Abstract
Efficient field enhancement effects through plasmonic chemistry for ultrasensitive biosensing still face a great challenge. Herein, nanoconfinement engineering accumulation and synergistic effects are used to develop a "plasmonic storms" strategy with a high field enhancement effect, and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are used as active sites for a proof of concept because of their distinctive localized surface plasmon resonance and neighborly coupled electromagnetic field. Briefly, a large number of AuNPs are selectively and accurately stacked in the confined nanocavity of the bowl-like nanostructure through an in situ-synthesized strategy, which provides a space for strong coupling of electromagnetic fields between these adjacent AuNPs, forming "plasmonic storms" with an enhanced field that is 3 orders of magnitude higher than that of free AuNPs. The proposed nanoconfinement-engineered "plasmonic storms" are demonstrated by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and photothermal experiments and theoretically visualized by finite element simulation. Finally, the proposed "plasmonic storms" are used for enhanced colorimetric/SERS/photothermal immunochromatographic assay to detect Salmonella typhimurium with the help of a machine learning algorithm, achieving a low limit of detection of 142 CFU mL-1, highlighting the potential of nanoconfinement in biosensing.

Abstract
Inspired by the attractive structures and functions of natural matter (such as cells, organelles and enzymes), chemists are constantly exploring innovative material platforms to mimic natural catalytic systems, particularly liquid-phase hydrogenations, which are of great significance for chemical upgrading and synthesis. Hollow structured nanoreactors (HSNRs), featuring unique nanoarchitectures and advantageous properties, offer new opportunities for achieving excellent catalytic activity, selectivity, stability and sustainability. Notwithstanding the great progress made in HSNRs, there still remain the challenges of precise synthetic chemistry, and mesoscale catalytic kinetic investigation, and smart catalysis. To this extent, we provide an overview of recent developments in the synthetic chemistry of HSNRs, the unique characteristics of these materials and catalytic mechanisms in HSNRs. Finally, a brief outlook, challenges and further opportunities for their synthetic methodologies and catalytic application are discussed. This review might promote the creation of further HSNRs, realize the sustainable production of fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals, and contribute to the development of materials science.

Abstract
Designing porous carbon materials with metal phosphides as host materials holds promise for enhancing the cyclability and durability of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries by mitigating sulfur poisoning and exhibiting high electrocatalytic activity. Nevertheless, it is urgent to precisely control the size of metal phosphides to further optimize the polysulfide conversion reaction kinetics of Li-S batteries. Herein, a subtlety regulation strategy was proposed to obtain ultra-small CoP nanoparticles-decorated hollow carbon nanospheres (CoP@C) by using spherical polyelectrolyte brush (SPB) as the template with stabilizing assistance from polydopamine coating, which also works as carbon source. Leveraging the electrostatic interaction between SPB and Co2+, ultra-small Co particles with sizes measuring 5.5±2.6 nm were endowed after calcination. Subsequently, through a gas-solid phosphating process, these Co particles were converted into CoP nanoparticles with significantly finer sizes (7.1±3.1 nm) compared to state-of-the-art approaches. By uniformly distributing the electrocatalyst nanoparticles on hollow carbon nanospheres, CoP@C facilitated the acceleration of Li-ion diffusion and enhanced the conversion reaction kinetics of polysulfides through adsorption-diffusion synergy. As a result, Li-S batteries utilizing the CoP@C/S cathode demonstrated an initial specific discharge capacity of 850.0 mAh g-1 at 1.0 C, with a low-capacity decay rate of 0.03 % per cycle.

Abstract
Exploring new carbon-based electrode materials is quite necessary for enhancing capacitive deionization (CDI). Here, hollow mesoporous carbon spheres (HMCSs)/metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) derived carbon materials (NC(M)/HMCSs and NC(M)@HMCSs) are successfully prepared by interface-coating and space-encapsulating design, respectively. The obtained NC(M)/HMCSs and NC(M)@HMCSs possess a hierarchical hollow nanoarchitecture with abundant nitrogen doping, high specific surface area, and abundant meso-/microporous pores. These merits are conducive to rapid ion diffusion and charge transfer during the adsorption process. Compared to NC(M)/HMCSs, NC(M)@HMCSs exhibit superior electrochemical performance due to their better utilization of the internal space of hollow carbon, forming an interconnected 3D framework. In addition, the introduction of Ni ions is more conducive to the synergistic effect between ZIF(M)-derived carbon and N-doped carbon shell compared with other ions (Mn, Co, Cu ions). The resultant Ni-1-800-based CDI device exhibits excellent salt adsorption capacity (SAC, 37.82 mg g-1) and good recyclability. This will provide a new direction for the MOF nanoparticle-driven assembly strategy and the application of hierarchical hollow carbon nanoarchitecture to CDI.

