Abstract
Hydrogen production, which is in the spotlight as a promising eco-friendly fuel, and the need for inexpensive and accurate electronic devices in the biochemistry field are important emerging technologies. However, the use of electrocatalytic devices based on expensive noble metal catalysts limits commercial applications. In recent years, to improve performance and reduce cost, electrocatalysts based on cheaper copper or nickel materials have been investigated for the non-enzymatic glucose oxidation reaction (GOR) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). In this study, we demonstrate a facile and easy electrochemical method of forming a cheap nickel copper double hydroxide (NiCu-DH) electrocatalyst deposited onto a three-dimensional (3D) CuNi current collector, which can effectively handle two different reactions due to its high activity for both the GOR and the HER. The as-prepared electrode has a structure comprising abundant 3D-interconnected porous dendritic walls for easy access of the electrolyte ions and highly conductive networks for fast electron transfer; additionally, it provides numerous electroactive sites. The synergistic combination of the dendritic 3D-CuNi with its abundant active sites and the self-made NiCu-DH with its excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of glucose and HER enables use of the catalyst for both reactions. The as-prepared electrode as a glucose sensor exhibits an outstanding glucose detection limit value (0.4 μM) and a wide detection range (from 0.4 μM to 1.4 mM) with an excellent sensitivity of 1452.5 μA/cm2/mM. The electrode is independent of the oxygen content and free from chloride poisoning. Furthermore, the as-prepared electrode also requires a low overpotential of -180 mV versus reversible hydrogen electrode to yield a current density of 10 mA/cm2 with a Tafel slope of 73 mV/dec for the HER. Based on this performance, this work introduces a new paradigm for exploring cost-effective bi-functional catalysts for the GOR and HER.

Abstract
The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) can provide electrons for reducing water, carbon dioxide, and ammonia. On the other hand, copper compounds are among the most interesting OER catalysts. In this study, water oxidation of a Cu foil in the presence of K2FeO4, a soluble Fe source, under alkaline conditions (pH ≈ 13) is investigated using electrochemical methods, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, in situ visible spectroelectrochemistry, Raman spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. After the reaction of the Fe salt with the Cu foil, a remarkable improvement for OER is recorded, which indicates that either the Fe ions on the copper foil directly participate in OER or these ions are critical for activating copper ions on the surface toward OER. Indeed, a remarkable decrease (130 mV) in the overpotential is recorded for the Cu foil in the presence of [FeO4]2-. Tafel slopes for the Cu foil in the absence and presence of K2FeO4 are 113.2 and 46.4 mV/decade, respectively. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy shows that there is a strong interaction between Cu(II) and Fe(III) on the surface of the Cu foil. During OER in the presence of Cu(II) (hydr)oxide, Cu(III) is detected. In situ visible spectroelectrochemistry shows that Cu and Fe ions are dynamically active and precipitate on the surface of the counter electrode during cyclic voltammetry (CV). The isotopic experimental data using H218O based on Raman spectroscopy show that there is no change in the lattice oxygen. All of these experiments adopt a new perspective on the role of Fe in OER in the presence of a Cu foil under alkaline conditions.

Abstract
Highly active bifunctional electrocatalysts for water splitting are of particular importance for the widespread usage of renewable energy, which require synergistic effect of ingenious architecture and intrinsic catalytic activity. Herein, a novel Cu-Co-Se nanotube array supported on 3D copper skeleton was synthesized as high-efficiency bifunctional electrocatalyst for overall water splitting via a facile two-step hydrothermal method. The rationally designed Cu-Co-Se nanotube electrocatalyst exhibited good electrocatalytic performance, with overpotential of only 152 mV to generate 10 mA cm-2 for the hydrogen evolution reaction and a small overpotential of 332 mV to drive a current density of 50 mA cm-2 for the oxygen evolution reaction. The good electrocatalytic performance was mainly due to the large electrochemical surface area and electronic coupling synergies triggered by the self-supported bimetallic nanotube architecture. The water splitting system assembled using Cu-Co-Se nanotube as cathode and anode only needed a cell voltage of 1.65 V to drive a current density of 10 mA cm-2 with long durability of 50 h for overall water splitting. Furthermore, density functional theory calculations proved that the existence of electron exchange between the neighboring bimetals as well as the coupling between Cu, Co, and Se contributed to the improvement of the water splitting performance. This work provides a general strategy to develop cost-efficient and geometrically superior bimetallic electrocatalysts toward water splitting for large-scale hydrogen production.

