Oxygen vacancy is conducive to molecular oxygen adsorption and activation, it necessary estimate its contribution on catalysts, especially the doped system for volatile organic compound (VOC) oxidation. Herein, a series of Mn xZr1- xO2 catalysts with were prepared by partially substituting Zr4+ in zirconia low-valent manganese (Mn2+). Compared corresponding mechanically mixed samples (MB-x) without vacancy, exhibited better toluene conversion specific reaction rate, where differential values...
Abstract Dual‐atom site catalysts (DACs) have emerged as a new frontier in heterogeneous catalysis because the synergistic effect between adjacent metal atoms can promote their catalytic activity while maintaining advantages of single‐atom (SACs), like 100 % atomic utilization efficiency and excellent selectivity. Herein, supported Pd 2 DAC was synthesized used for electrochemical CO reduction reaction (CO RR) first time. The as‐obtained exhibited superior RR performance with 98.2 faradic at...
The electrochemical splitting of water into hydrogen and oxygen is considered one the most promising approaches to generate clean sustainable energy.

Abstract Nonprecious transition metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) are one of the most promising precursors for developing electrocatalysts with high porosity and structural rigidity. This study reports synthesis efficiency based on S‐doped NiFeP. MOF‐derived NiFeP structure is synthesized by a one‐step phosphorization process using MOFs as precursor, which more convenient environment friendly, also helps retain samples’ framework. The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) hydrogen (HER) performance...
The inorganic lead-free Cs2AgBiBr6 double perovskite structure is the promising development direction in solar cells (PSCs) to solve problem of instability APbX3 and lead toxicity.

Abstract Tetrahedral NiS 2 /NiSe heterocages with rich‐phase boundaries are synthesized through a simultaneous sulfuration/selenylation process using Ni‐based acetate hydroxide prisms as precursor. Such nanocage‐like heterostructure can expose more active sites, accelerate the mass transport of ions/gas, and optimize interfacial electronic structure, which shows significantly lower overpotential 290 mV at 20 mA cm −2 than those NiS/NiS NiSe counterparts. The experimental characterizations...
Abstract Metal Ru and vacancy engineering play an important role in oxygen evolution reaction (OER) hydrogen (HER). However, there are few reports targeted on electrocatalysts by simultaneously employing these two strategies. Herein, theoretical calculation firstly predicts that V S can regulate the adsorption energy of OER/HER intermediates for NiCo 2 4 electrocatalysts. Then, a facile solvothermal‐photochemical strategy is utilized to synthesis series samples: through filling...
The electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) on metal-free catalysts is an attractive alternative to the industrial Haber-Bosch process.
