文摘Strong coupling among spontaneous structural symmetric breaking,magnetism,and metallicity in an intrinsic polar magnetic metal can give rise to novel physical phenomena and holds great promise for applications in spintronics.Here,we elucidate the mechanism of magnetic polarity in the recently discovered polar metal Sr_(3)Co_(2)O_(7).Our first-principles calculations reveal that both the spontaneous polar displacements and the metallicity originate from charge disproportionation of Co ions.This is characterized by an inverted ligand-field splitting of the Co t_(2g) orbitals at one site,while the metallic behavior is preserved by the t_(2g) orbitals at both sites.Charge disproportionation,which originates from the on-site Hubbard U interaction,stabilizes the asymmetric phase.We thus propose that in related transition metal oxides,charge disproportionation within specific orbitals can concurrently drive metallicity and polarity,enabling strong coupling between these properties.More remarkably,this mechanism allows for the coexistence of magnetism,as evidenced in Sr_(3)Co_(2)O_(7).Our findings highlight a promising avenue for realizing polar magnetic metals and provide a new design principle for exploring multifunctional materials.

文摘The advancement of aqueous zinc metal batteries(ZMBs)is constrained by intrinsic interfacial issues in aqueous electrolyte systems.Here,using numerical simulation,we decipher the multi-scale causes of interfacial instability,elucidating the synergistic effect of macroscopic ineffective regions and microscopic passivation.Based on the analysis,we develop an electrolyte-triggered interphase construction strategy to resolve the interfacial failure.This strategy couples the in situ formation of hydrogel interphase on both the anode and cathode with the electrolyte filling process,thereby(1)facilitating contact between electrodes and the separator;(2)promoting anode reversibility through inducing a bilayer SEI that enhances Zn^(2+)desolvation kinetics and blocks electron tunneling;(3)ensuring long-term cathode cycling stability via restricting the irreversible dissolution of MnO_(2)and side-reactions.The resultant Zn metal anode exhibited a near-unity Coulombic efficiency(99.5%)for Zn plating/stripping at an extremely low current density of 0.1 mA cm^(-2)and the Zn/MnO_(2)full cell sustained 2000 full-duty-cycles with an exceptionally low decay rate of 0.0051%per-cycle.This work unlocks an alternative angle for promoting practical ZMB s toward more sustainable energy storage systems.

文摘Aqueous zinc ion batteries(AZIBs)are considered promising candidates owing to their inherent safety and low cost.However,the conventional glass fiber(GF)separator used in AZIBs suffers from poor physicochemical properties,leading to uncontrolled zinc(Zn)dendrite formation and undesirable side reactions.To address these limitations and enhance the electrochemical performance of AZIBs,a precisely designed functional separator is developed by incorporating UiO-66-(COOH)_(2)into a poly(vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF)framework(U-PVDF)via a direct in situ growth method.This approach enables uniform distribution of UiO-66-(COOH)_(2)both on the surface and within the PVDF backbone,without increasing separator thickness.Owing to the strong interaction between Zn^(2+)and the abundant carboxyl groups in UiO-66-(COOH)_(2),the U-PVDF separator regulates the Zn^(2+)solvation structure toward a contact ion pair-dominated structure by reducing coordinated water molecules,which effectively mitigates water-induced parasitic reactions and promotes compact Zn deposition.Consequently,a Zn/Zn symmetric cell employing the U-PVDF separator demonstrates superior cycling stability over 1500 cycles without internal short-circuiting at a current density of 6 mA cm^(−2)and an areal capacity of 2 mAh cm^(−2).Moreover,Zn/NaV_(3)O_(8)·xH_(2)O(NVO)cell with the U-PVDF separator exhibits markedly improved cyclability and rate performance compared with those using conventional GF separator.

文摘Vitamin D deficiency(VDD)represents a significant nutritional concern among children and adolescents.The estimated prevalence of VDD in China is 46.8%in this population^([1]).VDD during childhood and adolescence has been associated with the onset of various conditions,including acute respiratory infections,asthma,atopic dermatitis,and food allergies^([2]).Multiple factors,including age,sun exposure,adiposity,and genetics,influence vitamin D levels^([2,3]).Increasing attention has been directed toward understanding the environmental determinants that may influence vitamin D status.Given the potential of metallic pollutants to disrupt endocrine function and their ubiquity in the environment,investigating the effects of metal exposure on human vitamin D status,particularly in vulnerable populations,is imperative.

