In the pursuit of enhancing the energy density of lithium-ion batteries, cathode prelithiation emerges as a pivotal approach, introducing additional irreversible active lithium ions to augment performance. Li 5 FeO 4 (LFO) stands out as an excellent option, boasting an impressive theoretical specific capacity and the additional advantages of cost-effectiveness in raw materials and low preparation cost. However, the impact of extra lithium incorporations on compositional changes at the electrode-electrolyte interface as well as on cell stability has impeded further researches. Herein, a Mn doping strategy is proposed and predicted by first-principles calculations to synthesize partially Mn-substituted Li 5.125 Fe 0.875 Mn 0.125 O 4 (LFMO). And the prelithiation with LFMO improved the interfacial composition of LiFePO 4 (LFP) batteries compared to LFO, achieving a charging capacity of 213 mAh∙g −1 in the first cycle at 0.05 C. The subsequent treatment demonstrated superior cycling stability, maintaining a discharge specific capacity as high as 155.3 mAh∙g −1 after 100 cycles at 0.2 C, and exhibiting a higher capacity retention in the full cell. These discoveries could contribute to enhancing the regulation of battery interface during the utilization of LFO, potentially promoting the development of cathode lithium additives.

Li-rich Mn-based materials, as high-energy-density and low-cost cathode materials for Li-ion batteries, suffer severe irreversible voltage fading and capacity loss during cycling, associated with the instability of crystal structure at high voltage, which greatly reduces the specific energy density after cycling and thus impedes their commercialization. Here, we introduce a new strategy to mitigate voltage fading and improve the cycling performance of Li-rich Mn-based cathode materials by simply introducing MgSO4 in the cathode during its preparation process. The results show that cycling stability and voltage fading of corresponding batteries were dramatically improved due to the high Li+ retention at the initial charge process and the stable cathode electrolyte interface (CEI) layer. After 100 cycles at 1C, the average discharge voltage decay is only 0.115 V (1.15 mV per cycle), with a high voltage retention of 96.7%, and the capacity remains at 91.5% after 300 cycles at 1C.

Potassium-ion batteries (KIBs) are regarded as potentially promising large-scale energy storage (EES) systems due to the close redox potential to lithium, the rich reserve and low cost of potassium resources. Nevertheless, the larger ionic radius of K-ion makes cathode materials for KIBs be a difficult issue. Herein, we construct Mn-based layered oxide (K 0.32 MnO 2 ) microsphere , self-assembled by ultrathin nanosheets , as potential cathode electrode for nonaqueous KIBs, which delivers a reversible discharge capacity of 95.1 mAh·g −1 at 10 mA g −1 . It is demonstrated that K 0.32 MnO 2 undergoes a simple solid solution reaction mechanism for K-ions deintercalation/intercalation during the initial charge-discharge process, which is not like complex multiple processes accompanied by phase transition for Mn-based layered oxide particles . Ex situ measurements reveal that K 0.32 MnO 2 nanosheets can provide outstanding morphology and structure stability, as well as fast electrochemical kinetics upon cycling, thus high rate capacity, improved cycling lifetime and voltage stability at low and high rates can be obtained. We also verify the practical feasibility of K-ion full cell with commercial super P carbon black anode. This novel work illuminates the electrochemical mechanism for K-ions storage in depth, which may push the study on layered oxide cathodes and accelerate the development of KIBs.

All inorganic lead halide cesium perovskite quantum dots (QDs) have attracted much attention due to their excellent luminescence properties, but further development is restricted by their stability and the existence of toxic element lead. In this paper, F/Mn-doped CsPb ( Br / Cl ) 3 QDs glass was prepared by melt quenching and heat treatment, with reduced Pb content effectively. The result shows that the spectrum of the QD glass is adjustable between 450 nm and 515.4 nm by changing the feeding ratio of Mn-Pb ion and heat treatment temperature. Moreover, the indraught of Mn 2 + effectively improves the PLQY of CsPb ( Br / Cl ) 3 QDs glass and serves as a red-emitting. The prepared composites not only maintain good fluorescence characteristics, but also greatly improve the stability of QDs. And successfully coupled with blue LED chips to synthesize WLED, Under 20 mA current, the color coordinate is (0.3446, 0.3389).

