Abstract
High tap density electrodes play a vital role in developing rechargeable batteries with high volumetric capacities, however, developing advanced electrodes with satisfied capacity, excellent structural stability, and achieving the resulted batteries with a high initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) and good rate capability with long lifespan simultaneously, are still an intractable challenge. Herein, an ultrahigh ICE of 94.1% and stable cycling of carbon-free iron selenides anode is enabled with a high tap density of 2.57 g cm-3 up to 4000 cycles at 5 A g-1 through strain-modulating by constructing a homologous heterostructure. Systematical characterization and theoretical calculation show that the self-adaptive homologous heterointerface alleviates the stress of the iron selenide anodes during cycling processes and subsequently improves the stability of the assembled batteries. Additionally, the well-formed homologous heterostructure also contributes to the rapid Na+ diffusion kinetic, increased charge transfer, and good reversibility of the transformation reactions, endowing the appealing rate capability of carbon-free iron selenides. The proposed design strategy provides new insight and inspiration to aid in the ongoing quest for advanced electrode materials with high tap densities and excellent stability.

Se-p Orbitals Induced "Strong d-d Orbitals Interaction" Enable High Reversibility of Se-Rich ZnSe/MnSe@C Electrode as Excellent Host for Sodium-Ion Storage. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2308262.

Abstract
The heterostructure of transition-metal chalcogenides is a promising approach to boost alkali ion storage due to fast charge kinetics and reduction of activation energy. However, cycling performance is a paramount challenge that is suffering from poor reversibility. Herein, it is reported that Se-rich particles can chemically interact with local hexagonal ZnSe/MnSe@C heterostructure environment, leading to effective ions insertion/extraction, enabling high reversibility. Enlightened by theoretical understanding, Se-rich particles endow high intrinsic conductivities in term of low energy barriers (1.32 eV) compared with those without Se-rich particles (1.50 eV) toward the sodiation process. Moreover, p orbitals of Se-rich particles may actively participate and further increase the electronegativity that pushes the Mn d orbitals (dxy and dx2-y2) and donate their electrons to dxz and dyz orbitals, manifesting strong d-d orbitals interaction between ZnSe and MnSe. Such fundamental interaction will adopt a well-stable conducive electronic bridge, eventually, charges are easily transferred from ZnSe to MnSe in the heterostructure during sodiation/desodiation. Therefore, the optimized Se-rich ZnSe/MnSe@C electrode delivered high capacity of 576 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 after 100 cycles and 384 mAh g-1 at 1 A g-1 after 2500 cycles, respectively. In situ and ex situ measurements further indicate the integrity and reversibility of the electrode materials upon charging/discharging.

Abstract
To improve ion transport kinetics and electronic conductivity between the different phases in sodium/lithium-ion battery (LIB/SIB) anodes, heterointerface engineering is considered as a promising strategy due to the strong built-in electric field. However, the lattice mismatch and defects in the interphase structure can lead to large grain boundary resistance, reducing the ion transport kinetics and electronic conductivity. Herein, monometallic selenide Fe3Se4-Fe7Se8 semi-coherent heterointerface embedded in 3D connected Nitrogen-doped carbon yolk-shell matrix (Fe3Se4-Fe7Se8@NC) is obtained via an in situ phase transition process. Such semi-coherent heterointerface between Fe3Se4 and Fe7Se8 shows the matched interfacial lattice and strong built-in electric field, resulting in the low interface impedance and fast reaction kinetics. Moreover, the yolk-shell structure is designed to confine all monometallic selenide Fe3Se4-Fe7Se8 semi-coherent heterointerface nanoparticles, improving the structural stability and inhibiting the volume expansion effect. In particular, the 3D carbon bridge between multi-yolks shell structure improves the electronic conductivity and shortens the ion transport path. Therefore, the efficient reversible pseudocapacitance and electrochemical conversion reaction are enabled by the Fe3Se4-Fe7Se8@NC, leading to the high specific capacity of 439 mAh g-1 for SIB and 1010 mAh g-1 for LIB. This work provides a new strategy for constructing heterointerface of the anode for secondary batteries.

Abstract
Manganese sulfide (MnS) is a promising converion-type anode for sodium storage, owing to the virtues of high theoretical capacity, coupled with it crustal abundance and cost-effectiveness. Nevertheless, MnS suffers from inadequate electronic conductivity, sluggish Na+ reaction kinetics and considerable volume variation during discharge/charge process, thereby impeding its rate capability and capacity retention. Herein, a novel lamellar heterostructured composite of Fe-doped MnS nanoparticles/positively charged reduced graphene oxide (Fe-MnS/PG) was synthesized to overcome these issues. The Fe-doping can accelerate the ion/electron transfer, endowing fast electrochemical kinetics of MnS. Meanwhile, the graphene space confinement with strong MnSC bond interactions can facilite the interfacial electron transfer, hamper volume expansion and aggregation of MnS nanoparticles, stabilizing the structural integrity, thus improving the Na+ storage reversibility and cyclic stability. Combining the synergistic effect of Fe-doping and space confinement with strong MnSC bond interactions, the as-produced Fe-MnS/PG anode presents a remarkable capacity of 567 mAh/g at 0.1 A/g and outstanding rate performance (192 mAh/g at 10 A/g). Meanwhile, the as-assembled sodium-ion capacitor (SIC) can yield a high energy density of 119 Wh kg-1 and a maximum power density of 17500 W kg-1, with capacity retention of 77 % at 1 A/g after 5000 cycles. This work offers a promising strategy to develop MnS-based practical SICs with high energy and long lifespan, and paves the way for fabricating advanced anode materials.

