Article Abstract
Although chemical doping has been extensively employed to improve the electrochemical performance of Li-rich layered oxide (LLO) cathodes for Li ion batteries, the correlation between the electrochemical kinetics and local structure and chemistry of these materials after chemical doping is still not fully understood. Herein, gradient surface Si/Sn-doped LLOs with improved kinetics are demonstrated. The atomic local structure and surface chemistry are determined using electron microscopy and spectroscopy techniques, and remarkably, the correlation of local structure-enhanced kinetics is clearly described in this work. The experimental results suggest that Si/Sn substitution decreases the TMO slab thickness and enlarges the interslab spacing, and the concentration gradient of Si/Sn affects the magnitude of these structural changes. The expanded interslab spacing accounts for the enhanced Li diffusivity and rate performance observed in Si/Sn-doped materials. The improved understanding of the local structure-enhanced kinetic relationship for doped LLOs demonstrates the potential for the design and development of other high-rate intercalated electrode materials.

Biomass containing inorganic ingredients can be converted into highly porous biochar via in-situ activation and templating process. Here, N-doped biochar is obtained by pyrolysis of spinach organs for efficient dye removal, using methylene blue (MB) as a model dye, and pyrolysis temperature plays a critical role in determining both porosity and N-species within biochar. Significantly, leaf biochar (LC-900) as pyrolyzed at 900 °C shows surface areas of 1263 m/g larger than that of biochar from stem and root, indicating a dependence on the biomass organ source.

In this study, a novel carbon dots-based system was developed for the sequential quantification of Au and L-cysteine (L-Cys). The system comprises N,F-doped carbon dots (N,F-CDs), a custom-designed miniaturized fluorimeter, and test strips. The N,F-CDs exhibit outstanding optical properties, including a large Stokes shift (127 nm) and high fluorescence intensity.

Spinel lithium manganate (LiMnO) is considered a highly promising cobalt-free cathode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) owing to its three-dimensional Li-ion diffusion channels and the abundance of manganese. However, its practical applications are limited due to the substantial capacity deterioration induced by the Jahn-Teller effect and interfacial instability with the organic electrolyte. In this work, we propose a polyanion-based surface engineering strategy that enables simultaneous doping and the formation of a protective coating on the LiMnO cathode.

With the trend of heavy and inferior crude oil, the design of hydrodesulfurization (HDS) catalysts with excellent activity and high active metal utilization is an inevitable trend for the upgrading of refining technology. In this study, a highly dispersed Mo catalyst confined within nitrogen-doped porous carbon (xMo@NC) was prepared using an in situ encapsulation-pyrolysis approach and used in the HDS reaction of dibenzothiophene (DBT). The methods of XRD, HRTEM, HAADF-STEM, N physisorption, FT-IR, Raman, and XPS were used to carry out thorough microstructural characterization.

The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) through nanozyme-mediated sonocatalytic therapy has demonstrated remarkable therapeutic efficacy in the field of cancer. Nevertheless, it remains a significant challenge for nanozymes with a single catalytic active center to generate sufficient ROS via Fenton or Fenton-like reactions to effectively induce tumor cell death. In order to enhance the catalytic efficacy, we devised and synthesized a multiple active centre and mitochondrial-targeted perovskite nanozyme (NCFP), doped with cobalt (Co) element, and incorporated 4-carboxybutyltriphenylphosphonium bromide (TPP) as a mitochondrial targeting marker for ultrasound (US)-assisted enzyme-like catalytic treatment of tumors.
