A core@shell C/Cu@CoO catalyst with interfacial-engineered nano-islands on a Cu substrate was constructed, featuring accelerated electron-transfer properties and optimized nitrate trapping through the synergetic interfacial effect, achieving a remarkable NH yield of 57.4 ± 2.9 mg h mg and high Faraday efficiency of 98.4 ± 1.2%, surpassing most reported non-precious metal catalysts.

Stable and reliable operation of implantable electronics must ensure both high-quality electrical performance and chronic biocompatibility. Here, immune-stealth implantable electronics fabricated by multiphoton ablation lithography are introduced. The cell-repellent interface, consisting of micro-grooves and nano-islands, can be created by laser-assisted topography patterning on a thin film substrate.

Dry synthesis is a highly versatile method for the fabrication of nanoporous metal films, since it enables easy and reproducible deposition of single or multi-layers of nanostructured materials that can find intriguing applications in plasmonics, photochemistry and photocatalysis, to name a few. Here, we extend the use of this methodology to the preparation of copper nano-islands that represent an affordable and versatile example of disordered plasmonic substrates. Although the island morphology is disordered, the high density of these nanostructures with large surface area results in a good homogeneity on a macroscale, which is beneficial for plasmonic applications such as bio-sensing and photo-catalysis.