Abstract
The current work describes a facile synthesis of spinel-type ZnCo2O4 along with an additional phase, Co3O4, by simply maintaining a non-stoichiometric ratio of Zn and Co precursors. Pure ZnCo2O4 and Co3O4 were also synthesized using the same method to compare results. The obtained morphologies of samples show that small-sized nanoparticles are interconnected and form a porous nanosheet-like structure. When used as anode materials for Li-ion batteries, the ZnCo2O4/Co3O4 nanocomposite electrode exhibits a highly stable charge capacity of 1146.2 mA h g-1 at 0.5C after 350 cycles, which is superior to those of other two pure electrodes, which can be attributed to its optimum porosity, synergistic effect of ZnCo2O4 and Co3O4, increased active sites for Li+ ion diffusion, and higher electrical conductivity. Although the pure Co3O4 electrode displayed a much higher rate capability than the ZnCo2O4/Co3O4 nanocomposite electrode at all investigated current rates, the Co3O4 morphology apparently could not withstand long-term cycling, and the electrode became pulverized due to the repeated volume expansion/contraction, resulting in a rapid decrease in the capacity.

Abstract
Development of high-performance metal sulfides anode materials is a great challenge for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). In this work, a cobalt-based imidazolate framework (ZIF-67) were firstly synthesized and applied as precursor. After the successive surface etching, ion exchange and sulfidation processes, the final cobalt-vanadium sulfide yolk-shell nanocages were obtained (CoS2/VS4@NC) with VS4 shell and CoS2 yolk encapsulated into nitrogen doped carbon frameworks. This yolk-shell nanocage structure effectively increases the specific surface area and provides enough space for inhibiting the volume change during charge/discharge processes. Besides, the nitrogen doped carbon skeleton greatly improves the ionic conductivity and facilitates ion transport. When used as the anode materials for SIBs, the yolk-shell nanocages of CoS2/VS4@NC electrode exhibits excellent rate capability and stable cycle performance. Notably, it displays a long-term cycling stability with excellent capacity of 417.28 mA h g-1 after 700 cycles at a high current density of 5 A/g. This developed approach here provides a new route for the design and synthesis of various yolk-shell nanocages nanomaterials from enormous MOFs with multitudinous compositions and morphologies and can be extended to the application into other secondary batteries and energy storage fields.

Abstract
As a pioneering battery technology, even though sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are safe, non-flammable, and capable of exhibiting better temperature endurance performance than lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), because of lower energy density and larger ionic size, they are not amicable for large-scale applications. Generally, the electrochemical storage performance of a secondary battery can be improved by monitoring the composition and morphology of electrode materials. Because more is the intricacy of a nanostructured composite electrode material, more electrochemical storage applications would be expected. Despite the conventional methods suitable for practical production, the synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) would offer enormous opportunities for next-generation battery applications by delicately systematizing the structure and composition at the molecular level to store sodium ions with larger sizes compared with lithium ions. Here, the review comprehensively discusses the progress of nanostructured MOFs and their derivatives applied as negative and positive electrode materials for effective sodium storage in SIBs. The commercialization goal has prompted the development of MOFs and their derivatives as electrode materials, before which the synthesis and mechanism for MOF-based SIB electrodes with improved sodium storage performance are systematically discussed. Finally, the existing challenges, possible perspectives, and future opportunities will be anticipated.

Abstract
Multi-shelled hollow metal-organic frameworks (MH-MOFs) are highly promising as electrode materials due to their impressive surface area and efficient mass transfer capabilities. However, the fabrication of MH-MOFs has remained a formidable challenge. In this study, two types of double-shelled open hollow Prussian blue analogues, one with divalent iron (DHPBA-Fe(II)) and the other with trivalent iron (DHPBA-Fe(III)), through an innovative inner-outer growth strategy are successfully developed. The growth mechanism is found to involve lattice matching growth and ligand exchange processes. Subsequently, DHPBA-Fe(II) and DHPBA-Fe(III) are employed as cathodes in aqueous Zn-ion batteries. Significantly, DHPBA-Fe(II) demonstrated exceptional performance, exhibiting a capacity of 92.5 mAh g-1 at 1 A g-1, and maintaining remarkable stability over an astounding 10 000 cycles. This research is poised to catalyze further exploration into the fabrication techniques of MH-MOFs and offer fresh insights into the intricate interplay between electronic structure and battery performance.

Abstract
In this work, we have developed an efficient method to synthesize Prussian blue by self-decomposition of sodium ferrocyanide in acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer solution. This buffer solution-based proton pool provides a relatively low and stable concentration of protons for the slow decomposition of sodium ferrocyanide to get highly crystalline and sodium rich Prussian blue, which can be used as the cathode for high-performance sodium-ion batteries.

Abstract
Antibiotic residues in the environment pose a serious threat to ecosystems and human health. Therefore, it is important to develop sensitive and rapid in situ detection methods. In this work, the designed nanozymes, with excellent four enzyme activities, were proved to be constituted of unique hollow nanocage structures (CoZnSe@CN HCs). Based on the peroxidase-like enzymes, a portable colorimetric sensor was constructed for the on-site determination of tetracycline (TC) in real samples. The linear range of TC detection was 0.1-100 μM, and the detection limit was 0.02 μM. At the same time, colorimetric detection and smartphones have also been combined for on-site colorimetric detection of TC. In-depth exploration of the detection mechanism showed that TC could be bound with the material, inhibiting the production of oxidized 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine. The sensor was also used for the detection of TC in environmental soil and water samples. This study can provide an intelligent detection method for environmental monitoring.

