The photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting performance of Si-based PEC devices is usually restricted by low stability and weak photogenerated carrier transport ability. Herein, a micropyramid array structure (p-SiMPs)/p-Cu2O/PhC2Cu/Pt photocathode device with a p-p-n heterojunction structure is developed. In this tandem PEC device, a p-p heterojunction of p-SiMPs/p-Cu2O is achieved, endowing a higher interface electric field and stronger energy of photoinduced electrons for PEC water reduction. In addition, a stable n-type PhC2Cu protective layer is prepared on the surface of the PEC device by the photoassisted polymerization method, which can improve the stability of PEC water reduction largely. After Pt cocatalytic layer deposition, the p-SiMPs/p-Cu2O/PhC2Cu/Pt tandem photocathode can achieve a saturation photocurrent density of −30 mA/cm2 at −0.9 V (vs RHE) and a photocurrent threshold voltage of −0.1 V for water reduction. This work provides a silicon-based p-p-n heterojunction tandem structure for the PEC water splitting; meanwhile, it indicates that PhC2Cu is a potential material to improve the stability of silicon-based PEC devices.

Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) can persistently accumulate in body and threaten human health. Bile acids and intestinal microbial metabolism have emerged as important signaling molecules in the host. However, knowledge on which intestinal microbiota and bile acids are modified by OCPs remains unclear. In this study, adult male C57BL/6 mice were exposed to p, p’-dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (p, p’-DDE) and β-hexachlorocyclohexane (β-HCH) for 8 weeks. The relative abundance and composition of various bacterial species were analyzed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Bile acid composition was analyzed by metabolomic analysis using UPLC-MS. The expression of genes involved in hepatic and enteric bile acids metabolism was measured by real-time PCR. Expression of genes in bile acids synthesis and transportation were measured in HepG2 cells incubated with p, p’-DDE and β-HCH. Our findings showed OCPs changed relative abundance and composition of intestinal microbiota, especially in enhanced Lactobacillus with bile salt hydrolase (BSH) activity. OCPs affected bile acid composition, enhanced hydrophobicity , decreased expression of genes on bile acid reabsorption in the terminal ileum and compensatory increased expression of genes on synthesis of bile acids in the liver. We demonstrated that chronic exposure of OCPs could impair intestinal microbiota; as a result, hepatic and enteric bile acid profiles and metabolism were influenced. The findings in this study draw our attention to the hazards of chronic OCPs exposure in modulating bile acid metabolism that might cause metabolic disorders and their potential to cause related diseases in human.

Two-dimensional transition metal carbides (MXenes) have a unique structure, excellent electronic conductivity and a low Li+ diffusion barrier, and show potential for application in energy storage. Especially, MXenes can act as a conductive matrix to achieve excellent lithium storage performance. Herein, a Ti3C2Tx MXene/carbon nanotubes@red phosphorus (Ti3C2Tx/CNTs@P) nanohybrid with stable Ti–O–P bonds is fabricated. The CNTs are introduced into Ti3C2Tx to construct a conductive network, and then the Ti3C2Tx/CNTs are combined with P by a ball-milling method. In this process, the surface oxygen-containing functional groups of Ti3C2Tx interact with P, forming Ti–O–P bonds. Owing to the large capacity contribution of P, the conductive network and buffering role of Ti3C2Tx/CNTs, and the effect of the Ti–O–P bond, the Ti3C2Tx/CNTs@P nanohybrid exhibits a superior reversible capacity of 2598 mA h g−1 at 0.05C (1C = 2600 mA g−1, based on the active material P), excellent cycling stability (2078 mA h g−1 after 500 cycles) and superior rate capability (454 mA h g−1 at 30C). These results demonstrate that the Ti3C2Tx/CNTs@P nanohybrid offers fascinating potential for high-performance lithium-ion batteries.

Electrocatalytic alkynol semihydrogenation (EASH) represents a promising alternative to conventional alkenol production. However, it is plagued by severe overhydrogenation and a competitive hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). In this work, we synthesize a Pd3BiCx intermetallic carbide metallene (Pd3BiCx ene) as a high-performance electrocatalyst for the selective semihydrogenation of 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol (MBY). At −0.3 V vs RHE, the catalyst system achieves 94.1% conversion, 95.3% selectivity, and 90.4% Faradaic efficiency while maintaining long-term stability over 70 h. Mechanistic studies demonstrate that carbon doping induces synergistic p-d-p orbital hybridization among Pd, Bi, and C. This electronic structure modulation optimizes the adsorption energy of MBY while facilitating the desorption of 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol (MBE). Furthermore, carbon doping kinetically hinders overhydrogenation by eliminating subsurface hydrogen species and increasing the energy barrier for the overhydrogenation step. Concurrently, this p-d-p hybridization stabilizes surface adsorbed hydrogen (H*ads), thereby promoting the hydrogenation pathway and suppressing the HER. This work establishes an effective catalyst design strategy for fabricating p-d-p orbital-hybridized intermetallic catalysts, offering an innovative approach for high-efficiency EASH.

