On the basis of EK, the optimal three-parameter（E14, E9, E7） QSAR model of W for 18 PPAD was constructed. The traditional correlation coefficient（R^2） and cross-validation correlation coefficient（Rcv^2） are 0.878 and 0.815, respectively. The result demonstrates that the model is highly reliable（from the point of view of statistics） and has good predictive ability by using R^2, Rcv^2, VIF, FIT, AIC and F tests. Form the three parameters of the model, it is known that the dominant influence factors of inhibited activity are the molecular structure fragments： =CH–（secondary carbon）, =C〈（tertiary carbon atom） in aromatic ring and –O–（phenol ether bond）. The results showed that the structure parameters E14, E9 and E7 have good rationality and efficiency for the W of phenyl-isopropyl-amine dope（PPAD） analogues. A BP-ANN with 3-3-1 architecture was generated by using three electrotopological state index descriptors（E14, E9, E7） appearing in the MLR model, the above descriptors were inputs and its output was action strength（W）. The nonlinear BP-ANN model has better predictive ability compared to the linear MLR model with R^2 and Rcv^2 of leave-one-out（LOO） to be 0.995 and 0.994, respectively. The regression method gave support to the neural network with physical explanation, which offers a more accurate model for QSAR. Those models can be used in the rational design of higher stimulating extent PPAD, which provide meaningful reference information to improve the detection methods of PPAD.展开更多

Electron. 4 277 (2021)], attracting significant attention. This "breakthrough" not only challenges the conventional characterization of TeO_(2) as an insulator but also conflicts with the anticipated difficulty in hole doping of TeO_(2) by established chemical trends. Notably, the reported Fermi level of 0.9 eV above the valence band maximum actually suggests that the material is an insulator, contradicting the high hole density obtained by Hall effect measurement. Furthermore, the detected residual Se and the possible reduced elemental Te in the 2D β-TeO_(2) samples introduces complexity, considering that elemental Se, Te, and Te_(1−x)Se_(x) themselves are high-mobility p-type semiconductors. Therefore, doubts regarding the true cause of the p-type conductivity observed in the 2D β-TeO_(2) samples arise. In this Letter, we employ density functional theory calculations to illustrate that TeO_(2), whether in its bulk forms of α-, β-, or γ-TeO_(2), or in the 2D β-TeO_(2) nanosheets, inherently exhibits insulating properties and poses challenges in carrier doping due to its shallow conduction band minimum and deep valence band maximum. Our findings shed light on the insulating properties and doping difficulty of TeO_(2), contrasting with the claimed p-type conductivity in the 2D β-TeO_(2) samples, prompting inquiries into the true origin of the p-type conductivity.展开更多

文摘Based on Hall et al. electrotopological state indices（EK） of atom types, two quantitative structure-activity relationship（QSAR） models were developed to estimate and predict the action strength（W） of D（OM）（dimethoxy-methyl-amphetamine） for 18 phenyl-isopropyl-amine dopes（PPAD） through linear method（multiple linear regression, MLR） and non-linear method（Back propagation artificial neural network, BP-ANN）. On the basis of EK, the optimal three-parameter（E14, E9, E7） QSAR model of W for 18 PPAD was constructed. The traditional correlation coefficient（R^2） and cross-validation correlation coefficient（Rcv^2） are 0.878 and 0.815, respectively. The result demonstrates that the model is highly reliable（from the point of view of statistics） and has good predictive ability by using R^2, Rcv^2, VIF, FIT, AIC and F tests. Form the three parameters of the model, it is known that the dominant influence factors of inhibited activity are the molecular structure fragments： =CH–（secondary carbon）, =C〈（tertiary carbon atom） in aromatic ring and –O–（phenol ether bond）. The results showed that the structure parameters E14, E9 and E7 have good rationality and efficiency for the W of phenyl-isopropyl-amine dope（PPAD） analogues. A BP-ANN with 3-3-1 architecture was generated by using three electrotopological state index descriptors（E14, E9, E7） appearing in the MLR model, the above descriptors were inputs and its output was action strength（W）. The nonlinear BP-ANN model has better predictive ability compared to the linear MLR model with R^2 and Rcv^2 of leave-one-out（LOO） to be 0.995 and 0.994, respectively. The regression method gave support to the neural network with physical explanation, which offers a more accurate model for QSAR.