Cobalt Oxide 2D Nanosheets Formed at a Polarized Liquid|Liquid Interface toward High-Performance Li-Ion and Na-Ion Battery Anodes. ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES 2023; 15:58320-58332. [PMID: 38052006 PMCID: PMC10739576 DOI: 10.1021/acsami.3c11795] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/22/2023] [Indexed: 12/07/2023]
Abstract
Cobalt oxide (Co3O4)-based nanostructures have the potential as low-cost materials for lithium-ion (Li-ion) and sodium-ion (Na-ion) battery anodes with a theoretical capacity of 890 mAh/g. Here, we demonstrate a novel method for the production of Co3O4 nanoplatelets. This involves the growth of flower-like cobalt oxyhydroxide (CoOOH) nanostructures at a polarized liquid|liquid interface, followed by conversion to flower-like Co3O4 via calcination. Finally, sonication is used to break up the flower-like Co3O4 nanostructures into two-dimensional (2D) nanoplatelets with lateral sizes of 20-100 nm. Nanoplatelets of Co3O4 can be easily mixed with carbon nanotubes to create nanocomposite anodes, which can be used for Li-ion and Na-ion battery anodes without any additional binder or conductive additive. The resultant electrodes display impressive low-rate capacities (at 125 mA/g) of 1108 and 1083 mAh/g, for Li-ion and Na-ion anodes, respectively, and stable cycling ability over >200 cycles. Detailed quantitative rate analysis clearly shows that Li-ion-storing anodes charge roughly five times faster than Na-ion-storing anodes.

Abstract
Low-cost and safe batteries are considered to be promising energy-storage systems. Here, a metal organic framework (MOF)-derived octahedral Cu1.95S@CoS2 composite is developed as a high-performance cathode of aluminium-ion (Al-ion) batteries. CoS2 nanoparticles on Cu1.95S provide active sites, making AlCl4- intercalation/deintercalation highly reversible, and reducing polarization. Cycling at 0.5 A g-1, Cu1.95S@CoS2 maintains stable capacities of 136.6 and 122.4 mA h g-1 after 200 cycles at room temperature and -10 °C, respectively. Stable rate-performance is also achieved. These findings will accelerate the application of Al-ion batteries and MOF-derived energy-storage composites.

Abstract
The high specific capacity of transition metal sulfides (TMSs) opens up a promising new development direction for lithium-ion batteries with high energy storage. However, the poor conductivity and serious volume expansion during charge and discharge hinder their further development. In this work, trimetallic sulfide Zn-Co-Fe-S@nitrogen-doped carbon (Zn-Co-Fe-S@N-C) polyhedron composite with a core-shell structure is synthesized through a simple self-template method using ZnCoFe-ZIF as precursor, followed by a dopamine surface polymerization process and sulfidation during high-temperature calcination. The obvious space between the internal core and the external shell of the Zn-Co-Fe-S@N-C composites can effectively alleviate the volume expansion and shorten the diffusion path of Li ions during charge and discharge cycles. The nitrogen-doped carbon shell not only significantly improves the electrical conductivity of the material, but also strengthens the structural stability of the material. The synergistic effect between polymetallic sulfides improves the electrochemical reactivity. When used as an anode in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), the prepared Zn-Co-Fe-S@N-C composite exhibits a high specific capacity retention (966.6 mA h g-1 after 100 cycles at current rate of 100 mA g-1) and good cyclic stability (499.17 mA h g-1 after 120 cycles at current rate of 2000 mA g-1).

Abstract
Transition metal tellurides (TMTes) have received extensive attention for high specific energy sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to their high volumetric specific capacity. However, the continuous capacity attenuation arising from the huge volumetric strain during sodiation/desodiation impedes practical applications. Here, we report a "sandwich-type" carbon confinement strategy that entraps cobalt ditelluride (CoTe2) nanocrystals between two carbon layers. Porous cellulose-derived fibres were employed as the inner carbon framework to construct fast conductive circuits and provide an abundant site for anchoring CoTe2 nanocrystals. Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)-derived carbon layers act as carbon armour to encapsulate CoTe2 nanocrystals, inhibiting their volume change and structural pulverization during repeated sodium intercalation/deintercalation. Benefiting from the exquisite structural design, the N-C@CoTe2@C electrode exhibits excellent cycling stability for over 3000 cycles at 2.0 A g-1 and rate performance (113.8 mA h g-1 at 5.0 A g-1). Moreover, ex situ XRD/TEM and kinetic tests revealed a multistep conversion reaction mechanism and a battery-capacitive dual-model Na-storage process. This work provides a new perspective on the development of low-cost and straightforward techniques for fabricating long-life commercial SIB anode materials.

Abstract
Vanadium selenium has gained attention as a potential anode for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to the tunable crystal structure, effective channels for Na+ diffusion, and high theoretical specific capacity. However, the pursuit of vanadium selenium remains an enormous challenge. Herein, we demonstrated that V2Se9 nanosheets could be fabricated facilely and efficiently via a one-pot synthesis method with the careful selection of the solvent/surfactant. The V2Se9 anode have demonstrated excellent electrochemical performance for SIBs. An intercalation and conversion mechanism of Na-storage in V2Se9 were clarified by ex situ X-ray diffraction. This work develops an effective strategy to fabricate transition metal chalcogenides for high-performance sodium storage.

