Lithium (Li) - and manganese (Mn)-rich oxides ( x Li 2 MnO 3 ·(1− x ) Li TM O 2 , TM = Ni, Co, Mn, etc.) are one of the most promising cathode materials because of their high theorical capacity, which is contributed by the redox of both transition metal cations and oxygen anion. However, anionic redox leads to transition-metal migration and release of lattice oxygen, which further triggers voltage decay and capacity fade. Here, we report a dual-doping and multiphase co-existence strategy to tackle the structure degradation of Li- and Mn-rich materials and enhance electrochemical kinetics. La–Ti dual cations doping strength the TM -O bonds and improve cycling stability, and the inducement of LaMnO 3+ δ (LaMO) phase provides higher conductivity. As a result, the unique architecture presents a favourable rate performance, improved capacity retention, and suppressed voltage decay. After 200 cycles at 1C (250 mA g −1 ), the La–Ti dual cations doped Li-and Mn-rich material shows 24 % higher capacity retention and 52 % lower voltage decay compared to the non-doped material. This study demonstrates the potential of dual transition-metal ion doping combined with doping-induced perovskite phase to enhance the performance of Li- and Mn-rich materials.

As a representative magnetic oxide absorber, Fe 3 O 4 has attracted considerable research attention owing to its remarkable magnetic saturation strength as well as semiconducting properties. Doping Fe 3 O 4 with La 3+ leads to 3d-4f magnetic coupling and ion distribution changes due to the unique electron configuration and large ionic radius of La 3+ , thereby greatly enhancing the magnetic performance. However, high density, low dielectric loss, and low permeability at high frequencies inhibit the electromagnetic wave absorption (EMWA) performance of ferrites. In this study, stick-shaped Sn metal-organic framework (MOF) is in-situ grown on La 3+ -doped Fe 3 O 4 using a surfactant. After high-temperature annealing, the SnO 2 /porous carbon composites derived from Sn-MOF wrap the ferrite, forming a core-shell heterostructure, which not only prevents oxidation but also enhances the EMWA performance. Among the prepared La x Fe 3-x O 4 /SnO 2 /C (LFSC) samples, LFSC-2 (with La x Fe 3-x O 4 to Sn-MOF ratio of 1:2) exhibits strong absorption performance with a minimum reflection loss ( RL min ) of −44.1 dB. Furthermore, the gradient metamaterial based on LFSC-3 shows ultra-broadband EMWA with an effective absorption bandwidth ( RL min ≤ −10 dB) of 13.17 GHz. In addition, the LFSC-2 sample demonstrates excellent radar stealth capability in the radar cross section (RCS) far-field response, achieving an RCS reduction value of 20.4 dB∙m 2 .

Li–La–Zr–O thin films were successfully fabricated using the sol-gel spin coating method and the effects of the addition of surfactant in the solution were studied. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and Atomic Force Microscope were used to investigate the characteristics of these films and an amorphous structure and smooth surface on the films were revealed. The ionic conductivity of the film was investigated by impedance analysis. The results showed that the room-temperature ionic conductivity of the film increases with the content of surfactant, from 1.8 × 10 −6 S/cm for 0.5 wt% to 3.9 × 10 −6 S/cm for 1.5 wt%. However, further increasing the content of surfactant can deteriorate the property of the thin film on the contrary. The improvement of the property can be attributed to the improvement of the morphology of the film. We propose that this Li–La–Zr–O thin film is a promising solid electrolyte for thin-film lithium-ion batteries.