文摘Composite solid-state electrolytes incorporating metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)demonstrate tremendous potential for ameliorating Li^(+)conduction in lithium metal batteries.However,their practical application is hindered by low ionic co nductivity and unstable Li^(+)transport at the electrode interfaces.To overcome these challenges,a previously unreported family of indium based MOFs(In-BDC-F_(x),x=0,4,6)with tunable fluorine content was synthesized and integrated into PVDF-HFP matrices to construct highperformance quasi-solid-state electrolytes.By systematically modulating linker fluorination,a bifunctional enhancement mechanism is revealed:fluorinated indium centers simultaneously suppress polymer crystallinity and establish preferential Li^(+)conduction pathways.Remarkably,In-BDC-F_(6) manifests exceptional synergistic interactions between-CF_(3) functionalities and indium coordination sites,amplifying Lewis acidity to facilitate LiTFSI dissociation and TFSI-immobilization,culminating in homogeneous LiF-enriched solid electrolyte interphases.The optimized electrolyte demonstrates compelling electrochemical performance:ionic conductivity of 9.68×10^(-4) S cm^(-1),Li^(+)transference number of 0.70,and electrochemical stability window of 4.96 V.Li‖Li symmetric cell demonstrated a critical current density of 3.5 mA cm^(-2) and stable plating/stripping for over 1000 h at 0.2 mA cm^(-2),while LiFePO_(4)‖Li cells retain96.66%capacity after 1300 cycles at 10C,underscoring the transformative potential of fluorinated MOF architectures in fast-charging solid-state batteries.

文摘The metal‐reduction‐induced dechlorination coupling(MR-DC)strategy enables the first successful synthesis of an all‐inorganic crosslinked phosphazene network(aPN)from hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene(HCCP)under mild reaction conditions.Using Cu as a model,the resulting Cu-aPN(copper‐embedded all‐inorganic phosphazene network)retains the intrinsic N_(3)P_(3)backbone and exhibits an amorphous structure where Cu species are uniformly anchored at dense P/N coordination sites of the network.Time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry(TOF‐SIMS)and X‐ray diffraction(XRD)reveal a gradual CuCl‐to‐CuO phase conversion during ammonia treatment,which effectively ensures the structural stability of the phosphazene framework.In 1 M KOH,Cu-aPN delivers an overpotential of 280 mV at 10 mA cm^(−2)and a Tafel slope of 48 mV dec^(−1),markedly outperforming Ga-aPN.In situ Raman and density functional theory(DFT)analyses indicate stronger Cu-P/N coordination coupling that lowers the*OH formation barrier(0.39 vs.0.88 eV for Ga).This MR-DC route furnishes a general and versatile pathway for constructing metal‐embedded all‐inorganic phosphazene frameworks with tunable coordination environments for advanced electrocatalytic applications.

文摘The recovery of precious metals(PMs)from secondary resources is critical for addressing global supply-chain vulnerabilities and sustainable resource utilization.This review systematically examines the transformative potential of metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)as next-generation adsorbents for PM recovery,focusing on their synthesis,functionalization,and multiscale adsorption mechanisms.We critically analyze conventional pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical methods and highlight their limitations in terms of selectivity,energy consumption,and secondary pollution.In contrast,MOFs offer tunable porosity,abundant active sites,and tunable surface chemistry,enabling efficient PM capture via synergistic physical and chemical adsorption.Advanced modification techniques,including direct synthesis and post-synthetic modification,are reviewed to propose strategies for enhancing the adsorption kinetics and selectivity for Au,Ag,Pt,and Pd.Key structure-property relationships are established through multiscale characterization and thermodynamic models,revealing the critical roles of hierarchical porosity,soft donor atoms,and framework stability.Industrial challenges,such as aqueous stability and scalability,are addressed via Zr-O bond strengthening,hydrophobic functionalization,and support immobilization.This study consolidates the experimental and theoretical advances in MOF-based PM recovery and provides a roadmap for translating laboratory innovations into practical applications within the circular-economy framework.