Abstract
Resin-derived hard carbons have shown great advantages in serving as promising anode materials for sodium-ion batteries due to their flexible microstructure tunability. However, it remains a daunting challenge to rationally regulate the pseudo-graphitic crystallite and defect of hard carbon toward advanced sodium storage performance. Herein, a molecular engineering strategy is demonstrated to modulate the cross-linking degree of phenolic resin and thus optimize the microstructure of hard carbon. Remarkably, the resorcinol endows resin with a moderate cross-linking degree, which can finely tune the pseudo-graphitic structure with enlarged interlayer spacing and restricted surface defects. As a consequence, the optimal hard carbon delivers a notable reversible capacity of 334.3 mAh g-1 at 0.02 A g-1, a high initial Coulombic efficiency of 82.1%, superior rate performance of 103.7 mAh g-1 at 2 A g-1, and excellent cycling durability over 5000 cycles. Furthermore, kinetic analysis and in situ Raman spectroscopy are performed to reveal the electrochemical advantage and sodium storage mechanism. This study fundamentally sheds light on the molecular design of resin-based hard carbons to advance sodium energy for scale-up applications.

Abstract
Mesoporous materials endowed with a hollow structure offer ample opportunities due to their integrated functionalities; however, current approaches mainly rely on the recruitment of solid rigid templates, and feasible strategies with better simplicity and tunability remain infertile. Here, we report a novel emulsion-driven coassembly method for constructing a highly tailored hollow architecture in mesoporous carbon, which can be completely processed on oil-water liquid interfaces instead of a solid rigid template. Such a facile and flexible methodology relies on the subtle employment of a 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene (TMB) additive, which acts as both an emulsion template and a swelling agent, leading to a compatible integration of oil droplets and composite micelles. The solution-based assembly process also shows high controllability, endowing the hollow carbon mesostructure with a uniform morphology of hundreds of nanometers and tunable cavities from 0 to 130 nm in diameter and porosities (mesopore sizes 2.5-7.7 nm; surface area 179-355 m2 g-1). Because of the unique features in permeability, diffusion, and surface access, the hollow mesoporous carbon nanospheres exhibit excellent high rate and cycling performances for sodium-ion storage. Our study reveals a cooperative assembly on the liquid interface, which could provide an alternative toolbox for constructing delicate mesostructures and complex hierarchies toward advanced technologies.

Abstract
Selective separation of ethylene and ethane (C2H4/C2H6) is a formidable challenge due to their close molecular size and boiling point. Compared to industry-used cryogenic distillation, adsorption separation would offer a more energy-efficient solution when an efficient adsorbent is available. Herein, a class of C2H4/C2H6 separation adsorbents, doped carbon molecular sieves (d-CMSs) is reported which are prepared from the polymerization and subsequent carbonization of resorcinol, m-phenylenediamine, and formaldehyde in ethanol solution. The study demonstrated that the polymer precursor themselves can be a versatile platform for modifying the pore structure and surface functional groups of their derived d-CMSs. The high proportion of pores centered at 3.5 Å in d-CMSs contributes significantly to achieving a superior kinetic selectivity of 205 for C2H4/C2H6 separation. The generated pyrrolic-N and pyridinic-N functional sites in d-CMSs contribute to a remarkable elevation of Henry selectivity to 135 due to the enhancement of the surface polarity in d-CMSs. By balancing the synergistic effects of kinetics and thermodynamics, d-CMSs achieve efficient separation of C2H4/C2H6. Polymer-grade C2H4 of 99.71% purity can be achieved with 75% recovery using the devised d-CMSs as reflected in a two-bed vacuum swing adsorption simulation.

Abstract
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have become the most popular portable secondary energy storage facilities. However, the limited lithium resource results in possible unsustainable development. Potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) are considered promising alternatives to LIBs because of their high resource availability, low cost, and environmentally friendly features. In this field, high energy density layered cathodes and carbon-based anodes are also the main research objectives. However, compared to the most appealing alternative sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), despite having various theoretical advantages, PIBs exhibit poorer electrochemical performance in practice. Their poor capacity retention and narrow working voltage range seriously limit their applications. The performance of the electrodes is usually considered an important factor for battery performance, life, and safety. To solve these problems, many significant research studies have been carried out in the last decade, achieving numerous breakthroughs. Nevertheless, there are still many drawbacks and unclear mechanisms. In this comprehensive review, we examine the current state of high-performance layered oxide cathodes, electrolytes, and carbon-based anodes, to identify potential candidates for PIBs. Our focus lies on their structural characteristics, interface properties, underlying mechanisms, and modification techniques. The viewpoints of these advanced strategies are integrated, and concise development suggestions and strategies are subsequently proposed.