Abstract
Due to the relatively high capacity and lower cost, transition metal sulfides (TMS) as anode show promising potential in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Herein, a binary metal sulfide hybrid consisting of carbon encapsulated CoS/Cu2 S nanocages (CoS/Cu2 S@C-NC) is constructed. The interlocked hetero-architecture filled with conductive carbon accelerates the Na+ /e- transfer, thus leading to improved electrochemical kinetics. Also the protective carbon layer can provide better volume accommondation upon charging/discharging. As a result, the battery with CoS/Cu2 S@C-NC as anode displays a high capacity of 435.3 mAh g-1 after 1000 cycles at 2.0 A g-1 (≈3.4 C). Under a higher rate of 10.0 A g-1 (≈17 C), a capacity of as high as 347.2 mAh g-1 is still remained after long 2300 cycles. The capacity decay per cycle is only 0.017%. The battery also exhibits a better temperature tolerance at 50 and -5 °C. A low internal impedance analyzed by X-ray diffraction patterns and galvanostatic intermittent titration technique, narrow band gap, and high density of states obtained by first-principle calculations of the binary sulfides, ensure the rapid Na+ /e- transport. The long-cycling-life SIB using binary metal sulfide hybrid nanocages as anode shows promising applications in versatile electronic devices.

Abstract
Sodium-ion hybrid capacitors (SIHCs) in principle can utilize the advantages of batteries and supercapacitors and satisfy the cost demand of large-scale energy storage systems, but the sluggish kinetics and low capacities of its anode and cathode are yet to be overcome. Here, a strategy is reported to realize high-performance dual-carbon SIHCs using 3D porous graphitic carbon cathode and anode materials derived from metal-azolate framework-6s (MAF-6s). First, MAF-6s, with or without urea loading, are pyrolyzed to synthesize MAF-derived carbons (MDCs). Then, cathode materials are synthesized via the controlled KOH-assisted pyrolysis of MDCs (K-MDCs). K-MDCs, 3D graphitic carbons, resulting in a record-high surface area (5214 m2 g-1 ) being ≈four-fold higher than pristine MAF-6, oxygen-doped sites for high capacity, rich mesopores affording fast ion transport, and high capacity retention over 5000 charge/discharge cycles. Moreover, 3D porous MDC anode materials are synthesized from N-containing MAF-6 and exhibited to allow cycle stability over 5000 cycles. Furthermore, dual-carbon MDC//K-MDC SIHCs with different loadings (3 to 6 mg cm-2 ) are demonstrated to achieve high energy densities exceeding those of sodium-ion batteries and supercapacitors. Additionally, it allows an ultrafast-chargeable high power density of 20000 W kg-1 and robust cycle stability overcoming those of a typical battery.

Abstract
Transition metal sulfides (TMSs) are considered as promising anodes for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to their high theoretical capacity and low cost. However, TMSs suffer from massive volume expansion, slow sodium-ion diffusion kinetics, and poor electrical conductivity, which severely restrict their practical application. Herein, we design self-supporting Co9S8 nanoparticles embedded carbon nanosheets/carbon nanofibers (Co9S8@CNSs/CNFs) as anode materials for SIBs. The electrospun carbon nanofibers (CNFs) provide continuous conductive networks to accelerate the ion and electron diffusion/transport kinetics, while MOFs-derived carbon nanosheets (CNSs) buffer the volume variation of Co9S8, consequently improving the cycle stability. Benefitting from the unique design and pseudocapacitive features, Co9S8@CNSs/CNFs deliver a stable capacity of 516 mAh g-1 at 200 mA g-1 and a reversible capacity of 313 mAh g-1 after 1500 cycles at 2 A g-1. Note that, it also displays excellent sodium storage performance when assembled into a full cell. The rational design and excellent electrochemical properties endow Co9S8@CNSs/CNFs with the potential stepping into commercial SIBs.

Abstract
Transition-metal chalcogenide nanostructures provide a unique material platform to engineer next-generation energy storage devices such as lithium-ion, sodium-ion, and potassium-ion batteries and flexible supercapacitors. The transition-metal chalcogenide nanocrystals and thin films have enhanced electroactive sites for redox reactions and hierarchical flexibility of structure and electronic properties in the multinary compositions. They also consist of more earth-abundant elements. These properties make them attractive and more viable new electrode materials for energy storage devices compared to the traditional materials. This review highlights the recent advances in chalcogenide-based electrodes for batteries and flexible supercapacitors. The viability and structure-property relation of these materials are explored. The use of various chalcogenide nanocrystals supported on carbonaceous substrates, two-dimensional transition metal chalcogenides, and novel MXene-based chalcogenide heterostructures as electrode materials to improve the electrochemical performance of lithium-ion batteries is discussed. The sodium-ion and potassium-ion batteries offer a more viable alternative to lithium-ion technology as they consist of readily available source materials. Application of various transition metal chalcogenides such as MoS2, MoSe2, VS2, and SnSx, composite materials, and heterojunction bimetallic nanosheets composed of multi-metals as electrodes to enhance the long-term cycling stability, rate capability, and structural strength to counteract the large volume expansion during the ion intercalation/deintercalation processes is highlighted. The promising performances of layered chalcogenides and various chalcogenide nanowire compositions as electrodes for flexible supercapacitors are also discussed in detail. The review also details the progress made in new chalcogenide nanostructures and layered mesostructures for energy storage applications.

Bonding iron chalcogenides in a hierarchical structure for high-stability sodium storage. J Colloid Interface Sci 2023; 637:251-261.