Ni-rich layered oxides offer numerous advantages such as high discharge capacity, cost-effectiveness, and environmental friendliness, making them the mainstream cathodes for high-energy density lithium-ion batteries. However, their widespread commercialization is hindered by critical challenges in cycling performance, stemming from unstable interface and structure, particularly at elevated charge cut-off voltages. Herein, a dual-modification strategy combining La doping and La 4 NiLiO 8 coating was proposed to synergistically enhance the surface/interface and structure stability of the LiNi 0.83 Co 0.11 Mn 0.06 O 2 (referred to as NCM83) cathode. Unlike conventional methods, a well-designed La(OH) 3 coating pretreatment was employed on the Ni 0.83 Co 0.11 Mn 0.06 (OH) 2 precursor. This pretreatment aimed to facilitate the in-situ formation of La doping and La 4 NiLiO 8 during the lithiation of the coated precursor, while ensuring desired uniformity of the La 4 NiLiO 8 coating and La doping. This dual-modification strategy integrated the advantages of both La doping and La 4 NiLiO 8 coating, demonstrating excellent capability to improve the overall performance of NCM83. The La doping, acting as a pillar, not only strengthened the layered structure of the cathode to mitigate volume changes, but also enhanced Li + diffusion by broadening the c axis spacing. The La 4 NiLiO 8 coating efficiently protected the cathode from H 2 O/CO 2 attack and electrolyte erosion, while also facilitating Li + transport owing to its favorable Li-conductive properties. Such a dual-modification strategy significantly enhanced the electrochemical performance of NCM83, as demonstrated by the excellent long-term cyclic stability, rate capability, and thermal stability at a high charge cut-off voltage of 4.5 V. This work highlighted the benefits of integrating elemental doping and surface coating, while offering a promising synthetic protocol for straightforward and effective dual-modification of various cathodes.

NiFe-layered double hydroxide (NiFe-LDH) and La-, Mo- or W-doped NiFe-LDH microparticles (NiFeX-LDH, X = La, Mo, W) were synthesized via the co-precipitation method. Their adsorption characteristics were evaluated by the removal of methyl orange (MO) and hexavalent chromium (Cr6+). The effects of the metal ion doping type, doping concentration (0–3at%), pH and temperature on the MO adsorption properties were systematically studied. The results show that W-doped NiFe-LDH exhibits superior MO removal capacity compared to undoped or La- or Mo-doped NiFe-LDH at the same 1at% doping level, which is attributed to the increased layer charge density and strong affinity for the π-electron systems of MO molecules. The NiFeW-LDH-1at% sample demonstrated the best MO adsorption performance within the W-doping range of 0–3at%, achieving a superior adsorption capability of 666.67 mg/g with a significantly shorter equilibrium time (10–120 min) compared to the similar LDH. NiFeW-LDH-1at% showed promising reusability, with its adsorption efficiency remaining 78.3% of its initial level after five adsorption–desorption cycles. The MO uptake onto NiFeX-LDH was attributed to the combined effect of anion exchange and the attraction of layer charge. In addition, the adsorption of NiFeW-LDH-1at% matched well with the Langmuir isotherm model and pseudo-second-order kinetic model, indicating a monolayer and chemical adsorption. Furthermore, NiFeW-LDH-1at% effectively adsorbed of Cr2O72−in the aqueous solution, revealing that W doping significantly enhances Cr(VI) removal performance. The maximum theoretical adsorption capacity onto NiFeW-LDH-1at% reached 63.25 mg/g, which was notably higher than that of the pristine NiFe-LDH adsorbent (53.56 mg/g). Overall, the W-doped NiFe-LDH material, as a low-cost and highly efficient adsorbent, shows great potential for wastewater treatment application.

The use of transition metal-activated peroxymonosulfate (PMS) as an advanced oxidation technology has gained recognition. This study developed a catalyst using cobalt–lanthanum bimetallic oxide supported on layered molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) as a carrier. The Co–La/MoS 2 catalyst was synthesised through coprecipitation, followed by calcination with an optimised metal ratio of Co:La = 2:1 to activate PMS and degrade trace chloramphenicol (CAP) in water. The chemical composition of the catalyst was confirmed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). At catalyst and PMS dosages of 0.1 and 0.5 g·L −1 , respectively, the degradation rate of CAP was 95% within 30 min. The catalyst exhibited strong resistance to most interfering anions and maintained a high degradation rate at pH 3–11. Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis revealed the potential degradation pathways of CAP in the Co–La/MoS 2 (2:1)/PMS system. For other pollutants, such as oxytetracycline, complete degradation was achieved within 20 min, demonstrating the broad applicability of the Co–La/MoS 2 (2:1)/PMS system for the degradation and removal of antibiotic organic contaminants. This study offers a feasible approach for the degradation of antibiotic organic pollutants, including CAP, in natural water bodies. Graphical abstract

