The oxygen electrocatalytic activity of transition metal catalysts can be tuned by tailoring their microstructure to optimize electronic configuration. Here, a one-step Coordination-Selective Synthesis strategy is developed to integrate Co single-atom sites and Fe-based nanoparticles within the same matrix, enabling long-range electronic interactions that enhance Co-N 4 reactivity and improve oxygen reduction reaction performance. X-ray absorption spectroscopy confirmed that remote Fe-based nanoparticles modulate the electron distribution at Co-N 4 sites. Structural characterizations reveal that the optimal catalyst, Co 50% Fe 50% -NC, contains metallic Fe, Fe 3 O 4 , and Fe 4 N species. Electrochemical measurements show that it achieves onset and half-wave potentials of 0.984 and 0.927 V versus RHE, surpassing Co 100% -NC with only Co-N 4 sites. Additionally, it demonstrates efficient oxygen evolution reaction performance, achieving an overpotential of 298 mV at 20 mA cm −2 , comparable to RuO 2 . Density functional theory calculations reveal that Fe 4 N optimizes O-containing intermediate adsorption/desorption, lowering the theoretical overpotential. Zn-air batteries assembled with Co 50% Fe 50% -NC exhibited superior performance to Pt/C, highlighting its potential for bifunctional oxygen electrocatalysis. This study provides an approach for designing high-performance catalysts by utilizing synergistic interactions between atomic and nanoscale metal species.

High-efficiency oxygen reduction electrocatalysts is crucial for low-carbon development. Iron-nitrogen co-doped carbon materials (Fe-N-C) prepared from ZIF-8 are well recognized for their remarkable potential to enhance ORR reaction rates. However, the challenge of limited and singular active sites due to insufficient metal loading has impeded the progress of Fe-N-C-based materials. In this paper, the above-mentioned problems were alleviated by introducing a second transition metal (Co, Mn, Zr) to form a bimetallic catalyst with Fe. Carboxylates are also introduced for assistance to generate one-dimensionally entangled carbon nanotubes, then the material can perform charge transfer better. In the alkaline medium, the half-wave potential of FeCo-N-C-OAc synthesized with carboxylate added reached 0.907 V, FeMn-N-C-OAc was 0.893 V, and FeZr-N-C-OAc was 0.892 V, which was improved compared with the samples without carboxylate added. In the range of 100–1000 ppm oxygen concentration, the oxygen sensors based on three catalysts that with carboxylate added showed good linearity and high response currents, especially FeMn-N-C-OAc showed an average response time of 53 s and a relative current fluctuation of only 4 % after 28 days. When improving the performance of Fe-N-C-based catalysts used in coulometric electrolytic oxygen sensors, this work can be regarded as a new strategy.

Cu3P is a potential anode material for lithium-ion batteries with its comparable gravimetric capacity, but several times higher volumetric capacity (4732 mA h cm−3) than graphite. However, the cycling stability of Cu3P is poor at low discharge potentials and high current densities. In this work, Fe addition is employed as a simple strategy to modulate the composition and phase constitution of Cu3P nanopowders synthesized by wet mechanical alloying, and thereby to tune the electrochemical performance of the anode. The addition of Fe results in a composite constitute containing Cu3P as the major phase and some other minor phases including Cu, α-Fe and FeP, which are combinationally determined by X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and Mössbauer spectroscopy. Electrochemical tests reveal that both the cycling stability and the rate capability of the electrodes are improved by Fe addition. The Cu3P electrode with 10% Fe addition shows the best cell performance, with the capacity being remarkably improved by over 100%, from 82 mA h g−1 to 178 mA h g−1 after 50 cycles at 0.75C between 2.0 V and 0.5 V vs. Li/Li+. The improvement of the electrochemical performance is engendered by a synergetic effect of the microstructure change of the powders and the presence of Fe-related minor phases, leading to increased electronic conductivity as well as enhanced electrochemical reversibility of the electrode.

Structure designing and morphology control can lead to high performance pseudocapacitive materials for supercapacitors. In this work, we have designed interlinked multiphase Fe-doped MnO2 nanostructures (α-MnO2/R-MnO2/ε-MnO2) to enhance the electrochemical properties by a facile method. These hierarchical hollow microspheres assembled by interconnected nanoflakes, and with plenty of porous nanorods radiating from the spherical shells were hydrothermally obtained. The supercapacitor electrode prepared from the unique construction exhibits outstanding specific capacitance of 267.0 F g−1 even under a high mass loading (∼5 mg cm−2). Obviously improved performances compared to pure MnO2 are also demonstrated with a good rate capability, high energy density (1.30 mW h cm−3) and excellent cycling stability of 100% capacitance retention after 2000 cycles at 2 A g−1. The synergistic effects of alternative crystal structures, appropriate crystallinity and optimal morphology are identified to be responsible for the observations. This rational multiphase composite strategy provides a promising idea for materials scientists to design and prepare scalable electrode materials for energy storage devices.