Abstract
Owing to price-boom and low-reserve of Lithium ion batteries (LIBs), cost-cutting and well-stocked sodium ion batteries (SIBs) attract a lot of attention, aiming to develop an effective energy storage and conversion equipment. As a typical anode for SIBs, Iron sulfide (FeS) is difficult to maintain the high theoretical capacity. Structural instability and inherent low conductivity limit the cyclic and rate performance of FeS. Herein, hierarchical architecture of FeS-FeSe2 coated with nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) is obtained by single-step solvothermal method and two-stage high-temperature treatments. Specifically, lattice imperfections provided by heterogeneous interfaces increase the Na+ storage sites and fasten ion/electron transfer. Synergistic effect induced by the hierarchical architecture effectively enhances the electrochemical activity and reduces the resistance, which contributes to the transfer kinetics of Na+. In addition, the phenomenon that heterogeneous interfaces provide more active site and extra migration Na+ path is also proved by density functional theory (DFT). As an anode for SIBs, FeS-FeSe2/NC (FSSe/C) delivers highly reversible capacity (704.5 mAh·g-1 after 120 cycles at 0.2 A·g-1), excellent rate performance (326.3 mAh·g-1 at 12 A·g-1) and long-lasting durability (492.3 mAh·g-1 after 1000 cycles at 4 A·g-1 with 100 % capacity retention). Notably, the full battery, assembled with FSSe/C and Na3V2(PO4)3/C (NVP/C), delivers reversible capacity of 252.1 mAh·g-1 after 300 cycles at 1 A·g-1. This work provides a facile method to construct a hierarchical architecture anode for high-performance SIBs.

Abstract
Design hybrid metal sulfides-based anode materials is one of the most effective approaches to improve the performance of sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, owing to the huge volume expansion, the capacity of sulfide-based anode will decay significantly after repeated charge/discharge processes. Herein, we reported the successful demonstration of anode material based on concaved NiS2@CoS2 nanocube (NCSC) via a chemical etching strategy, which was derived from etching and sulfidation of Ni-Co coordination polymers (NiCoCP) precursor. The obtained NCSC anode materials deliver a high specific sodium storage capacity of 848 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 and a stable cyclability of 572 mAh g-1 at 5 A g-1 after 830 cycles. This special etching strategy exploit a novel way for the design and preparation of high-performance anode materials for SIBs.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxide (LDH) is widely explored in supercapacitors on account of its high capacity, adjustable composition and easy synthesis process. Unfortunately, solitary LDH still has great limitations as an electrode material due to its shortcomings, such as poor conductivity and easy agglomeration. Herein, nanoflakes assembled NiCo-LDH hollow nanocages derived from a metal-organic framework (MOF) precursor are strung by CuO nanorods formed from etching and oxidation of copper foam (CF), forming hierarchical CuO@NiCo-LDH heterostructures. The as-synthesized CuO@NiCo-LDH/CF shows a large capacitance (5607 mF cm-2 at 1 mA cm-2 ), superior rate performance (88.3 % retention at 10 mA cm-2 ) and impressive cycling durability (93.1 % capacitance is retained after 5000 cycles), which is significantly superior to control CuO/CF, CuO@ZIF-67/CF, NiCo-LDH/CF and Cu(OH)2 @NiCo-LDH/CF electrodes. Besides, an asymmetrical supercapacitor consists of CuO@NiCo-LDH/CF and activated carbon displays a maximum energy density of 47.3 Wh kg-1 , and its capacitance only declines by 6.8 % after 10000 cycles, demonstrating remarkable cycling durability. The advantages of highly conductive and robust CuO nanorods, MOF-derived hollow structure and the core-shell heterostructure contribute to the outstanding electrochemical performance. This synthesis strategy can be extended to design various core-shell heterostructures adopted in versatile electrochemical energy storage applications.

Abstract
Transition-metal selenides (TMSs) have great potential in the synthesis of supercapacitor electrode materials due to their rich content and high specific capacity. However, the aggregation phenomenon of TMS materials in the process of charging and discharging will cause capacity attenuation, which seriously affects the service life and practical applications. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to design simple and efficient synthesis strategies to overcome these shortcomings. Hence, P-doped Cu3Se2 nanosheets are loaded on vertically aligned Cu2S nanorod arrays to synthesize CF/Cu2S@Cu3Se2/P nanocomposites with a unique core-shell heterostructure. Notably, the Cu2S precursors can be rapidly converted into Cu3Se2 nanorod arrays in situ in just 30 min at room temperature. The unique core-shell heterostructure effectively avoids the aggregation phenomenon, and the doped P elements further enhance the electrochemical properties of the electrode materials. Therefore, the as-prepared CF/Cu2S@Cu3Se2/P electrode exhibits a high areal capacitance of 5054 mF cm-2 (1099 C g-1) at 3 mA cm-2 and still retains 90.2% capacitance after 10 000 galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD) cycles. The asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) device assembled from synthetic CF/Cu2S@Cu3Se2/P and activated carbon (AC) possesses an energy density of 41.1 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 480.4 W kg-1. This work shows that the designed CF/Cu2S@Cu3Se2/P electrode has broad application prospects in the field of electrochemical energy storage.