文摘The outstanding performance of O3-type NaNi_(1/3)Fe_(1/3)Mn_(1/3)O_(2)(NFM111)at both high and low temperatures coupled with its impressive specific capacity makes it an excellent cathode material for sodium-ion batteries.However,its poor cycling,owing to highpressure phase transitions,is one of its disadvantages.In this study,Cu/Ti was introduced into NFM111 cathode material using a solidphase method.Through both theoretically and experimentally,this study found that Cu doping provides a higher redox potential in NFM111,improving its reversible capacity and charge compensation process.The introduction of Ti would enhance the cycling stability of the material,smooth its charge and discharge curves,and suppress its high-voltage phase transitions.Accordingly,the NaNi_(0.27)Fe_(0.28)Mn_(0.33)Cu_(0.05)Ti_(0.06)O_(2)sample used in the study exhibited a remarkable rate performance of 142.97 mAh·g^(-1)at 0.1 C(2.0-4.2 V)and an excellent capacity retention of 72.81%after 300 cycles at 1C(1C=150 mA·g^(-1)).

文摘This study focused on improving the cathode performance of Ba_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)Co_(0.85)Nb_(0.15)O_(3-δ)(BSCN)-based perovskite materials through molybdenum(Mo)doping.Pure BSCN and Mo-modified-BSCN—Ea_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)Co_(0.85)Nb_(0.1)Mo_(0.05)O_(3-δ)(B S CNM_(0.05)),Ba_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)Co_(0.85)Nb_(0.05)Mo_(0.1)O_(3-δ)(BSCNM_(0.1)),and Ba_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)Co_(0.85)Mo_(0.15)O_(3-δ)(BSCM)—with Mo doping contents of 5mol%,10mol%,and15mol%,respectively,were successfully prepared using the sol-gel method.The effects of Mo doping on the crystal structure,conductivity,thermal expansion coefficient,oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)activity,and electrochemical performance were systematically evaluated using X-ray diffraction analysis,thermally induced characterization,electrochemical impedance spectroscopy,and single-cell performance tests.The results revealed that Mo doping could improve the conductivity of the materials,suppress their thermal expansion effects,and significantly improve the electrochemical performance.Surface chemical state analysis using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed that 5mol%Mo doping could facilitate a high adsorbed oxygen concentration leading to enhanced ORR activity in the materials.Density functional theory calculations confirmed that Mo doping promoted the ORR activity in the materials.At an operating temperature of 600℃,the BSCNM_(0.05)cathode material exhibited significantly enhanced electrochemical impedance characteristics,with a reduced area specific resistance of 0.048Ω·cm~2,which was lower than that of the undoped BSCN matrix material by 32.39%.At the same operating temperature,an anode-supported single cell using a BSCNM_(0.05)cathode achieved a peak power density of 1477 mW·cm^(-2),which was 30.71%,56.30%,and 171.50%higher than those of BSCN,BSCNM_(0.1),and B SCM,respectively.The improved ORR activity and electrochemical performance of BSCNM_(0.05)indicate that it can be used as a cathode material in low-temperature solid oxide fuel cells.

文摘Solid oxide electrolysis cells(SOECs)can effectively convert CO_(2)into high value-added CO fuel.In this paper,Sc-doped Sr_(2)Fe_(1.5)Mo_(0.3)Sc_(0.2)O_(6−δ)(SFMSc)perovskite oxide material is synthesized via solid-phase method as the cathode for CO_(2)electrolysis by SOECs.XRD confirms that SFMSc exhibits a stable cubic phase crystal structure.The experimental results of TPD,TG,EPR,CO_(2)-TPD further demonstrate that Sc-doping increases the concentration of oxygen vacancy in the material and the chemical adsorption capacity of CO_(2)molecules.Electrochemical tests reveal that SFMSc single cell achieves a current density of 2.26 A/cm^(2) and a lower polarization impedance of 0.32Ω·cm^(2) at 800°C under the applied voltage of 1.8 V.And no significant performance attenuation or carbon deposition is observed after 80 h continuous long-term stability test.This study provides a favorable support for the development of SOEC cathode materials with good electro-catalytic performance and stability.

