Abstract
In the present study, we developed an amino-polyindole modified phosphorus doped graphitic carbon nitride nanomaterial (APIN/P-g-C3N4) based immunosensing biochip for Serum amyloid A (SAA) biomarker towards early diagnosis of Swine flu. The P-g-C3N4 was synthesis via polycondensation and functionalized with APIN. Further, the biochip was fabricated by modifying the working area of SPE with APIN/P-g-C3N4 using drop cast method, APIN introduced the larger loading of -NH2 group moieties onto P-g-C3N4 matrix and benefitted to reinforced the biomolecules via covalent linkages. The monoclonal anti-SAA was conjugated onto APIN/P-g-C3N4/SPE using EDC-NHS chemistry and BSA was added for non-specific site blocking. The structural, chemical, composition and morphological characteristics of the synthesized, functionalized nanomaterial and fabricated biochips were investigated by XRD, XPS, FT-IR spectroscopy, SEM, FE-SEM and TEM techniques. Further, the electrochemical characterization and response studies of fabricated biochip were analyzed using the CV and DPV techniques. Based on the analytical performance of the proposed immunosensing biochip i.e. BSA/anti-SAA/APIN/P-g-C3N4/SPE, it is capable to detect SAA protein with ultra sensitivity of 79.5 μA log (mL ng-1) cm-2, ultralow limit of detection of 5 ng mL-1 and wider linear detection range of 5 ng mL-1-500 μg mL-1 with quick response time of 10 min. Moreover, the fabricated immunosensing biochips was used to analyse SAA protein in spiked serum samples and the achieved results demonstrated the good agreement with the electrochemical response observed in standard SAA protein samples in analytical solution. The proposed biochip can provide insights for developing a wide range of clinical screening tools for detecting various contagious diseases.

Abstract
Carbon nitrides, a distinguished class of metal-free catalytic materials, have presented a good potential for chemical transformations and are expected to become prominent materials for organocatalysis. This is largely possible due to their low cost, exceptional thermal and chemical stability, non-toxicity, ease of functionalization, porosity development, etc. Especially, the carbon nitrides with increased porosity and nitrogen contents are more versatile than their bulk counterparts for catalysis. These N-rich carbon nitrides are discussed in the earlier parts of the review. Later, the review highlights the role of such carbon nitride materials for the various organic catalytic reactions including Knoevenagel condensation, oxidation, hydrogenation, esterification, transesterification, cycloaddition, and hydrolysis. The recently emerging concepts in carbon nitride-based organocatalysis have been given special attention. In each of the sections, the structure-property relationship of the materials was discussed and related to their catalysis action. Relevant comparisons with other catalytic materials are also discussed to realize their real potential value. The perspective, challenges, and future directions are also discussed. The overall objective of this review is to provide up-to-date information on new developments in carbon nitride-based organic catalysis reactions that could see them rising as prominent catalytic materials in the future.

Abstract
Photoreduction of CO2 into solar fuels has received great interest, but suffers from low catalytic efficiency and poor selectivity. Herein, two single-Cu-atom catalysts with unique Cu configurations in phosphorus-doped carbon nitride (PCN), namely, Cu1 N3 @PCN and Cu1 P3 @PCN were fabricated via selective phosphidation, and tested in visible light-driven CO2 reduction by H2 O without sacrificial agents. Cu1 N3 @PCN was exclusively active for CO production with a rate of 49.8 μmolCO gcat -1 h-1 , outperforming most polymeric carbon nitride (C3 N4 ) based catalysts, while Cu1 P3 @PCN preferably yielded H2 . Experimental and theoretical analysis suggested that doping P in C3 N4 by replacing a corner C atom upshifted the d-band center of Cu in Cu1 N3 @PCN close to the Fermi level, which boosted the adsorption and activation of CO2 on Cu1 N3 , making Cu1 N3 @PCN efficiently convert CO2 to CO. In contrast, Cu1 P3 @PCN with a much lower Cu 3d electron energy exhibited negligible CO2 adsorption, thereby preferring H2 formation via photocatalytic H2 O splitting.