Abstract
The issue of heavy metal contamination in water is a global concern, and the development of highly efficient adsorbent materials is crucial for the removal and detoxification of heavy metals. Polymer-based materials have emerged as a promising class of adsorbents due to their ability to capture heavy metal pollutants and reduce them to less toxic forms. The limited surface area of conventional polymer adsorbents makes them less effective for high-capacity adsorption. Herein, we present a low-temperature steam activation approach to address this challenge. This activation approach leads to a remarkable increase of over 20 times in the surface area of concave aminophenol-formaldehyde (APF) polymer nanospheres (from 45 to 961 m2/g) while preserving their reductive functional groups. The activated concave APF nanospheres were evaluated for their adsorption capabilities towards two typical heavy metal ions (i.e., Cr(VI) and Cd(II)) in aqueous solutions. The maximum adsorption capacities achieved were 1054 mg g-1 for Cr(VI) and 342 mg g-1 for Cd(II), which are among the highest performances reported in the literature and are much higher than the capacities of the non-activated APF nanospheres. Additionally, approximately 71.5 % of Cr(VI) was simultaneously reduced to Cr(III) through the benzenoid amine pathway during adsorption, highlighting the crucial role of the steam activation strategy in enhancing the capability of polymer adsorbents.

Zheng ZL, Wu MM, Zeng X, Zhu XW, Luo D, Chen XL, Chen YF, Yang GZ, Bin DS, Zhou XP, Li D. Facile Fabrication of Hollow Nanoporous Carbon Architectures by Controlling MOF Crystalline Inhomogeneity for Ultra-Stable Na-Ion Storage. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202400012. [PMID: 38340327 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202400012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/01/2024] [Revised: 02/06/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024]
Abstract
Hollow nanoporous carbon architectures (HNCs) present significant utilitarian value for a wide variety of applications. Facile and efficient preparation of HNCs has long been pursued but still remains challenging. Herein, we for the first time demonstrate that single-component metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) crystals, rather than the widely reported hybrid ones which necessitate tedious operations for preparation, could enable the facile and versatile syntheses of functional HNCs. By controlling the growth kinetics, the MOFs crystals (STU-1) are readily engineered into different shapes with designated styles of crystalline inhomogeneity. A subsequent one-step pyrolysis of these MOFs with intraparticle difference can induce a simultaneous self-hollowing and carbonization process, thereby producing various functional HNCs including yolk-shell polyhedrons, hollow microspheres, mesoporous architectures, and superstructures. Superior to the existing methods, this synthetic strategy relies only on the complex nature of single-component MOFs crystals without involving tedious operations like coating, etching, or ligand exchange, making it convenient, efficient, and easy to scale up. An ultra-stable Na-ion battery anode is demonstrated by the HNCs with extraordinary cyclability (93 % capacity retention over 8000 cycles), highlighting a high level of functionality of the HNCs.

Abstract
The synthesis of nanoparticles with a hollow and anisotropic structure have attracted considerable interest in synthetic methodology and diverse potential applications, but endowing them with delicate control of the hollow structure and outer anisotropic morphology remains a significant challenge. In this study, anisotropic nanoparticles with hat-like morphology are prepared via a kinetics-controlled growth and dissolution strategy. Starting from forming solid polymer nanospheres with location-specific compositional chemistry distribution based on the distinct reactivity and growth kinetics of two reactants. After etching by acetone, the inhomogeneity nanospheres transformed to hat-like nanoparticles through the kinetics-controlled dissolution of two kinds of precursors. Due to chemical etching and repolymerization reactions occurring within a single nanospheres, an autonomous asymmetrical repolymerization and concave process are observed, which is novel at the nanoscale. Moreover, regulating the amount of ammonia significantly impacts the growth kinetics of precursors, primarily affecting the composition and subsequent dissolution process of solid polymer nanospheres, which play an important role in constructing polymer nanoparticles with varying morphologies and internal structures. The as-synthesized hat-like carbon nanoparticles with an open carbon structure, highly porous shell, and favorable N-doped functionalities demonstrate a potential candidate for lithium-sulfur batteries.

Abstract
In the present work, a theoretical design for the viability of bilayer C4N3 (bi-C4N3) as a promising host material for Li-Se battery was conducted utilizing first-principles calculations. The AA- and AB-stacking configurations of bilayer C4N3 can effectively inhibit the shuttling of high-order polyselenides through the synergistic effect of physical confinement and strong Li-N bonds. Compared to conventional electrolytes, the AA- and AB-stacking bilayer C4N3 demonstrate enhanced adsorption capabilities for the polyselenides. The anchored structures of Se8 or Li2Sen (n = 1, 2, 4, 6, 8) molecules within the bilayer C4N3 exhibit high electrical conductivities, which are beneficial for enhancing the electrochemical performance. The catalytic effects of AA- and AB-stacking bilayer C4N3 were investigated by the reduction of Se8 and the energy barrier associated with the decomposition of Li2Se. The AA- and AB-stacking bilayer C4N3 can significantly decrease the activation barrier and promote the decomposition of Li2Se. The mean square displacement (MSD) curves reveal the pronounceably sluggish Li-ions diffusions in polyselenides within the AA- and AB-stacking bilayer C4N3, which in turn demonstrates the notable prospects in mitigating the shuttle effect.

