The strategic integration of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with MXenes presents a promising avenue to overcome charge separation bottlenecks in photocatalysis. This study constructs a hierarchical S-scheme heterojunction by in-situ growing ultrafine Zinc–Tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin (Cobalt-incorporated) Zn-TCPP(Co) MOF nanoparticles (15 nm) on two-dimensional functionalized MXene nanosheets. This unique “particle-on-lamella” architecture is engineered with molecular bridges, establishing a chemically bonded interface via C–Ti–O and N–Ti bonds that facilitate rapid charge transfer. The optimized heterostructure exhibits a narrow bandgap of 1.95 eV, a significantly prolonged charge carrier lifetime of 35.5 ns, and a high photocurrent density of 1.7 µA cm − 2 . By leveraging synergistic S-scheme charge separation, MXene’s metallic conductivity, and molecular single-atom Co sites, the composite achieves an exceptional hydrogen evolution rate of 24.3 mmol g − 1 h − 1 with an apparent quantum efficiency of 10.2% at 420 nm—representing a sixfold enhancement over pristine Zn-TCPP(Co). This performance surpasses many recently reported MOF- and MXene-based photocatalysts. Combined density functional theory calculations and experimental analyses confirm the critical role of the internal electric field in driving the S-scheme mechanism, which effectively preserves strong redox potentials. This work provides a definitive blueprint for high-performance photocatalytic systems through molecular-level interfacial engineering.

Developing synthetic strategies for high-quality metal-zeolite composites is critical for achieving advanced catalytic performances. One major challenge lies in addressing the rate mismatch between rapid metal deposition and slow zeolite crystallization, which leads to the segregation of large metal particles. Herein, we propose a universal strategy via quaternary ammonium alkali–metallic acid (QAMA) pairs for fabricating highly dispersed metal@zeolite materials with nearly 100% metal (Ru, Ir, Pd, Pt, and Zn) utilization. Using tetrapropylammonium hydroxide (TPAOH) as both a structural-directing agent and basic medium, the interaction of TPA+ with acidic metal precursors forms the “QAMA” pairs, which inhibit the precipitation of metal precursors and guide their dispersion into the 10-membered ring channels of MFI topology. Furthermore, the appropriate Si–OH groups on the silicalite-1 (S-1) seeds surface anchor the “QAMA” pairs and thus assist in the subnanometer PtZn particle dispersion. A series of PtZn@S-1 catalysts exhibited outstanding catalytic activity (14.1 molC2H4·gPt–1·h–1 at 24 h–1 weight hourly space velocity (WHSV)) and stability (Kd = 0.0004 h–1) in ethane dehydrogenation (EDH), particularly at relatively low temperature (550 °C) with pure ethane feed.

The pressing demand for environmental and health safeguarding has spurred intense enthusiasm among researchers to delve into metal oxide semiconductors (MOSs) based gas sensors. Particularly, the accurate detection of trace hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), which has drawn growing attention, has become a focal point. Herein, a molybdenum (Mo) doping strategy was presented to enhance the H₂S-sensitive properties of In₂O₃ nanomaterials to detect the presence of 1 ppm H₂S at comparatively lower temperatures. The Mo-doped In₂O₃ cubic nanoparticles (Mo-In₂O₃ CNPs) were synthesized through a hydrothermal route using In(OH) 3 as a precursor. When used as a sensitive material for the detection of H₂S, the Mo–In₂O₃ CNPs have shown some impressive improvements compared to pure In₂O₃ counterparts, including a reduction in working temperature (240 °C vs 300 °C), an increase in sensitivity (18.46 vs 11.34 for 20 ppm H₂S), a better selectivity (6.2 vs 2.84 times to ethanol), and a lower limit of detection (0.79 vs 0.47 ppm). Even to 1 ppm H₂S, the Mo-In₂O₃ sensor can give a response of 2.18, signifying its application feasibility in detecting trace amounts of H₂S. The multiple sensitization effects and their potential mechanism of Mo-In₂O₃ CNPs were discussed in detail.

