Axial coordination of heteroatoms to the metal sites in M-N-C catalysts exerts a direct modulation of the electronic distribution by forming a bond with the metal center, thereby optimizing its intrinsic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). However, the steric hindrance introduced by axially coordinated heteroatoms limits reactant accessibility, potentially suppressing the overall catalytic activity. This study provides an HF wet etching strategy to synthesize a hollow porous ZIF-derived nitrogen-doped carbon-supported F-axially coordinated single-atom iron catalyst (F-Fe 1 @HNC), which simultaneously achieves F-axial coordination and high reactant accessibility. Consequently, the F-Fe 1 @HNC catalyst demonstrates outstanding ORR performance in both alkaline (0.919 V) and acidic (0.797 V) electrolytes. When employed as a cathode material in a zinc-air battery, F-Fe 1 @HNC achieves an open-circuit potential of 1.477 V and a power density of 256 mW cm −2 , significantly outperforming commercial Pt/C catalysts. Density functional theory confirmed that F-coordination altered the electronic distribution at Fe-N-C sites, optimizing the adsorption of oxygen-containing intermediates. This work highlights the importance of electron-withdrawing groups in creating the electron asymmetry at Fe-N-C sites, providing profound insights into designing highly efficient ORR catalysts. The F-axis coordinated Fe-N-C catalyst breaks the limitation imposed by spatial steric hindrance and significantly improves the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) performance.

Addressing water pollution and energy shortage simultaneously remains a key environmental challenge, yet conventional water treatment rarely removes pollutants while recovering energy. Phthalate esters (PAEs), a class of toxic and persistent emerging contaminants, urgently require advanced oxidation technologies. Herein, an efficient photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) system was developed based on S-scheme F-BiOF/TiO 2 nanocones (NCs) photoanode for deep degradation of the representative PAEs, dibutyl phthalate (DBP), with simultaneous hydrogen (H 2 ) evolution. BiOF was first loaded onto TiO₂ NCs to form a compact BiOF/TiO₂ interface, and subsequent electrochemical F activation regulated the interfacial electronic structure and strengthened the internal electric field, thereby promoting S-scheme heterojunction directional charge separation. This design retained the strong oxidation ability of BiOF valence-band holes and the reduction ability of TiO₂ conduction-band electrons. Density functional theory (DFT) and spectroscopic analyses confirmed that F activation significantly strengthened the internal electric field and facilitated directional charge separation, thereby boosting PEC performance. Under simulated sunlight irradiation at 0.8 V, the system achieved 96.5% DBP removal and 967.7 μmol/cm 2 H 2 production within 90 min. Notably, the H 2 yield dropped to 559.3 μmol/cm 2 without DBP, demonstrating that anodic pollutant oxidation can promote cathodic H 2 evolution. Fukui-function revealed that the degradation of DBP initiated with preferential attack on its ester group, while HeLa cell assays confirmed decreasing intermediate toxicity. The system also showed robust performance in real wastewater, highlighting its potential for integrated recalcitrant pollutant removal and clean energy recovery.

Herein, nitrogen, phosphorus, and fluorine codoped MXene (N,P,F-MXene) was synthesized via thermal treatment using 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([BMIM][PF6]) as the doping precursor. Comprehensive characterization confirmed the effective incorporation of nitrogen, phosphorus, and fluorine into the MXene lattice. Tribological testing revealed that N,P,F-MXene demonstrated excellent performance as an additive in lubrication, showing significantly reduced friction and wear. Specifically, it achieved an average COF of 0.109 and reduced wear volume by 62.5% versus the base oil. Furthermore, the N,P,F-MXene-based lubricant exhibited good adaptability under extreme operating conditions, sustaining stable tribological behavior over a broad load, frequency, and temperature range. Notably, its load capacity reached 500 N. Mechanistic analysis indicates that its superior performance originates from the synergistic effects of the physical filling and adsorption of N,P,F-MXene, coupled with the formation of a tribo-chemical film with low shear strength enriched with nitrogen/phosphorus/fluorine compounds and metal oxides in the friction process. This study provides an effective strategy for heteroatom doping of MXene and offers a promising pathway toward high-performance oil-based lubricant additives.