Abstract
Designing and constructing a stable water-retention layer acting as the isolation between the oil and membrane surface holds great significance for solving the membrane fouling problems in oil/water separation, including common layered oil/water mixtures, immiscible oil-in-water emulsions, and even high-viscosity crude oil-in-water emulsions. Inspired by the self-cleaning property of sea urchin thorns, a bioinspired anti-oil-fouling hierarchically structured membranes decorated with urchin-like α-FeOOH particles was successfully prepared via the layer-by-layer (LBL) self-assembly method, maintaining numerous effective micro-nanopores. The hierarchical structured membrane exhibited superior superhydrophilicity/underwater superoleophobicity, high water-retention ability, and preferable anti-oil-fouling properties. Furthermore, the biomimetic membrane with controllable pore sizes could not only separate common layered oil/water mixtures but also effectively separate immiscible surfactant-stabilized oil-in-water emulsions of both low-viscosity crude oil and high-viscosity crude oil with an ultrahigh water flux up to 2598.4 L m-2 h-1 and an outstanding separation efficiency of 98.5%, revealing its promising prospect in oily wastewater treatment.

Abstract
As the cornerstone of the hydrogen economy, water electrolysis consisting of the hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions (HER and OER) greatly needs cost-efficient electrocatalysts that can decrease the dynamic overpotential and save on energy consumption. Over past years, observable progress has been made by constructing core-shell structures free from or with few noble-metals. They afford particular merits, e.g., a highly-exposed active surface, modulated electronic configurations, strain effects, interfacial synergy, or reinforced stability, to promote the kinetics and electrocatalytic performance of the HER, OER and overall water splitting. So far, a large variety of inorganics (carbon and transition-metal related components) have been introduced into core-shell electrocatalysts. Herein, representative efforts and progress are summarized with a clear classification of core and shell components, to access comprehensive insights into electrochemical processes that proceed on surfaces or interfaces. Finally, a perspective on the future development of core-shell electrocatalysts is offered. The overall aim is to shed some light on the exploration of emerging materials for energy conversion and storage.

Abstract
Transition metal phosphides have been proven as highly efficient electrocatalysts. In this study, a FeP/CeO2-NF hybrid electrode was prepared by a simple electrodeposition and high-temperature phosphorization method. The electrode exhibits outstanding performance for the OER with an overpotential of only 245 mV at a current density of 100 mA cm-2, a Tafel slope as low as 39.1 mV dec-1 and an excellent durability for 50 h at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 in an alkaline solution. Such significant high performances are attributed to a combined effect of the excellent electron conductivity of CeO2 and unique uneven columnar structure of the electrode.

Abstract
Self-standing and cost-effective electrodes for high-performance oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are vital for emerging energy storage and conversion technologies. We report a scalable binder-free OER electrode with open hollow nanocubes of Ni-doped CuOx on Ni foam (hNC/NF) through spontaneous galvanic displacement followed by simple electrochemical oxidation. Face-selective etching for the unique structure of hollow nanocubes with large open ends is achieved by utilizing the different accessibility of the top and side faces of cubes to solution species, more specifically the depletion of reactants between the densely supported nanocubes. Besides, the in situ deposition on Ni foam allows spontaneous Ni doping, which, as revealed by DFT calculations, fortunately strengthens the adsorption of oxygenated intermediates and therefore could optimize the free energy path of OER on Cu oxides. Benefiting further from the high accessible surface area of the unique open hollow architecture, the hNC/NF exhibits an outstanding OER activity with a small overpotential (η = 305 mV at 10 mA cm-2) as well as excellent stability without significant decay after 120 h operation. To our knowledge, this should represent the best OER performance of Cu-based electrocatalysts and is competitive with those based on Fe-group metals. Besides, the hNC/NF-based water electrolyzer delivers a performance of 1.50 V cell voltage at 10 mA cm-2, offering great promise for practical application.

Abstract
Morphological control of nanomaterials is essential for their properties and potential applications, and many strategies have been developed. In this work, a new strategy for simultaneously preparing and modulating the morphological structure evolution of copper layered hydroxyl salts and oxides is introduced. By changing the nature of the anions in the electroplating solution, significant variations in the size and porosity of nanosheets are achieved. Porous CuO nanosheets with a higher surface area were obtained by the use of copper nitrate as a copper source, while CuO nanoflakes were produced from copper sulfate. Photoanodes combining these porous CuO nanomaterials and a typical light absorber (BiVO4) exhibited good morphology-dependent activities for photoelectrochemical water splitting. The composite electrode displays a negative shift of 180 mV for the onset potential and an approximately 2-fold enhancement in the photocurrent compared to the bare BiVO4. The charge recombination rate in the photoelectrode with the porous CuO nanosheets was significantly lower than the bare photoanode due to the favorable electron diffusion path and effective charge collection. This research offers an effective method for constructing a highly active photoelectrocatalytic system for overall water splitting.