Abstract
Selective oxidation of CH bonds is one of the most important reactions in organic synthesis. However, activation of the α-CH bond of ethylbenzene by use of photocatalysis-generated superoxide anions (O2 •- ) remains a challenge. Herein, the formation of individual Fe atoms on polymeric carbon nitride (CN), that activates O2 to create O2 •- for facilitating the reaction of ethylbenzene to form acetophenone, is demonstrated. By utilizing density functional theory and materials characterization techniques, it is shown that individual Fe atoms are coordinated to four N atoms of CN and the resultant low-spin Fe-N4 system (t2g 6 eg 0 ) is not only a great adsorption site for oxygen molecules, but also allows for fast transfer of electrons generated in the CN framework to adsorbed O2 , producing O2 •- . The oxidation reaction of ethylbenzene triggered by O2 •- ions turns out to have a high conversion rate of 99% as well as an acetophenone selectivity of 99%, which can be ascribed to a novel reaction pathway that is different from the conventional route involving hydroxyl radicals and the production of phenethyl alcohol. Furthermore, it possesses great potential for other CH activation reactions besides ethylbenzene oxidation.

Abstract
Ion implantation has been widely used in biomaterials, alloys, and semiconductors modification. Basing on the studying of trapping states in the equilibrium state, we investigate the ultrafast carrier dynamics of SnSe/TiO2and SnSe/Li/TiO2heterojunctions under Li+implantation by the real-time time-dependent density functional theory. The special type II band alignment and Li+interfacial states in SnSe/TiO2heterojunction effectively facilitate the exciton dissociation in a benign process and suppresses the interfacial nonradiative recombination. By monitoring the instantaneous ion-solid interaction energy, electronic stropping power and the excitation electron evolution, we find that atomic reconstruction introduced by the Li inserting layer changes the charge density and crystal potential field in the injection channel, and thus weakens the violent oscillation force and electron excitation on the Ti and O atoms. There exists a weaker and shorter charge excitation at the interface for SnSe/Li/TiO2implantation system, which suggests that the Li ion layer weakens the e-ph coupling between the interface electrons and the moving ion. Meanwhile, only the hot electrons are produced in the interface region, reducing the probability of carrier recombination. These results provide an understanding for the behavior of carriers in SnSe based heterojunctions and the electron-phonon coupling mechanism at the phase/grain boundary under ion implantation.

Abstract
This study fabricated an efficient P and Fe co-doping graphitic carbon nitride catalyst (Fe- CN/P) by thermal polymerization of melamine, FeCl3, and 2-hydroxyphosphonoacetic acid (HPAA) mixture. The Fe-CN/P catalyst exhibited much better tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) degradation performance than that of single doping and neat CN. Various characterizations indicated that the introduction of HPAA significantly increased the specific surface area of CN and improved charge separation as well as transfer efficiency. Based on Fe 2p XPS analysis and indirect determination of hydroxyl radical (·OH) content, the separated photogenerated electrons accelerated the reduction of Fe(III) and activated photo-Fenton reaction, resulting in more ·OH species generation. The effect of pH value, catalyst dosages, H2O2 concentration, the type of cations and anions as well as water matrices on the degradation of TCH by Fe-CN/P was systematically investigated. The main degradation pathways of TCH were proposed according to the LC-MS intermediates detection and DFT calculation. The results indicated that reactive oxide species (ROS) were more likely to attack the atoms with high Fukui index (f0). This work provides new ideas for adjusting the morphology and electronic structure of CN to enhance its photo-Fenton catalytic activity.

Abstract
The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are important processes for various energy devices, including polymer electrolyte fuel cells, rechargeable metal-air batteries, and water electrolyzers. We herein report the preparation of a rare metal-free and highly efficient ORR/OER electrocatalyst by calcination of a mixture of blood meal and ascidian-derived cellulose nanofibers. The obtained carbon alloys showed high ORR/OER performances and proved to be promising electrocatalysts. The carbon alloys synthesized entirely from biomass resources not only lead to a new electrocatalyst fabrication process but also contribute to CO2 reduction and the realization of a good life-cycle assessment value in fabrication of a sustainable energy device.

Yan X, Ha Y, Wu R. Binder-Free Air Electrodes for Rechargeable Zinc-Air Batteries: Recent Progress and Future Perspectives. SMALL METHODS 2021; 5:e2000827. [PMID: 34927848 DOI: 10.1002/smtd.202000827] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2020] [Revised: 11/17/2020] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Designing an efficient air electrode is of great significance for the performance of rechargeable zinc (Zn)-air batteries. However, the most widely used approach to fabricate an air electrode involves polymeric binders, which may increase the interface resistance and block electrocatalytic active sites, thus deteriorating the performance of the battery. Therefore, binder-free air electrodes have attracted more and more research interests in recent years. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the latest advancements in designing and fabricating binder-free air electrodes for electrically rechargeable Zn-air batteries. Beginning with the fundamentals of Zn-air batteries and recently reported bifunctional active catalysts, self-supported air electrodes for liquid-state and flexible solid-state Zn-air batteries are then discussed in detail. Finally, the conclusion and the challenges faced for binder-free air electrodes in Zn-air batteries are also highlighted.