文摘The design of cost-effective and efficient metal-free carbon-based catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)is of great significance for increasing the production of clean hydrogen by the electrolysis of alkaline water.Precise control of the electronic structure by heteroatom doping has proven to be efficient for increasing catalytic activity.Nevertheless,both the structural characteristics and the underlying mechanism are not well understood,especially for doping with two different atoms,thus limiting the use of these catalysts.We report the production of phosphorus and nitrogen co-doped hollow carbon nanospheres(HCNs)by the copolymerization of pyrrole and aniline at a Triton X-100 micelle-interface,followed by doping with phytic acid and carbonization.The unique pore structure and defect-rich framework of the HCNs expose numerous active sites.Crucially,the combined effect of graphitic nitrogen and phosphorus-carbon bonds modulate the local electronic structure of adjacent C atoms and facilitates electron transfer.As a res-ult,the HCN carbonized at 1100°C exhibited superior HER activity and an outstanding stability(70 h at a current density of 10 mA cm^(−2))in alkaline water,because of the large number of graphitic nitrogen and phosphorus-carbon bonds.
文摘A zinc sulfate open framework matrix,[Zn(SO_4)(DMSO)](1),was synthesized by solvothermal evaporationusing dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO)as the solvent.A compositeP@1,which exhibits fluorescence and room tempera-ture phosphorescence(RTP)properties,was prepared by doping 2,6-naphthalic acid(P)into matrix1at a low con-centration.P@1emitted a green RTP that was visible to the naked eye and lasted for approximately 2 s.P@1exhib-ited selective phosphorescence enhancement response towards Pb^(2+),with a detection limit of 2.52μmol·L^(-1).Themain detection mechanism is the Pb—O coordination-induced phosphorescence enhancement in the system.Inter-estingly,P@1also functioned as a dual-channel probe for the rapid detection of Fe^(3+)ions through fluorescencequenching with a detection limit of 0.038μmol·L^(-1).The recognition mechanism may be attributed to the competi-tive energy absorption betweenP@1and Fe^(3+)ions.CCDC:2388502,1.

文摘Sulfide-based all-solid-state lithium batteries(ASSLBs) with nickel-rich oxide cathodes are emerging as primary contenders for the next generation rechargeable batteries,owing to their superior safety and energy density.However,the all-solid-state batteries with nickel-rich oxide cathodes suffer from performance degradation due to the reactions between the highly reactive surface oxygen of the cathode and the electrolyte,as well as the instability of the bulk oxygen structure in the cathode.Herein,we propose a synergistic modification design scheme to adjust the oxygen activity from surface to bulk.The LiBO_(2)coating inhibits the reactivity of surface lattice oxygen ions.Meanwhile,Zr doping in the bulk phase forms strong Zr-O covalent bonds that stabilize the bulk lattice oxygen structure.The synergistic effect of these modifications prevents the release of oxygen,thus avoiding the degradation of the cathode/SE interface.Additionally,the regulation of surface-to-bulk oxygen activity establishes a highly stable interface,thereby enhancing the lithium ion diffusion kinetics and mechanical stability of the cathode.Consequently,cathodes modified with this synergistic strategy exhibit outstanding performance in sulfide-based ASSLBs,including an ultra-long cycle life of 100,000 cycles,ultra-high rate capability at 45C,and 85% high active material content in the composite cathode.Additionally,ASSLB exhibits stable cycling under high loading conditions of 82.82 mg cm^(-2),achieving an areal capacity of 17.90 mA h cm^(-2).These encouraging results pave the way for practical applications of ASSLBs in fast charging,long cycle life,and high energy density in the future.

