Abstract Rechargeable aqueous zinc‐iodine batteries (ZIBs) are considered a promising newly‐developing energy‐storage system, but the corrosion and dendritic growth occurring on anode seriously hinder their future application. Here, mechanism of polyiodide is revealed in detail, showing that it can spontaneously react with zinc cause rapid battery failure. To address this issue, sulfonate‐rich ion‐exchange layer (SC‐PSS) purposely constructed to modulate transport reaction chemistry Zn 2+ at...

The electrocatalytic nitrate (NO3-) reduction reaction (eNITRR) is a promising method for ammonia synthesis. However, its efficacy currently limited due to poor selectivity, largely caused by the inherent complexity of multiple-electron processes involved. To address these issues, oxygen-vacancy-rich LaFe0.9M0.1O3-δ (M = Co, Ni, and Cu) perovskite submicrofibers have been designed from starting material LaFeO3-δ (LF) B-site substitution strategy used as eNITRR electrocatalyst. Consequently,...

Electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2 RR) to produce valuable chemicals is a promising pathway alleviate the energy crisis and global warming issues. However, simultaneously achieving high Faradaic efficiency (FE) current densities of CO2 RR in wide potential range remains as huge challenge for practical implements. Herein, we demonstrate that incorporating bismuth-based (BH) catalysts with L-histidine, common amino acid molecule proteins, an effective strategy overcome...

Chiral metal halide perovskites with intrinsic asymmetric structures have drawn increased research interest for the application of second-order nonlinear optics (NLO). However, designing chiral features a large NLO coefficient, high laser-induced damage thresholds (LDT), and environmental friendliness remains major challenge. Herein, we synthesized two hybrid bismuth halides: (R/S-MBA)4Bi2Br10 spiral structure microplates, templated by (R/S)-methylbenzylamine (R/S-MBA). The as-grown...

Abstract The oligomers of carbon suboxide, known as red carbon, exhibit a highly conjugated structure and semiconducting properties. Upon mild heat treatment, it transforms into carbonaceous framework rich in oxygen surface terminations, called oxocarbon. In this study, the abundant functionalities are harnessed anchors to create oxocarbon‐supported nanohybrid electrocatalysts. Starting with single atomic Cu (II) strongly coordinated atoms on Fehling reaction leads formation 2 O clusters....
