Using the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) with Cu-based electrocatalysts to achieve carbon-neutral cycles remains a significant challenge because of its low selectivity and poor stability. Modulating the surface electron distribution by defects engineering or doping can effectively improve CO2RR performance. Herein, we synthesize the electrocatalyst of Vo-CuO(Sn) nanosheets containing oxygen vacancies and Sn dopants for application in CO2RR-to-CO. Density functional theory calculations confirm that the incorporation of oxygen vacancies and Sn atoms substantially reduces the energy barrier for *COOH and *CO intermediate formation, which results in the high efficiency, low overpotential, and superior stability of the CO2RR to CO conversion. This electrocatalyst possesses a high Faraday efficiency (FE) of 99.9% for CO at a low overpotential of 420 mV and a partial current density of up to 35.22 mA cm–2 at −1.03 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE). The FECO of Vo-CuO(Sn) could retain over 95% within a wide potential area from −0.48 to −0.93 V versus RHE. Moreover, we obtain long-term stability for more than 180 h with only a slight decay in its activity. Therefore, this work provides an effective route for designing environmentally friendly electrocatalysts to improve the selectivity and stability of the CO2RR to CO conversion.

Healing of infected chronic wounds faces dual challenges: persistent inflammation and impaired angiogenesis. To address these, SN-PB@PG nanocomplexes were prepared by hybridisation of nitroprusside (SNP) with Prussian blue (SN-PB NPs) and loaded with prodigiosin (PG). Under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, SN-PB NPs generated mild hyperthermia, facilitating the release of nitric oxide (NO) and PG to combat bacterial biofilms and multidrug-resistant pathogens. The in vivo assay using diabetic infected wounds demonstrated that SN-PB@PG NPs with NIR reduced the wound area to 10.6% by the 11th day, which is superior to that of control group (29.6%). In the flap transplantation experiments, the data showed SN-PB@PG NPs with NIR group only have a necrobiosis of 3.8% of flaps on the 8th day, which is superior to 31.3% of the control group. Additionally, the release of NO promoted vascular regeneration by up-regulating vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (CD31), and regenerated sarcomeric tissue by down-regulating MMP-9. The results indicated that the combination of SN-PB@PG NPs with gas and photothermal therapy exerted a combined antibacterial and wound healing effect. Compared to traditional clinical methods such as surgical debridement and hyperbaric oxygen therapy, this new strategy efficiently addresses issues of infection and healing, which is convenient for clinical application.

The challenges encountered by Pt-based electrocatalysts in alkaline hydrogen oxidation reaction include high Pt dosage and conflicting demands for modulating adsorption strengths among diverse intermediates. Here, an ultrasmall Pt cluster grafted on antimony tin oxide nanocrystalline with strong electron donor ability to minimal Pt dosage yet maximized electrocatalytic performance is developed. Mechanism studies show that the formation of Pt–Sn/Sb interaction at the heterointerface and the resultant reversed electron transfer selectively enhance the adsorption for OH - while concurrently weakening the binding strength for *H and CO toward Pt clusters. This accelerates the kinetics of H 2 /CO oxidation by promoting the binding of OH species with *H/*CO, yielding the catalyst with up to 5.7-fold higher mass-specific activity than benchmark Pt/C and increased resistance to CO poisoning. This work demonstrates the rational design of the synergistic multi-site interactions towards advanced Pt-based catalysts.

Liquid metal batteries (LMBs), with the merits of long lifespan and low cost, are deemed as one of the most promising energy storage technologies for large-scale energy storage applications due to the use of liquid metal electrodes and molten salt electrolytes. However, the consequent problem is that the poor wettability between graphite-based collectors and the liquid metal/alloy electrodes leads to large contact resistance, which limits the efficiency and stability of the battery. In this work, a transition layer in situ formed on a graphite-based positive electrode current collector by Ti additive is designed for the first time, which increases the wettability between the positive alloy and the current collector and improves the voltage efficiency of the Li||Sb-Sn cell from 85.6 to 88.4%. These results provide new ideas for the design of high-efficiency LMBs.