Layered P-type structures are integral to most competitive cathodes for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, the performance of P2-type cobalt-based layered materials is unsatisfactory owing to a low initial discharge capacity caused by Na deficiency. Here, Mn-doped Na x CoO 2 with a P3 structure is synthesized by using a modified solvent-thermal method with calcination . A structural analysis shows that partial Mn doping can effectively control P3 phase formation and increase d -layer spacing, thereby improving the diffusion of Na + . In addition, enhanced electrochemical performance is observed in optimized P3-type Na 0.26 Co 0.48 Mn 0.52 O 2 (NCMO-1), which exhibits a reversible specific capacity of 64 mAh g −1 at 3 A g −1 and a good capacity retention of 58% after 500 cycles. Furthermore, the Na-ion full cell constructed with an NCMO-1 cathode and a hard carbon anode yields a competitive energy density of 175.9 Wh kg −1 at 0.4 A g −1 with excellent cycle stability. Thus, this work provides a new viewpoint on the development of P3 structural materials with higher electrochemical performance for SIBs.

Cations substitutions are known to make much significant contribution on achieving the high-quality kesterite Cu 2 ZnSn(S,Se) 4 thin films . And the optimal ratios of Mn, Ni and Co substitutions are reported to be ~0.05, belong to the low doping to reduce their defect density , which looks like to some extent the effect of Na doping. In this study, learning the research experience of alkali metal doping, we introduced the extra trace Mn 2+ ion into the precursor solution without affecting the compositions of other elements (i.e. Cu, Zn, and Sn), and the effect of trace addition on properties of the absorber layer was also studied. It was discovered that crystalline, electrical properties, and hole carrier concentration of Cu 2 ZnSn(S,Se) 4 thin films increased with an increase of Mn incorporation, and the best doping ratio of Mn/(Cu + Zn + Sn) was considered to be 0.03. In addition, the effect of extra trace Mn-doping on the film thickness and elemental compositions of Cu 2 ZnSn(S,Se) 4 absorber layer were studied in detail.

Manganese-contained Prussian blue analogues (Mn-PBAs) have a rigid and open 3D framework and adjustable redox potential , coupled with nontoxic nature, they could be effectively applied in various medicinal and biomedical fields. In this study, we reported the nanozyme activity of Mn-PBA nanoparticles . It was found that Mn-PBA nanoparticles possess peroxidase (POD)-, urate oxidase (UOD)- and catalase (CAT)-like enzymes, and this multi-enzyme activity is pH-switchable. The working mechanism of Mn-PBA nanoparticles mimicking peroxidase to oxidize 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) was pursued. In this process, Mn-PBA nanoparticles accelerate the decomposition of H 2 O 2 into •OH, so that •OH catalyzes the oxidation of TMB. Based on the color reaction and the cascade reaction , we constructed a platform that utilizes Mn-PBA nanoparticles to detect alcohol concentration. This platform has a wide detection range and high detection accuracy, as well as excellent detection specificity. For example, 25 μM-2.5 mM concentration of alcohol can be measured accurately with a good linearity overall, and the limit of detection of the alcohol concentration can reach low to 3.17 μM. These studies prove that the application of Mn-PBA nanoparticles in biomedicine and detection has bright prospects.

Compared with natural enzymes, nanozymes have advantages such as high stability, low cost, and a broad application prospect. However, due to the low catalytic activity of conventional nanozymes, synthesizing nanozymes with excellent enzyme-like activity will be long-term work. Herein, we synthesized single-atom nanozymes centered on Mn with N, P, and S doped (Mn-SAzyme) with enhanced peroxidase-like (POD-like) activity. We found that the presence of the Mn metal center significantly increased the POD-like activity of the nanozyme, exhibiting catalytic properties consistent with Michaelis–Menten kinetics. The POD-like activity was measured to be 17.48 U/mg, which was higher than that of the sample without the metal center. Using methylene blue (MB) as the organic dye model, the degradation efficiency of Mn-SAzyme could reach 90.1% within 300 min at pH 6.5, within the H2O2 concentration of 0.1 M and 25 mg/L of nanozyme dosage. Free radical quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance tests showed that •O2– and •OH were the key to degrading organic dyes. This work aims to explore more methods for synthesizing highly active nanozymes and successfully applying the synthesized nanozymes to the degradation of organic dyes.

