    查看更多>>摘要:Electrochemical nitrate reduction reaction(NITRR)is regarded as a"two birds-one stone"method for the treatment of nitrate contaminant in polluted water and the synthesis of valuable ammonia,which is re-tarded by the lack of highly reactive and selective electrocatalysts.Herein,for the first time,nickel foam supported Co4N was designed as a high-performance NITRR catalyst by an in-situ nonmetal leaching-induced strategy.At the optimal potential,the Co4N/NF catalyst achieves ultra-high Faraday efficiency and NH3 selectivity of 95.4%and 99.4%,respectively.Ex situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy(XAS),together with other experiments powerfully reveal that the nitrogen vacancies produced by nitrogen leaching are stable and play a key role in boosting nitrate reduction to ammonia.Theoretical calculations confirm that Co4N with abundant nitrogen vacancies can optimize the adsorption energies of NO3-and intermediates,lower the free energy(ΔG)of the potential-determining step(*NH3 to NH3)and inhibit the formation of N-containing byproducts.In addition,we also conclude that the nitrogen vacancies can stabilize the adsorbed hydrogen,making H2 quite difficult to produce,and lowering ΔG from*NO to*NOH,which facilitates the selective reduction of nitrate.This study reveals significant insights about the in-situ non-metal leaching to enhance the NITRR activity.

    查看更多>>摘要:Owing to the large exciton binding energy(>100 meV)of most organic materials,the process of exciton dissociation into free electrons and holes is seriously hindered,which plays a key role in the photocat-alytic system.In this study,a series of chalcogen(S,Se)-substituted mesoporous covalent organic frame-works(COFs)have been synthesized for enhanced photocatalytic organic transformations.Photoelectro-chemical measurements indicate that the introduction of semi-metallic Se atom and the enlargement of conjugation degree can not only reduce the exciton binding energy accelerating the charge separation,but also reduce the band gap of COFs.As a result,the COF-NUST-36 with the lowest exciton binding energy(39.5 meV)shows the highest photocatalytic performance for selective oxidation of amines(up to 98%Conv.and 97.5%Sel.).This work provides a feasible method for designing COFs with high photocatalytic activity by adjusting exciton binding energy.

    查看更多>>摘要:Stimuli-responsive smart materials exhibit reverse chemical/physical changes in response to external stimuli and research on stimuli-responsive smart materials with self-powered properties is still un-cultivated ground.Here,we report perovskite crystalline self-powered multiple stimuli-responsive ma-terials triggered by chemical and thermal stimuli.[HMEP]PbI3·(H2O)(1;HMEP is a hydroxytris(1-methylethyl)phosphorus cation)crystallizes in a chiral space group P21 at 293 K and has the piezoelec-tric reaction(d33=10 pC/N and output voltage=1V)of self-powered modes,this value is larger than the value of 3 pC/N for the classical piezoelectric material ZnO.Piezoelectric materials can generate en-ergy due to mechanical deformation,and using thermal heating to lose water,[HMEP]PbI3(2)can be obtained.2 crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric space group,undergoes two reversible phase transi-tions at 243/255K and 315/348 K,and shows second harmonic generation switching.Interestingly,2 can return to the hydrated form 1 after absorbing water.This work will lay the foundation for self-powered stimuli-responsive compounds and contribute to the construction of novel organic-inorganic hybrid ma-terials with second harmonic generation switching.

    Copper-induced formation of heterostructured Co3O4/CuO hollow nanospheres towards greatly enhanced lithium storage performance

    查看更多>>摘要:We report a facile template-free fabrication of heterostructured Co3O4/CuO hollow nanospheres us-ing pre-synthesized Co/Cu-glycerate as conformal precursor.The introduction of copper nitrate in the solvothermal reaction system of glycerol/isopropanol/cobalt nitrate readily induces the conversion from solid Co-glycerate to hollow Co/Cu-glycerate nanospheres,and the effect of the Co/Cu atomic ratio on the structure evolution of the metal glycerates as well as their corresponding oxides were investigated.When examined as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries,the well-defined Co3O4/CuO hollow nanospheres with Co/Cu molar ratio of 2.0 demonstrate excellent lithium storage performance,delivering a high re-versible capacity of 930 mAh/g after 300 cycles at a current density of 0.5 A/g and a stable capacity of 650 mAh/g after 500 cycles even at a higher current density of 2.0 A/g,which are much better than their counterparts of bare CuO and Co3O4.The enhanced lithium storage performance can be attributed to the synergistic effect of the CuO and Co3O4 heterostructure with hollow spherical morphology,which greatly enhances the charge/electrolyte transfer and effectively buffers the volume changes upon lithia-tion/delithiation cycling.