文摘The persistent stability of ruthenium dioxide(RuO_(2))in acidic oxygen evolution reactions(OER)is compromised by the involvement of lattice oxygen(LO)and metal dissolution during the OER process.Heteroatom doping has been recognized as a viable strategy to foster the stability of RuO_(2)for acidic OER applications.This study presented an ion that does not readily gain or lose electrons,Ba^(2+),into RuO_(2)(Ba-RuO_(2))nanosheet(NS)catalyst that increased the number of exposed active sites,achieving a current density of 10 mA/cm^(2)with an overpotential of only 229 mV and sustaining this output for over 250 h.According to density functional theory(DFT)and X-ray absorption spectroscopy,Ba doping resulted in a longer Ru-O bond length,which in turn diminished the covalency of the bond.This alteration curtailed the involvement of LO and the dissolution of ruthenium(Ru),thereby markedly improving the durability of the catalyst over extended periods.Additionally,attenuated total reflectance-surface enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy analysis substantiated that the OER mechanism shifted from a LO-mediated pathway to an adsorbate evolution pathway due to Ba doping,thereby circumventing Ru over-oxidation and further enhancing the stability of RuO_(2).Furthermore,DFT findings uncovered that Ba doping optimizes the adsorption energy of intermediates,thus enhancing the OER activity in acidic environments.This study offers a potent strategy to guide future developments on Ru-based oxide catalysts'stability in an acidic environment.

文摘The defect regulation and p-n heterojunction of composites have gained significant attention due to their potential applications.Nitrogen(N)as doping heteroatoms and perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboximide(PDINH)as an appropriate n-type semiconductor were innovatively and reasonably selected to enhance the photocatalytic performance of pristine p-type cuprous oxide(Cu_(2)O).In this study,the defect regula-tion of N doping(1)achieved the small-size effect of Cu_(2)O,(2)optimized the electron features,and(3)improved the kinetics of reactive oxygen species.The p-n heterojunction with PDINH was developed to sharply improve the light utilization of Cu_(2)O,from the UV region to the near-infrared region.As expected,the optimized Cu_(2)N_(x)O_(1–x)/PDINH(x=0.02)exhibited excellent long-term photocatalytic antibacterial ac-tivities,with antibacterial rates exceeding 91%against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.Defect regulation and p-n heterojunction of Cu_(2)O-based composites thus provide a great deal of potential for future advancements in photocatalysis.

文摘To realize the application of electromagnetic wave absorption(EWA)devices in humid marine environments,bifunctional EWA materials with better EWA capacities and anticorrosion properties have great exploration significance and systematic research re-quirements.By utilizing the low-cost and excellent magnetic and stable chemical characteristics of barium ferrite(BaFe_(12)O_(19))and using the high dielectric loss and excellent chemical inertia of nanocarbon clusters,a new type of nanocomposites with carbon nanoclusters en-capsulating BaFe_(12)O_(19)was designed and synthesized by combining an impregnation method and a high-temperature calcination strategy.Furthermore,Ce-Mn ions were introduced into the BaFe_(12)O_(19)lattice to improve the dielectric and magnetic properties of BaFe_(12)O_(19)cores significantly,and the energy band structure of the doped lattice and the orders of Ce replacing Fe sites were calculated.Benefiting from Ce-Mn ion doping and carbon nanocluster encapsulation,the composite material exhibited excellent dual functionality of corrosion resist-ance and EWA.When BaCe_(0.2)Mn_(0.3)Fe_(11.5)O_(19)-C(BCM-C)was calcined at 600°C,the minimum reflection loss of-20.1 dB was achieved at 14.43 GHz.The Ku band’s effective absorption bandwidth of 4.25 GHz was achieved at an absorber thickness of only 1.3 mm.The BCM-C/polydimethylsiloxane coating had excellent corrosion resistance in the simulated marine environment(3.5wt%NaCl solution).The|Z|0.01Hz value of BCM-C remained at 106Ω·cm^(2)after 12 soaking days.The successful preparation of the BaFe_(12)O_(19)composite en-capsulated with carbon nanoclusters provides new insights into the preparation of multifunctional absorbent materials and the fabrication of absorbent devices applied in humid marine environments in the future.