Abstract
Binder-free transition metal oxide-based anodes for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), having high capacity and abundance, have received considerable attention. However, their low conductivity and unstable charge-discharge cycles must be addressed, and scalable fabrication routes for binder-free design with optimal phase tuning are necessary. Herein, we report a precisely tunable synthesis of binder-free cobalt oxide-based LIB anodes using scalable electrothermal waves. Needle-like nanoarrays of cobalt hydroxide on nickel foams are prepared as precursors, and Joule-heating-driven electrothermal waves passing through the metal foams cause transition to cobalt oxides with preserved structures and adjustable phase tuning of grains and oxygen vacancies. The rapid heating-cooling environment using electrothermal waves causes extreme input thermal energy over the activation energy of phase transitions and metastable phase trapping. This programmable route completes the selective grain characteristics and vacancy concentrations. The electrothermally tuned binder-free LIB anodes employing the CoO/Co3O4@Ni foam-based electrodes exhibit a high-rate capacity (3.7 mAh cm-2) at 2.4 mA cm-2 for 70 charge-discharge cycles. Accumulated electrothermal waves from multiple cycles broaden the tunable ranges of the morphological and chemical transitions causing rapid screening of the optimal phases for LIB anodes. This phase-tuning strategy will inspire precise yet efficient synthesis routes for diverse binder-free electrodes and catalysts.

Abstract
Hollow nanoboxes structure have raised great attention as microwave absorption materials on account of their ultralow density and large specific area. By introducing an adjustable interior cavity structure, the dielectric loss and microwave absorption performance were affected by the tunable complex permittivity and impedance matching was improved. In our study, hollow CoS2 nanoboxes with designable interspaces were successfully fabricated based on the surfactant-assisted solution method and followed by an in situ ion-exchange process. The structure, elemental compositions and morphology of the products were characterized by XRD, XPS, EDX, SEM and TEM, respectively. In addition, microwave absorption performance and the intrinsic mechanism are investigated in-depth. The paraffin-based composites with 20 wt.% filling contents exhibited superior microwave absorption capacities in view of both maximum reflection loss value (RLmax, -54.48 dB) and effective absorption bandwidth (EAB, below -10 dB, 6.0 GHz), which can be ascribed to unique hollow structure and good impedance matching. With these considerations in mind, this study provides a reference for the construction of high-performance microwave absorbers with unique hollow structure.

Abstract
Light-responsive nanocarrier-based drug delivery systems (NDDSs), due to their unique advantages such as safety, minimal cross-reaction, and spatiotemporal precision, have received wide attention. Notably, second near-infrared (NIR-II) light, which has a high penetration depth for manipulating NDDSs to release drugs, is in high demand. Herein, polyethylene glycol (PEG)-modified hollow CuxS nanoparticles (NPs) are developed as an all-in-one NIR-II light-responsive NDDS for synergistic chemo-photothermal therapy. First, CuxS-PEG NPs were prepared under mild conditions by using Cu2O NPs as sacrificial templates. The morphology, photothermal effect, drug loading/releasing abilities, and synergistic chemo-photothermal therapy of CuxS-PEG NPs have been investigated. The CuxS-PEG NPs with hollow structures showed a high drug loading capacity (∼255 μg Dox per mg of CuxS NPs) and stimuli-responsive drug release triggered by NIR-II laser irradiation. The synergistic chemo-photothermal therapy based on the Dox/CuxS-PEG NPs showed 98.5% tumor elimination.

Abstract
Transition metal sulfides and oxides with high theoretical capacities have been regarded as promising anode candidates for a sodium-ion battery (SIB); however, they have critical issues including sluggish electrochemical kinetics and poor long-term stability. Herein, a dual carbon design strategy is proposed to integrate with highly active heterojunctions to overcome the above issues. In this new design, CoS2/CoO hollow dodecahedron heterojunctions are sandwiched between open framework carbon-spheres (OFCs) and a reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanomembrane (OFC@CoS2/CoO@rGO). The CoS2/CoO heterojunctions effectively promote electron transfer on their surface and provide more electrochemical active sites through their hierarchical hollow structures assembled by nanodots. Meanwhile, the dual-carbon framework forms a highly conductive network that enables a better rate capability. More importantly, the dual carbon can greatly buffer volume expansion and stable reaction interfaces of electrode material during the charge/discharge process. Benefitting from their synergistical effects, the OFC@CoS2/CoO@rGO electrode achieves a high reversible capacity of 460 mAh g-1 at 0.05 A g-1 and still maintains 205.3 mAh g-1 even when current density is increased by 200 times when used as an anode material for SIBs. Their cycling property is also remarkable with a maintained capacity of 161 mAh g-1 after 3500 charging/discharging cycles at a high current density of 1 A g-1. The dual-carbon strategy is demonstrated to be effective for enhanced reaction kinetics and long-term cycling property, providing siginificant guidance for preparing other high-performance electrode materials.

Abstract
Herein, a facile and efficient synthesis of microstructured Co3 O4 for both supercapacitor and water-splitting applications is reported. Metal cations (Fe3+ , Cu2+ ) serve as structure-directing agents regulating the structure of Co compounds, which are subsequently annealed to yield Co3 O4 . Detailed characterizations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that the in situ Cl-doping introduces oxygen defects and provides abundant electroactive sites, and narrows the bandgap, which enhances the electron excitation of the as-formed Co3 O4 . The as-prepared Cl-doped Co3 O4 hierarchical nanospheres (Cl-Co3 O4 -h) display a high specific capacitance of 1629 F g-1 at 1 A g-1 as an electrode for supercapacitors, with excellent rate capability and cyclability. The Cl-Co3 O4 -h//activated carbon (AC) asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) electrode achieves a specific capacitance of 237 F g-1 at 1 A g-1 , with an energy density of 74 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 807 W kg-1 and even maintains 47 Wh kg-1 at the higher-power density of 24.2 kW kg-1 . An integrated electrolyzer for water-splitting with Cl-Co3 O4 -h as both cathode and anode can be driven by Cl-Co3 O4 -h//AC ASC. The electrolyzer provides a high current density of 35 mA cm-2 at a cell voltage of 1.6 V, with good current density retention over 50 h.