Exploring highly active, cost-effective, and long-life non-precious metal-based catalysts for the oxygen reduction/evolution reaction (ORR/OER) is extremely important for renewable energy conversion devices. Herein, a facile approach is proposed to fabricate a FeNi nanoparticles decorated 3D N, S, F tri-doped porous carbon nanoflower/nanotubes electrocatalyst (FeNi@NSFC) by a self-assembly pyrolysis process. The ammonium sulfate not only acts as a N and S source but also facilitates the self-assembly of 2D ZnFeNi-ZIF nanosheets into 3D nanoflowers. Meanwhile, the potassium fluoride serves as a F source and regulates the crystal growth as well as pore structure. The 3D nanoflower/nanotube structure benefits the exposure of reactive species and mass/charge transport. The optimized FeNi@NSFC catalyst achieved outstanding bifunctional catalytic performance with an overpotential gap (0.655 V), which was lower than the Pt/C + RuO 2 catalyst (0.670 V). Theoretical findings also revealed that the introduction of N, S and F atoms could tailor the electronic structure of FeNi nanoparticles, thereby enhancing the catalytic activity for ORR. Therefore, the FeNi@NSFC-assembled Zinc-air batteries (ZABs) delivered a peak power density (156.2 mW cm −2 ), and long-term cycle durability (550 h), surpassing Pt/C + RuO 2 -assembled ZABs. This work demonstrates a promising avenue for developing MOF-derived catalysts with well-defined morphology and multi-atom doping.

Phen strongly coordinates dissociative Fe ions to form active Fe-N X sites. • The strong coupling of Fe-F strengthens the poisoning resistance of the catalyst. • N,F co-doped network enhances ORR by lowering reaction energy barrier at Fe-N X sites. • Porous chain-bead framework prevents agglomeration, providing abundant sites and fast charge transfer. • AEMFCs with FeN X @Fe-F-CNF cathodes achieve a peak power density of 0.7 W cm −2 . Transition-metal-nitrogen-carbon (M-N-C) catalysts have garnered significant recognition as highly active non-precious metal catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in anion exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs), attributable to their low-cost, high atom-utilization and remarkable ORR performance. However, the primary drawback of conventional M-N-C catalysts lies in the suboptimal electronic structure of their metal centers (M-N 4 ), which results in excessively strong adsorption energy toward oxygen intermediates, thereby limiting their intrinsic activity and stability. Herein, the FeF 2 /Fe 3 N nanocrystalline decorated N, F co-doped chain-bead Fe-N-C fiber network (FeN X @Fe-F-CNF) has been fabricated by electrospinning strategy through utilizing 1,10-Phenanthroline monohydrochloride monohydrate (Phen) and NH 4 F as nitrogen/fluoride sources respectively. The six-membered heterocyclic in Phen allows for strong coordination with dissociative Fe ions, thus, promoting the formation of Fe-N X sites. Furthermore, co-doped N, F is able to tune the electronic structure of Fe active sites, whereas flexible chain-bead nanofibers guarantee considerable structural adaptation, thereby contributing to the enhancement of their catalytic activity and stability. The obtained FeN X @Fe-F-CNF exhibits enhanced ORR catalytic activity (with an E 1/2 of 0.863 V) and superior durability (with a current retention of 90.7 % after maintaining the ORR typical potential range for 100,000 seconds and a E 1/2 negative shift of 7 mV after 5000 continuous potential cycles). Furthermore, the assembled AEMFCs based on FeN X @Fe-F-CNF catalysts demonstrate excellent performance, with a peak power density of 0.7 W cm −2 , indicating its potential feasibility for commercial applications.