Abstract
Metal-air batteries (MABs) and reversible fuel cells (RFCs) rely on the bifunctional oxygen catalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Finding efficient bifunctional oxygen catalysts is the ultimate goal and it has attracted a great deal of attention. The dilemma is that a good ORR catalyst is not necessarily efficient for OER, and vice versa. Thus, the development of a new type of bifunctional oxygen catalysts should ensure that the catalysts exhibit high activity for both OER and ORR. Composites with multicomponents for active centers supported on highly conductive matrices could be able to meet the challenges and offering new opportunities. In this Review, the evolution of bifunctional catalysts is summarized and discussed aiming to deliver high-performance bifunctional catalysts with low overpotentials.

Abstract
For the first time, graphene-supported N-doped carbon (G@NC) with a high degree of N doping was synthesized by in situ self-assembly of a glucaminium-based ionic liquid on pristine graphene under hydrothermal conditions. This 2D, metal-free nanohybrid exhibited much higher catalytic activity than most reported metal-free catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and even state-of-the-art Ir- and Ru-based catalysts because the high content of graphitic N greatly increased the number of OER-active sites, the pristine graphene significantly promoted the OER activity of the C sites adjacent to the graphitic N atoms, and N-doped graphitic carbon remarkably enhanced the charge-transfer rate. This work not only creates a facile and economical approach to controllably fabricate pristine-graphene-supported carbon with a high N-doping level for the development of highly efficient metal-free OER catalysts but also provides insight into the mechanisms for both the in situ self-assembly and the high OER catalytic activity of G@NC.

Abstract
Graphitic carbon nitride materials (CNs) have emerged as suitable photocatalysts and heterogeneous catalysts for various reactions thanks to their tunable band gap, suitable energy-band position, high stability under harsh chemical conditions, and low cost. However, the utilization of CN in photoelectrochemical (PEC) and photoelectronic devices is still at an early stage owing to the difficulties in depositing high-quality and homogenous CN layer on substrates, its wide band gap, poor charge-separation efficiency, and low electronic conductivity. In this Minireview, we discuss the synthetic pathways for the preparation of various structures of CN on substrates and their underlying photophysical properties and current photoelectrochemical performance. The main challenges for CN incorporation into PEC cell are described, together with possible routes to overcome the standing limitations toward the integration of CN materials in PEC and other photoelectronic devices.

Abstract
Zinc-air batteries (ZABs) are vulnerable to the ambient environment (e.g., humidity and CO2 ), and have serious selfdischarge issues, resulting in a short shelf life. To overcome these challenges, a near-neutral quaternary ammonium (QA) functionalized polyvinyl alcohol electrolyte membrane (different from conventional alkali-type membranes) has been developed. QA functionalization leads to the formation of interconnected nanochannels by creating hydrophilic/-phobic separations at the nanoscale. These nanochannels selectively transport OH- ions with a reduced migration barrier, while inhibiting [Zn(NH3 )6 ]2+ crossover. Owing to the superior water retention ability and enhanced chemical stability of the membrane, the solid-state zinc-air battery (SZAB) displays outstanding flexibility, a promising cycle lifetime, and a large volumetric energy density. More importantly, the self-discharge rate of SZAB is depressed to less than 7 % per month, and the fully dehydrated SZAB could recover its rechargeability upon replenishment of the solution of NH4 Cl.

Abstract
High activity and stability are crucial for the practical use of electrocatalysts in fuel cells, metal-air batteries, and water electrolysis, including the oxygen reduction reaction, hydrogen evolution reaction, oxygen evolution reaction, and oxidation reactions of formic acid and alcohols. Electrocatalysts based on nitrogen-containing carbon (N-C) materials show promise in catalyzing these reactions; however, there is no systematic review of strategies for the engineering of active and stable N-C-based electrocatalysts. Herein, a comprehensive comparison of recently reported N-C-based electrocatalysts regarding both electrocatalytic activity and long-term stability is presented. In the first part of this review, the relationships between the electrocatalytic reactions and selection of the element to modify the N-C-based materials are discussed. Afterwards, synthesis methods for N-C-based electrocatalysts are summarized, and strategies for the synthesis of highly stable N-C-based electrocatalysts are presented. Multiple tables containing data on crucial parameters for both electrocatalytic activity and stability are displayed in this review. Finally, constructing M-Nx moieties is proposed as the most promising engineering strategy for stable N-C-based electrocatalysts.