文摘Oxygen release and electrolyte decomposition under high voltage endlessly exacerbate interfacial ramifications and structu ral degradation of high energy-density Li-rich layered oxide(LLO),leading to voltage and capacity fading.Herein,the dual-strategy of Cr,B complex coating and local gradient doping is simultaneously achieved on LLO surface by a one-step wet chemical reaction at room temperature.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations prove that stable B-O and Cr-O bonds through the local gradient doping can significantly reduce the high-energy O 2p states of interfacial lattice O,which is also effective for the near-surface lattice O,thus greatly stabilizing the LLO surface,Besides,differential electrochemical mass spectrometry(DEMS)indicates that the Cr_(x)B complex coating can adequately inhibit oxygen release and prevents the migration or dissolution of transition metal ions,including allowing speedy Li^(+)migration,The voltage and capacity fading of the modified cathode(LLO-C_(r)B)are adequately suppressed,which are benefited from the uniformly dense cathode electrolyte interface(CEI)composed of balanced organic/inorganic composition.Therefore,the specific capacity of LLO-CrB after 200 cycles at 1C is 209.3 mA h g^(-1)(with a retention rate of 95.1%).This dual-strategy through a one-step wet chemical reaction is expected to be applied in the design and development of other anionic redox cathode materials.

文摘All-solid-state Li batteries(ASSLBs)using solid electrolytes(SEs)have gained significant attention in recent years considering the safety issue and their high energy density.Despite these advantages,the commercialization of ASSLBs still faces challenges regarding the electrolyte/electrodes interfaces and growth of Li dendrites.Elemental doping is an effective and direct method to enhance the performance of SEs.Here,we report an Al-F co-doping strategy to improve the overall properties including ion conductivity,high voltage stability,and cathode and anode compatibility.Particularly,the Al-F co-doping enables the formation of a thin Li-Al alloy layer and fluoride interphases,thereby constructing a relatively stable interface and promoting uniform Li deposition.The similar merits of Al-F co-doping are also revealed in the Li-argyrodite series.ASSLBs assembled with these optimized electrolytes gain good electrochemical performance,demonstrating the universality of Al-F co-doping towards advanced SEs.

文摘Novel hydrogen storage materials have propelled progress in hydrogen storage technologies.Magnesium hydride(MgH_(2))is a highly promising candidate.Nevertheless,several drawbacks,including the need for elevated thermal conditions,sluggish dehydrogena-tion kinetics,and high thermodynamic stability,limit its practical application.One effective method of addressing these challenges is cata-lyst doping,which effectively boosts the hydrogen storage capability of Mg-based materials.Herein,we review recent advancements in catalyst-doped MgH_(2) composites,with particular focus on multicomponent and high-entropy catalysts.Structure-property relationships and catalytic mechanisms in these doping strategies are also summarized.Finally,based on existing challenges,we discuss future research directions for the development of Mg-based hydrogen storage systems.

文摘Wide-bandgap two-dimensional (2D) β-TeO_(2) has been reported as a high-mobility p-type transparent semiconductor [Nat. Electron. 4 277 (2021)], attracting significant attention. This "breakthrough" not only challenges the conventional characterization of TeO_(2) as an insulator but also conflicts with the anticipated difficulty in hole doping of TeO_(2) by established chemical trends. Notably, the reported Fermi level of 0.9 eV above the valence band maximum actually suggests that the material is an insulator, contradicting the high hole density obtained by Hall effect measurement. Furthermore, the detected residual Se and the possible reduced elemental Te in the 2D β-TeO_(2) samples introduces complexity, considering that elemental Se, Te, and Te_(1−x)Se_(x) themselves are high-mobility p-type semiconductors. Therefore, doubts regarding the true cause of the p-type conductivity observed in the 2D β-TeO_(2) samples arise. In this Letter, we employ density functional theory calculations to illustrate that TeO_(2), whether in its bulk forms of α-, β-, or γ-TeO_(2), or in the 2D β-TeO_(2) nanosheets, inherently exhibits insulating properties and poses challenges in carrier doping due to its shallow conduction band minimum and deep valence band maximum. Our findings shed light on the insulating properties and doping difficulty of TeO_(2), contrasting with the claimed p-type conductivity in the 2D β-TeO_(2) samples, prompting inquiries into the true origin of the p-type conductivity.

