Abstract
The development of stable and efficient non-noble metal catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) can greatly promote the utilization of hydrogen energy. Herein, we investigated four potential model catalysts of the atomic cluster M4 supported on MN4-graphene substrates (M = Fe, Ni) from first-principles, i.e., Fe4@FeN4-Gr, Fe4@NiN4-Gr, Ni4@FeN4-Gr and Ni4@NiN4-Gr, respectively. Using density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the synergistic effect enhances the stability and HER activity of these supported M4@MN4-Gr. It is found that the Gibbs free energy of hydrogen adsorption (ΔGH*) of Ni4@FeN4-Gr is only -0.168 eV with the best exchange current. We further explored the pH effect on the HER performance and determined the ideal pH range of these potential model catalysts. Four model catalysts can follow the Volmer-Tafel pathway if considering the implicit solvation effect. These results provide an effective guidance for the rational design of electro-catalysts.

Abstract
Nickel@MXene quantum dots (Ni@MQDs), as novel flower-like hybrid materials, were firstly prepared through a simple reduction method. The Ni@MQDs exhibited an outstanding catalytic performance for Cr (VI) reduction with a low activation energy (Ea = 18.9 kJ mol-1) and a high kinetic constant (k = 0.4779 min-1) in the presence of formic acid (HCOOH). Density functional theory calculations demonstrated that Ni@MQDs exhibited an upshift of d-band center of active Ni atoms to promote the adsorption of both HCOOH and active H atoms, as well as an improved conductivity to boost the catalytic reaction kinetics, leading to the most favorable catalytic performance. This work may open up a new avenue towards the design and synthesis of novel MQDs-based hybrid catalysts for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Exploring high-efficiency metal-free electrocatalysts towards N2 reduction reaction (NRR) is of great interest for the development of electrocatalytic N2 fixation technology. Herein, we combined boron nitride quantum dots (BNQDs) and graphitic carbon nitride (C3N4) to design a metal-free BNQDs/C3N4 heterostructure as an effective and durable NRR catalyst. The electronically coupled BNQDs/C3N4 presented an NH3 yield as high as 72.3 μg h-1 mg-1 (-0.3 V) and a Faradaic efficiency of 19.5% (-0.2 V), far superior to isolated BNQDs and C3N4, and outperforming nearly all previously reported metal-free catalysts. Theoretical computations unveiled that the N2 activation could be drastically enhanced at the BNQDs-C3N4 interface where interfacial BNQDs and C3N4 cooperatively adsorb N2 and stabilize *N2H intermediate, leading to the significantly promoted NRR process with an ultra-low overpotential of 0.23 V.

Abstract
Non-enzymatic electrochemical sensors possess superior stability and affordability in comparison to natural enzyme-based counterparts. A large variety of nanomaterials have been introduced as enzyme mimicking with appreciable sensitivity and detection limit for various analytes of which glucose and H2O2 have been mostly investigated. The nanomaterials made from noble metal, non-noble metal, and metal composites, as well as carbon and their derivatives in various architectures, have been extensively proposed over the past years. Three-dimensional (3D) transducers especially realized from the hybrids of carbon nanomaterials either with metal-based nanocatalysts or heteroatom dopants are favorable owing to low cost, good electrical conductivity, and stability. In this critical review, we evaluate the current strategies to create such nanomaterials to serve as non-enzymatic transducers. Laser writing has emerged as a powerful tool for the next generation of devices owing to their low cost and resultant remarkable performance that are highly attractive to non-enzymatic transducers. So far, only few works have been reported, but in the coming years, more and more research on this topic is foreseeable.

Abstract
We demonstrate that MoS2 quantum dots (QDs) can be an effective and durable catalyst for the electrocatalytic N2 reduction reaction (NRR), showing an NH3 yield of 39.6 μg h-1 mg-1 with a faradaic efficiency of 12.9% at -0.3 V, far superior to MoS2 nanosheets and outperforming most reported NRR catalysts. Density functional theory computations unravel that the MoS2 QDs can dramatically facilitate N2 adsorption and activation via side-on patterns, resulting in an energetically-favored enzymatic pathway with an ultra-low overpotential of 0.29 V.

