Abstract
Non-noble transition metal (TM)-based compounds have recently become a focal point of extensive research interest as electrocatalysts for the two electron oxygen reduction (2e- ORR) process. To efficiently drive this reaction, these TM-based electrocatalysts must bear unique physiochemical properties, which are strongly dependent on their phase structures. Consequently, adopting engineering strategies toward the phase structure has emerged as a cutting-edge scientific pursuit, crucial for achieving high activity, selectivity, and stability in the electrocatalytic process. This comprehensive review addresses the intricate field of phase engineering applied to non-noble TM-based compounds for 2e- ORR. First, the connotation of phase engineering and fundamental concepts related to oxygen reduction kinetics and thermodynamics are succinctly elucidated. Subsequently, the focus shifts to a detailed discussion of various phase engineering approaches, including elemental doping, defect creation, heterostructure construction, coordination tuning, crystalline design, and polymorphic transformation to boost or revive the 2e- ORR performance (selectivity, activity, and stability) of TM-based catalysts, accompanied by an insightful exploration of the phase-performance correlation. Finally, the review proposes fresh perspectives on the current challenges and opportunities in this burgeoning field, together with several critical research directions for the future development of non-noble TM-based electrocatalysts.

Abstract
Developing earth-abundant and highly effective electrocatalysts for electrocatalytic water splitting is a prerequisite for the upcoming hydrogen energy society. Recently, manganese-based materials have been one of the most promising candidates to replace noble metal catalysts due to their natural abundance, low cost, adjustable electronic properties, and excellent chemical stability. Although some achievements have been made in the past decades, their performance is still far lower than that of Pt. Therefore, further research is needed to improve the performance of manganese-based catalytic materials. In this review, we summarize the research progress on the application of manganese-based materials as catalysts for electrolytic water splitting. We first introduce the mechanism of electrocatalytic water decomposition using a manganese-based electrocatalyst. We then thoroughly discuss the optimization strategy used to enhance the catalytic activity of manganese-based electrocatalysts, including doping and defect engineering, interface engineering, and phase engineering. Finally, we present several future design opportunities for highly efficient manganese-based electrocatalysts.

Abstract
The biocatalytic design of nanomaterials with enzyme-like activity is considered a reliable and promising toolkit for the generation of diagnostic agents in complex biological microenvironments. However, the preparation of nanomaterials while maintaining a high catalytic activity in tumor cells (pH 6.0-6.5) poses a prominent challenge. Herein, we constructed a biomimetic enzyme-trigged dual-mode system with colorimetry at 652 nm and photothermal biosensors to detect glutathione based on hollow MnO2-nanosheet-decorated Ag nanowires (Ag@MnO2) as an oxidase-like nanozyme. As expected, Ag@MnO2 catalyzed the oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) in the absence of H2O2, leading to a blue-colored oxidized TMB (oxTMB) that displayed oxidase-like activity in pH 6.0. Interestingly, the portable dual-mode colorimetry and photothermal method for GSH was developed based on the redox reaction between GSH and oxTMB. This detection method exhibited a wide linear range of 0.1-55 μM for GSH with a low detection limit of 0.08 μM. This work highlights a new insight into nanotechnology by taking advantage of biomimetic design in biological analysis.

Abstract
The development of efficient and stable nanomaterial electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is of great significance for renewable energy conversion via water electrolysis. Herein, we have developed a novel class of bimetallic RuM (M = Ni, Co) hollow nanorods (HNRs) through a facile Fe3+ etching strategy, as electrocatalysts for enhancing the HER. Morphological physical characterization and electrochemical tests demonstrated that RuM (M = Ni, Co) HNRs with hollow structures can effectively enhance electrocatalytic activity due to their high specific surface areas. Impressively, the RuNi HNRs exhibited superior HER performance with an overpotential of merely 25.6 mV in 1 M KOH solution at 10 mA cm-2, which is significantly lower than that of commercial Pt/C (44.7 mV). Moreover, the as prepared RuNi HNRs showed excellent stability and could continuously work at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 for 40 h with a negligible increase in potential. The Ru-based HNRs also showed high HER activity in an acidic solution. This study paves a new way for the universal fabrication of bimetallic hollow structured nanomaterials as efficient electrocatalysts for boosting the HER.