Abstract
Solar water splitting by semiconductor based photoanodes and photocathodes is one of the most promising strategies to convert solar energy to chemical energy to meet the high demand for energy consumption in modern society. However, the state-of-the-art efficiency is too low to fulfill the demand. To overcome this challenge and thus enable the industrial realization of a solar water splitting device, different approaches have been taken to enhance the overall device efficiency, one of which is the incorporation of plasmonic nanostructures. Photoanodes and photocathodes coupled to the optimized plasmonic nanostructures, matching the absorption wavelength of the semiconductors, can exhibit a significantly increased efficiency. So far, gold and silver have been extensively explored to plasmonically enhance water splitting efficiency, with disadvantages of high cost and low enhancement. Instead, non-noble plasmonic metals such as aluminum and copper, are earth-abundant and low cost. In this article, we review their potentials in photoelectrolysis, towards scalable applications.

Abstract
Developing transition metal-based electrocatalysts with rich active sites for water electrolysis plays important roles in renewable energy fields. So far, some strategies including designing nanostructures, incorporating conductive support or foreign elements have been adopted to develop efficient electrocatalysts. Herein, we summarize recent progresses and propose in-situ electrochemical activation as a new pretreating technique for enhanced catalytic performances. The activation techniques mainly comprise facile electrochemical processes such as anodic oxidation, cathodic reduction, etching, lithium-assisted tuning and counter electrode electro-dissolution. During these electrochemical treatments, the catalyst surfaces are modified from bulk phase, which can tune local electronic structures, create more active species, enlarge surface area and thus improve the catalytic performances. Meanwhile, this technique can couple the atomic, electronic structures with electrocatalysis mechanisms for water splitting. Compared to traditional chemical treatment, the in-situ electrochemical activation techniques have superior advantages such as facile operation, mild environment, variable control, high efficiency and flexibility. This review may provide guidance for improving water electrolysis efficiencies and hold promising for application in many other energy-conversion fields such as supercapacitors, fuel cells and batteries.

Abstract
Excellent PEC efficiency, good reusability and the super stability of trap-like SnS2/TiO2 nanotube arrays (NTs)-based photoanodes are reported. Specifically, the SnS2/TiO2-180 °C (ST-180) photoanode exhibited the highest photocurrent density (1.05 mA cm-2) and an optimal η (0.73%) at 0.5 V (vs. SCE) under simulated light irradiation (AM 1.5G), which are 4.6 and 3.8 times higher than those of pure TiO2 NTs (0.23 mA cm-2 and 0.19%). The IPCE values of ST-180 can reach 21.5% (365 nm) and 13.8% (420 nm), which are much higher than those of pure TiO2 NTs (10.6% at 365 nm and 0.8% at 420 nm). The APCE values of the pure TiO2 NTs photoelectrode are 12.8% (365 nm) and 1.1% (420 nm), while the ST-180 values are 22.3% and 14.2%, respectively. Furthermore, the generation rates of H2 and O2 for the ST-180 photoanode are 47.2 and 23.1 μmol cm-2 h-1 at 0.5 V under AM 1.5G, corresponding to faradaic efficiencies of around 80.1% and 78.3%, respectively. In short, the high-efficiency PEC water splitting performance of this SnS2/TiO2 photoanode results from the enhanced light harvesting ability of the trap-like SnS2 structure, accelerated carrier transportation properties of TiO2 NTs, and effective carrier separation of the type-II heterojunction structure. This work may offer a combinatorial strategy for the preparation of heterojunction structures with high PEC performance and can be a model structure for similar photoanode materials.

Abstract
It is highly desired to develop efficient earth-abundant electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline media. In this communication, we report the in situ electrochemical conversion of a nanoarray of Cu(tetracyanoquinodimethane), Cu(TCNQ), an inorganic-organic hybrid, on Cu foam into CuO nanocrystals confined in a highly conductive nanoarray via anode oxidation. As a 3D catalyst electrode, the resulting CuO-TCNQ/CF shows high OER activity and demands an overpotential of only 317 mV to drive a geometrical catalytic current density of 25 mA cm-2. Notably, this catalyst also demonstrates strong long-term electrochemical durability. This study provides us with a universal strategy toward topotactic room-temperature preparation of conductive nanoarrays with confined transition metal nanocatalysts for practical applications.

