Article Abstract
Anion vacancy migration in the orthorhombic phase of the lead-halide perovskite CsPbBr under hydrostatic pressure is studied computationally. Density functional theory calculations are used to determine transition states, activation enthalpies, and attempt frequencies for vacancies to hop between nearby lattice sites, under pressure in the range 0.0-2.0 GPa. The resulting data are used to parametrize a kinetic model of vacancy migration under the influence of an electric field, which is solved in the steady state to determine the anion vacancy mobility tensor as a function of pressure. It is found that the mobility tensor becomes increasingly anisotropic with increasing pressure, such that at 2.0 GPa, the mobility within the (010) lattice plane is 3 orders of magnitude greater than the mobility normal to it. The results demonstrate the potentially significant influence of pressure, and by extension, other forms of stress, on defect migration in lead-halide perovskites.

Significant efforts have been devoted to optimizing the morphology and synthesizing composite materials to activate SnO for sodium-ion batteries. However, challenges arising from its intrinsic crystal structure remain insufficiently addressed. This study aims to introduce both oxygen vacancies and fluorine ions into the SnO lattice, yielding a modified compound with a chemical composition of SnO£F.

Ischemic reperfusion (I/R) injury is dominated by excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated oxidative damage and uncontrolled inflammation, yet effective strategies for simultaneous diagnosis and treatment remain elusive. Herein, we report a defect-engineered amorphous-like MnCeO nanointerceptor with dual capabilities of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) -guided stroke diagnosis and ROS-scavenging therapy. The synergistic effect of the amorphous-like structure and Mn-Ce solid solution induces abundant oxygen vacancies and a disordered surface, significantly boosting ROS catalytic removal.

MXene delivers promising features that are highly compatible with oxygen electrocatalysis, such as excellent electroconductivity, high specific surface area, superhydrophilicity, and tailorable chemically functionalized surfaces, thus being recognized as the ideal platform for developing high-performance catalysts for practical applications in industrial devices. A comprehensive understanding of oxygen catalytic mechanism on MXene ontology and a systematic refining of the general principles toward various physicochemical property regulation strategies are, respectively, the basis and effective alleyway to hitting the target, yet it is currently insufficient and need to be further explored in-depth. Herein, the fundamental effects of MXene on oxygen catalytic activity are sorted out thoroughly, and on this basis, the current mainstream strategies for tuning the property of MXene-based electrocatalysts are classified into four categories, including anion-tuning, cation-tuning, defect/vacancy regulation, and heterometallic dual-site collaboration, where the intrinsic mechanism of each strategy affecting the structure-activity relationship of catalysts is revealed accordingly.

Understanding nanoscale heat dissipation during cellular thermogenesis is critical for elucidating the interplay between the thermal dynamics and biological functions. Quantum sensing with nitrogen-vacancy centers in fluorescent nanodiamonds (FNDs) is a powerful tool to probe these processes; however, conventional optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) based on fluorescence intensity suffers from environmental noise in biological systems. Here, we demonstrate that lifetime-based ODMR overcomes these limitations and delivers robust nanoscale measurements in both aqueous and physiological environments.