Abstract
The development of efficient adsorbents for heavy metal pollution, especially five toxic heavy metals, has attracted great research interest. Polymer-based adsorbents have aroused research value for their abundant functional groups and high porosity to the ability to capture metal ions. We designed a sulfhydryl-functionalized polymer microcomposite to take up Cr(VI), As(III), Cd(II), and Pb(II). The adsorption capacity achieved was 64.2 mg g-1 for Cr(VI), 44.9 mg g-1 for As(III), 35.5 mg g-1 for Cd(II), and 18.2 mg g-1 for Pb(II). Langmuir and Sips isotherm model is dominant for As(III), Cd(II), and Pb(II) adsorption. Pseudo-second-order kinetic models can better describe the adsorption behavior of Cr(VI), implying that chemisorption is accompanied by Cr(VI) adsorption. Cr(VI) simultaneous reduction to Cr(III) through the benzenoid amine oxidate pathway was the dominant mechanism, precipitation for Cd(II) adsorption was convinced, and chelation between As(III)/Pb(II) and─SH group and complexation between Pb(II) and C═O or benzene hydroxyl were a plausible mechanism for As(III) and Pb(II) adsorption.

Abstract
The structural characteristics of hollow carbon nanostructures (HCNs) result in intriguing physicochemical properties and various applications, especially for electrochemical energy storage applications. However, the currently solvent-based template methods to prepare HCNs are still far from meeting the facile, environment-friendly, and scalable demand. Herein, we explored a general and facile solvent-free block copolymer self-assembly approach to prepare various hollow hard carbon nanostructures, including hollow carbon nanofibers, hollow carbon Janus nanotadpoles, hollow carbon spheres, etc. It was found that the obtained HCNs possess abundant active sites, fast pathways for electrons/ions transport, and superior electronic conducting connectivity, which are promising for efficient electrochemical energy storage. Typically, the resultant hollow carbon nanofibers with a thick-walled tube deliver a high reversible capacity (431 mAh g-1) and excellent rate performance (259 mAh g-1 at 800 mA g-1) for sodium ion storage. This intelligent solvent-free block copolymer self-assembly method would inspire the design of hollow hard carbon-based nanostructures for advanced applications in various energy conversion and storage.

Abstract
Tremendous progress has been made in the field of electrochemical energy storage devices that rely on potassium-ions as charge carriers due to their abundant resources and excellent ion transport properties. Nevertheless, future practical developments not only count on advanced electrode materials with superior electrochemical performance, but also on competitive costs of electrodes for scalable production. In the past few decades, advanced carbon materials have attracted great interest due to their low cost, high selectivity, and structural suitability and have been widely investigated as functional materials for potassium-ion storage. This article provides an up-to-date overview of this rapidly developing field, focusing on recent advanced and mechanistic understanding of carbon-based electrode materials for potassium-ion batteries. In addition, we also discuss recent achievements of dual-ion batteries and conversion-type K-X (X=O2 , CO2 , S, Se, I2 ) batteries towards potential practical applications as high-voltage and high-power devices, and summarize carbon-based materials as the host for K-metal protection and possible directions for the development of potassium energy-related devices as well. Based on this, we bridge the gaps between various carbon-based functional materials structure and the related potassium-ion storage performance, especially provide guidance on carbon material design principles for next-generation potassium-ion storage devices.

Abstract
Mimicking the structures and functions of cells to create artificial organelles has spurred the development of efficient strategies for production of hollow nanoreactors with biomimetic catalytic functions. However, such structure are challenging to fabricate and are thus rarely reported. We report the design of hollow nanoreactors with hollow multishelled structure (HoMS) and spatially loaded metal nanoparticles. Starting from a molecular-level design strategy, well-defined hollow multishelled structure phenolic resins (HoMS-PR) and carbon (HoMS-C) submicron particles were accurately constructed. HoMS-C serves as an excellent, versatile platform, owing to its tunable properties with tailored functional sites for achieving precise spatial location of metal nanoparticles, internally encapsulated (Pd@HoMS-C) or externally supported (Pd/HoMS-C). Impressively, the combination of the delicate nanoarchitecture and spatially loaded metal nanoparticles endow the pair of nanoreactors with size-shape-selective molecular recognition properties in catalytic semihydrogenation, including high activity and selectivity of Pd@HoMS-C for small aliphatic substrates and Pd/HoMS-C for large aromatic substrates. Theoretical calculations provide insight into the pair of nanoreactors with distinct behaviors due to the differences in energy barrier of substrate adsorption. This work provides guidance on the rational design and accurate construction of hollow nanoreactors with precisely located active sites and a finely modulated microenvironment by mimicking the functions of cells.

