possess high relative density (98.1%), which is due to the high sintering activities of ultrafine powders (56 nm). Comparing with available literature which involves oxide-dispersion-strengthened-molybdenum alloys (ODS-Mo), the freeze-dried Mo–La x Mo y O z alloys in our work possess the finest grain size (440 nm), the finest oxide particle size (mainly <5 nm), the highest hardness (495 HV 0.2 ) and high strength (1201 MPa) at 30% deformation.

A rapid sample preparation procedure is described to determine trace element compositions of peridotites using LA-ICP-MS. Peridotite powders were fused with albite in a molybdenum–graphite assembly to obtain homogeneous glasses. Best conditions for the fusion procedure (heating at 1500–1550 °C for 10–15 min with a sample-to-flux ratio of 1:2) were constrained with melting experiments on two USGS reference materials, PCC-1 and DTS-2B. Mass fractions of first series transition elements, Ba and Pb, in quenched glasses of PCC-1 and DTS-2B are consistent with published data within 10% RSD. Three spinel peridotite xenoliths from eastern China were analysed following both our method and conventional solution ICP-MS. Compared with solution ICP-MS, the relative deviations of our method for most elements were within 10%, while for the REE, Ta, Pb, Th and U, the relative deviations were within 20%. In particular, volatile elements (e.g., Pb and Zn) are retained in the glass. Compared with conventional wet chemistry digestion, our method is faster. Additional advantages are complete sample fusion, especially useful for samples with acid-resistant minerals (spinel and rutile), and long-term conservation of glasses allowing unlimited repeated measurements with microbeam techniques. The same approach can be used for analyses of other mantle rocks, such as eclogites and pyroxenites.

en This link goes to a English section zh This link goes to a Chinese section The development of high-performance photodetectors critically relies on innovative interfacial band engineering, a strategy that enables the synergistic enhancement of photocurrent and drastic suppression of dark current. Herein, a self-powered ultraviolet (UV) photodetector is demonstrated based on a NiO/La-doped SrSnO 3 (LSSO)/Nb-doped SrTiO 3 (NSTO) dual heterojunction. Benefiting from the reinforced interfacial potential barriers and multiple built-in electric fields at both the NiO/LSSO and LSSO/NSTO interfaces, the device achieves highly efficient charge separation while effectively inhibiting carrier leakage in the dark. Consequently, the photodetector exhibits an ultra-low dark current of 0.18 pA at zero bias. Under 254 nm UV illumination, the device delivers a high responsivity of 41.81 mA W −1 , a specific detectivity of 7.87 × 10 12 Jones, a photocurrent-to-dark-current ratio as high as 4.4 × 10 4 , and rapid response times (rise/fall) of 2.89/13.93 ms. These results underscore the advantages of the dual-heterojunction architecture in boosting photoelectric conversion efficiency and suppressing noise, thereby providing a robust strategy for high-performance, oxide-based self-powered UV photodetection. 摘要 en This link goes to a English section zh This link goes to a Chinese section 高性能光电探测器的研发关键在于创新性的界面能带工程,该策略能够协同增强光生电流并显著抑制暗电流。本文报道了一种基于NiO/La:SrSnO 3 (LSSO)/Nb:SrTiO 3 (NSTO)双异质结结构的自供电紫外光电探测器。得益于NiO/LSSO和LSSO/NSTO界面处增强的界面势垒和多重内置电场,该器件在有效抑制暗态下载流子泄漏的同时,实现了高效的电荷分离。结果表明,该探测器在零偏压下表现出0.18 pA的极低暗电流。在254 nm紫外光照射下,器件的响应度达到41.81 mA W −1 、探测率为7.87 × 10 12 Jones,光暗电流比高达4.4 × 10 4 ,并具备2.89/13.93 ms (上升/下降时间)的快速响应特性。上述结果充分表明,双异质结结构在提升光电转换效率和抑制噪声方面具有显著优势,为构建高性能氧化物自供能紫外光电探测器提供了一种有效的设计策略。