Clean and sustainable energy conversion technology is a key contemporary scientific topic, and photocatalytic hydrogen production offers a new way to address the energy crisis. Here, based on the synergistic strategy of vacancy engineering and S-scheme heterostructure construction, a bifunctional photocatalyst of MoS 2 /ZnIn 2 S 4 -Vs (MoS 2 /ZIS-Vs) with sulfur vacancies (Vs) was developed by one-pot hydrothermal method. The best sample’s hydrogen production efficiency was 75.34 mmol·g −1 ·h −1 , which is 21 times higher than that of unmodified ZIS (3.42 mmol·g −1 ·h −1 ). Meanwhile, under air atmospheric conditions, its H 2 O 2 yield is 1126.66 μmol·g −1 ·h −1 , which is approximately 1.92 times that of ZIS (587.20 μmol·g −1 ·h −1 ). Under oxygen atmosphere conditions, this rises to 2144.84 μmol·g −1 ·h −1 , which is approximately twice the amount in an air atmosphere. Multiple characterizations show MoS 2 /ZIS-Vs’s vacancy engineering and heterostructure adjust ZIS’s band structure, enhance light absorption, and boost charge separation/transfer, with good stability. The DFT calculations show that MoS 2 /ZIS-Vs has an extremely low Gibbs free energy (−0.03 eV). This indicates that the synergistic action of the S-scheme heterojunction and sulfur vacancies significantly reduces the reaction barrier, thereby improving hydrogen and H 2 O 2 production efficiency. The research findings show that it has important application value in the field of solar energy conversion.

The excellent adsorption potential of poly (ionic liquid)s was utilized in amino-functionalized poly (ionic liquid)s (PVABn) materials constructed for the efficient adsorption of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). 1-Vinyl-3-(3-aminopropyl)-imidazolium bromide was synthesized in a quaternization reaction using 1-vinylimidazole and 3-bromopropylamine hydrobromide as raw materials. Four PVABn adsorbents (PVABn-2, PVABn-3, PVABn-4, and PVABn-5) with micro-mesoporous structures were prepared by polymerization with various concentrations of divinylbenzene cross-linker (molar ratios 2:5, 3:5, 4:5, and 5:5, respectively). Preliminary static adsorption experiments with PVABn-x were conducted for five volatile organic compounds (VOCs): chloroform, toluene, diethyl ether, acetone, and acetaldehyde. The resulting demonstrated that PVABn-x exhibited significantly higher adsorption capacity for acetaldehyde than for the other VOCs and materials hosted many chemically active sites, which provided substantial adsorption capacity for acetaldehyde gas. PVABn-4 showed the greatest capacity of 310.8 mg/g, thus overcoming the limitation of insufficient specific surface area. Kinetic and isotherm studies showed that adsorption conformed to the Bangham kinetic model and the Freundlich isotherm model, indicating that it was mainly driven by physical processes. Cyclic adsorption on PVABn-4 was investigated using high-temperature nitrogen purge desorption. After five adsorption–desorption cycles, adsorption had decreased to 288.9 mg/g, which is >90% of the initial value and therefore indicates excellent stability and renewability. This work offers an effective design strategy for high-performance, reusable PIL-based adsorbents, with great promise for VOCs capture and environmental remediation.

Activating the inert basal plane of MoS 2 is considered to be an efficient strategy to enhance the HER activity of MoS 2 . Herein, the adjacent S sites in the basal plane were activated by doping cu into MoS 2 nanosheets (cu-MoS 2 ). The density functional theory (DFT) calculation and experimental results show that the electronic structure of S sites adjacent to cu was adjusted. Furthermore, the ∆GH* of adjacent S sites around cu in the basal plane is closer to zero, indicating that the adsorption of H on MoS 2 was also optimized. Benefiting from the activation of adjacent S sites around cu in the basal plane, the obtained cu-MoS 2 nanosheets exhibit a small overpotential of 172 mV to achieve 10 mA cm −2 in acid media with a low Tafel slope of 49 mV decade −1 . This strategy, which involves doping-triggered activation of adjacent inert active sites, can be expanded to other two-dimensional materials for boosting electrocatalytic activity

In this study, Bi 2 WO 6 /BiOBr S-scheme heterojunction composites were synthesized via a one-step solvothermal method. The experimental results demonstrate that the Bi 2 WO 6 /BiOBr composites exhibit a significant redshift in the light absorption edge and a reduction in bandgap compared with that of individual Bi 2 WO 6 and BiOBr. Meanwhile, the separation and transfer of photogenerated carriers were accelerated in Bi 2 WO 6 /BiOBr composites. In the photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline, the best composite displayed the highest photocatalytic activity, achieving a degradation efficiency of 91.3% after 60 min of light irradiation. Moreover, it maintained good stability even after four cycles. The enhancement in photocatalytic activity is primarily attributed to the formation of the S-scheme heterojunction and the strengthened interfacial interactions.