Abstract
Coronavirus is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus has shown rapid proliferation and scarcity of treatments with proven effectiveness. In this way, we simulated the hospitalization of carbon nanospheres, with external active sites of the SARS-CoV-2 virus (M-Pro, S-Gly and E-Pro), which can be adsorbed or inactivated when interacting with the nanospheres. The computational procedures performed in this work were developed with the SwissDock server for molecular docking and the GROMACS software for molecular dynamics, making it possible to extract relevant data on affinity energy, distance between molecules, free Gibbs energy and mean square deviation of atomic positions, surface area accessible to solvents. Molecular docking indicates that all ligands have an affinity for the receptor's active sites. The nanospheres interact favorably with all proteins, showing promising results, especially C60, which presented the best affinity energy and RMSD values for all protein macromolecules investigated. The C60 with E-Pro exhibited the highest affinity energy of -9.361 kcal/mol, demonstrating stability in both molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations. Our RMSD calculations indicated that the nanospheres remained predominantly stable, fluctuating within a range of 2 to 3 Å. Additionally, the analysis of other structures yielded promising results that hold potential for application in other proteases.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is a powerful and rapidly growing tomographic imaging technique that allows for the non-invasive visualization of superparamagnetic nanoparticles (NPs) in living matter. Despite its potential for a wide range of applications, the intrinsic quantitative nature of MPI has not been fully exploited in biological environments. In this study, a novel NP architecture that overcomes this limitation by maintaining a virtually unchanged effective relaxation (Brownian plus Néel) even when immobilized is presented. This superparamagnetic magnetite architecture made of phenolic resin hollow spheres coated with Eu(III) containing silica nanoparticles (SMART RHESINs) was synthesized and studied. Magnetic particle spectroscopy (MPS) measurements confirm their suitability for potential MPI applications. Photobleaching studies show an unexpected photodynamic due to the fluorescence emission peak of the europium ion in combination with the phenol formaldehyde resin (PFR). Cell metabolic activity and proliferation behavior are not affected. Colocalization experiments reveal the distinct accumulation of SMART RHESINs near the Golgi apparatus. Overall, SMART RHESINs show superparamagnetic behavior and special luminescent properties without acute cytotoxicity, making them suitable for bimodal imaging probes for medical use like cancer diagnosis and treatment. SMART RHESINs have the potential to enable quantitative MPS and MPI measurements both in mobile and immobilized environments.

Abstract
We report a robust method for the facile synthesis of N-doped carbon nanospheres with uniform and tunable sizes. Instead of involving a surfactant or other templates, this synthesis relies on the incorporation of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) into the emulsion droplets of phenolic resin oligomers. The EDTA provides a high density of surface charges to effectively increase the electrostatic repulsion between the droplets and thereby prevent them from coalescing into irregular structures during polymerization-induced hardening. The EDTA-loaded polymer nanospheres are highly uniform in terms of both size and shape for easy crystallization into opaline structures. While maintaining good uniformity, the diameters of the resultant N-doped carbon nanospheres can be readily tuned from 100 to 375 nm, allowing for the fabrication of opaline lattices with brilliant structural colors. The EDTA also serves as an additional nitrogen source to promote the formation of graphitic-N, making the N-doped carbon nanospheres highly active, metal-free bifunctional electrocatalysts toward oxygen reduction and oxygen evolution reactions.

Abstract
Anisotropic mesoporous carbon (AMC) nanoparticles with asymmetric external morphologies, topological internal structure, and superior performance of carbon species are attracting great attention because of their seductive features differentiating them from symmetric nanoparticles. However, a bewildering challenge but crucial desire remains to endow them with flexibly tunable morphology and pore structure. Herein, a dual/triple-templating evolved emulsion strategy for tunable fabrication of AMC nanoparticles with distinctive defined structure by interface-energy-induced self-assembly is first reported based on a brand-new mechanism. It describes the possible formation process of the concave-cavity structure and allows for manipulation of the longitudinal and lateral sizes systematically by adjusting emulsion polarity and sodium oleate dosage, respectively. Interestingly, the internal pore structure can be rearranged into radial channels and the external morphology can realize structural transformation from concave to convex by innovatively introducing the third template n-hexanol, which is unprecedented at nanoscale. Remarkably, due to the excellent properties of carbon species and unique structural characteristics, AMC nanoparticles not only demonstrate good biocompatibility but also exhibit splendid performance in improving the dissolution and release rates of insoluble drug and enhancing the enzyme catalytic efficiency. Generally, this approach provides new inspiration and insights for expanding exquisite anisotropic nanomaterials for many potential applications.