文摘The thermal decomposition characteristic of ammonium perchlorate(AP)represents a critical factor in determining the performance of solid propellants,which has aroused significant interest on the structure and performance improvement of kinds of catalysts.In this study,bimetallic metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),such as CuCo-BTC(BTC=1,3,5-Benzenetricarboxylic acid,H_(3)BTC),CuNi-BTC,and CoNi-BTC,were synthesized by solvothermal(ST)and spray-drying(SD)methods,and then calcined at 400℃for 2 h to form metal oxides.The catalysts as well as their catalytic effects for AP decomposition were characterized by FTIR,XRD,SEM,XPS,TG,DSC,TG-IR,EIS,CV,and LSV.It was found that the rapid coordination of metal ions with ligands during spray drying may lead to catalytic structural defects,promoting the exposure of reactive active sites and increasing the catalytic active region.The results showed that the addition of 2 wt%binary transition metal oxides(BTMOs)as catalysts significantly reduced the high-temperature decomposition(HTD)temperature of AP and enhanced its heat release.Of particular significance is the observation that SD-CoNiO_(x),prepared by spray-drying,reduced the decomposition temperature of AP from 413.26℃(pure AP)to 306℃and enhanced the heat release from 256.79 J/g(pure AP)to 1496.82 J/g,while concomitantly reducing the activation energy by 42%.By analysing the gaseous products during the decomposition of AP+SD-CoNiO_(x)and AP+ST-CoNiO_(x),it was found that SD-CoNiO_(x)could significantly increase the content of high-valent nitrogen oxides during the AP decomposition reaction,which indicates that the BTMOs prepared by spray-drying in the reaction system are more conducive to accelerating the electron transfer in the thermal decomposition process of AP,and can provide a high concentration of reactive oxygen species that oxidize AP to high-valent nitrogen oxide-containing compounds.The present study shows that the structure selectivity of the spray-drying technique influences surfactant molecular arrangement on catalyst surfaces,resulting in their ability to promote higher electron transfer during the catalytic process.Therefore,BTMOs prepared by spray drying method have higher potential for application.

文摘The practical deployment of lithium metal batteries remains severely constrained,especially under elevated temperatures.Although metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)improve the thermal stability of liquid electrolytes by capturing them in well-ordered sub-nanopores,interparticle voids between MOF particles readily absorb liquid electrolyte,obscuring our understanding of the intrinsic role of nanopores in directing Li^(+)transport.To address this challenge,we introduce a one-dimensional(1D)MOF model architecture that eliminates interparticle effects and enables direct observation of Li^(+)solvation and de-solvation dynamics.Comparative studies of 1D HKUST-1 and ZIF-8 uncover distinct transport behaviors,supported by both experimental measurements and neural network potential-based molecular dynamics simulations.Building on these insights,we construct a hierarchical core-shell MOF architecture by integrating ZIF-8(core)and HKUST-1(shell)onto a hybrid fiber scaffold.This design harnesses the complementary strengths of both MOFs to achieve continuous ion pathways,directional Li^(+)conduction,and improved thermal and electrochemical resilience.

文摘Metal-support interaction(MSI) is crucial for fine-tuning the active-site structure of supported catalysts and enhancing performance.Here,we present an ammonia-directed reactive gas-metal-support interaction(RGMSI),in which NH_(3) reduces ZnO and assembles an anti-perovskite Ni_(3)ZnN structure with interstitial nitrogen,significantly boosting hydrogenation efficiency.Nitrogen incorporation expands the lattice parameter,increasing the(111) lattice spacing from 2.04Å in Ni to 2.18Å in Ni_(3)ZnN,with an extended Ni-Ni interatomic distance from 2.49Å to 2.65Å.Additionally,Ni-N coordination shifts the d-band center downward and induces electron deficiency in Ni via charge transfer.These modifications optimize reactant adsorption on the tailored Ni_(3)ZnN structure compared to Ni,leading to a remarkable increase in 1,3-butadiene hydrogenation selectivity from 30.0 % to 92.9 %,along with an enhanced TOF from 0.067 s^(-1) to 0.079 s^(-1).These findings highlight RGMSI as a versatile and effective strategy for designing supported metal catalysts,offering new insights into selective hydrogenation catalysis.