    查看更多>>摘要:Achieving high activity and durability for the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)with an ultra-low amount of platinum is significant to promote the widespread application of proton exchange membrane fuel cells(PEMFCs).Here we report a new ultrathin(~1 nm)ternary PtNiGa alloy nanowires(PtNiGa NWs)elec-trocatalyst,in which the presence of gallium(Ga)enhances the oxidation resistance of platinum(Pt)and nickel(Ni)and suppresses the dissolution of Ni.The mass and specific activities of PtNiGa NWs are about 11.2 and 7.6 times higher than those of commercial Pt/C catalysts for ORR.Moreover,the mass activity of PtNiGa/C NWs nanocatalyst decreased only by 12.8%and largely retained its electrochemical surface area(ECSA)after 10,000 potential cycles,compared with 38%loss of ECSA for commercial Pt/C catalyst.There-fore,this work provides a general guideline for preparing ternary alloy electrocatalysts and enhancing the activity and stability of the cathode ORR reaction of PEMFCs.

    Synergy of phosphorus vacancies and build-in electric field into NiCo/NiCoP Mott-Schottky integrated electrode for enhanced water splitting performance

    查看更多>>摘要:Vacancy engineering and Mott-Schottky heterostructure can accelerate charge transfer,regulate adsorp-tion energy of reaction intermediates,and provide additional active sites,which are regarded as valid means for improving catalytic activity.However,the underlying mechanism of synergistic regulation of interfacial charge transfer and optimization of electrocatalytic activity by combining vacancy and Mott-Schottky junction remains unclear.Herein,the growth of a bifunctional NiCo/NiCoP Mott-Schottky elec-trode with abundant phosphorus vacancies on foam nickel(NF)has been synthesized through continuous phosphating and reduction processes.The obtained NiCo/NiCoP heterojunctions show remarkable OER and HER activities,and the overpotentials for OER and HER are as low as 117 and 60 mV at 10mA/cm2 in 1 mol/L KOH,respectively.Moreover,as both the cathode and anode of overall water splitting,the voltage of the bifunctional NiCo/NiCoP electrocatalyst is 1.44 V at 10mA/cm2,which are far exceeding the bench-mark commercial electrodes.DFT theoretical calculation results confirm that the phosphorus vacancies and build-in electric field can effectively accelerate ion and electron transfer between NiCo alloy and NiCoP semiconductor,tailor the electronic structure of the metal centers and lower the Gibbs free energy of the intermediates.Furthermore,the unique self-supported integrated structure is beneficial to facili-tate the exposure of the active site,avoid catalyst shedding,thus improving the activity and structural stability of NiCo/NiCoP.This study provides an avenue for the controllable synthesis and performance optimization of Mott-Schottky electrocatalysts.

    查看更多>>摘要:Modulating surface charge redistribution based on interface and defect engineering has been considered as a resultful means to boost electrocatalytic activity.However,the mechanism of synergistic regulation of heterojunction and vacancy defects remains unclear.Herein,a Vs-CoP-CoS2/C n-n heterojunction with sulfur vacancies is successfully constructed,which manifests superior electrocatalytic activity for oxy-gen evolution,as demonstrated by a low overpotential of 170 mV to reach 10mA/cm2.The experimental results and density functional theory calculations testify that the outstanding OER performance of Vs-CoP-CoS2/C heterojunction is owed to the synergistic effect of sulfur vacancies and built-in electric field at n-n heterogeneous interface,which accelerates the electron transfer,induces the charge redistribu-tion,and regulates the adsorption energy of active intermediates during the reaction.This study affords a promising means to regulate the electrocatalytic performance by the construction of heterogeneous inter-faces and defects,and in-depth explores the synergistic mechanisms of n-n heterojunction and vacancies.
