Abstract Chlorine evolution reaction (CER) is a critical anode in chlor-alkali electrolysis. Although precious metal-based mixed metal oxides (MMOs) have been widely used as CER catalysts, they suffer from the concomitant generation of oxygen during CER. Herein, we demonstrate that atomically dispersed Pt−N 4 sites doped on carbon nanotube (Pt 1 /CNT) can catalyse with excellent activity and selectivity. The Pt /CNT catalyst shows superior to nanoparticle-based commercial Ru/Ir-based MMO...
Abstract Understanding the local cation order in crystal structure and its correlation with electrochemical performances has advanced development of high‐energy Mn‐rich cathode materials for Li‐ion batteries, notably Li‐ layered cathodes (LMR, e.g., Li 1.2 Ni 0.13 Mn 0.54 Co O 2 ) that are considered as nanocomposite C2/m MnO 3 ‐type medium‐range (MRO). Moreover, Li‐transport rate high‐capacity Mn‐based disordered rock‐salt (DRX) (e.g., 0.4 Ti is found to be influenced by short‐range...

Abstract Ordered mesoporous carbons (OMCs) have attracted considerable interest owing to their broad utility. OMCs reported date comprise amorphous rod‐like or tubular graphitic frameworks, which exhibit tradeoffs between conductivity and surface area. Here we report ordered constructed with frameworks (OMGCs) tunable pore sizes mesostructures via dual templating, using silica molybdenum carbide as exo ‐ endo ‐templates, respectively. OMGCs simultaneously realize high electrical large area...

The proposed Dual-SRAM cell structure with coupling capacitors enables multiply and accumulate (MAC) operation variable-precision signed weights. Unlike prior IMC macros that only support binary networks or digitally compute weighted sums MAC multi-bit weights, the implements analog energy-efficient bit-scalable operations novel series-coupled merging scheme.

Highly luminescent quantum dots with a reverse type-I core/shell/shell structure consisting of ZnSe/InP/ZnS are developed. Their emission color can be tuned from violet to red by controlling the InP shell thickness. The final layer ZnS improves yield.
Abstract Hydrogen flow during low pressure chemical vapor deposition had significant effect not only on the physical properties but also electrical of graphene. Nucleation and grain growth graphene increased at higher hydrogen flows. And, more oxygen-related functional groups like amorphous oxidized carbon that probably contributed to defects or contamination remained surface H 2 conditions. It is believed flow, those oxygen other oxidizing impurities make films p-doped result in decreasing...
Abstract Conducting polymer‐based organic electrochemical capacitor materials have attracted attention because of their highly conductive nature and reversible redox reactions on the surface electrodes.

Deactivated current collector surface for reliable seawater battery.
It is widely known that semiconductors such as ZnO and ZnS tend to be unstable in water-splitting photocatalysis due self-corrosion by the photogenerated charges under prolonged light irradiation.

During photodeposition, both electrons holes generated surface ZnO/ZnS contributed formation Rh0 metal...