Nowadays, simultaneous removal of organic pollutants and heavy metals from wastewater is still a complicated task with great challenge. Herein, a newly-designed Fe-g-C 3 N 4 /α-Fe 2 O 3 composite with an active N-Fe-O bridge was prepared by coupling Fe-doped g-C 3 N 4 (namely Fe-g-C 3 N 4 ) and α-Fe 2 O 3 . Interestingly, the combination of Fe-g-C 3 N 4 with α-Fe 2 O 3 broadened the light absorption region and restrained the photoinduced electron-hole pair recombination. Meanwhile, elaborate construction of N-Fe-O bridges based on coordination interaction can reduce electrochemical impedance and facilitate electron transfer, thereby prolonging the charge lifetime. As expected, the Fe-g-C 3 N 4 /α-Fe 2 O 3 composite displayed excellent photocatalytic performance in simultaneous removal of tetracycline (TC) and Cr(VI). More importantly, Fe-g-C 3 N 4 /α-Fe 2 O 3 -mediated electron transfer from TC to Cr(VI) also played an essential role on TC oxidation and Cr(VI) reduction under visible light. Both experimental analyses and theoretical calculations revealed that the migration route of photogenerated carriers followed a direct Z-scheme heterojunction mechanism under built-in electric field. The Fe-g-C 3 N 4 /α-Fe 2 O 3 composite with great stability also displayed promising practical application potential. In short, the current work not only provided a highly-efficient photocatalyst with N-Fe-O bridges but also shared new insights into the simultaneous removal of organic pollutants and heavy metals.

A S-scheme Fe/Fe 2 O 3 @CBO photocatalyst was synthesized via a grinding calcination method, proficiently degrading tetracycline via radicals and non-radical. The reaction rate of Fe/Fe 2 O 3 @CBO-20 was recovered to 0.0255 min −1 that is 4.3 and 7.3 times as many as pristine Fe/Fe 2 O 3 and CBO after introducing visible light at the degradation process. The characterization outcomes also bear out that the S-scheme heterojunction is formed by passivation layer Fe 2 O 3 and CBO, which enhances the visible light responsiveness of catalyst and promotes the separation and transfer of photogenerated electrons to generate h + and O 2 − . Meanwhile, the molecular oxygen is more easily activated to form H 2 O 2 due to the strong reduction potential of the CB (−1.21 eV), further to facilitate the transformation of O 2 − to 1 O 2 . And the carriers excited in CBO activate Cu + , forming a Cu/Fe dual-metal electron cycle. The generated Fe 2+ reacts with H 2 O 2 to establish photocatalysis-self-Fenton system to generate ·OH. Additionally, the high TC removal in simulated aquatic environment exhibit that the catalytic performance is slightly affected by practical wastewater and the cyclic experiment show the stability and practicality. In conclusion, innovatively employing Fe/Fe 2 O 3 for pollutant degradation via photocatalytic technology, this research paves a promising and efficacious pathway for the application of Fe/Fe 2 O 3 .

Nanoscale FeWO 4 /BiVO 4 heterojunctions were directly grown on the graphite fiber felt (GF) with good conductivity to construct a FeWO 4 /BiVO 4 @GF solar photo-Fenton like wastewater treatment system. The removal effect of COD from phenolic wastewater and the mechanism of synergistic improvement of wastewater treatment efficiency by this system were investigated. The FeWO 4 /BiVO 4 heterojunction prepared by hydrothermal method exhibited higher photoelectric conversion efficiency and solar light utilization rate, thus endowing FeWO 4 /BiVO 4 with excellent solar-Fenton like reaction activity.The photo-Fenton activity can be maintained well even within the pH range of 2–8. Loading FeWO 4 /BiVO 4 nano-heterojunction on GF helped to increase the contact area between Fenton reagents and wastewater, facilitate the electron transfer on the FeWO 4 /BiVO 4 heterojunction and enable the recovery and reuse of the Fenton reagents.Under solar light radiation, the COD removal efficiency of FeWO 4 /BiVO 4 @GF/H 2 O 2 system in phenolic wastewater was more than 92%. Even after five cycles, the system still exhibited excellent operation stability. FeWO 4 /BiVO 4 @GF promoted the conversion and cycling of Fe(III)/Fe(II) by accelerating the separation and transport of photogenerated electrons/holes and increasing the concentration of active species, thereby stimulating excellent solar photo-Fenton like activity.The results are significance to the development of green and efficient photo-Fenton process for advanced treatment of industrial wastewater.