In recent years, Ag-In-Ga-S (AIGS) quantum dots (QDs) have received widespread attention as non-toxic and environmentally friendly QDs. However, the low photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) restricts the further application of AIGS QDs in optoelectronic devices. Here, we constructed quinary Ag-In-Zn-Ga-S (AIZGS) QDs with outstandingly high PLQY of 92.1% by doping Zn into AIGS QDs via an economical and environment-friendly hydrothermal method. The synergistic action of the internal doped Zn providing radiative recombination channels and the surface doped Zn passivating the non-radiative recombination defects leads to enhanced PLQY of QDs. The corresponding QDs backlight films fabricated based on AIZGS QDs and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) also show a high PLQY of 82.7%. The improved PLQY of AIZGS QDs is comparable to other toxic metal-containing QDs in the same spectrum. Furthermore, the PL peak wavelength of the QDs can be tuned from 545 nm to 616 nm by varying the Ag/In ratio. The realization of high PLQY in aqueous AIZGS QDs and its backlight films contributes to the application in the field of eco-friendly backlight display devices.

Due to their high reactivity and theoretical capacity, chalcogen elements have been favored and applied in many battery studies. However, the high surface charge density and high solubility of these elements as electrode materials have hindered their deeper exploration due to the shuttle effect. In this article, organic structural triphenylphosphine is used as a molecular main chain structure, and chalcogen elements O, S, and Se are introduced to combine with P as active sites. This approach not only takes advantage of the beneficial effects of the aromatic ring on the physical and chemical properties of the chalcogen element but also allows for the optimization of its advantages. By utilizing Triphenylphosphine selenide (TP-Se) as the cathode material in aluminum-ion batteries(AIBs), a high-performance Al-organic battery was fabricated, which exhibited a high initial capacity of 180.6 mAh g −1 and stable cycling for up to 1000 cycles. Based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations, TP-Se exhibits a smaller energy gap, which renders it favorable for chemical reactions. Moreover, the calculated results suggest that TP-Se tends to undergo redox reactions with AlCl 2 + . The molecular structure of triphenylphosphine and its combination with Se offers an enticing pathway for designing cathode materials in aluminum-organic batteries.

Antimony (Sb) is a competitive candidate for lithium ion batteries (LIBs) as anode material because of its high theoretical discharge capacity (660 mAh/g). However, it remains a challenge caused by the volume change in the process of charge and discharge, which would damage the Sb anode that lead to poor rate performance and low cycle stability. Herein, we report the synthesis of Sb@S–N–C nanocomposite as the anode material to solve the problem. First, SbSI nanowires with diameter of ∼10 nm were synthesized. Then the SbSI nanowires were coated with polypyrrole (PPy) to form SbSI@PPy core-shell nanowires. By thermal reduction of SbSI@PPy, Sb@S–N–C nanocomposite was formed. Using the Sb@S–N–C nanocomposite as the anode material, a capacity of 536 mAh/g was obtained in 100 cycles at 0.5 A/g. Excitingly, it also exhibited superior reversible and long-cycle non-decay stability with the capacity of 342 mAh/g in 2000 cycles at a high current density of 1A/g.

Constructing S-scheme heterojunctions is an effective strategy to enhance charge separation efficiency. In this study, for the first time, boron subphthalocyanine bromide (SubPc-Br) was formed by self-assembly on the surface of layer BiOI to form an S-scheme heterojunction (SubPc-Br/BiOI) through halogen bonding and π–π stacking interactions. Experimental results demonstrate that the SubPc-Br/BiOI composite enhances tetracycline removal efficiency by a factor of 1.6 compared to pure BiOI. Notably, after five cycles, the composite still maintains a high tetracycline removal rate, which is 2.62 times that of pure BiOI. DFT and TDDFT theoretical calculations, combined with synchrotron X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) under simultaneous illumination, indicate that the internal electric field generated between the [Bi 2 O 2 ] layer and the SubPc-Br macrocycle plays a dominant role in charge separation, while interfacial electron transfer contributes to the constitution of the S-scheme heterojunction. Moreover, the combination of molecular dynamics simulations (MD), Fukui function calculations, and HPLC-MS detection reveals the mechanism of pollutant degradation. This study introduces an innovative strategy for the construction of BiOI-based S-scheme heterojunctions. Constructing S-scheme heterojunctions is an effective strategy to enhance charge separation efficiency.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are promising materials for wastewater purification owing to their wide photoresponse range, abundant active sites, adjustable porosity, and efficient electron transfer. In this work, a novel S-scheme heterojunction was constructed by coupling bismuth-rich bismuth iodide oxide Bi 4 O 5 I 2 with functional β-ketoenamine COFs (TATP) via in-situ solvothermal reaction. The optimized composite 2-TPBI exhibits enhanced photocatalytic activity, achieving 88.55 % TC removal within 120 min under visible light irradiation. This performance enhancement is attributed to improved light absorption and efficient spatial separation of photogenerated charge carriers by the S-scheme heterojunction. This work opened up a new avenue for designing high-performance heterostructured photocatalysts through an inorganic/organic coupling strategy for efficient wastewater remediation.
