Article Abstract
Platinum (Pt)-based nanozymes display exceptional stability and catalytic activity in the activation of HO, making them ideal peroxidase (POD)-like substitutes for immunoassay applications. However, specific catalytic progress is hindered by the excessive orbital overlaps between Pt and oxygen-based intermediates. Herein, a highly efficient mesoporous medium-entropy alloy (m-MEA) nanozyme is reported to selectively enhance POD activity through synergy interaction of multiple elements. Such synergy reduces the 5 orbital energy of Pt, thereby lowering antibonding energy levels and weakening - orbital hybridization between the O 2 and Pt 5. The reduced orbital overlap lowers energetic barriers and suppresses the excessive adsorption of oxygenated intermediates (*OH/*OH), as well as weakens oxygen poisoning of active sites. In addition, the exposed mesoporous structure of m-MEA nanozyme ensures accessible active sites, resulting in a high POD specific activity of 304 ± 1.69 U mg, which is 6.58- and 507-folds higher than that of mesoporous Pt and nonporous MEA nanozymes, respectively. The m-MEA-based immunoassay platform has been utilized for the detection of prostate-specific antigens, achieving an exceptionally low detection limit of 1.20 pg mL, surpassing the sensitivity of traditional enzyme-linked assays.

The polysulfide shuttling and sluggish sulfur redox kinetics hinder the commercialization of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries. Herein, the fabrication of phosphorus (P)-doped iron telluride (FeTe) nanoparticles with engineered Te vacancies anchored on nitrogen (N)-doped carbon (C) (P-FeTe@NC) is presented as a multifunctional sulfur host. Theoretical and experimental analyses show that Te vacancies create electron-deficient Fe sites, which chemically anchor polysulfides through enhanced Fe─S covalent interactions.

Facing the massive energy consumption of over 200 TWh y of chlor-alkali industry, developing high-activity and durable non-precious CER (chlorine evolution reaction) catalysts is urgently needed to address the high overpotentials and suppress the dissolution high-valance metal species. Herein, a carbon quantum dots functionalized trimetallic Fe/Co/Ni spinel oxide nanotube architecture (FCNO@CQDs) is constructed, featuring t-to-π* π-backbonding for dramatically enhanced CER activity and stability. The reverse electron flow from Co d-obritals to the vacant CQDs' π* orbitals can upshift the d-band center for enhanced intermediate adsorption, while stabilizing high-valent Co centers via increased bond order.

Axial ligand engineering is a promising strategy to enhance the performance of single-atom catalysts (SACs) in electrocatalysis. However, a single non-metallic axial coordination atom linked to monolayer SACs (MSACs) often exhibits insufficient stability. In this work, we designed a series of bilayer SACs (BSACs) with vertically stacked FeN and MN (M = Sc-Zn) layers bridged by axial non-metallic atoms (C, N, O, P, S, and Se).

Hard carbon is the most commercially viable anode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), yet its application in ester-based electrolytes is hindered by sluggish interfacial ion diffusion and limited sodium nucleation kinetics. After comprehensive evaluation, an interfacial chemistry regulation strategy was proposed based on orbital hybridization between bismuth and electrolyte ions, which was realized through the introduction of ammonium bismuth citrate. The surface bismuth particles regulate the formation of a NaF-rich SEI through improved anion affinity.