Antibiotics have been extensively used in medicine and aquaculture, leading to severe environmental contamination. Among them, chlortetracycline (CTC) has attracted considerable attention due to its large consumption and high residual risk. MIL-125(Ti), as a representative titanium-based metal–organic framework, exhibits good structural stability and tunability; however, its intrinsically weak visible-light response and rapid charge recombination limit further photocatalytic applications. To improve its photocatalytic performance, MIL-125 was first synthesized via a hydrothermal method, and then Fe and S species were introduced through a combination of in situ coprecipitation and mild sulfuration, yielding an Fe/S-modified MIL-125 photocatalyst. The introduction of Na2S induced defect sites and coordinatively unsaturated centers on the MIL-125 surface, while the cooperative participation of Fe species further regulated the surface electronic structure and active-site distribution, thereby enhancing visible-light absorption and interfacial charge transfer. Under AM 1.5 irradiation, the optimized Fe/S-MIL-125 achieved a CTC degradation efficiency of 98.6% within 120 min at an initial concentration of 40 mg L−1. In addition, the material exhibited broad applicability toward multiple antibiotics, with degradation efficiencies exceeding 87% for ciprofloxacin (CIP) and clindamycin (CLI). Cycling tests demonstrated that the catalyst retained high activity after five successive runs, indicating excellent stability. Radical scavenging experiments and ESR analyses revealed that superoxide radicals (·O2−) were the dominant reactive species. Overall, the Fe/S-modified strategy significantly enhanced the photocatalytic performance of MIL-125 through defect engineering and interfacial charge regulation, offering a promising approach for the design of MOF-based materials for antibiotic removal.

A plasma-catalytic system coupled with floating electrode discharge with metal foam-supported catalysts was developed for efficient toluene degradation. The influences of different transition metal oxides (Co, Mn, Ce) loaded onto Fe foam (FF) substrates on the crystal structure, surface morphology and catalytic performance were systematically investigated. Catalysts were symmetrically placed on both sides of the floating electrode. Among the investigated metal oxides, Co was found to form a uniformly distributed CoFe 2 O 4 surface layer on the FF substrate, while Mn and Ce were heterogeneously dispersed as MnO 2 and CeO 2 , respectively. All metal-loaded catalysts enhanced the discharge power of the reactor, attributed to surface charge accumulation on metal oxides. The Co/FF catalyst exhibited the highest toluene degradation efficiency, CO 2 selectivity and O 3 decomposition capability. This plasma-Co/FF system significantly reduced the O 3 concentration from 112 ppm (plasma alone) to 26.2 ppm at a specific input energy (SIE) of 232 J/L. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggest that Co sites in CoFe 2 O 4 possess a lower O 3 adsorption energy and higher charge density potential to a higher oxygen vacancy formation tendency, promoting O 3 activation. This study provides an understanding of the mechanistic basis for the rational design of efficient plasma-catalytic systems for toluene removal.

Aiming at the problems of limited conductivity and poor stability of traditional ionic hydrogels, this study prepared polythiophene composite (PTh@Fe-BDA) as a conductive filler, and then designed poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) network, sodium poly(acrylic acid) (PAANa), and poly([2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride) (PDMC) polyelectrolyte network to construct dual network (DN) gels by introducing conductive fillers into the polymer matrix. When PTh@Fe-BDA was added in the amount of 0.9 g, the tensile strength of the conductive hydrogel was 0.825 MPa, the toughness was 0.0039 MJ/m 3 , and the electrical conductivity was 1155.556 mS/m. The hydrogel exhibited good adhesion and recovery after cycling tests. PVA/PAANa/PDMC/PTh@Fe-BDA conductive hydrogel strain sensing can respond to mechanical stimuli and generate accurate, stable and recoverable electrical signals, and can be used as a flexible wearable device for multiple monitoring strains and subtle movements in different body parts, and can also be used as a capacitive pen to fluently write and draw on the screen of a cell phone or tablet computer. This new multifunctional conductive hydrogel has a wide range of application prospects in electronic skin, motion monitoring and human–computer interaction.

Ferromagnetic polaron (FMP) coupling and antiferromagnetic polaron (AMP) coupling have been extensively studied in zero-dimensional and three-dimensional structures. However, studying their electronic structures and photophysical processes in layer structures still faces significant challenges. In this work, we synthesized minor and rich Fe ion-doped PA2CdCl4 layer structures by slow-cooling crystallization and adjusting the Fe ion concentration. In minor Fe ion-doped PA2CdCl4, the Fe–Fe ion pair easily replaces the Cd–Cd pairs in the corner-sharing octahedra layer to form a FMP and promote a red emission (618 nm) from localized exciton-magnetic polarons (LEMPs). In the rich Fe ion doping, AMPs can be easily formed when Fe ions obtain electrons from NH2 and convert into a low-spin state, coexisting with FMPs. The increasing number of AMPs promote the formation of a new Fe-aniline charge-transfer band; the co-work of AMPs and the Fe-aniline charge-transfer band result in a blue emission (466 nm). The result of the magnetic field-dependent photoluminescence (PL) measurement indicates that the population, energy and the spin direction of AMPs and FMPs can have a direct impact on the luminescence behavior of Fe ion-doped PA2CdCl4 layered structures. The density functional theory (DFT) calculation result indicates that Fe–Fe pairs under ferromagnetic (FM) coupling interact via dx2–y2 and dz2 orbitals. Fe–Fe pairs under antiferromagnetic (AFM) coupling on the dxy and dz2 orbitals. This work provides new insights into the varied magnetic polarons of layer structures and their effect on PL behavior.
