文摘The development of catalysts with highly efficient oxygen evolution performance and low-Ir loading is key to scaling up the application of proton exchange membrane(PEM)water electrolysis technology.Here,an Ir-skin catalyst(Ir@KM)is realized on a potassium-manganese oxide(K_(0.25)MnO_(x)(KM))using an ion-exchange method.The Ir-skin over the prepared Ir@KM has a low Ir-Ir atomic distance,endowing an energetically favorable oxide path mechanism to allow a low theoretical overpotential of 0.13 V.Ir@KM offers a low overpotential of~280 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm^(-2)and provides a high mass activity of up to 18,500 A at a cell voltage of 1.8 V in PEM,which is 17.6 times higher than that of IrO_(2),demonstrating a significant advantage in reducing the cost of the membrane electrode.The presented Ir-skin concept represents a promising strategy to fabricate low-Ir catalyst with high activity and durability for practical applications of PEM.

文摘Ice premelting,the formation of a quasi-liquid layer on ice surfaces below the bulk melting point,plays a crucial role in various processes,ranging from glacier dynamics to ice friction and surface chemistry.Despite intensive research,the microscopic structure of the premelting layer and underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood.In this work,we studied the temperature-and pressure-dependent structural disordering of crystalline Ih(0001)surface near the onset of premelting on the atomic scale by qPlus-based cryogenic atomic force microscopy.The linear correlation between the density of planar local structure(PLS)and the fraction of disordered surface region showed that the PLS mediated early-stage premelting by serving as a metastable seeding state.Notably,the associated surface disordering is cooperative,extending over an area of roughly~2 nm^(2) around a PLS.We further found a striking structural similarity between the kinetic-trapped regime below the surface crystallization temperature(T_(c))and the premelting-dominated regime above T_(c).As the deposition pressure increased,the characteristic temperature dependence was preserved,with only T_(c) shifting to higher values due to kinetic effects.Finally,we proposed a surface phase diagram for ice Ih(0001)based on our experimental observations.

文摘The dissolvable polysulfides and sluggish Li_2S conversion kinetics are acknowledged as two significant challenges in the application lithium-sulfur(Li-S)batteries.Herein,we introduce a dual-doping strategy to modulate the electronic structure of MoS_(2),thereby obtaining a multifunctional catalyst that serves as an efficient sulfur host.The W/V dual single-atomdoped MoS_(2)grown on carbon nanofibers(CMWVS)demonstrates a strong adsorption ability for lithium polysulfides,suppressing the shuttle effects.Additionally,the doping process also results in the phase transition from 2H-MoS_(2)to 1T-MoS_(2)and generates sufficient edge sulfur atoms,promoting the charge/electron transfer and enriching the reaction sites.All these merits contribute to the superior conversion reaction kinetics,leading to the outstanding Li-S battery performance.When fabricated as cathodes by compositing with sulfur,the CMWVS/S cathode delivers a high capacity of 1481.7 mAh g^(-1)at 0.1 C(1 C=1672 mAh g^(-1))and maintains 816.3 m Ah g^(-1)after 1000 cycles at 1.0 C,indicating outstanding cycling stability.Even under a high sulfur loading of 7.9 mg cm^(-2)and lean electrolyte conditions(E/S ratio of 9.0μL mg^(-1)),the cathode achieves a high areal capacity of 8.2 m Ah cm^(-2),showing great promise for practical Li-S battery applications.This work broadens the scope of doping strategies in transition-metal dichalcogenides by tailoring their electronic structures,providing insightful direction for the rational development of high-efficiency electrocatalysts for advanced Li-S battery applications.

文摘A visible-light-induced synergistic hydrogen atom transfer(HAT)and proton transfer(PT)catalysis was developed for the defluorinative carboxylation of α-CF_(2)R-substituted alkenes.This system affords a variety of γ,γ-difluoro-and γ-monofluoro-vinylacetic acids without stepwise acidification,exhibiting good functional group tolerance,broad scope,and facile scalability.Mechanism studies support that thiol plays the role of the hydrogen relay,which s a hydrogen atom through HAT and then outputs a proton via PT.This strategy also takes full advantage of formate for photocatalytic carboxylation reaction in a step-and atomeconomical way.

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High-pressure electrides,characterized by the presence of interstitial quasi-atoms(ISQs),possess unique electronic structures and physical properties,such as diverse dimensions of electride states exhibiting different superconductivity,which has attracted significant attention.Here,we report a new electron-deficient type of electride Li_(4)Al and identify its phase transition progress with pressurization,where the internal driving force behind phase transitions,bonding characteristics,and superconducting behaviors have been revealed based on first-principles density functional theory.Through analysis of the bonding properties of electride Li_(4)Al,we demonstrate that the ISQs exhibiting increasingly covalent characteristics between Al ions play a critical role in driving the phase transition.Our electron–phonon coupling calculations indicate that all phases exhibit superconducting behaviors.Importantly,we prove that the ISQs behave as free electrons and demonstrate that the factor governing T_(c) is primarily derived from Li-p-hybridized electronic states with ISQ compositions.These electronic states are scattered by low-frequency phonons arising from mixed vibrations of Li and Al affected by ISQs to enhance electron–phonon coupling.Our study largely expands the research scope of electrides,provides new insight for understanding phase transitions,and elucidates the effects of ISQs on superconducting behavior.