Abstract
Carbon-based materials with high capacitance ability and fast electrosorption rate are ideal electrode materials in capacitive deionization (CDI). However, traditional carbon materials have structural limitations in electrochemical and desalination performance due to the low capacitance and poor transmission channel of the prepared electrodes. Therefore, reasonable design of electrode material structure is of great importance for achieving excellent CDI properties. Here, uniform hollow carbon materials with different morphologies (hollow carbon nanospheres, hollow carbon nanorods, hollow carbon nano-pseudoboxes, hollow carbon nano-ellipsoids, hollow carbon nano-capsules, and hollow carbon nano-peanuts) are reasonably designed through multi-step template method and calcination of polymer precursors. Hollow carbon nanospheres and hollow carbon nano-pseudoboxes exhibit better capacitance and higher salt adsorption capacity (SAC) due to their stable carbonaceous structure during calcination. Moreover, the effects of the thickness of the shell and the size of the cavity on the CDI performance are also studied. HCNSs-0.8 with thicker shell (≈20 nm) and larger cavity (≈320 nm) shows the best SAC value of 23.01 mg g-1 due to its large specific surface area (1083.20 m2 g-1 ) and rich pore size distribution. These uniform hollow carbon nanoarchitectures with functional properties have potential applications in electrochemistry related fields.

Abstract
Herein, the influence of the counter anion on the structural properties of hollow carbon spheres (HCS) support was investigated by varying the nickel metal precursor salts applied. TEM and SEM micrographs revealed the dimensional dependence of the HCS shell on the Ni precursor salt, as evidenced by thick (~42 nm) and thin (~23 nm) shells for the acetate and chloride-based salts, respectively. Importantly, the effect of the precursor salt on the textural properties of the HCS nanosupports (~565 m2/gNi(acet)) and ~607 m2/gNiCl), influenced the growth of the Ni nanoparticles, viz for the acetate-(ca 6.4 nm)- and chloride (ca 12 nm)-based salts, respectively. Further, XRD and PDF analysis showed the dependence of the reduction mechanism relating to nickel and the interaction of the nickel-carbon support on the type of counter anion used. Despite the well-known significance of the counter anion on the size and crystallinity of Ni nanoparticles, little is known about the influence of such counter anions on the physicochemical properties of the carbon support. Through this study, we highlight the importance of the choice of the Ni-salt on the size of Ni in Ni-carbon-based nanocatalysts.

Abstract
Due to the elusive structure-function relationship, traditional nanocatalysts always yield limited catalytic activity and selectivity, making them practically difficult to replace natural enzymes in wide industrial and biomedical applications. Accordingly, single-atom catalysts (SACs), defined as catalysts containing atomically dispersed active sites on a support material, strikingly show the highest atomic utilization and drastically boosted catalytic performances to functionally mimic or even outperform natural enzymes. The molecular characteristics of SACs (e.g., unique metal-support interactions and precisely located metal sites), especially single-atom iron catalysts (Fe-SACs) that have a similar catalytic structure to the catalytically active center of metalloprotease, enable the accurate identification of active centers in catalytic reactions, which afford ample opportunity for unraveling the structure-function relationship of Fe-SACs. In this review, we present an overview of the recent advances of support materials for anchoring an atomic dispersion of Fe. Subsequently, we highlight the structural designability of support materials as two sides of the same coin. Moreover, the applications described herein illustrate the utility of Fe-SACs in a broad scope of industrially and biologically important reactions. Finally, we present an outlook of the major challenges and opportunities remaining for the successful combination of single Fe atoms and catalysts.

Abstract
Hollow nanostructures with fascinating properties have inspired numerous interests in broad research fields. Cell-mimicking complex hollow architectures with precise active components distributions are particularly important, while their synthesis remains highly challenging. Herein, a "top-down" chemical surgery strategy is introduced to engrave the 3-aminophenol formaldehyde resin (APF) spheres at nanoscale. Undergoing the cleavage of (Ar)CN bonds with ethanol as chemical scissors and subsequent repolymerization process, the Solid APF transform to multilevel hollow architecture with precise nanospatial distribution of organic functional groups (e.g., hydroxymethyl and amine). The transformation is tracked by electron microscopy and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance techniques, the category and dosage of alcohol are pivotal for constructing multilevel hollow structures. Moreover, it is demonstrated the evolution of nanostructures accompanied with unique organic microenvironments is able to accurately confine multiple gold (Au) nanoparticles, leading to the formation of pomegranate-like particles. Through selectively depositing palladium (Pd) nanoparticles onto the outer shell, bimetallic Au@APF@Pd catalysts are formed, which exhibit excellent hydrogenation performance with turnover frequency (TOF) value up to 11257 h-1 . This work provides an effective method for precisely manipulating the nanostructure and composition of polymers at nanoscale and sheds light on the design of catalysts with precise spatial active components.