Recently, green synthetic technology has attracted much attention due to its low cost, waste-reuse and environmental friendliness. In this study, reduced graphene oxide/manganese nanoparticles hybrids (rGO/Mn NPs) were successfully synthesized utilizing green tea extract by one-step method. The rGO/Mn NPs were characterized by SEM-EDS, XRD , Raman, FTIR and BET, and the results indicate oxygen-containing functional groups in GO were effectively removed. Also, manganese nanoparticles (Mn NPs) were uniformly decorated on the rGO surface, and rGO/Mn NPs hybrids exhibited a lamellar sandwich structure, which was improve the specific surface area and provide more adsorption sites. The biomolecules in tea extract were further identified by GC–MS analysis, where showed that 1,2,3-trichlorophenol, caffeine and antioxidant were involved to the biosynthesis. Furthermore, the rGO/Mn NPs were used to simultaneously remove oxytetracycline/tetracycline (OTC/TC) with more than 90% of the removal efficiency, demonstrating that rGO/Mn NPs have a potential for treating antibiotic wastewater.

As Gd-based contrast agents suffer from the risk of causing nephrogenic systemic fibrosis, less toxic contrast agents are urgently needed in contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (CE-MRI) of kidney injury. Herein, we develop a non-invasive diagnosis method for acute kidney injury using CE-MRI based on manganese-doped carbon dots (Mn-CDs). The synthesized Mn-CDs possess an ultrasmall size of 5 nm, good biocompatibility, and a high T1 relaxation rate (10.8 mM−1 s−1), which can produce effective positive enhancement in the kidneys and clearly show the fine structures of the kidneys including the cortex, outer medulla, and inner medulla. In an acute kidney injury model, Mn-CDs-based CE-MRI can not only accurately and intuitively reveal the site of kidney injury consistent with the pathological analysis, but also reflect the functional changes in the injured kidney. Collectively, our study provides a new strategy for the non-invasive diagnosis of acute kidney injury using CE-MRI based on Mn-CDs.

Detection and control of nitrite are major concerns in recent years for ensuring food and environmental safety. In this study, Mn, N co-doped Co-Carbons (CoMnN-Cs) were synthesized by calcination of bimetallic Co-Mn zeolite-imidazolate framework (CoMnZIF-67) materials at different temperatures (600–900 °C) in nitrogen atmosphere. Many characterizations, such as scanning electron microscope (SEM), elemental mapping, and, N 2 adsorption–desorption were performed to analyze the morphology, structure, and composition of the CoMnN-Cs. SEM revealed the generation of rich carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Mn-doping was obtained, which could be seen from the elemental mapping. The characterization also revealed that the pyrolysis temperature has an important effect to catalytic activities. From obtained results, it was found that the CoMnN-Cs prepared at 800 °C (CoMnN-Cs-800), showed better detection performance compared with CoMnN-Cs developed at other temperatures. As a result, the CoMnN-Cs-800-based sensor manifested an extended linear range (from 0.2 to 7000 μM), a low detection limit of 0.16 μM, and high sensitivity. Meanwhile, the developed sensor exhibited good selectivity, reproducibility, and long-term stability. Moreover, the sensor achieved satisfactory recoveries for the quantification of nitrite in tap water and sausage samples. This study implies CoMnN-Cs-800 is a promising material for the measurement of nitrite. Graphical abstract

Designing single-atom catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) are fashionable but challenging to boost the zinc-air battery performance. Significantly enhanced ORR activity by manganese (Mn) single-atom catalysts can be achieved by accurately regulating the coordination number of isolated Mn atoms. Theoretical calculations indicate that the single Mn-N 5 sites possess lower free energy barrier and higher oxygen adsorption performance than single Mn-N 4 sites to accelerate the ORR kinetics. Target to it, here we synthesize an atomically dispersed Mn-N 5 catalyst by precisely axial coordination of pyridinic-N doped into two-dimensional (2D) porous nanocarbon sheets (∼3.56 nm thickness), which reveals outstanding catalytic activity and ultrahigh stability for the ORR in zinc-air battery owing to the inhomogeneous charge distribution of Mn-N 5 sites compared to the conventional single-site Mn-N 4 catalyst and Pt/C. This work gives a new strategy for in situ regulating the electronic structure of metal single-atoms and further promoting the overall ORR performance in energy systems.