文摘350 keV He^(+) ions were injected into laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)-processed 304L stainless steel and traditional rolled 304L stainless steel with a flux of 1×10^(17) ions/cm^(2) at room temperature,followed by annealing at 750℃ for 10,100,and 300 h,respectively.The results showed that material swelling due to helium bubble coarsening was almost not observed in either the LPBF or rolled samples after 10 h of annealing duration.Rapid coarsening and swelling of bubbles occurred in the rolled samples,but only moderate bubble growth occurred in the LPBF sample after annealing for 100 h.After annealing for 300 h,the helium bubbles in both samples tended to grow steadily.For 10 h of annealing,the irradiated samples were in a disequilibrium state,and the apparent activation energy(E^(act))calculated by the Arrhenius model determined that helium atoms tended to diffuse through the displacement mechanism,and helium bubbles grew under the migration and coalescence(MC)mechanism.With annealing times over 100 h,the high-density dislocations and nano-oxide particles in the LPBF sample still had a strong trapping effect on the movement and growth of helium bubbles.After annealing for 300 h,the cellular subgrains in the LPBF sample decomposed,and the nano-oxide particles had no trapping effect on the helium bubbles.At this time,the dislocation structure played a primary role in suppressing the growth of helium bubbles,and the radiation resistance of the LPBF sample remained superior to that of the rolled samples.

文摘Benzoic acid containing fluorine atom at ortho-,meta-,and para-position are employed as self-assembled monolayers to modify the buried interface in perovskite solar cells(PSCs).It is demonstrated that the position of fluorine atom influences the passivation effect and para-fluorinated one provided the most substantial performance enhancement mainly originating from ameliorated contact and energy band alignment between NiOx and perovskite,improved perovskite quality and defect healing.Resultantly,PSC with a power conversion efficiency of 24%can be achieved.Meanwhile,which can maintain 96.8%of the initial PCE after a 1000 h storage,presenting enhanced durability.This work highlights the critical role of molecular functionality and conformation in the buried interface modification of PSCs,providing valuable insights for future developments.

文摘The efficient storage and release of H_(2)are pivotal for the advancement of hydrogen energy technologies.Cyclohexane,as a promising liquid organic hydrogen carrier(LOHC),provides a safe and practical solution for H_(2)storage.However,the performance limitations of dehydrogenation catalysts have hindered the rapid development of LOHC technology.In this study,we successfully developed boron-modified Pt/ZrO_(2)catalysts,which exhibit exceptional catalytic performance in cyclohexane dehydrogenation.The optimal boron content is determined to be 0.5 wt.%,with the Pt/0.5B–ZrO_(2)catalyst achieving high turnover frequency(TOF)of 10,627.3 mol_(H_(2))·mol_(Pt)^(−1)·h^(−1)and benzene selectivity of 99%at 295°C.The catalyst also demonstrates H_(2)evolution rate of 908 mmol·g_(Pt)^(−1)·min^(−1)and low deactivation rate of 0.0043 h^(−1).Remarkably,the catalyst displays outstanding stability and regeneration performance,maintaining its activity without significant loss during a 60-h dehydrogenation reaction and retaining a cyclohexane conversion of 77.2%after 10 consecutive cycles.Comprehensive characterization techniques,including XPS,CO-FTIR,NH_(3)-TPD,H_(2)-TPD,Benzene-TPD,and Py-IR,reveals that boron modification reduces the electron density of Pt,generating abundant electron-deficient Pt atoms.These electron-deficient Pt atoms enhance H_(2)adsorption and accelerate benzene desorption,effectively preventing coke formation from deep benzene dehydrogenation,which is responsible for the high catalytic performance of the Pt/0.5B–ZrO_(2)catalyst.These findings offer a valuable strategy for optimizing dehydrogenation catalysts in LOHC technologies,addressing a critical bottleneck in the development of this essential energy storage solution.

文摘The single electron capture processes in Si^(3,4+)+He collisions have been investigated theoretically employing the two-center atomic orbital close-coupling method in the energy range 0.01-100 keV/u.Total and state-selective electron capture cross sections for the dominant and subdominant reaction channels are calculated and compared with the available experimental and theoretical data.For the total charge transfer cross sections,the present results show better agreements with the available experimental data than the other theoretical ones in the overlapping energy region for both collision systems.For the state-selective cross sections,the present results for 3s and 3p states are in general agreement with the previous MOCC results in the low energy region for both collision systems.Furthermore,the cross sections for electron captured to the 3d,4l and 5l(l=0,1,...,n-1)states of Si^(2+)and Si^(3+)ions are first provided in a broad energy region in our work.These results are useful for the investigations in astrophysics.The datasets presented in this paper,including the total and state-selective electron capture cross sections of Si^(3,4+)+He collisions in 0.01-100 ke V/u,are openly available at https://doi.org/10.57760/sciencedb.j00113.00257.