Abstract
The facile and cost-effective fabrication of hybrid nanostructures comprised of hollow mixed metallic chalcogenides has attracted growing interest in the development of high-performance energy storage devices. Herein, multi-component (nickel-cobalt-copper-sulfides/selenides (NCCS/NCCSe)) hollow nanocubes (HNCs) are prepared via a single-step sulfurization/selenization process. The NCCS material shows interior HNCs, and the NCCSe material exhibits slightly formed porous cubes. Both the prepared materials demonstrate higher charge storage performance than the precursor NCC NCs owing to the improved surface morphology and addition of sulfur and selenium ions. Particularly, the NCCS HNCs electrode reveals superior specific capacity (capacitance) (70.32 mAh g-1 (666.20 F g-1 ) at 5 mA cm-2 ) along with excellent cycling stability of 108.6% even after 10 000 cycles. Interestingly, the electrode delivers a good rate capability of 83.5% at a high current density of 20 mA cm-2 . The feasibility of the battery-type NCCS HNCs as a positive electrode is explored by constructing an aqueous electrochemical hybrid capacitor (AEHC). The AEHC exhibits maximum energy and power densities of 23.15 Wh kg-1 and 7899.08 W kg-1 , respectively. Remarkably, it demonstrates superior long-life cycling stability even after 10 000 cycles (120.6% retention). The suitability of AEHC for practical application is also tested by driving electronic devices.

Abstract
Sodium-ion batteries have great potential to become large-scale energy storage devices due to their abundant and low-cost resources. However, the lack of anode and cathode materials with both high energy density and long-term cycling performance significantly affects their commercial applications. In this work, uniform CoTe2 nanoparticles are generated from the tellurization of Co nanoparticles, which were coated with polyvinylpyrrolidone in a three-dimensional (3D) porous carbon matrix (CoTe2@3DPNC). Finally, a dual-type carbon confinement structure is formed after tellurization during which citric acid is adopted as the source of the inner carbon scaffold. The hierarchical carbon matrix not only builds a robust and fast ion/electronic conductive 3D architecture but also mitigates the volume expansion and aggregation of CoTe2 during sodium insertion/extraction. Remarkably, the CoTe2@3DPNC electrode displays a high reversible capacity (216.5 mAh g-1/627.9 mAh cm-3 at 0.2 A g-1 after 200 cycles) and outstanding long-term cycling performance (118.1 mAh g-1/342.5 mAh cm-3 even at 5.0 A g-1 after 2500 cycles). Kinetics tests and capacitance calculations clearly reveal a battery-capacitive dual-model Na-storage mechanism. Furthermore, ex situ XRD/SEM/TEM demonstrate superior stability during sodium insertion/extraction. This work provides a valuable strategy for the rational structural design of long-life electrodes for advanced rechargeable batteries.

Abstract
Reasonable design of electrodes with well-defined nanostructure is the central aspect in the practical application of high-performance supercapacitors. Herein, hollow tube@sheets NiCo2S4 core-shell nanoarrays are rationally constructed to the free-standing electrode by in situ growing ZIF-67 on Co-precursor nanorods array and sequentially performing anion-exchange (S2-) and cation-exchange (Ni2+). The well-defined nanostructures can shorten the ion transport path in the charging-discharging process, increase the specific surface area and electrochemical active cites, which help in improving electrochemical performance. Therefore, the unique tube@sheets NiCo2S4 core-shell nanoarrays exhibit intriguing electrochemical performance and show excellent areal capacitance of 11.3 F cm-2 (3227.94 F g-1) at a current density of 2 mA cm-2 (2 A g-1). The assembled asymmetric supercapacitor device delivers a high energy density of 0.42 mW h cm-2 at a power density of 2.1 mW cm-2 and displays outstanding cyclic stability (90.2% retention after 5000 cycles). Consequently, the well-defined nanostructure engineering strategy is beneficial for designing active electrode materials for efficient energy storage devices.

Abstract
Establishing the hierarchical porous architectures has been considered to be the most efficient approach to realize the efficient mass diffusion and large exposed active sites of designed micro/nanomaterial catalysts for hydrogen evolution reactions (HER). In this work, the nonequivalent cation exchange strategy is developed to fabricate the hierarchically porous Ag/Ag2 S heterostructure based on the rapid cation exchange by the metal-organic framework (MOF)-derived CoS. The as-prepared Ag/Ag2 S inherits the original 3D hollow morphology of CoS with porous nature, possessing abundant S-vacancies and lattice strain simultaneously due to the coordination loss and in-situ epitaxial growth of metallic Ag on the surface. Owing to the optimizations of lattice and electronic structures, the unique hierarchically porous Ag/Ag2 S heterostructure exhibits superior catalytic performance than previously reported catalysts derived from MOF. Theoretical calculations have confirmed that the co-existence of Ag cluster and sulfur vacancies activates the electroactivity of the interfacial defective region to boost the HER process. The binding strength of the proton and energetic trend of HER has been optimized with the formation of Ag/Ag2 S heterostructure, which guarantees the efficient generation of H2 . This study opens a new strategy for the utilization of the nonequivalent cation exchange strategy to efficiently synthesize advanced electrocatalysts with high performances.