Abstract
Asymmetric materials have attracted tremendous interest because of their intriguing physicochemical properties and promising applications, but endowing them with precisely controlled morphologies and porous structures remains a formidable challenge. Herein, a facile micelle anisotropic self-assembly approach on a droplet surface is demonstrated to fabricate asymmetric carbon hemispheres with a jellyfish-like shape and radial multilocular mesostructure. This facile synthesis follows an interface-energy-mediated nucleation and growth mechanism, which allows easy control of the micellar self-assembly behaviors from isotropic to anisotropic modes. Furthermore, the micelle structure can also be systematically manipulated by selecting different amphiphilic triblock copolymers as a template, resulting in diverse novel asymmetric nanostructures, including eggshell, lotus, jellyfish, and mushroom-shaped architectures. The unique jellyfish-like hemispheres possess large open mesopores (∼14 nm), a high surface area (∼684 m2 g-1), abundant nitrogen dopants (∼6.3 wt %), a core-shell mesostructure and, as a result, manifest excellent sodium-storage performance in both half and full-cell configurations. Overall, our approach provides new insights and inspirations for exploring sophisticated asymmetric nanostructures for many potential applications.

Abstract
Selective hydrogenation and hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of biomass to value-added products play a crucial role in the development of renewable energy resources. However, achieving a temperature-controlled selectivity within one catalytic system while retaining excellent hydrogenation and HDO performance remains a great challenge. Here, nitrogen/oxygen (N/O) co-doped porous carbon nanosphere derived from resin polymer spheres is synthesized as the host matrix to in situ encapsulate highly dispersed Pd nanoparticles (NPs). Through N/O co-doping, the defects on the surface of carbon structure can serve as active sites to promote substrate adsorption. After a facile H2 O2 post-treatment process, the presence of abundant carboxyl groups on the porous carbon nanospheres can act as acidic sites to replace the use of acidic additives in the HDO process. Additionally, the increased surface oxygen-containing groups improve hydrophilicity to disperse catalysts in aqueous solutions. Owing to the unique highly dispersed Pd NPs and abundant surface defects, the Pd@APF-H2 O2 (2.3 nm) catalysts exhibit excellent catalytic activity and temperature-controlled selectivity for hydrogenation and HDO products of biomass-derived vanillin.

Abstract
The porous organic polymers have been considered as effective materials for gas storage and adsorption. Herein, we synthesized highly crystalline nitrogen-rich covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) by polycondensation for preparing the novel hyper-cross-linked conjugated polymers (HCCPs) with tunable specific surface area and pore volume through coupling Friedel-Crafts reaction, in which 1,4-Bis(chloromethyl)benzene and 4,4-Bis(chloromethyl)biphenyl as the expansion molecules were pillared between the layers of CTF-HUST. This technology not only increased the specific surface area and total pore volume of CTF-HUST by 2.56 and 4.68 times, but also greatly enhanced the utilization of adsorption sites of CTF-HUST. The HCCP2-1.25 exhibited the highest surface area (1349.29 m2g-1) among these HCCPs and demonstrated excellent adsorption performance for ethyl acetate (1605.14 mg/g), ethanol (1371.49 mg/g), 1,2-Dichloroethane (1971.68 mg/g), benzene (1151.77 mg/g) and toluene (1024.28 mg/g) due to the multiple C-H…O, C-H…Cl, O-H…N and C-H…π interactions between volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and HCCPs framework. Moreover, CO2 and H2 storage capacities of the HCCP2-1.25 were 8.02 wt% and 1.54 wt%, 1.66 and 1.67 times higher than CTF-HUST, respectively. This study developed a simple and effective molecular expansion strategy to synthesize a series of novel high-surface-area porous polymers for potential applications in the environmental field.

Abstract
Hollow carbon spheres (HCS) manifest specific merit in achieving large interior void space, high permeability, wide contactable area, and strong stacking ability with negligible aggregation and have attracted attention due to their high supercapacitor activity. As the key factor affecting supercapacitor performance, the surface chemical properties, shell thickness, roughness, and pore volumes of HCS are the focus of research in this field. Herein, the surface chemical properties and structures of HCS are simultaneously adjusted by a feasible and simple process of in situ activation during assembly of resin and potassium chloride (KCl). This strategy involves KCl participating in resin polymerization and the superior performance of potassium species on activating carbon. The surface N/O content, thickness, defects, and roughness degree of HCS can be controlled by adjusting the dosage of KCl. Electrochemical tests show that optimized HCS has suitable roughness, high surface area, and abundant surface N/O functional groups, which endow it with excellent electrochemical capacitance properties, showing its high potential in supercapacitors.