Water splitting through electrolysis has been recognized as a promising solution for the production of hydrogen and oxygen to advance many renewable energy conversion and storage systems, while the key is the innovative exploration of cost-efficient electrocatalysts. Herein, interface-modified Ni–Fe–P/Co–P/NF alloys were achieved through a facile electroless plating strategy, in which the constructed interfaces benefited not only from the strong electron interaction but also from the fast mass transfer, significantly boosting the oxygen evolution reaction and hydrogen evolution reaction catalytic performance. More interestingly, water-splitting cells assembled using Ni–Fe–P/Co–P/NF-5L alloys as the cathode and anode, respectively, only requires a cell voltage of ∼1.52 V at 10 mA cm–2, far lower than that of the integrated Pt–C/NF and RuO2/NF couple (1.61 V). Also, the Ni–Fe–P/Co–P/NF-5L||Ni–Fe–P/Co–P/NF-5L system shows an outstanding durability over a long-term operation of 48 h at 10 mA cm–2. The work demonstrates an innovative strategy to construct heterogeneous interfaces for high-performance electrocatalysts and is suggested to be readily extended to regulate heterogeneous interfaces among other binary and ternary electrocatalysts, such as transition metal phosphides/borides, for scaling up water-splitting technology.

To deeply understand the role of P in hydrodeoxygenation (HDO), SiO2-supported Ni and Ni–P catalysts with different P/Ni ratios (x) were prepared. The as-prepared samples were characterized by various characterization methods. The HDO activity and product distribution over the Ni/SiO2 and N–P/SiO2-x were compared and the effects of x on the structure, acidity, formation mechanism of active phases and HDO performance were studied taking m-cresol HDO as a model reaction. The results showed that the introduction of P promotes the formation of smaller active sites and contributes to the creation of weak and medium strength acid sites through the formation of P–OH groups and Niδ+ in Ni2P. HDO over the Ni/SiO2 catalyst occurs mainly via the hydrogenation (HYD) route with 3-methyl-cyclohexanol (3-MCHnol) as the main product. However, for Ni–P/SiO2-x catalysts, methyl-cyclohexane (MCH) selectivity increases first and then decreases with the increase of x, reaching a maximum of 95% at x = 1. The acidity generated by the introduction of P contributes to increased MCH selectivity, while the dehydration of 3-MCHnol to MCH occurs mainly on acid sites. However, the excessively high P content (x ≥ 2.0) leads to a significant increase of MB (toluene) selectivity, which is associated with the increase in Ni(I) sites. About 100% m-cresol conversion was achieved with Ni–P/SiO2-1.0 when the m-cresol (g)/catalyst (g) ratio was 3, with MCH (99.4%) as the major product, showing great promise for deep HDO catalysis.

Long-lasting chemiluminescence of lucigenin/p-aminophenol (4-AP) system is explored for the first time and possible chemiluminescence enhancement mechanism is also proposed in this work. 4-AP can enhance chemiluminescence of lucigenin nearly 150 times and is stable for nearly 5 min, which overcomes the need of flow syringe pump. While o-aminophenol (2-AP) slightly enhances chemiluminescence of lucigenin and m-aminophenol (3-AP) does not. Thus, it can be applied in discrimination of three aminophenol isomers. More importantly, cyclic voltammetry proves the lowest oxidation peak for 4-AP at 115 mV, which is speculated to be the main reason for 4-AP induced chemiluminescence enhancement. It has been applied in chemiluminescence enhancement detection of 4-AP and p-nitrophenol (4-NP) from 80 nM to 60 μM, from 0.5 μM to 60 μM with limit of detection (LOD) of 26 nM and 0.17 μM, respectively. It shows high selectivity and anti-interference in chemiluminescence enhancment detection of 4-AP and 4-NP towards other organic compounds and metal ions. It also exhibits high accuracy in chemiluminescence enhancment detection of 4-AP and 4-NP in lake water with recoveries from 98.7% to 101.5% for and recoveries from 98.7% to 102.2%, respectively. It expands the study of long-lasting lucigenin chemiluminescence system and chemiluminescence method utilized in discrimination of aminophenols isomers.