Dual confinement of high-loading enzymes within metal-organic frameworks for glucose sensor with enhanced cascade biocatalysis. Biosens Bioelectron 2021; 196:113695. [PMID: 34688111 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2021.113695] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2021] [Revised: 09/29/2021] [Accepted: 10/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
The intrinsically fragile nature and leakage of the enzymes is a major obstacle for the commercial sensor of a continuous glucose monitoring system. Herein, a dual confinement effect is developed in a three dimensional (3D) nanocage-based zeolite imidazole framework (NC-ZIF), during which the high-loading enzymes can be well encapsulated with unusual bioactivity and stability. The shell of NC-ZIF sets the first confinement to prevent enzymes leakage, and the interior nanocage of NC-ZIF provides second confinement to immobilize enzymes and offers a spacious environment to maintain their conformational freedom. Moreover, the mesoporosity of the formed NC-ZIF can be precisely controlled, which can effectively enhance the mass transport. The resulted GOx/Hemin@NC-ZIF multi-enzymes system could not only realize rapid detection of glucose by colorimetric and electrochemical sensors with high catalytic cascade activity (with an 8.3-fold and 16-fold enhancements in comparison with free enzymes in solution, respectively), but also exhibit long-term stability, excellent selectivity and reusability. More importantly, the based wearable sweatband sensor measurement results showed a high correlation (>0.84, P < 0.001) with the levels measured by commercial glucometer. The reported dual confinement strategy opens up a window to immobilize enzymes with enhanced catalytic efficiency and stability for clinical-grade noninvasive continuous glucose sensor.

Abstract
Prussian blue analogs (PBAs) are considered as reliable and promising cathode materials for aqueous Zn-ion batteries (AZIBs), but they suffer from low capacity and poor cycling stability due to insufficient active sites and structural damage caused by the ion insertion/extraction processes. Herein, a template-engaged ion exchange approach has been developed for the synthesis of Co-substituted Mn-rich PBA hollow spheres (CoMn-PBA HSs) as cathode materials for AZIBs. Benefiting from the multiple advantageous features including hollow structure, abundant active sites, fast Zn2+ ion diffusion, and partial Co substitution, the CoMn-PBA HSs electrode shows efficient zinc ion storage properties in terms of high capacity, decent rate capability and prolonged cycle life.

Boosting potassium-storage performance via confining highly dispersed molybdenum dioxide nanoparticles within N-doped porous carbon nano-octahedrons. J Colloid Interface Sci 2021; 607:1109-1119.

Abstract
The development of durable and stable metal oxide anodes for potassium ion batteries (PIBs) has been hampered by poor electrochemical performance and ambiguous reaction mechanisms. Herein, we design and fabricate molybdenum dioxide (MoO2)@N-doped porous carbon (NPC) nano-octahedrons through metal-organic frameworks derived strategy for PIBs with MoO2 nanoparticles confined within NPC nano-octahedrons. Benefiting from the synergistic effect of nanoparticle level of MoO2 and N-doped carbon porous nano-octahedrons, the MoO2@NPC electrode exhibits superior electron/ion transport kinetics, excellent structural integrity, and impressive potassium-ion storage performance with enhanced cyclic stability and high-rate capability. The density functional theory calculations and experiment test proved that MoO2@NPC has a higher affinity of potassium and higher conductivity than MoO2 and N-doped carbon electrodes. Kinetics analysis revealed that surface pseudocapacitive contributions are greatly enhanced for MoO2@NPC nano-octahedrons. In-situ and ex-situ analysis confirmed an intercalation reaction mechanism of MoO2@NPC for potassium ion storage. Furthermore, the assembled MoO2@NPC//perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) full cell exhibits good cycling stability with 72.6 mAh g-1 retained at 100 mA g-1 over 200 cycles. Therefore, this work present here not only evidences an effective and viable structural engineering strategy for enhancing the electrochemical behavior of MoO2 material in PIBs, but also gives a comprehensive insight of kinetic and mechanism for potassium ion interaction with metal oxide.

Abstract
Developing superior properties of epoxy resin composites with high fire resistance, light smoke, and low toxicity has been the focus of the research in the flame-retardant field. In particular, it is essential to decrease the emissions of toxic gases and smoke particles generated during the thermal decomposition of epoxy resin (EP) to satisfy the industrial requirements for environmental protection and safety. Consequently, the PZS@ZIF-67 composite was designed and synthesized by employing the hydroxyl group-containing polyphosphazene (poly(cyclotriphosphazene-co-4,4'-dihydroxydiphenylsulfone), PZS) as both the interfacial compatibility and an in situ template and the ZIF-67 nanocrystal as a nanoscale coating and flame-retardant cooperative. ZIF-67 nanocrystal with multidimensional nanostructures was uniformly wrapped on the surface of PZS microspheres. Subsequently, the acquired PZS@ZIF-67 composite was incorporated into the epoxy resin to prepare composite samples for the study of their fire safety, toxicity suppression, and mechanical performance. Herein, the EP/5% PZS@ZIF-67 passed the V-0 rating in a UL-94 test with a 31.9% limit oxygen index value. More precisely, it is endowed with a decline of 51.08%, 28.26%, and 37.87% of the peak heat release rate, the total heat release, and the total smoke production, respectively. In addition, the unique structure of PZS@ZIF-67 microsphere presented a slight impact on the mechanical properties of EP composites at low loading. The PZS@ZIF-67 possible flame-retardant mechanism was speculated based on the analysis of the condensed phase and the gas phase of EP composites.