文摘Herein,an external crosslinker facilitated the hypercrosslinking of ferrocene and a nitrogen heterocyclic compound(either melamine or imidazole)through a direct Friedel-Crafts reaction,which led to the formation of nitrogen-containing hypercrosslinked fer-rocene polymer precursors(HCP-FCs).Subsequent carbonization of these precursors results in the production of iron-nitrogen-doped por-ous carbon absorbers(Fe-NPCs).The Fe-NPCs demonstrate a porous structure comprising aggregated nanotubes and nanospheres.The porosity of this structure can be modulated by adjusting the iron and nitrogen contents to optimize impedance matching.The uniform dis-tribution of Fe-N_(x)C,N dipoles,andα-Fe within the carbon matrix can be ensured by using hypercrosslinked ferrocenes in constructing porous carbon,providing the absorber with numerous polarization sites and a conductive network.The electromagnetic wave absorption performance of the specially designed Fe-NPC-M_(2)absorbers is satisfactory,revealing a minimum reflection loss of-55.3 dB at 2.5 mm and an effective absorption bandwidth of 6.00 GHz at 2.0 mm.By utilizing hypercrosslinked polymers(HCPs)as precursors,a novel method for developing highly efficient carbon-based absorbing agents is introduced in this research.

文摘Seawater electrolysis is a promising approach for sustainable energy without relying on precious freshwater.However,the large-scale seawater electrolysis is hindered by low catalytic efficiency and severe anode corrosion caused by the harmful chlorine.In contrast to the oxygen evolution reaction (OER)and chlorin ion oxidation reaction (ClOR),glycerol oxidation reaction (GOR) is more thermodynamically and kinetically favorable alternative.Herein,a Ru doping cobalt phosphide (Ru-CoP_(2)) is proposed as a robust bifunctional electrocatalyst for seawater electrolysis and GOR,for the concurrent productions of hydrogen and value-added formate.The in situ and ex situ characterization analyses demonstrated that Ru doping featured in the dynamic reconstruction process from Ru-CoP_(2)to Ru-CoOOH,accounting for the superior GOR performance.Further coupling GOR with hydrogen evolution was realized by employing Ru-CoP_(2)as both anode and cathode,requiring only a low voltage of 1.43 V at 100 mA cm^(-2),which was 250 m V lower than that in alkaline seawater.This work guides the design of bifunctional electrocatalysts for energy-efficient seawater electrolysis coupled with biomass resource upcycling.

文摘In contrast to research on active sites in nanomaterials,lithium tantalate single crystals,known for their exceptional optical properties and long-range ordered lattice structure,present a promising avenue for in-depth exploration of photocatalytic reaction systems with fewer constraints imposed by surface chemistry.Typically,the isotropy of a specific facet provides a perfect support for studying heteroatom doping.Herein,this work delves into the intrinsic catalytic sites for photocatalytic nitrogen fixation in iron-doped lithium tantalate single crystals.The presence of iron not only modifies the electronic structure of lithium tantalate,improving its light absorption capacity,but also functions as an active site for the nitrogen adsorption and activation.The photocatalytic ammonia production rate of the iron-doped lithium tantalate in pure water is maximum 26.95μg cm^(−2)h^(−1),which is three times higher than that of undoped lithium tantalate.The combination of first-principles simulations with in situ characterizations confirms that iron doping promotes the rate-determining step and changes the pathway of hydrogenation to associative alternating.This study provides a new perspective on in-depth investigation of intrinsic catalytic active sites in photocatalysis and other catalytic processes.

