Abstract
Elemental two-dimensional (2D) materials have emerged as promising candidates for energy and catalysis applications due to their unique physical, chemical, and electronic properties. These materials are advantageous in offering massive surface-to-volume ratios, favorable transport properties, intriguing physicochemical properties, and confinement effects resulting from the 2D ultrathin structure. In this review, we focus on the recent advances in emerging energy and catalysis applications based on beyond-graphene elemental 2D materials. First, we briefly introduce the general classification, structure, and properties of elemental 2D materials and the new advances in material preparation. We then discuss various applications in energy harvesting and storage, including solar cells, piezoelectric and triboelectric nanogenerators, thermoelectric devices, batteries, and supercapacitors. We further discuss the explorations of beyond-graphene elemental 2D materials for electrocatalysis, photocatalysis, and heterogeneous catalysis. Finally, the challenges and perspectives for the future development of elemental 2D materials in energy and catalysis are discussed.

Abstract
There is a lack of straightforward methods to prepare high-quality bismuthene nanosheets, or, even more challengingly, to grow their arrays due to the low melting point and high oxophilicity of bismuth. This synthetic obstacle has hindered their potential applications. In this work, it is demonstrated that the galvanic replacement reaction can do the trick. Under well-controlled conditions, large-area vertically aligned bismuthene nanosheet arrays are grown on Cu substrates of various shapes and sizes. The product features small nanosheet thickness of two to three atomic layers, large surface areas, and abundant porosity between nanosheets. Most remarkably, bismuthene nanosheet arrays grown on Cu foam can enable efficient CO2 reduction to formate with high Faradaic efficiency of >90%, large current density of 50 mA cm-2 , and great stability.

Abstract
Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (ERCO2 ) is an attractive and sustainable approach to close the carbon loop. Formic acid is a high-value and readily collectible liquid product. However, the current reaction selectivity remains unsatisfactory. In this study, the bismuth-containing metal-organic framework CAU-17, with morphological variants of hexagonal prisms (CAU-17-hp) and nanofibers (CAU-17-fiber), is prepared at room temperature through a wet-chemical approach and employed as the electrocatalyst for highly selective CO2 -to-formate conversion. An H3 BTC-mediated morphology reconstruction is systematically investigated and further used to build a CAU-17-fiber hierarchical structure. The as-prepared CAU-17-fiber_400 electrodes give the best electrocatalytic performance in selective and efficient formate production with FEHCOO- of 96.4 % and jCOOH- of 20.4 mA cm-2 at -0.9 VRHE . This work provides a new mild approach for synthesis and morphology engineering of CAU-17 and demonstrates the efficacy of morphology engineering in regulating the accessible surface area and promoting the activity of MOF-based materials for ERCO2 .

Abstract
In electrocatalysis, doping regulation has been considered as an effective method to modulate the active sites of catalysts, providing a powerful means for creating a large variety of highly efficient catalysts for various reactions. Of particular interest, there has been growing research concerning the doping of two-dimensional transition-metal compounds (TMCs) to optimize their electrocatalytic performance. Despite the previous achievements, mechanistic insights of doping regulation in TMCs for electrocatalysis are still lacking. Herein, we provide a systematic overview of doping regulation in TMCs in terms of background, preparation, impacts on physicochemical properties, and typical applications including the hydrogen evolution reaction, oxygen evolution reaction, oxygen reduction reaction, CO2 reduction reaction, and N2 reduction reaction. Notably, we bridge the understanding between the doping regulation of catalysts and their catalytic activities via focusing on the physicochemical properties of catalysts from the aspects of vacancy concentrations, phase transformation, surface wettability, electrical conductivity, electronic band structure, local charge distribution, tunable adsorption strength, and multiple adsorption configurations. We also discuss the existing challenges and future perspectives in this promising field.