The study employed a direct hydrothermal method to synthesize NiO/La-KTaO 3 heterojunction photocatalysts. The photocatalytic efficiency of the composites was assessed by their ability to destroy isoamyl xanthate in the presence of Ultraviolet light, mimicking the conditions seen in flotation wastewater. The results showed a significantly greater photocatalytic activity when comparing the composite catalyst to KTaO 3 . A photocatalytic reaction was performed utilizing a 40 mg NiO/K 1−x La x TaO 3 (x = 0.04) photocatalyst at pH = 3. The reaction was carried out using 50 mL of isoamyl xanthate synthesis wastewater, which had a concentration of 20 mg/L. The degradation rate achieved after 30 min was 87.28%. The addition of nickel oxide (NiO) and the introduction of La into the K lattice position were thought to facilitate charge separation, migration, and the generation of additional active sites, hence augmenting the catalytic impact. The findings from radical capture tests indicated that the ·O 2− (superoxide ion) served as the principal active species in the photocatalytic process, playing a substantial role. The process of photodegradation of isoamyl xanthate was determined through the utilization of different analytical and testing methods. This work introduces a direct and effective approach for the eco-friendly decomposition of xanthate flotation wastewater.

The practical application of conventional Ti/SnO 2 -Sb electrodes is hindered by their low oxygen evolution potential (OEP) and rapid deactivation. Rare earth doping has been proposed to enhance electrode stability and catalytic activity; however, the comparative effects of different rare earth elements (e.g., La vs. Eu) on both structural and electrochemical properties remain unclear. In this paper, the fabrication of lanthanum- and europium-doped Ti/SnO 2 -Sb (TSS) electrodes and the electrochemical degradation of methylene blue (MB) were investigated. Although both lanthanum (La) and europium (Eu) are rare earth elements with many similarities, lanthanum (La)-modified electrode exhibits distinct performance characteristics. It is indicated that the Ti/SnO 2 -Sb-La (TSSL) electrode has a comparatively better crystal phase, enhanced surface hydrophobicity, and better electrochemical performance. The TSSL electrode exhibits a higher OEP of 1.84 V than other electrodes, showing a 0.15 V increase when compared with the undoped electrode. The peak oxidation current reaches 0.82 mA/cm 2 , which provides more active sites for the catalytic reaction. It is found that the La-doped electrode has better performance in wastewater treatment; the TSSL electrode shows a 45% increase in degradation efficiency when compared with the Ti/SnO 2 -Sb-Eu (TSSE) electrode for treatment of 50 ppm MB in 25 min. Moreover, the effects of current density and the initial concentration of MB were also investigated. Considering the degradation rate and energy consumption, the optimum current density for wastewater treatment is 20 mA/cm 2 . The outcome indicated that the degradation of MB was up to 98.5% in 25 min.

The exploration of clean, environmentally friendly, efficient and economical metal electrocatalysts is becoming more and more in-depth, but catalyst activity and stability are still the main goals. Herein, a thin regular pentagonal rough nanosheet array (La-CoNiOOH@FeSe@NiSe/NF) grown on a three-dimensional porous conductive surface was designed and synthesized. The prepared electrode material exhibited good catalytic activity in 1 M KOH solution, required only 270 mV of overpotential to provide 10 mA cm−2 current density for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and showed excellent stability for at least 90 hours during the OER process. The characterization test results proved that the incorporation of La changed the surface electronic structure, optimized the interface, modulated the active site on the surface of the material, and exposed a large number of active sites, thus improving the activity and stability of the catalyst material. At the same time, such a rough surface also gives the material excellent wettability and anti-bubble adhesion, which is also a key factor in maintaining the catalytic activity and OER stability of the material. This method provides a new idea for developing an efficient and economical electrolytic hydroelectricity catalyst.