Abstract
NiLi2+ are good electro-catalysts for water oxidation in phosphate or carbonate buffers. The results point out that the active oxidizing agents are L(X)NiIVOH4-(3-n+1)/(2-n+1), where X = PO4Hn(3-n)- or CO3Hn(2-n)- formed from LNiIVX2via a mechanism involving an acid catalyzed O-P or O-C bond heterolysis. Carbonate behaves differently from phosphate as it is a non-innocent ligand and it can be oxidized.

Abstract
Recently it was reported that copper bicarbonate/carbonate complexes are good electro-catalysts for water oxidation. However, the results did not enable a decision whether the active oxidant is a CuIII or a CuIV complex. Kinetic analysis of pulse radiolysis measurements coupled with DFT calculations point out that CuIII (CO3 )n3-2n complexes are the active intermediates in the electrolysis of CuII (CO3 )n2-2n solution. The results enable the evaluation of E°[(CuIII/II (CO3 )n )aq ]≈1.42 V versus NHE at pH 8.4. This redox potential is in accord with the electrochemical report. As opposed to literature suggestions for water oxidation, the present results rule out single-electron transfer from CuIII (CO3 )n3-2n to yield hydroxyl radicals. Significant charge transfer from the coordinated carbonate to CuIII results in the formation of C2 O62- by means of a second-order reaction of CuIII (CO3 )n3-2n . The results point out that carbonate stabilizes transition-metal cations at high oxidation states, not only as a good sigma donor, but also as a non-innocent ligand.

Abstract
Crystalline Cu-based nanowire arrays (NWAs) including Cu(OH)2 , CuO, Cu2 O, and CuOx are facilely grown on Cu foil and are found to act as highly efficient, low-cost, and robust electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Impressively, this noble-metal-free 3 D Cu(OH)2 -NWAs/Cu foil electrode shows the highest catalytic activity with a Tafel slope of 86 mV dec(-1) , an overpotential (η) of about 530 mV at ∼10 mA cm(-2) (controlled-potential electrolysis method without iR correction) and almost 100 % Faradic efficiency, paralleling the performance of the state-of-the-art RuO2 OER catalyst in 0.1 m NaOH solution (pH 12.8). To the best of our knowledge, this work represents one of the best results ever reported on Cu-based OER systems.

Abstract
FeOOH/CeO2 heterolayered nanotubes supported on Ni foam as efficient oxygen evolution electrocatalysts are reported. The hybrid structure can obviously promote the catalytic performance for the oxygen evolution reaction, such as low onset potential, high electroactivity, and excellent long-term durability. This study provides a new route to the design and fabrication of electrocatalysts with high electroactivity and durability for oxygen evolution.

Au-NiCo2O4 supported on three-dimensional hierarchical porous graphene-like material for highly effective oxygen evolution reaction. Sci Rep 2016; 6:23398.

Abstract
A three-dimensional hierarchical porous graphene-like (3D HPG) material was synthesized by a one-step ion-exchange/activation combination method using a cheap metal ion exchanged resin as carbon precursor. The 3D HPG material as support for Au-NiCo2O4 gives good activity and stability for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The 3D HPG material is induced into NiCo2O4 as conductive support to increase the specific area and improve the poor conductivity of NiCo2O4. The activity of and stability of NiCo2O4 significantly are enhanced by a small amount of Au for OER. Au is a highly electronegative metal and acts as an electron adsorbate, which is believed to facilitate to generate and stabilize Co4+ and Ni3+ cations as the active centres for the OER.

Three Dimensional Sculpturing of Vertical Nanowire Arrays by Conventional Photolithography. Sci Rep 2016; 6:18886.

Abstract
Ordered nanoarchitectures have attracted an intense research interest recently because of their promising device applications. They are always fabricated by self-assembling building blocks such as nanowires, nanodots. This kind of bottom up approaches is limited in poor control over height, lateral resolution, aspect ratio, and patterning. Here, we break these limits and realize 3D sculpturing of vertical ZnO nanowire arrays (NAs) based on the conventional photolithography approach. These are achieved by immersing nanowire NAs in thick photoresist (PR) layers, which enable the cutting and patterning of ZnO NAs as well as the tailoring of NAs. Our strategy of 3D sculpturing of NAs promisingly paves the way for designing novel NAs-based nanoarchitectures.