Abstract
Tuning the electronic state of a nanocatalyst is of vital importance for elevating its catalytic performance toward oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, a cation-anion dual doping strategy has been proposed for modifying the electronic structure of CoP via doping Fe and S atoms. Impressively, Fe doping has been demonstrated to be favorable for improving the carrier density of CoP to produce more hydroxyl radicals (•OH), while S doping can further modify the electronic structure of CoP to improve the charge-transfer characteristics, thereby synergistically decreasing the energy barrier for the transformation of O* to OOH* and promoting the electrocatalytic OER performance. More importantly, the highly open nanobox structure is also beneficial for the exposure of more accessible catalytically active sites, which can substantially facilitate the electron and mass transport, leading to the superb catalytic OER performance. The successful modulation of OER performance via dual-doping strategy will pose a new strategy for designing more advanced nanocatalysts for energy-related catalysis process.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a vital endogenous gas signal molecule undertaking numerous physiological functions such as biological regulation and cytoprotection. Herein, we developed an electrochemical (EC) and photothermal (PT) dual-readout signals method for H2S detection based on a novel biosynthesis-mediated Ni-Fe-Cu LDH-to-sulfides transformation strategy. Interestingly, the Cu2+-based Ni-Fe LDH (Ni-Fe-Cu LDH) can act as the Cu2+ source to react with H2S, resulting in the in-situ generation of CuxS on Ni-Fe-Cu LDH surfaces. Because of the EC signal and intrinsic near-infrared (NIR) PT conversion ability of CuxS under 808 nm laser irradiation, the obtained CuxS@Ni-Fe-Cu LDH is applied to stimulate EC signal and temperature readout. By this means, a dual-readout signal mode is established for H2S detection. Under the optimum conditions, this combination of EC and PT methods displays a wide linear range for H2S to 0.1 μM-90 μM and 50 μM-400 μM, respectively, with a low detection limit of 0.09 μM. In addition, the practicality of Ni-Fe-Cu LDH is verified by determination of endogenous H2S in living cells. This work not only provides a promising application for H2S diagnosis but also exhibits the new characteristic of Ni-Fe-Cu LDH nanomaterials as signal transduction tags.

Abstract
Defect engineering and interface engineering are two efficient approaches to promote the electrocatalytic performance of transition metal oxides (TMOs) by modulating the local electronic structure and inducing a synergistic effect but usually require costly and complicated processes. Herein, a facile electrochemical etching method is proposed for the controllable tailoring of the defects in a three-dimensional (3D) open nanonetcage CoZnRuOx heterostructure via the in situ electrochemical etching to remove partial ZnO. The highly open 3D nanostructures, numerous defects, and multicomponent heterointerfaces endow the CoZnRuOx nanonetcages with more accessible active sites, moderated local electronic structure, and strong synergistic effect, thereby enabling them to not only deliver an ultralow overpotential (244 mV @ 10 mA cm-2) for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) but also high-performance overall water electrolysis by coupling with commercial Pt/C, with a potential of 1.52 V at 10 mA cm-2. Moreover, experiments and characterizations also reveal that the remaining Zn2+ can facilitate OH- adsorption and charge transfer, which also further improves the electrocatalytic OER performance. This work proposes a promising strategy for creating surface defects in heterostructured TMOs and provides insights to understand the defect- and interface-induced enhancement of OER electrocatalysis.