All-perovskite tandem solar cells (PTSCs) demonstrate exceptional potential to surpass the Shockley-Queisser (SQ) theoretical limit. However, practical implementation faces critical challenges due to a self-reinforcing photothermal-mechanical degradation mechanism originating from multiscale physical couplings. In this study, a multifunctional polyamine ligand triphenyltriamine thiophosphate (TPTA) was introduced into the tin-lead (Sn-Pb) perovskite solution system to establish an I-Sn-N coordination-mediated lattice stabilization framework, and the photothermal-mechanical coupling path was cut off from multiple aspects such as suppressing periodic oscillations and regulating stress. Consequently, single-junction Sn-Pb perovskite solar cells (PSCs) achieve a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 23.4% and retaining 94.9% of initial performance after 950 hours of maximum power point (MPP) tracking. When the device is integrated into the 2-terminal (2 T) tandem architecture, its PCE reaches a significant level of 29.6 % (certified PCE of 28.9%), and 93.4% of the initial efficiency can be maintained after 900 hours continuous operation.

Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 2 F 3 (NVPF) is a promising cathode material for sodium-ion batteries owing to its impressive theoretical capacity, elevated operating voltage, and stable structure. However, its practical utilization remains limited owing to its poor electronic conductivity. To overcome this issue, an Sn-doped and reduced graphene oxide (rGO)–coated NVPF cathode is successfully prepared using the sol–gel method. Sn substitution moderately widens the lattice spacing, facilitating intrinsic electronic conductivity, while rGO coating provides continuous conductive pathways along the particle surfaces, suppressing polarization and enhancing external electron transport. Herein, the optimized Na 3 V 1.93 Sn 0.07 (PO 4 ) 2 F 3 @rGO (NVSnPF-0.07@rGO) cathode reached a specific capacity of 123.0 mAh g −1 at 1 C, with a rate capability of 74.4 mAh g −1 at 30 C, which is superior to those of the unmodified NVPF cathode. The capacity retention remains at 80.7 % after 2500 cycles at 30 C. Density functional theory analysis reveals that Sn doping is beneficial for improving the electrical conductivity of NVPF. Finally, the NVSnPF-0.07@rGO//HC (hard carbon) full cell reaches a discharge output of 92.2 mAh g −1 at 1 C after long-term cycling and a Coulombic efficiency of ∼100 %. The evidence presented in this study provides a framework for advancing the functional properties of cathode materials.

The design of multimechanistic conjugates based on 10-hydroxycamptothecin (10-HCPT) offers a promising approach to reduce toxicity and enhance antitumor efficacy. We designed and synthesized a novel series of conjugates by linking melampomagnolide B (MMB) to 10-HCPT/SN-38 via diverse linkers. Among them, 6i1/6i2 exhibited remarkable anticolorectal cancer potency and minimal cytotoxicity toward normal THLE-2 cells. Mechanistic studies indicated that 6i1/6i2 could inhibit IκB kinase β (IKKβ), leading to the inhibition of p65 and IκBα phosphorylation, suppression of p65 nuclear translocation, and subsequent regulation of genes controlled by nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB). Additionally, they targeted topoisomerase I (Topo I), inducing DNA damage, reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, mitochondrial membrane potential loss, and S-phase arrest. In a CT-26 xenograft model, 6i1 and 6i2 (5 mg/kg) potently suppressed tumor growth, achieving TGI rates of 89.9% and 95.4% without observable toxicity.

Because of its tetragonal structure, β -Sn exhibits anisotropy in electromigration behavior. The diffusivity of Cu atoms along the c -axis of Sn is much faster than that along the a -axis; therefore, the orientation of the c -axis exerts a strong influence on Cu atomic motion. In this work, the effect of Sn grain c -axis on Cu atomic motion was investigated by using Cu reinforced Sn3.5Ag composite solder joints. The microstructure and morphology of the solder joints were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with a backscattered electron (BSE) detector. It was found that intermetallic compounds (IMCs) in the solder matrix were formed due to the migration of Cu atoms to the surface of the solder joint under current stressing. There was a large amount of IMCs on the solder matrix which protruded from the solder matrix. By changing the direction of electron flow, i.e. changing the anode and the cathode side, the IMCs which formed after current stressing in the solder matrix disappeared and the protruding Sn remained unchanged. The results revealed that the growth of IMCs was closely related to the migration of Cu atoms, while Cu atomic motion depended on the orientation of the Sn grain c -axis.