Abstract
Monitoring and controlling the reconstruction of materials under working conditions is crucial for the precise identification of active sites, elucidation of reaction mechanisms, and rational design of advanced catalysts. Herein, a Bi-based metal-organic framework (Bi-MOF) for electrochemical CO2 reduction is selected as a case study. In situ Raman spectra combined with ex situ electron microscopy reveal that the intricate reconstruction of the Bi-MOF can be controlled using two steps: 1) electrolyte-mediated dissociation and conversion of Bi-MOF to Bi2 O2 CO3 , and 2) potential-mediated reduction of Bi2 O2 CO3 to Bi. The intentionally reconstructed Bi catalyst exhibits excellent activity, selectivity, and durability for formate production, and the unsaturated surface Bi atoms formed during reconstruction become the active sites. This work emphasizes the significant impact of pre-catalyst reconstruction under working conditions and provides insight into the design of highly active and stable electrocatalysts through the regulation of these processes.

Abstract
Electrochemical CO2 reduction to formate offers a mild and feasible pathway for the utilization of CO2 , and bismuth is a promising metal for its unique hydrogen evolution reaction inhibition. Reported works of Bi-based electrodes generally exhibit high selectivity while suffering from relatively narrow working potential range. From the perspective of electronic modification engineering, B-doped Bi is prepared by a facile chemical reduction method in this work. With B dopant, above 90% Faradaic efficiency for formate over a broad window of working potential of -0.6 to -1.2 V (vs. reversible hydrogen electrode) is achieved. In situ Raman spectroscopy, X-ray adsorption spectroscopy, and computational analysis demonstrate that the B dopant induces the formation of electron-rich bismuth, which is in favor of the formation of formate by fine-tuning the adsorption energy of *OCHO. Moreover, full-cell electrolysis system coupled with photovoltaic device is constructed and achieves the solar-to-formate conversion efficiency as high as 11.8%.

Abstract
2D bismuth nanosheets are a promising layered material for formate-producing via electrocatalytic CO2 conversion. However, the commercial interest of bismuth nanosheets in CO2 electroreduction is still rare due to the undesirable current density for formate at moderate operation potentials (about 200 mA mg-1 ) and harsh synthesis conditions (high temperature and/or high pressure). This work reports the preparation of Bi nanosheets with a lateral size in micrometer-scale via electrochemical cathodic exfoliation in aqueous solution at normal pressure and temperature. As-prepared Bi LNSs (L indicates large lateral size) possess high Faradaic efficiencies over 90% within a broad potential window from -0.44 to -1.10 V versus RHE and a superior partial current density about 590 mA mg-1 for formate in comparison with state-of-the-art results. Structure analysis, electrochemical results, and density functional theory calculations demonstrate that the increasing tensile lattice strain observed in Bi LNSs leads to less overlap of d orbitals and a narrower d-band width, which tuning the intermediate binding energies, and therefore promotes the intrinsic activity.

A general strategy for obtaining BiOX nanoplates derived Bi nanosheets as efficient CO 2 reduction catalysts by enhancing CO 2•- adsorption and electron transfer. J Colloid Interface Sci 2021; 602:740-747. [PMID: 34153712 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2021.06.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2021] [Revised: 05/29/2021] [Accepted: 06/01/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
Electroreduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) into formic acid/formate has been considered as one of the most promising strategies for obtaining value-added fuels and chemical productions. Herein, we present a general method for preparing Bi-based electrocatalysts via in situ reduction of bismuth oxyiodide (BiOI) in CO2-saturated electrolyte. The precursors of BiOI nanoplates (P-nanoplates) with thickness of 30-40 nm could be easily obtained and provide a concise model to probe the mechanisms of CO2 reduction to formate. BiOI nanoplates precursors derived Bi nanosheets (P-nanoplates-Bi) exhibited an excellent performance for CO2 reduction to formate, achieving Faradaic efficiencies (FEs) over 80% in a wide potential window and a maximum FE approaching of 95% with a current density of 13.3 ± 0.6 mA cm-2 at -0.9 V versus reverse hydrogen electrode (υs. RHE). Such P-nanoplates-Bi nanosheets showed a stable electrocatalytic actitivity during 15 h operation in 0.5 M KHCO3 aqueous solution. The superior performance is mainly attributed to the two-dimensional (2D) Bi nanosheets, which can increase CO2•- adsorption, enlarge active surface area, show better reaction kinetics and provide lower contact resistance with accelerated electron transfer. For comparison, precursors of BiOI plate-like (P-bulk) with doubled thicknesses and ultrathin BiOI with a few nanometers derived Bi catalysts tend to agglomerate and appear as irregular structured Bi nanoparticles during the reaction. Their peak FEs for formate are much lower than those of P-nanoplates derived Bi nanosheets at -0.9 V.

