Spin-State Engineering of Iron Phthalocyanine D-Orbitals via Atomic Fe-N Coupling for Enhanced Oxygen Reduction Reaction.

Since the properties of electron transfer and orbital interactions in oxygen electrocatalysts are highly spin-dependent, reaction kinetics and thermodynamics are very sensitive to the spin configuration. However, understanding the spin-related origin of catalytic activity in heterogeneous molecular electrocatalysts still remains challenging. Herein, a molecular-atomic coupled catalyst is constructed by integrating iron phthalocyanine (FePc) molecules with Fe-N atomic sites anchored on nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (FePc-Fe-NCNT).

Photoluminescent Core-Shell Structural Porous Fibers-Based Metafabric for Colored Daytime Passive Radiative Cooling.

Passive radiative cooling technology provides a sustainable thermal management strategy for outdoor workers under extremely hot environments.