Abstract
Microcystin detection is of great significance and an urgent need because of its damage to water environments and human health. In this paper, an electrochemical aptasensor was developed by combining a 3D cobalt-based oxide modified boron and nitrogen co-doped graphene hydrogel (3D BNG/Co) with a DNA aptamer for sensitive detection of microcystin (MC-LR) through differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) technology. By using 3D BNG/Co as a catalyst and [Fe(CN)6]3-/4- as a redox probe, the catalytic current signal was 3.8 times higher than that of the bare glassy carbon electrode, which can better monitor the electron conduction on the electrode surface and then improve the sensitivity. The as-fabricated electrochemical aptasensor displayed a wide detection range (0.1-1000 pmol L-1), low detection limit (0.03 pmol L-1), good sensitivity, and repeatability, which has potential applications for the protection of the ecological environment and human health.

Abstract
The growing importance of nanomaterials toward the detection of neurotransmitter molecules has been chronicled in this review. Neurotransmitters (NTs) are chemicals that serve as messengers in synaptic transmission and are key players in brain functions. Abnormal levels of NTs are associated with numerous psychotic and neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore, their sensitive and robust detection is of great significance in clinical diagnostics. For more than three decades, electrochemical sensors have made a mark toward clinical detection of NTs. The superiority of these electrochemical sensors lies in their ability to enable sensitive, simple, rapid, and selective determination of analyte molecules while remaining relatively inexpensive. Additionally, these sensors are capable of being integrated in robust, portable, and miniaturized devices to establish point-of-care diagnostic platforms. Nanomaterials have emerged as promising materials with significant implications for electrochemical sensing due to their inherent capability to achieve high surface coverage, superior sensitivity, and rapid response in addition to simple device architecture and miniaturization. Considering the enormous significance of the levels of NTs in biological systems and the advances in sensing ushered in with the integration of nanotechnology in electrochemistry, the analysis of NTs by employing nanomaterials as interface materials in various matrices has emerged as an active area of research. This review explores the advancements made in the field of electrochemical sensors for the sensitive and selective determination of NTs which have been described in the past two decades with a distinctive focus on extremely innovative attributes introduced by nanotechnology.

Abstract
Existing electrochemical biosensing platforms, using traditional rigid and unstretchable electrodes, cannot monitor the biological signaling molecules released by cells in a mechanically deformed state in real time. Here, a stretchable and flexible electrochemical sensor was developed based on nickel metal-organic framework composite/Au nanoparticle-coated carbon nanotubes (Ni-MOF composite/AuNPs/CNTs) for sensitive detection of dopamine (DA) released by C6 living cells in real time. A Ni-MOF composite was obtained by introducing Ni, NiO, and a carbon frame onto the surface of two-dimensional (2D) Ni-MOF nanosheets using an efficient one-step calcination method. The hybrid of Ni-MOF composite/AuNPs/CNTs that deposited on the poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) film endowed the sensor with excellent electrochemical performance with a wide linear range of 50 nM to 15 μM and a high sensitivity of 1250 mA/(cm2 M) and also provided the sensor with desirable stability against mechanical deformation. Furthermore, the stretchable electrode also displayed good cellular compatibility while C6 living cells can be cultured and proliferated on it with strong adhesion. Then, the DA released by C6 living cells with chemical induction in both natural and stretched states was monitored using our stretchable and flexible electrochemical sensor in real time. This indicates that our new design of flexible Ni-MOF composite/AuNPs/CNTs/PDMS (NACP) film electrodes provides more opportunities for the detection of chemical signals released from cells and soft living organisms even under mechanically deformed states.

Abstract
Graphene is one of the astounding recent advancements in current science and one of the most encouraging materials for application in cutting-edge electronic gadgets. Graphene and its derivatives like graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide have emerged as significant nanomaterials in the area of sensors. Furthermore, doping of graphene and its derivatives with heteroatoms (B, N, P, S, I, Br, Cl and F) alters their electronic and chemical properties which are best suited for the construction of economical sensors of practical utility. This review recapitulates the developments in graphene materials as emerging electrochemical, ultrasensitive explosive, gas, glucose and biological sensors for various molecules with greater sensitivity, selectivity and a low limit of detection. Apart from the most important turn of events, the properties and incipient utilization of the ever evolving family of heteroatom-doped graphene are also discussed. This review article encompasses a wide range of heteroatom-doped graphene materials as sensors for the detection of NH3, NO2, H2O2, heavy metal ions, dopamine, bleomycinsulphate, acetaminophen, caffeic acid, chloramphenicol and trinitrotoluene. In addition, heteroatom-doped graphene materials were also explored for sensitivity and selectivity with respect to interfering analytes present in the system. Finally, the review article concludes with future perspectives for the advancement of heteroatom-doped graphene materials.