Abstract
Electrosynthesis of formic acid/formate is a promising alternative protocol to industrial processes. Herein, a pioneering pair-electrosynthesis tactic is reported for exclusively producing formate via coupling selectively electrocatalytic methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) and CO2 reduction reaction (CO2 RR), in which the electrode derived from Ni-based metal-organic framework (Ni-MOF) nanosheet arrays (Ni-NF-Af), as well as the Bi-MOF-derived ultrathin bismuthenes (Bi-enes), both obtained through an in situ electrochemical conversion process, are used as efficient anodic and cathodic electrocatalysts, respectively, achieving concurrent yielding of the same high-value product at both electrodes with greatly reduced energy input. The as-prepared Ni-NF-Af only needs quite low potentials to reach large current densities (e.g., 100 mA cm-2 @1.345 V) with ≈100% selectivity for anodic methanol-to-formate conversion. Meanwhile, for CO2 RR in the cathode, the as-prepared Bi-enes can simultaneously exhibit near-unity selectivity, large current densities, and good stability in a wide potential window toward formate production. Consequently, the coupled MOR//CO2 RR system based on the distinctive MOF-derived catalysts displays excellent performance for pair-electrosynthesis of formate, delivering high current densities and nearly 100% selectivity for formate production in both the anode and the cathode. This work provides a novel way to design advanced MOF-derived electrocatalysts and innovative electrolytic systems for electrochemical production of value-added feedstocks.

Abstract
The electroreduction of CO2 into the highly value-added fuel formic acid (HCOOH) has been considered an ideal approach to convert renewable energy and mitigate environmental crisis. SnO2 electrode is one of the promising candidates to electrocatalytically convert CO2 to HCOOH, but its poor stability limits its future development and application. In this study, highly stable SnO2 /Bi2 O3 oxide catalysts are obtained by distributing SnO2 nanoparticles on the surface of Bi2 O3 sheets. The XPS spectra revealed an interfacial electronic transportation from Bi2 O3 sheets to SnO2 nanoparticles, which made SnO2 rich of electrons. The strong interfacial interaction protected the active sites of SnO2 from self-reduction in CO2 electroreduction reaction (CO2 RR), stabilizing SnO2 species in the composite catalyst even after long-term usage. Calculations based on density functional theory signified that the presence of Bi2 O3 favored the adsorption of HCOO* intermediate, improved the CO2 conversion into HCOOH on SnO2 /Bi2 O3 interface. As a result, the SnO2 /Bi2 O3 catalyst attained high performance on CO2 RR (the highest FE C 1 value of 90 % at -1.0 V vs. RHE), suppressing H2 evolution reaction (HER) at high potentials. In particular, the selectivity of HCOOH remained above 76 % in a wide potential window (from -1.0 to -1.4 V vs. RHE) and a long duration (12 h).

Abstract
The reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2 ) into value-added fuels using an electrochemical method has been regarded as a compelling sustainable energy conversion technology. However, high-performance electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction reaction (CO2 RR) with high formate selectivity and good stability need to be improved. Earth-abundant Bi has been demonstrated to be active for CO2 RR to formate. Herein, we fabricated an extremely active and selective bismuth nanosheet (Bi-NSs) assembly via an in situ electrochemical transformation of (BiO)2 CO3 nanostructures. The as-prepared material exhibits high activity and selectivity for CO2 RR to formate, with nearly 94% faradaic efficiency at -1.03 V (versus reversible hydrogen electrode (vs. RHE)) and stable selectivity (>90%) in a large potential window ranging from -0.83 to -1.18 V (vs. RHE) and excellent durability during 12 h continuous electrolysis. In addition, the Bi-NSs based CO2 RR/methanol oxidation reaction (CO2 RR/MOR) electrolytic system for overall CO2 splitting was constructed, evidencing the feasibility of its practical implementation.