文摘Magnetostrictive Fe-Ga alloys have captivated substantial focus in biomedical applications because of their exceptional transition efficiency and favorable cytocompatibility.Nevertheless,Fe-Ga alloys always exhibit frustrating magnetostriction coefficients when presented in bulk dimensions.It is well-established that the magnetostrictive performance of Fe-Ga alloys is intimately linked to their phase and crystal structures.In this study,various concentrations of boron(B)were doped into Fe_(81)Ga_(19) alloys via the laser-beam powder bed fusion(LPBF)technique to tailor the crystal and phase structures,thereby improving the magnetostrictive performance.The results revealed the capacity for quick solidification of the LPBF process in expediting the solid solution of B element,which increased both lattice distortion and dislocations within the Fe-Ga matrix.These factors contributed to an elevation in the density of the modified-D0_(3) phase structure.Moreover,the prepared Fe-Ga-B alloys also exhibited a(001)preferred grain orientation caused by the high thermal gradients during the LPBF process.As a result,a maximum magnetostriction coefficient of 105 ppm was achieved in the(Fe_(81)Ga_(19))_(98.5)B_(1.5) alloy.In alternating magnetic fields,all the LPBF-prepared alloys showed good dynamic magnetostriction response without visible hysteresis,while the(Fe_(81)Ga_(19))_(98.5)B_(1.5) alloy presented a notable enhancement of~30%in magnetostriction coefficient when compared with the Fe_(81)Ga_(19) alloy.Moreover.the(Fe_(81)Ga_(19))_(98.5)B_(1.5) alloy exhibited favorable biocompatibility and osteogenesis,as confirmed by increased alkaline phosphatase(ALP)activity and the formation of mineralized nodules.These findings suggest that the B-doped Fe-Ga alloys combined with the LPBF technique hold promise for the development of bulk magnetostrictive alloys that are applicable for bone repair applications.

文摘Lithium argyrodites with high ionic conductivity and low cost are considered as one of the most prospective solid electrolytes for all-solid-state lithium batteries.However,the poor chemical stability and compatibility with lithium metal limit their application.Herein,Li_(5.4)PS_(4.4)Cl1.4I0.2solid electrolyte with high ionic conductivity of 11.49 m S ccm^(-1)and improved chemical stability is synthesized by iodine doping.An ultra-thin Li_(5.4)PS_(4.4)Cl_(1.4)I_(0.2)membrane with thickness of 10μm can be obtained by wet coating process,exhibiting a high ionic conductivity of 2.09 mS ccm^(-1)and low areal resistance of 1.17Ωcm^(-2).Moreover,iodine doping could in-situ form LiI at the lithium/electrolyte interface and improve the critical current density of Li_(5.4)PS_(4.4)Cl_(1.6)from 0.8 to 1.35 mA cm^(-2).The resultant LiCoO_(2)/Li_(5.4)PS_(4.4)Cl_(1.4)I_(0.2)/Li battery shows excellent cycling stability at 1 C,with a reversible specific capacity of 110.1 mA h g^(-1)and a retention of 80.5% after 1000 cycles.In addition,the assembled LiCoO_(2)/Li_(5.4)PS_(4.4)Cl_(1.4)I_(0.2)membrane/Li pouch cell delivers an initial discharge capacity of 110.4 mA h g^(-1)and 80.5% capacity retention after 100 cycles.

文摘Non-precious metal cobalt-based oxide inevitably dissolves for acid oxygen evolution reaction(OER).Designing an efficient deposition channel for leaching cobalt species is a promising approach.The dissolution-deposition equilibrium of Co is achieved by doping Mn in the lattice of LaCo_(1-x)Mn_(x)O_(3),prolonging the lifespan in acidic conditions by 14 times.The lattice doping of Mn produces a strain that enhances the adsorption capacity of OH^(-).The self-catalysis of Mn causes the leaching Co to be deposited in the form of CoO_(2),which ensures that the long-term stability of LaCo_(1-x)Mn_(x)O_(3)is 70 h instead of 5 h for LaCoO_(3).Mn doping enhances the deprotonation of^(*)OOH→O_(2)in acidic environments.Notably,the over-potential of optimized LaCo_(1-x)Mn_(x)O_(3)is 345 mV at 10 mA cm^(-2)for acidic OER.This work presents a promising method for developing noble metal-free catalysts that enhance the acidic OER activity and stability.