Abstract
The exceptional electrical, thermal, optical and mechanical properties have made two dimensional sp2 hybridized graphene a material of choice in both academic as well as industrial research. In the last few years, researchers have devoted their efforts towards the development of graphene/polymer, graphene/metal nanoparticle and graphene/ceramic nanocomposites. These materials display excellent mechanical, electrical, thermal, catalytic, magnetic and optical properties which cannot be obtained separately from the individual components. Fascinating physical and chemical properties are displayed by noble metal nanomaterials and thus they represent model building blocks for modifying nanoscale structures for diverse applications extending from catalysis, optics to nanomedicine. Insertion of noble metal (Au, Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) into chemically derived graphene is thus of primary importance to open new avenues for both materials in various fields where the specific properties of each material act synergistically to provide hybrid materials with exceptional performances. This review attempts to summarize the different synthetic procedures for the preparation of Ag and Au NPs/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) composites. The synthesis processes of metal NPs/rGO composites are categorised into in-situ and ex-situ techniques. The in-situ approach consists of simultaneous reduction of metal salts and GO to obtain metal NPs/rGO nanocomposite materials, while in the ex-situ process, the metal NPs of desired size and shape are first synthesized and then transferred onto the GO or rGO matrix. The application of the Ag NPs and Au NPs/rGO composite materials in the area of biomedical (drug delivery and photothermal therapy) and biosensing are the focus of this review article.

Abstract
Background:
Catecholamine drugs are a family of electroactive pharmaceutics, which are
widely analyzed through electrochemical methods. However, for low level online determination and
monitoring of these compounds, which is very important for clinical and biological studies, modified
electrodes having high signal to noise ratios are needed. Numerous materials including nanomaterials
have been widely used as electrode modifies for these families during the years. Among them, graphene
and its family, due to their remarkable properties in electrochemistry, were extensively used in
modification of electrochemical sensors.
Objective:
In this review, working electrodes which have been modified with graphene and its derivatives
and applied for electroanalyses of some important catecholamine drugs are considered.

Abstract
Phosphorus doping is an effective approach to tailor the surface chemistry of carbon materials. In this work, two-dimensional graphene, as a simplified model for all sp2 hybrid carbon allotropes, is employed to explore the surface chemistry of P-doped carbon materials. Thermally reduced graphene oxide, with abundant residual oxygen functionalities, is doped by phosphorus heteroatoms through H3PO4 activation, followed by passivation in an inert atmosphere. The structural evolution of the phosphorus species in the carbon lattice during the thermal treatment is systematically studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Raman spectroscopy with the assistance of first-principles calculations. The C3-P═O configuration is identified as the most stable structure in the graphene lattice and plays a key role in stabilizing the electrochemical interface between the electrode and electrolyte. These features enable an electrode based on P-doped graphene to exhibit an enlarged potential window of 1.5 V in an aqueous electrolyte, a remarkable improved cycling stability, and an ultralow leak current. Therefore, this contribution provides insights for designing phosphorus-doped carbon materials toward electrocatalysis, energy-related applications, and so forth.

Abstract
We herein report the preparation of unique heteroatom-doped and carbon-based AuAg alloy nanoparticles (NPs) via the pyrolysis of a structurally defined octanuclear heterometallic Au(i)-Ag(i) cluster [Au4Ag4(Dppy)4(Tab)4(MeCN)4](PF6)8 (2, Dppy = diphenylphosphine-2-pyridine and Tab = 4-(trimethylammonio)benzenethiolate). This cluster-precursor approach exerts a fine control over the spatial arrangement, size and uniformity of the AuAg alloy NPs as well as the doped heteroatoms (P, N, F and S). The optimized material prepared at 450 °C efficiently catalyzes the oxidative coupling of anilines to yield azobenzenes under mild conditions.