Abstract
Carbon dioxide (CO2) from the excessive consumption of fossil fuels has exhibited a huge threat to the planet's ecosystem. Electrocatalytic CO2 reduction into value-added chemicals has been regarded as a promising strategy in CO2 utilization and needs the development of advanced electrocatalysts for lowering the activation energy and enhancing selectivity in CO2 reduction. Two-dimensional (2D) materials, benefiting from their unique geometrical structures, have been extensively studied in the electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR). In this review, we systematically overview atomic-level engineering strategies in 2D electrocatalysts for the CO2RR, including thickness control, elemental doping, vacancy engineering, heterostructure construction, and single-atom loading. Meanwhile, we analyze the relationship between structures and activity in electrocatalysis, and present the future challenges and opportunities in the electrocatalytic CO2RR, and we hope that this review will offer helpful guidance for developing electrocatalysts for the CO2RR.

Abstract
Ultrasound (US)-mediated sonodynamic therapy (SDT) has emerged as a superior modality for cancer treatment owing to the non-invasiveness and high tissue-penetrating depth. However, developing biocompatible nanomaterial-based sonosensitizers with efficient SDT capability remains challenging. Here, we employed a liquid-phase exfoliation strategy to obtain a new type of two-dimensional (2D) stanene-based nanosheets (SnNSs) with a band gap of 2.3 eV, which is narrower than those of the most extensively studied nano-sonosensitizers, allowing a more efficient US-triggered separation of electron (e- )-hole (h+ ) pairs for reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. In addition, we discovered that such SnNSs could also serve as robust near-infrared (NIR)-mediated photothermal therapy (PTT) agents owing to their efficient photothermal conversion, and serve as nanocarriers for anticancer drug delivery owing to the inherent 2D layered structure. This study not only presents general nanoplatforms for SDT-enhanced combination cancer therapy, but also highlights the utility of 2D SnNSs to the field of nanomedicine.

Abstract
Electroreduction of CO2 to HCOOH with high current densities and efficiencies remains a challenge. Herein, we developed a metallic Bi catalyst with abundant grain boundaries through the electrochemical transformation of BiPO4 nanorods to boost the catalytic performance of the electroreduction of CO2 to HCOOH. The phosphate-derived Bi catalyst (PD-Bi) achieved an FE of 91.9% for HCOOH at a high current density of -600.0 mA cm-2. Mechanistic study revealed that the abundant grain boundaries within PD-Bi promoted the adsorption of CO2 and stabilization of the CO2˙- intermediate, resulting in facilitated CO2 activation and thus enhanced catalytic performance.

Abstract
Catalysis in a confined space has attracted much attention due to the simultaneously designable nature of active sites and their microenvironment, leading to a broad spectrum of highly efficient chemical conversion schemes. Recent work has extended the scope of confined catalysis to electrochemical reactions. Mechanistic studies suggest that the confined environment in electrocatalysis can modulate mechanical, electronic, and geometric effects, stabilizing important charge-transfer intermediates and promoting reaction kinetics. In this minireview, we first discuss the fundamental concepts of confined catalysis by summarizing density functional theory (DFT) calculations and experimental investigations. We then present the rational design and applications of space-confined electrocatalysts with emphasis on the confined environment provided by carbon-based materials. We specifically focus on metal-based materials confined in carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and their applications in emerging electrochemical reactions including the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), water-splitting reactions, carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR), and nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR). Finally, the existing challenges, opportunities, and future directions of electrocatalysis in confined spaces are highlighted.