The p orbital electrons in main-group metals are generally underrated in the catalytic activity. Herein, an antimony (Sb) single-atom bipyridine-based covalent organic framework (SASb-TpBpy-COF) with the Sb─N coordination is successfully synthesized via 5p-2p orbitals hybridizarion for accomplishing the highly selective piezosynthesis of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) by the non-radical oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Notably, the synthesized SASb-TpBpy-COF achieved an impressive H 2 O 2 piezosynthesis yield of 1500.58 µmol g −1 h −1 , which is up to more than 7-times higher than the reported catalysts. Moreover, the characterization results confirmed that the 5p-2p orbitals hybrid Sb single-atom can intrinsically drive the local polarization level, charge migration dynamics, electron-hole pairs separation, and affinity toward O 2 , consequently enhancing the piezoactivity and selective Pauling-type O 2 adsorption. Besides, experimental results clarified that the fast H 2 O 2 piezosynthesis is selectively dominated by the non-radical ORR. Furthermore, the dynamic Sb-OOH* intermediate is directly detected, proving the selective Pauling-type O 2 adsorption on the Sb single-atom sites. Moreover, this system can achieve an in situ degradation efficiency of over 80% for various emerging pollutants even in the real water samples. Conclusively, this study broadens the fundamental understanding for the fast H 2 O 2 piezosynthesis and provides a highly potential candidate technology for in situ water purification.

This study introduces a novel p -diethylene glycol monomethyl ether cinnamyl formamide-based disulfide monomer , N,N′ -(disulfanediylbis(2,1-phenylene)) bis(4-(4-(2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy) phenyl)-2-oxobut-3-enamide) (Mp-BSCF), designed to reduce the volume shrinkage of photosensitive resins and initiate monomer polymerization under 455 nm LED light irradiation. The photochemical properties and photoinitiation efficiency of Mp-BSCF are systematically investigated using UV–vis absorption spectroscopy , electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and real-time infrared spectroscopy . Although its weak absorption around 455 nm, Mp-BSCF can generate arylthiyl radicals under 455 nm LED irradiation, and then effectively initiate the polymerization of triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA)/A glycerolate dimethacrylate (Bis-GMA) system. Increasing Mp-BSCF addition enhances the final double bond conversion and maximum polymerization rate of the TEGDMA/Bis-GMA system, reaching up to 82.0 % and 2.02 % s −1 , respectively. Notably, Mp-BSCF significantly reduces the volume shrinkage of the photopolymerization system, with the addition of 10 % Mp-BSCF resulting in a 50 % reduction compared to the control system. This reduction is attributed to the dynamic reversible nature of the S S bond “breaking-recovery” and the intermolecular hydrogen bond interaction. Additionally, Mp-BSCF improves the thermal stability, friction resistance, and hardness of the TEGDMA/Bis-GMA photopolymerization system.

In this study, four morphologically distinct Fe2O3-based gas sensors were synthesized via different surfactantassisted hydrothermal method, among which the nanorod-structured Fe2O3 exhibited optimal sensing properties. Loading CuO into this form of iron oxide sensing material to construct p-n heterojunctions, with systematic investigation of the influence of varying CuO loading concentrations on sensor performance. Systematic investigation revealed that CuO modification significantly improved the sensor response characteristics. The optimized sensor with 15 wt% CuO loading demonstrated exceptional performance, exhibiting an ultrahigh response value of 1780 toward 100 ppm H2S at the operating temperature of 125°C, along with a rapid response time of 9 s. It provides a reasonable idea for the design of highly responsive hydrogen sulfide sensors.

A rational design principle for selecting optimal anion dopants in transition-metal compounds to enhance sulfur redox activity is lacking in Li-S batteries. Herein, we propose an accurate p-p-s orbital electronic coupling descriptor (involving the p -orbitals of anion dopants and anions in transition-metal compounds and the s -orbitals of Li in lithium polysulfides) as a criterion for choosing anion dopants to guide the development of efficient anion-doped Li-S catalysts through machine-learning, theoretical, and experimental validation. We reveal the relationship between the electronic properties of various anion-doped WSe 2 and the thermodynamics and kinetics of sulfur redox. Our findings show that moderate p-p-s orbital electronic coupling optimizes polysulfide adsorption, facilitating Li 2 S nucleation and decomposition, thereby minimizing Gibbs free energy and maximizing catalytic efficiency for sulfur redox. A volcano relationship between the p-p-s coupling strength and catalytic activity is established. The optimal B-WSe 2 /MXene catalyst achieves a ~ 3 Ah pouch cell with 430 Wh kg −1 specific energy and good cycle life (81.3% capacity retention over 71 cycles). These findings provide a guideline for designing efficient anion-doped Li-S catalysts with moderate p-p-s coupling to enable rapid sulfur catalytic conversion in Li-S batteries.