Cyanate ester resin (CER) is an excellent thermosetting polymer. However, its brittleness and poor mechanical properties limit its application. The innovation of this work lies in the smart collaborative toughening effects of Eu 3+ /Tb 3+ @uCNTs working together with phenolphthalein polyether sulfone (marked as PES-C) on dicyanate ester of bisphenol F. Tb 3+ -complex enhances Eu 3+ @uCNT-effects, and the cooperation of PES-C together with Eu 3+ -Tb 3+ @uCNTs (marked as ET-uC) functions strongly to increase flexural, tensile, and impact strengths by 209%, 120%, and 286%, respectively. When additions of ET-uC ratio at 0.6 wt% and PES-C ratio at 15% to CER. At the same time, we can get more multiple enhancing effects can be observed as below. The introduction of ET-uC reduces the curing temperature of the composite material from 342°C to 271°C. At the same time, the mass loss rate decreased from 87% to 55%. The intensity of luminescent CER/ET-uC/PES-C is much stronger compared to CER/ET-C/PES-C. If the curing temperature is 250°C, the luminescence lifetimes of CER/ET-C/PES-C and CER/ET-uC/PES-C become 411.23 and 731.91 μs, respectively. These strong data confirm that our strategy of ET-uC collaborating with the linear thermal stable polymer of PES-C functions has generated the breakthrough to improve the comprehensive properties of CER.

Aiming for promoting the capacity and cycling stability of O3-type NaNi 1/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 1/3 O 2 (NFM), the cathode material of sodium ion batteries (SIBs) with the most potential for industrialization, Na(Ni 1/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 1/3 ) 0.99 Mo 0.01 O 1.99 F 0.01 (NFM-MoF), Na(Ni 1/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 1/3 ) 0.99 Mo 0.01 O 2 (NFM-Mo) and NaNi 1/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 1/3 O 1.99 F 0.01 (NFM-F) were successfully synthesized by solid phase method. The electrochemical performance of the doped samples was compared with that of the pristine NFM. The mechanism of the single- or dual-doping was explored by XRD Rietveld refinement and XPS. The NFM-MoF exhibits the highest initial specific discharge capacity of 137mAhg −1 at 1 C with a retention of 91.97% after 100 cycles and the smallest polarization (0.32 V), which could be contributed to the highest Ni 2+ content and highest D Na + (7.335 ×10 −13 cm 2 ·s −1 ) caused by the synergistic effect of Mo and F dual-doping. The highest Fe 3+ content in the NFM-Mo leads to the higher initial discharge capacity of 1 36 mAhg −1 at 1 C with a relative lower retention of 83.38%, which is due to the structure instability resulting from Fe migration and the lowest Mn content, than that of the NFM-F (85.31%). It illustrates that the Mn 4+ plays a crucial role in stabilizing the structure during Na + migrating. The superiority of the discharge capacity of the NFM-Mo become narrow with rates rise, due to its lower D Na + (4.229 ×10 −13 cm 2 ·s −1 ) than that of the NFM-F D Na + (5.681 ×10 −13 cm 2 ·s −1 ). It verifies that it is a diffusion control process at high rates. Mo and F dual-doping in NFM was proved to amplify the benefit of Ni 2+ increasing, meanwhile restrain undesirable Fe increasing due to the synergistic effect.

The organic pollutants discharged from industrial wastewater have caused serious harm to human health. The efficient photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants under sunlight shows promise for industrial applications and energy utilization. In this study, a modified TiO2photocatalyst doped with bismuth (Bi) and fluorine (F) and composited with SnO2and SiO2was prepared, and its performance for the degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) under simulated sunlight was evaluated. Through the optimization of the doping levels of Bi and F, as well as the ratio of SnO2and SiO2to TiO2, the optimal catalyst reached degradation efficiency of 100% for RhB within 20 min under simulated sunlight, with a first-order reaction rate constant of 0.291 min−1. This value was 15, 41, 6.5, and 3.3 times higher than those of TiO2/SnO2, Bi/TiO2, Bi-TiO2/SnO2, and F/Bi-TiO2/SnO2, respectively. The active species detection showed that h+was the most crucial active species in the process. The role of Bi and F addition and SnO2-SiO2compositing was investigated by characterization. Bi formed a chemical bonding with TiO2by doping into TiO2. The absorbance intensity in the UV and visible light regions was improved by SnO2and F modification. Composite with SiO2led to a larger surface area that allowed for more RhB adsorption sites. These beneficial modifications greatly enhanced the photocatalytic activity of the catalyst.