Abstract
Electrochemical conversion of CO2 into liquid fuels by efficient and earth-abundant catalysts is of broad interest but remains a great challenge in renewable energy production and environmental remediation. Herein, a Sn particle-decorated polymeric carbon nitride (CN) electrocatalyst was successfully developed for efficient, durable, and highly selective CO2 reduction to formic acid. High-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed that the metallic Sn particles and CN matrix are bound by strong chemical interaction, rendering the composite catalyst a stable structure. More notably, the electronic structure of Sn was well tuned to be highly electron-rich due to the electron transfer from N atoms of CN to Sn atoms via metal-support interactions, which favored the adsorption and activation of CO2 molecules, promoted charge transport, and thus enhanced the electrochemical conversion of CO2 . The composite electrocatalyst demonstrated an excellent Faradaic efficiency of formic acid (FEHCOOH ) up to 96±2 % at the potential of -0.9 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode, which remained at above 92 % during the electrochemical reaction of 10 h, indicating that the present Sn particle-decorated polymeric carbon nitride electrocatalyst is among the best in comparison with reported Sn-based electrocatalysts.

Abstract
As a conceptually attractive strategy, the use of immune checkpoint blockade antibodies to treat cancer is limited due to the restrained tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), poor accumulation and penetration of antibodies, and deficient checkpoint blockade in malignancies. In this study, we describe a pH and mild photothermal sequentially triggered PD-L1 siRNA release nanosystem, based on monoelemental bismuthene, as a one-for-all strategy to realize enhanced tumor mild photothermal immunotherapy. Under manually controlled NIR irradiation, the bismuthene-based nanosystem simultaneously induces a tumor-enhanced pathological permeability and retention (EPPR) effect, increases TIL recruitment, and triggers programmed siRNA release, thereby amplifying anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy. In addition, the nanosystem's rapid removal through intestinal and renal clearance mitigates toxicity risk associated with long-term retention. In vivo antitumor experiments demonstrate that this bismuthene-based nanosystem is a promising and effective approach for "cold" tumor management.

Abstract
Probing and understanding the intrinsic active sites of electrocatalysts is crucial to unravel the underlying mechanism of CO2 electroreduction and provide a prospective for the rational design of high-performance electrocatalysts. However, their structure-activity relationships are not straightforward because electrocatalysts might reconstruct under realistic working conditions. Herein, we employ in-situ measurements to unveil the intrinsic origin of the InN nanosheets which served as an efficient electrocatalyst for CO2 reduction with a high faradaic efficiency of 95% for carbonaceous product. During the CO2 electroreduction, InN nanosheets reconstructed to form the In-rich surface. Density functional theory calculations revealed that the reconstruction of InN led to the redistribution of surface charge that significantly promoted the adsorption of HCOO* intermediates and thus benefited the formation of formate toward CO2 electroreduction. This work establishes a fundamental understanding on the mechanism associated with self-reconstruction of heterogeneous catalysts toward CO2 electroreduction.

Abstract
Monoelemental two-dimensional (2D) group-VA materials have received increasing interest due to their great potential in optoelectronic applications. Despite numerous efforts have been made for their syntheses, the development of effective and better controllable synthetic approaches for the preparation of monoelemental 2D group-VA materials is still in its infancy. In this work, we report a soft-template approach for the synthesis of multilayered antimonene and bismuthene nanosheets in colloidal solutions. We show that the prepared antimonene and bismuthene nanosheets possess a well-defined rhombohedral crystal structure with impressive stability. We elucidate a formation pathway for the 2D nanosheets with small-angle X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. We demonstrate that SbCl3 dissolves in alkyl phosphonic acids to form a lamellar structure initially, which is apt for the formation of the final 2D morphology. The present study introduces a general route to synthesizing monoelemental 2D group-VA materials in colloidal solutions and gives a deeper insight into their growth mechanism.