In this study, a simple hydrothermal method was used to synthesize metal-organic framework-derived Sn/W co-doped NiO hollow flower-like spherical structure. The prepared NiO composites were utilized to prepare gas sensors to explore the response characteristics to different gases. The results showed that the response of the bimetal-doped NiO hollow microspheres to trimethylamine was 95 at 100 ppm, which was 63 times that of the pristine NiO nanoflowers. In addition, the sensor has a ppb-level detection limit for trimethylamine (0.1 ppm, 1.5). These good sensing performance of the Sn/W co-doped NiO sensor are not only affected by the initial resistance(R a ), but are also closely related to the rich oxygen vacancies, special hollow flower-like spherical structure and high Ni 3+ /Ni 2+ ratio in the composite nanomaterials. This study provides an elegant co-doping method to improve the gas sensing performance of P-type MOS.

Sn-based materials receive a lot of attention because of their high theoretical specific capacity, acceptable price, and good electrical conductivity. However, Sn-based materials have a large volume expansion in the circulation process, leading to the rapid decay of capacity. According to the ion diffusion time formula: t = L2/2D, where L is the diffusion length or the particle size, and D is the diffusion constant of the ions and the electrons. It can be seen that reducing the particle size can significantly improve the multiplier performance of the material. At present, the main methods for preparing nano-sized metal/carbon composites are the high-energy ball grinding method, hydrothermal method, calcined metal, and organic matter precursor. In this paper, sodium alginate was used as a precursor system for the Fe-doped Sn @3D carbon composite material, which was applied to the lithium-ion battery anode to obtain excellent electrochemical performance (1133.5 mAhg −1 after 200 cycles at 0.2 Ag −1 ). The increase in the specific surface area of Fe-doped Sn @3D carbon also increases the charge transfer efficiency and further improves the multiplier performance of the electrode. Meanwhile, the nano-size and structure can better buffer the volume expansion and protect the structure of the electrode.

Nanocrystalline stannous oxide (SnO) powder has been prepared by ball-milling of micrometer-SnO in a nitrogen atmosphere. A cation deficiency of 6.5% was found in the nano-SnO sample by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. After annealing at 350, 450, or 550 °C under dynamic vacuum conditions, oxygen vacancies were found in the nano-SnO samples, as verified by electron paramagnetic resonance experiments. The samples displayed weak ferromagnetism; the sample with both 6.5% Sn and at least 7.5% O vacancies showed the maximum saturation magnetization, reaching almost 1.7 × 10–3 emu/g at room temperature. The O vacancies tended to gather around Sn vacancies. An L-shaped defect model composed of one Sn and two O vacancies has been established, and its ferromagnetism has been calculated by a first-principles method. We found that the L-shaped defect induced a magnetic moment of 0.55 μB in the SnO lattice, the main contribution to which came from a spin-polarized electron in the p orbital of a corner Sn atom.

All-solid-state polymer lithium-ion batteries are ideal choice for the next generation of rechargeable lithium-ion batteries due to their high energy, safety and flexibility. Among all polymer electrolytes, PEO-based polymer electrolytes have attracted extensive attention because they can dissolve various lithium salts. However, the ionic conductivity of pure PEO-based polymer electrolytes is limited due to high crystallinity and poor segment motion. An inorganic filler SiO 2 nanospheres and a plasticizer Succinonitrile (SN) are introduced into the PEO matrix to improve the crystallization of PEO, promote the formation of amorphous region, and thus improve the movement of PEO chain segment. Herein, a PEO 18 −LiTFSI−5 %SiO 2 −5 %SN composite solid polymer electrolyte (CSPE) was prepared by solution-casting. The high ionic conductivity of the electrolyte was demonstrated at 60 °C up to 3.3×10 −4 S cm −1 . Meanwhile, the electrochemical performance of LiFePO 4 /CSPE/Li all-solid-state battery was tested, with discharge capacity of 157.5 mAh g −1 at 0.5 C, and capacity retention rate of 99 % after 100 cycles at 60 °C. This system provides a feasible strategy for the development of efficient all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries.
