Although the rechargeable lithium–sulfur battery system has attracted significant attention due to its high theoretical specific energy, implementation been impeded by multiple challenges, especially dissolution of intermediate lithium polysulfide (Li2Sn) species into electrolyte. Introducing anchoring materials, which can induce strong binding interaction with Li2Sn species, demonstrated as an effective way overcome this problem and achieve long-term cycling stability high-rate performance....
Increased consumption of whole grains has been associated with reduced risk developing major chronic diseases. These health benefits have attributed in part to their unique phytochemicals. Previous studies on black rice mainly focused anthocyanins. Little is known about the phytochemical profiles and antioxidant activities different varieties. The objective this study was determine activity bran samples from 12 diverse varieties rice. free, bound, total phenolic contents ranged 2086 7043,...
Electrochemical reduction of CO2 to multi-carbon fuels and chemical feedstocks is an appealing approach mitigate excessive emissions. However, the reported catalysts always show either a low Faradaic efficiency C2+ product or poor long-term stability. Herein, we report facile scalable anodic corrosion method synthesize oxygen-rich ultrathin CuO nanoplate arrays, which form Cu/Cu2O heterogeneous interfaces through self-evolution during electrocatalysis. The catalyst exhibits high C2H4 84.5%,...
Inorganic cesium lead halide perovskites with superb thermal stability show promise to fabricate long-term operational photovoltaic devices. However, the cubic phase (α) of CsPbI3 an appropriate band gap is unstable in air. We discover that highly stable α-CsPbI3 can be obtained dry air (temperature: 20–30 °C; humidity: 10–20%) by replacing PbI2 HPbI3 a one-step deposition solution. Furthermore, HPbI3-processed advantageously reduced from 1.72 1.68 eV due existence tensile lattice strain. By...
Abstract Dual‐atom catalysts have the potential to outperform well‐established single‐atom for electrochemical conversion of CO 2 . However, lack understanding regarding mechanism this enhanced catalytic process prevents rational design high‐performance catalysts. Herein, an obvious synergistic effect in atomically dispersed Ni–Zn bimetal sites is observed. In situ characterization combined with density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveals that heteronuclear coordination modifies...
Electrocatalysis has the potential to become a more sustainable approach generate hydrogen as clean energy source and chemical feedstock.
Abstract Designing highly active and bifunctional oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) evolution (OER) catalysts has attracted great interest toward metal–air batteries. Herein, an efficient solution to the search for MXene‐based is proposed by introducing non‐noble metals such as Fe/Co/Ni at surfaces. These results indicate that ultrahigh activities in Ni1/Ni2‐ Fe1/Ni2‐modified double‐atom (DACs) ORR/OER are better than those of well‐known unifunctional with low overpotentials, Pt(111) ORR IrO 2...
Rechargeable batteries based on lithium (sodium) metal anodes have been attracting increasing attention due to their high capacity and energy density, but the implementation of anode still faces many challenges, such as low Coulombic efficiency dendrites growth. Layered materials used experimentally protective films (PFs) address these issues. In this work, authors explore using first‐principles computations key factors that determine properties feasibility various 2D layered PFs, including...
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have attracted considerable interest due to their remarkable properties and potential applications for nanoelectronics, electrodes, energy storage devices, among others. However, many well-studied 2D lack appreciable conductivity tunable mechanical strength, limiting in flexible devices. Newly developed MXenes open up the opportunity design novel conductive electronic materials. Here, using density functional theory (DFT), we investigate systematically effects...
Among transition metal nitrides, tungsten nitrides possess unique and/or superior chemical, mechanical, and thermal properties. Preparation of these however, is challenging because the incorporation nitrogen into lattice thermodynamically unfavorable at atmospheric pressure. To date, most materials in W–N system are form thin films produced by nonequilibrium processes often poorly crystallized, which severely limits their use diverse technological applications. Here we report synthesis...
Using density functional theory, we show that the long-believed transition-metal tetraborides (TB(4)) of tungsten and molybdenum are in fact triborides (TB(3)). This finding is supported by thermodynamic, mechanical, phonon instabilities TB(4), it challenges previously proposed origin superhardness these compounds predictability generally used hardness model. Theoretical calculations for newly identified stable TB(3) structure correctly reproduce their structural mechanical properties, as...