Abstract
Main-group element indium (In) is a promising electrocatalyst which triggers CO2 reduction to formate, while the high overpotential and low Faradaic efficiency (FE) hinder its practical application. Herein, we rationally design a new In single-atom catalyst containing exclusive isolated Inδ+ -N4 atomic interface sites for CO2 electroreduction to formate with high efficiency. This catalyst exhibits an extremely large turnover frequency (TOF) up to 12500 h-1 at -0.95 V versus the reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE), with a FE for formate of 96 % and current density of 8.87 mA cm-2 at low potential of -0.65 V versus RHE. Our findings present a feasible strategy for the accurate regulation of main-group indium catalysts for CO2 reduction at atomic scale.

Continuous Electrochemical Reduction of CO 2 to Formate: Comparative Study of the Influence of the Electrode Configuration with Sn and Bi-Based Electrocatalysts. Molecules 2020; 25:E4457.

Abstract
Climate change has become one of the most important challenges in the 21st century, and the electroreduction of CO2 to value-added products has gained increasing importance in recent years. In this context, formic acid or formate are interesting products because they could be used as raw materials in several industries as well as promising fuels in fuel cells. Despite the great number of studies published in the field of the electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 to formic acid/formate working with electrocatalysts of different nature and electrode configurations, few of them are focused on the comparison of different electrocatalyst materials and electrode configurations. Therefore, this work aims at presenting a rigorous and comprehensive comparative assessment of different experimental data previously published after many years of research in different working electrode configurations and electrocatalysts in a continuous mode with a single pass of the inputs through the reactor. Thus, the behavior of the CO2 electroreduction to formate is compared operating with Sn and Bi-based materials under Gas Diffusion Electrodes (GDEs) and Catalyst Coated Membrane Electrodes (CCMEs) configurations. Considering the same electrocatalyst, the use of CCMEs improves the performance in terms of formate concentration and energy consumption. Nevertheless, higher formate rates can be achieved with GDEs because they allow operation at higher current densities of up to 300 mA·cm-2. Bi-based-GDEs outperformed Sn-GDEs in all the figures of merit considered. The comparison also highlights that in CCME configuration, the employ of Bi-based-electrodes enhanced the behavior of the process, increasing the formate concentration by 35% and the Faradaic efficiency by 11%.

Abstract
Ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) materials have attracted considerable attention for their unique physicochemical properties and promising applications; however, preparation of freestanding ultrathin 2D noble metal remains a significant challenge. Here, for the first time, we report use of a wet-chemical method to synthesize partially hydroxylated ultrathin Ir nanosheets (Ir-NSs) of only five to six atomic layers’ thickness. Detailed analysis indicates that the growth confinement effect of carbon monoxide and the partially hydroxylated surface play a critical role in formation of the ultrathin structure. The ultrathin Ir-NSs exhibit excellent performance for both the hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction in a wide pH range, outperforming the state-of-the-art Pt/C and IrO2, respectively. Density-functional theory calculations reveal that the partial hydroxylation not only enhances the surface electron transfer between Ir-sites and intermediate O-species, but also guarantees efficient initial activation of bond cleavage of H-O-H for first-step H2O splitting. This, ultimately, breaks through barriers to full water splitting, with efficient electron transfer essentially maintained.

Abstract
We report the simple synthesis of bismuthene nanosheets (BiNS) by ionic liquid assisted grinding exfoliation, followed by size selection sequential centrifugation steps for the first time. The exfoliation process results in the formation of self-assembled spherule-like superstructures with abundant edge sites, which are able to catalyze the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) via a two-electron pathway, with a higher efficiency than the bulk Bismuth. We rationalize the enhanced ORR activity of the BiNS to: (i) the presence of 1 dimensional topological edge states, which provide strong conduction channels for electron hopping between the bismuth layers and (ii) the more active role of edge sites in facilitating O2 adsorption and dissociation of O–O bonds compared to the basal plane. The present study provides a pathway for employing 2D topological insulators as a new class of electrocatalysts for clean energy applications. Bismuthene nanosheets were synthesized by ionic liquid assisted grinding exfoliation. Solvent evaporation led to the formation of self-assembled nanospherules. The electron rich edges of the nanosheets enhanced the oxygen reduction reaction.![]()