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are attractive candidates for hybrid supercapacitor cathodes due to their high theoretical capacitance. However, their practical application is hindered by insufficient achievable capacity and compromised cycling stability caused by irreversible phase transitions. Herein, we developed a quaternary NiCoScLa-LDH via a one-pot hydrothermal method by co-doping scandium (Sc) and lanthanum (La) into NiCo-LDHs. Systematic investigation of trimetallic NiCoLa-LDH revealed that single La doping effectively increases specific capacity (745.2 C g −1 at 1 A g −1 ), while its large ionic radius induces structural instability, leading to rapid capacity decay (50 % capacity retention after 1500 cycles). First-principles calculations demonstrate that Sc doping clearly suppresses the deformation of the hexagonal structure of NiCoLa-LDH. Furthermore, La and Sc co-doping synergistically modulates the chemical coordination environments of Ni/Co and reduces the bandgap, thereby facilitating electrochemical reaction kinetics. The optimized NiCoScLa-LDH exhibits superior electrochemical performance, delivering a high specific capacitance of 744.2 C g −1 at 1 A g −1 , remarkable rate capability (75 % capacitance retention at 10 A g −1 ), and long-term durability (82 % capacity retention after 15,000 cycles). When assembled into a hybrid supercapacitor, the material achieves a maximum energy density of 45.6 Wh kg −1 at 410 W kg −1 and outstanding cycling stability (100 % capacitance retention after 45,000 cycles). This work provides fundamental insights into rational multi-element doping strategies for designing high-performance LDH-based supercapacitor cathodes.

Delayed injured nerve regeneration remains a clinical problem, partly ascribing to the lack of regulation of regenerative microenvironment , topographical cues, and blood nourishment. Functional electrospun conduits have been established as an efficacious strategy to facilitate nerve regeneration by providing structural guidance, regulating the regenerative immune microenvironment, and improving vascular regeneration. However, the synthetic polymers conventionally used to fabricate electrospinning scaffolds, such as poly(L-lactic acid), poly(glycolic acid), and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid), can cause aseptic inflammation due to acidic degradation products . Therefore, a poly[3(S)-methyl-morpholine-2,5-dione- co -lactic] [P(MMD- co -LA)] containing alanine units with good mechanical properties and reduced acid degradation products, was obtained by melt ring-opening polymerization (ROP). Here, we aimed to explore the effect of oriented nanofiber/Deferoxamine (DFO, a hydrophilic angiogenic drug) scaffold in the rapid construction of a favorable regenerative microenvironment, including cell bridge, polarized vascular system, and immune microenvironment. In vitro studies have shown that the scaffold can sustainably release DFO, which accelerates the migration and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), as well as the expression of genes related to angiogenesis . The physical clues provided by the arranged nanofibers can regulate the polarization of macrophages and reduce the expression of inflammatory factors. Furthermore, the in vivo results demonstrated a higher M2 polarization level of the oriented nanofibrous scaffold treatment group with reducedinflammation reaction in the injured nerve. Moreover, the in-situ release of DFO up-regulated the expression of HIF1-α and SDF-1α genes, as well as the expression of HIF1-α′s target gene VEGF, further promoting revascularization and enhancing nerve regeneration at the defect site . The obtained results provide essential insights on accelerating the creation of the nerve regeneration microenvironment by combining the physiological processes of nerve regeneration with topographical cues and chemical signal induction.

With the linewidth of integrated circuits has progressively narrowed, imposing higher demands on the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process. Cerium oxide nanoparticles are widely used as abrasives in CMP, with their physical structure and the surface content of Ce 3+ ions and oxygen vacancies directly affecting their CMP performance. Here in, we synthesized La/Pr/Nd doped CeO 2 with the porous self-assembled spherical structures. Doping with La/Pr/Nd reduced the grain size of cerium oxide, increased its specific surface area, decreased the pore size, and increased the pore volume. HR-TEM analysis shows that the porous self-assembled spherical CeO 2 primarily exposes the (111) crystal facet. Additionally, the density functional theory (DFT) calculation, XPS, H 2 -TPR and XANES analyses shown that doping of La/Pr/Nd facilitated the formation of oxygen vacancies and increased the Ce 3+ content on the (111) crystal facet of the CeO 2 . La atoms are more likely to stabilize on the CeO 2 (111) surface compared to Pr and Nd atoms. The CMP results indicated that, The La-CeO 2 exhibited a higher MRR of 338 ± 7.54 nm/min, which is a 35 % increase compared to p-CeO 2 , and achieved superior surface roughness ( Ra = 0.201 ± 0.010 nm).