文摘Transition metals(TMs)are widely recognized for their valuable catalytic properties in various fields,from environmental protection to industrial application[1].Recently,there has been increasing interest in catalysts containing late TMs,particularly noble metals such as osmium,iridium and platinum.For instance,some studies have demonstrated that the Os atom serves as metal centers that coordinates alkanes,enabling the activation of C-H bonds in the first step[2].Characterization of the geometric and electronic structures of TM catalysts is essential for exploring the structure-reactivity relationship and elucidating complex mechanisms.
文摘Metal halides have attracted worldwide attention as exceptional optoelectronic materials.Over the past decade,research on metal halides has yielded remarkable progress,and their color-conversion applications have shown considerable promise for commercialization.With the reporting of self-trapped exciton(STE)emission in perovskites,the application of metal halides as broadband emitting materials in the lighting field has gained increas-ing interest.Herein,we provide a comprehensive review of metal halide STE emitters,especially for lighting applications.We begin with highlighting the ideal spectral characteristics and corresponding performance metrics for lighting.This is followed by a systematic summary of the mechanisms,optimization strategies,and recent advances of STE emission in metal halides.Finally,we outline the major challenges and prospective trends for metal halide STE emitters.This review aims to offer valuable insights into metal halide STE emitters and their lighting applications for facilitating the future commercialization.

文摘Temperature-programmed desorption(TPD)is a fundamental technique in surface science and heterogeneous catalysis for characterizing adsorption behavior,and for extracting key parameters such as adsorption energy.However,the majority of existing TPD data is accessible in the form of published images,which lacks structured and quantitative datasets.This constrains its utility for rigorous quantitative analysis and computational modelling.Using carbon monoxide(CO)which is a widely adopted probe molecule,a curated and standardized dataset of CO-TPD is constructed,encompassing 14 transition-metal single-crystal surfaces,including copper(Cu)and ruthenium(Ru).By systematically extracting numerical data points from published spectra and applying normalization,essential spectral features such as peak shape are fully preserved.The dataset also documents relevant experimental parameters,including heating rates,and was developed using a standardized protocol for data collection and quality control.This resource serves as both a reference library to support the deconvolution of TPD spectra from complex catalysts and an experimental benchmark for calibrating parameters in theoretical models.By providing a reliable and accessible data function,this work advances the microscopic understanding and the rational design of catalyst active centers.
文摘39 soil samples surrounding a lead-zinc mining area in Guangxi were collected,and the contents of Pb,Hg,Cd,Cr,As,Cu,Zn,and Ni were determined to investigate the pollution characteristics and sources of heavy metals.ArcGIS inverse distance weight difference method was used to analyze the characteristics of pollution distribution,and single-factor pollution index,Nemerow comprehensive pollution index,ground accumulation index,and potential ecological risk index were selected to evaluate the characteristics of heavy metal pollution.Based on correlation analysis,the absolute principal component-multiple linear regression(APCS-MLR)and positive definite matrix factorization(PMF)models were used to analyze the sources of soil heavy metals.The results showed that the average concentrations of all eight heavy metals exceeded both national and Guangxi soil background values.Hg,Cd,and Zn exhibited high variation(greater than 0.5),indicating significant external disturbances,and their spatial distribution was closely related to mining activity locations.The single-factor pollution index evaluation indicated varying degrees of pollution risk for Cd,Zn,and As,with Cd and Zn being the most severe pollutants,as 69.23%and 30.77%of the samples fell into the moderate pollution or higher category.The geoaccumulation index analysis ranked the mean pollution levels of the eight elements as follows:Zn>Cd>Ni>Pb>Cu>Cr>Hg>As,with Cd and Zn showing the most severe contamination,and 51.28%of the samples exhibiting moderate or higher pollution levels.The Nemerow comprehensive pollution index evaluation showed that 74.35%of soil samples were classified as moderate to heavy pollution.The potential ecological risk index assessment indicated significant ecological risks posed by Cd and Zn,with 82.05%and 5.12%of the samples classified as causing strong to extreme ecological risks,respectively.The source apportionment analysis revealed minor differences between the two models.The APCS-MLR model identified three pollution sources and their contribution rates:anthropogenic mining sources(31.13%),parent material sources(40.38%),and unidentified sources(28.49%).The PMF model identified three pollution sources with contribution rates of anthropogenic mining sources(26.10%),parent material sources(46.96%),and a combined traffic and agricultural source(26.61%).Pb,Hg,Cd,and Zn mainly originated from mining activities;Cr,As,and Ni were primarily derived from the parent material,while Cu was predominantly attributed to traffic and agricultural sources.These findings provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of heavy metal pollution in mining areas.