Biomass-derived fluorine and nitrogen co-doped carbon dots (F, N-CDs) were synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method using Rhododendron simsii flowers as the precursor. The prepared F, N-CDs exhibited favorable optical properties, good water solubility, and a pronounced enhancement effect on the chemiluminescence (CL) of the Luminol-K 2 S 2 O 8 -NaOH system. The optical characteristics were systematically investigated by UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, and fluorescence lifetime analysis. The possible CL enhancement mechanism was further investigated through reactive oxygen species scavenging experiments and singlet oxygen probe experiments. On this basis, an enhanced flow-injection chemiluminescence (FI-CL) method was developed for the determination of levetiracetam (LEV). Under the optimized conditions, the relative CL intensity exhibited a satisfactory linear relationship with LEV concentration over the range of 0.10–10.00 mM, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 2.02 × 10 −3 mM and a limit of quantification (LOQ) of 6.71 × 10 −3 mM. The proposed method was successfully applied to the commercial LEV pharmaceutical formulations, giving recoveries of 94.8–103.1% and relative standard deviations (RSDs) below 4.68%. These results demonstrate the potential of biomass-derived carbon dots for spectroscopic and characterization and chemiluminescence-based analytical applications.

As a promising high-voltage cathode material candidate for next-generation high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), spinel-type LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (LNMO) has attracted significant attention due to its high operating voltage (~4.7 V). However, its intrinsic structural instability and severe surfacial side reactions lead to poor cycling stability and rate capability. This study presents an innovative low-temperature calcination strategy to synthesize Ti/F co-doped LNMO (LNMO-TiF3-x) cathode materials, utilizing TiF3 as a dual-functional dopant. Both experimental and theoretical investigations demonstrate that the introduced Ti3+/Ti4+ redox couple activates additional Mn-based capacity within the 4.2 V region, while contributing a minor yet measurable reversible capacity. Simultaneously, Ti/F co-doping strengthens the lattice through covalent bonding, effectively suppressing transition metal dissolution and synergistically enhancing cycling stability. Furthermore, Ti4+ doping expands the (111) lattice spacing, which facilitates Li+ diffusion kinetics and significantly enhances rate capabilities. The optimized LNMO-TiF3-4 exhibits outstanding performance, delivering 131.9 mAh g-1 at 10 C and maintaining 72.4% capacity retention after 1000 cycles at 5 C. This work not only demonstrates the high electrochemical performance of LNMO-TiF3-x but also offers new insights into bulk-interface synergistic engineering for advanced high-voltage cathode materials.

Core-shell F-doped carbon coated SiO composites with interspaces and some small voids (SiO@F-doped C) are successfully fabricated using bulk SiO as starting material. With the assistance of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), both etching and carbon coating of SiO are firstly performed in a single step, which largely lowers the production cost of materials. The SiO@F-doped C composite obtained by annealing the mixture of SiO and PTFE with a mass ratio of 5:3 at 650 °C shows the highest stable discharge capacity with excellent cycling stability. It delivers a stable discharge capacity of about 975 mAh g −1 at a current density of 100 mA g −1 . Even after the current density increases to 1600 mA g −1 , a stable discharge capacity of about 553 mAh g −1 can be achieved. At a current density of 400 mA g −1 , the composite maintains a discharge capacity of 752 mAh g −1 after 350 cycles, the retention of which is 99.2% versus that in the second cycle. Compared with the annealed SiO, in addition to higher conductivity, the ions diffusion rate of the SiO@F-doped C composite increases 2.94 times while the volume expansion falls by more than half, which should be responsible for its significantly enhanced electrochemical performance.

Next-generation wide color gamut displays require the development of efficient and toxic-free light-emitting materials meeting the crucial Rec. 2020 standard. With the rapid progress of green and red perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs), blue PeLEDs remain a central challenge because of the undesirable color coordinates and poor spectra stability. Here, we report Cs 3 CeBr x I 6− x ( x = 0 to 6) with the cryolite-like structure and stable and tunable color coordinates from (0.17, 0.02) to (0.15, 0.04). Further encouraged by the short exciton lifetime (26.1 ns) and high photoluminescence quantum yield (~76%), we construct Cs 3 CeBr x I 6− x -based rare-earth LEDs via thermal evaporation. A seed layer strategy is conducted to improve the device’s performance. The optimal Cs 3 CeI 6 device achieves a maximum external quantum efficiency of 3.5% and a luminance of 470 cd m −2 with stable deep-blue color coordinates of (0.15, 0.04). Our work opens another avenue to achieving efficient and spectrally stable deep-blue LEDs.
