Abstract Silicon has been regarded as an attractive high‐capacity anode material for next‐generation lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs). However, Si anodes suffer from huge volume variation during cycling, which poses a critical challenge stable battery operation. Compared with Si, suboxide (SiO x ) is one of the most promising candidates high‐energy‐density LIBs because its alleviated swelling and highly cycling performance. Whereas, poor electronic conductivity low (initial) Coulombic efficiency...

Abstract Rechargeable aqueous zinc‐ion batteries (ZIBs) have attracted extensive interest owing to their low cost and high safety. Herein, oxygen‐defective potassium vanadate/amorphous carbon nanoribbons (C‐KVO|O d ) are successfully synthesized through a one‐step solid‐state sintering process as high‐performance cathode material for ZIBs. This unique 3D interconnected network structure can not only act continuous conductive path but also decrease aggregation provide more adsorption sites...

CO2 electroreduction to high-energy-density C2+ products is highly attractive, whereas the selectivity under industrial current densities still unsatisfying. Here, an anti-swelling anion exchange ionomer (AEI) was first proposed optimize local environment for promoting industrial-current-density CO2-to-C2+ electroreduction. Taking AEI-modified oxide-derived Cu nanosheets as example, in situ Raman spectroscopy and contact angle measurements revealed that OH--accumulated -N(CH3)3+ groups...

The huge challenge for CH4 photooxidation into CH3OH lies in the activation of inert C-H bond and inhibition overoxidation. Herein, we design two-dimensional in-plane Z-scheme heterostructures composed two different metal oxides, with efforts to polarize symmetrical molecules strengthen O-H CH3OH. As a prototype, first fabricate ZnO/Fe2O3 porous nanosheets, where high-resolution transmission electron microscopy situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy affirm their heterostructure. In Fourier...