Abstract
Electrocatalytic water splitting has great research prospects in the production of green hydrogen energy, and electrocatalysts are the prerequisite. As widely employed efficient electrocatalysts, hollow nanostructures have attracted a lot of research attention due to their excellent catalytic activity and structural stability. Moreover, the abundant catalytically active sites and tunable morphology also make hollow nanomaterials promising electrocatalysts for water splitting. Despite these advantages, the industrial applications of these hollow nanocatalysts are impeded by limitations like the lack of effective synthesis methods and unclear formation mechanisms. Therefore, extensive efforts have been devoted to the development of efficient synthesis strategies to boost the development of more efficient hollow electrocatalysts, and great progress has been achieved in recent years. To gain a better understanding of the rapid development of hollow nanocatalysts for water splitting, we herein organize a review to summarize the recent synthetic methods and advantages of hollow materials with different dimensions. The specific advantages of hollow nanomaterials in electrocatalytic water splitting, such as abundant active sites, a stable structure, high mass transfer efficiency, and reduced aggregation of catalytic particles, are also summarized. Finally, the challenges and prospects of hollow nanostructures with multiple dimensions in electrocatalytic water splitting are further explored.

Abstract
Rational design and construction of well-defined hollow heterostructured nanomaterials assembled by ultrathin nanosheets overtakes crucial role in developing high-efficiency oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts. Herein, a reliable metal-organic framework-mediated and cation-exchange strategy to tune the geometric structure and multicomponent heterostructures has been proposed for the fabrication of hollow CoWO4-Co(OH)2 hierarchical nanoboxes assembled by rich ultrathin nanosheets. Benefiting from the hierarchical hollow nanostructure, the CoWO4-Co(OH)2 nanoboxes offer plenty of metal active centers available for reaction intermediates. Moreover, the well-defined nanointerfaces between CoWO4 and Co(OH)2 can function as the bridge for boosting the efficient electron transfer from CoWO4 to Co(OH)2. As a consequence, the optimized CoWO4-Co(OH)2 nanoboxes can exhibit outstanding electrocatalytic performance toward OER by delivering 10 mA cm-2 with a low overpotential of 280 mV and a small Tafel slope of 70.6 mV dec-1 as well as outstanding electrochemical stability. More importantly, this CoWO4-Co(OH)2 heterostructured nanocatalyst can couple with Pt/C to drive overall water splitting to achieve 10 mA cm-2 with a voltage of 1.57 V.

Abstract
Silk fibroin has become a promising biomaterial owing to its remarkable mechanical property, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and sufficient supply. However, it is difficult to directly construct materials with other formats except for yarn, fabric and nonwoven based on natural silk. A promising bioinspired strategy is firstly extracting desired building blocks of silk, then reconstructing them into functional regenerated silk fibroin (RSF) materials with controllable formats and structures. This strategy could give it excellent processability and modifiability, thus well meet the diversified needs in biomedical applications. Recently, to engineer RSF materials with properties similar to or beyond the hierarchical structured natural silk, novel extraction and reconstruction strategies have been developed. In this review, we seek to describe varied building blocks of silk at different levels used in biomedical field and their effective extraction and reconstruction strategies. This review also present recent discoveries and research progresses on how these functional RSF biomaterials used in advanced biomedical applications, especially in the fields of cell-material interactions, soft tissue regeneration, and flexible bioelectronic devices. Finally, potential study and application for future opportunities, and current challenges for these bioinspired strategies and corresponding usage were also comprehensively discussed. In this way, it aims to provide valuable references for the design and modification of novel silk biomaterials, and further promote the high-quality-utilization of silk or other biopolymers.

Abstract
Heteroatom doping plays a crucial role in improving the electrocatalytic performance of catalysts towards water splitting. Owing to the existence of Ru-O moieties, Ru is thus emerging as an ideal dopant for promoting the electrocatalytic performance for water splitting by modifying the electronic structure, introducing extra active sites, improving electronic conductivity, and inducing a strong synergistic effect. Benefitting from these advantages, Ru-doped nanomaterials have been widely investigated and employed as advanced electrocatalysts for water splitting, and many excellent Ru-doped electrocatalysts have been successfully developed. In an effort to obtain a better understanding of the influence of Ru doping on the electrocatalytic water splitting performance of nanocatalysts, we herein summarize the recent progress of Ru-doped electrocatalysts by focusing on the synthesis strategies and advantageous merits. Applications of these new materials in water electrolysis technology are also discussed with emphasis on future directions in this active field of research.
