Abstract
An innovative p-n heterojunction Bi2S3/ZnCo2O4 composite was first fabricated via a two-step co-precipitation and hydrothermal method. By controlling the weight amount of Na2S and Bi(NO3)3 precursor, different heterogeneous xBi2S3/ZnCo2O4 were synthesized (x = 0, 2, 6, 12, and 20). The p-n heterojunction Bi2S3/ZnCo2O4 was characterized by structural, optical, and photochemical properties and the photocatalyst decoloration of indigo carmine. Mott-Schottky plots proved a heterojunction formed between n-Bi2S3 and p-ZnCo2O4. Furthermore, the investigation of the photocurrent response indicated that the Bi2S3/ZnCo2O4 composite displayed an enhanced response, which was respectively 4.6 and 7.3 times (4.76 μA cm-2) greater than that of the pure Bi2S3 (1.02 μA cm-2) and ZnCo2O4 (0.65 μA cm-2). Especially the optimized p-n Bi2S3/ZnCo2O4 heterojunction with 12 wt% Bi2S3 showed the highest photocatalyst efficacy of 92.1% at 40 mg L-1 solutions, a loading of 1.0 g L-1, and a pH of 6 within 90 min of visible light illumination. These studies prove that p-n Bi2S3/ZnCo2O4 heterojunction photocatalysts can greatly boost their photocatalytic performance because the inner electric field enhances the process of separating photogenerated electron-hole pairs. Furthermore, this composite catalyst showed good stability and recyclability for environmental remediation.

Abstract
Synchronous chemotherapy and radiotherapy, termed chemoradiation therapy, is now an important standard regime for synergistic cancer treatment. For such treatment, nanoparticles can serve as improved carriers of chemotherapeutics into tumors and as better radiosensitizers for localized radiotherapy. Herein, we designed a Schottky-type theranostic heterostructure, Bi2S3-Au, with deep level defects (DLDs) in Bi2S3 as a nano-radiosensitizer and CT imaging contrast agent which can generate reactive free radicals to initiate DNA damage within tumor cells under X-ray irradiation. Methotrexate (MTX) was conjugated onto the Bi2S3-Au nanoparticles as a chemotherapeutic agent showing enzymatic stimuli-responsive release behavior. The designed hybrid system also contained curcumin (CUR), which cannot only serve as a nutritional supplement for chemotherapy, but also can play an important role in the radioprotection of normal cells. Impressively, this combined one-dose chemoradiation therapeutic injection of co-drug loaded bimetallic multifunctional theranostic nanoparticles with a one-time clinical X-ray irradiation, completely eradicated tumors in mice after approximately 20 days after irradiation showing extremely effective anticancer efficacy which should be further studied for numerous anti-cancer applications.

Abstract
Potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) are considered a promising alternative to lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) for next-generation energy storage due to the abundance and competitive cost of potassium resources. However, the excavation and the development of proper electrodes for PIBs are still confronted with great challenges. Herein, a self-assembled bismuth sulfide microsphere wrapped with reduced graphene oxide was fabricated to form a heterostructured Bi2S3@RGO composite via a visible-light-assisted method and served as the anode for PIBs. The as-prepared Bi2S3@RGO composite presented a high reversible specific capacity of 538 mA h g-1 at 0.2 A g-1 and superior rate capability of 237 mA h g-1 at a high current density of 2 A g-1 after 300 cycles. In particular, the high capacity could be ascribed to the synergistic effect of the conversion and alloying reactions during the electrochemical processes, which was validated by ex situ X-ray diffraction. The fabrication of a unique heterostructure combining the self-assembled Bi2S3 microspheres and flexible RGO boosted the facile charge transfer, leading to the enhanced cyclic stability and rate performance.

Abstract
A hierarchical composite based on the modified reduced graphene oxide with platinum-nickel decorated polyaniline nano-spheres (rGO/PANI@PtNi) was facilely prepared via microwave-assisted self-reduction for an application in nonenzymatic hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) detection. Compared to the pristine rGO, the composite exhibited a much tougher surface due to the stacking of conductive PANI nano-spheres on rGO sheets, leading to good dispersion of PtNi nanoparticles and a large active area. Furthermore, the multi-valance Ni2+/3+ in the PtNi particles effectively promoted the catalytic property of Pt sites and facilitated a superior electrochemical performance of PtNi alloy than that of neat Pt. Owing to the synergistic effect of the improved electrical conductivity and the promoted electrocatalytical property, the modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) with rGO/PANI@PtNi nanocomposite displayed an outstanding electrochemical sensitivity towards H2O2 with a fast response time (<2 s), a wide linear range (0.1–126.4 mM), a low detection limit (0.5 µM), as well as a long-life stability for one week without obvious degradation. This novel strategy opens a novel and promising approach to design high performance sensors for H2O2 detection.

Abstract
Recently, enhancement of the energy density of a supercapacitor is restricted by the inferior capacitance of negative electrodes, which impedes the commercial development of high-performance symmetric and asymmetric supercapacitors. This article introduces the in situ bulk-quantity synthesis of hydrophilic, porous, graphitic sulfur-doped carbon nano-onions (S-CNO) using a facile flame-pyrolysis technique and evaluated its potential applications as a high-performance supercapacitor electrode in a symmetric device configuration. The high-surface wettability in the as-prepared state enables the formation of highly suspended active conducting material S-CNO ink, which eliminates the routine use of binders for the electrode preparation. The as-prepared S-CNO displayed encouraging features for electrochemical energy storage applications with a high specific surface area (950 m2 g-1), ordered mesoporous structure (∼3.9 nm), high S-content (∼3.6 at. %), and substantial electronic conductivity, as indicated by the ∼80% sp2 graphitic carbon content. The in situ sulfur incorporation into the carbon framework of the CNO resulted in a high-polarized surface with well-distributed reversible pseudosites, increasing the electrode-electrolyte interaction and improving the overall conductivity. The S-CNOs showed a specific capacitance of 305 F g-1, an energy density of 10.6 W h kg-1, and a power density of 1004 W kg-1 at an applied current density of 2 A g-1 in a symmetrical two-electrode cell configuration, which is approximately three times higher than that of the pristine CNO-based device in a similar electrochemical testing environment. Even at 11 A g-1, the S-CNO||S-CNO device rendered an energy density (6.1 W h kg-1) at a deliverable power density of 5.5 kW kg-1, indicating a very good rate capability and power management during peak power delivery applications. Furthermore, it showed a high degree of electrochemical reversibility with excellent cycling stability, retaining ∼95% of its initial capacitance after more than 10 000 repetitive charge-discharge cycles at an applied current density of 5 A g-1.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a strong oxidizer that causes non-selective oxidation of sulfide minerals, and its influence on bismuth sulfide ores is not well-documented. In this study, H2O2 was proposed as an alternative bismuthinite depressant, and its effect on a Mo-Bi-containing ore was intensively investigated by batch flotation tests. Results showed that the addition of H2O2 significantly destabilized the froth phase, thus decreasing the solids and water recovery. The recovery of bismuth in molybdenum concentrate was dramatically decreased to 4.64% by H2O2 compared with that in the absence of H2O2 (i.e., 50.14%). The modified first-order kinetic model demonstrated that the flotation rate of molybdenite slightly declined after H2O2 addition, whereas that of bismuthinite was drastically reduced from 0.30 min−1 to 0.08 min−1 under the same condition. Simulation revealed that H2O2 affected the floatability of both molybdenite and bismuthinite but resulted in more detrimental effect to bismuthinite. Hence, H2O2 has the potential to act as an effective depressant in bismuth sulfide ore flotation.