Abstract
Chemotherapy is a primary cancer treatment strategy, the monitoring of which is critical to enhancing the survival rate and quality of life of cancer patients. However, current chemotherapy monitoring mainly relies on imaging tools with inefficient sensitivity and radiation invasiveness. Herein, we develop the bowl-shaped submicroreactor chip of Au-loaded 3-aminophenol formaldehyde resin (denoted as APF-bowl&Au) with a specifically designed structure and Au loading content. The obtained APF-bowl&Au, used as the matrix of laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI MS), possesses an enhanced localized electromagnetic field for strengthened small metabolite detection. The APF-bowl&Au enables the extraction of serum metabolic fingerprints (SMFs), and machine learning of the SMFs achieves chemotherapy monitoring of ovarian cancer with area-under-the-curve (AUC) of 0.81-0.98. Furthermore, a serum metabolic biomarker panel is preliminarily identified, exhibiting gradual changes as the chemotherapy cycles proceed. This work provides insights into the development of nanochips and contributes to a universal detection platform for chemotherapy monitoring.

Abstract
The construction of hollow mesoporous carbon nanospheres (HMCS) avoiding the use of traditional soft/hard templates is highly desired for nanoscience yet challenging. Herein, we report a simple and straightforward template-free strategy for preparing nitrogen, sulfur dual-doped HMCSs (N/S-HMCSs) as oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) electrocatalysts. The unique hollow spherical and mesoporous structure was in-situ formed via a thermally initiated hollowing pathway from an elaborately engineered covalent triazine framework. Regulation of pyrolysis temperatures contributed to precisely tailoring of the shell thickness of HMCSs. The resulting N/S-HMCS900 (pyrolyzed at 900 °C) possessed high N and S contents, large specific surface areas, rich and uniform mesopores distribution. Consequently, as a metal-free ORR electrocatalyst, N/S-HMCS900 exhibits a high half-wave potential, excellent methanol tolerance and great long-term durability. Additionally, density functional theory calculations demonstrate that N, S-dual dopant can create extra active sites with higher catalytic activity than the isolated N-dopant. This strategy provides new insights into the construction of hollow and mesoporous multi-heteroatom-doped carbon materials with tunable nanoarchitecture for various electrochemical applications.

Abstract
As a desirable candidate for lithium-ion batteries, potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) have aroused great interest because of their low cost and high power and energy densities. However, the insertion/extraction of K+ with a large radius (1.38 Å) usually bring about the destruction of the electrode materials. Here, ultrafine Fe7S8 nanocrystals are successfully implanted into hollow carbon nanospheres (Fe7S8@HCSs) via a facile solvothermal method and subsequent novel low-temperature sulfurization, which avoid the aggregation of Fe7S8 nanoparticles produced during high-temperature sulfidation. The ultrafine Fe7S8 nanoparticles and hollow carbon spheres can not only buffer the severe expansion/shrinkage of electrode materials caused by the repeated insertion/extraction of K+, but also provide additional accessible pathways for the high-rate K+ transmission. When tested as an anode material for PIBs, Fe7S8@HCSs achieve impressive K+ storage capacity of 523.2 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 after 100 cycles and remarkable rate capacity of 176.3 mAh g-1 at 5 A g-1. Further, assembling this anode with a K2NiFe(CN)6 cathode yields stable cycling performance, revealing its great potential for large-scale energy storage applications.

Abstract
The rational design and controllable synthesis of hollow nanoparticles with both a mesoporous shell and an asymmetric architecture are crucially desired yet still significant challenges. In this work, a kinetics-controlled interfacial super-assembly strategy is developed, which is capable of preparing asymmetric porous and hollow carbon (APHC) nanoparticles through the precise regulation of polymerization and assembly rates of two kinds of precursors. In this method, Janus resin and silica hybrid (RSH) nanoparticles are first fabricated through the kinetics-controlled competitive nucleation and assembly of two precursors. Specifically, silica nanoparticles are initially formed, and the resin nanoparticles are subsequently formed on one side of the silica nanoparticles, followed by the co-assembly of silica and resin on the other side of the silica nanoparticles. The APHC nanoparticles are finally obtained via high-temperature carbonization of RSH nanoparticles and elimination of silica. The erratic asymmetrical, hierarchical porous and hollow structure and excellent photothermal performance under 980 nm near-infrared (NIR) light endow the APHC nanoparticles with the ability to serve as fuel-free nanomotors with NIR-light-driven propulsion. Upon illumination by NIR light, the photothermal effect of the APHC shell causes both self-thermophoresis and jet driving forces, which propel the APHC nanomotor. Furthermore, with the assistance of phase change materials, such APHC nanoparticles can be employed as smart vehicles that can achieve on-demand release of drugs with a 980 nm NIR laser. As a proof of concept, we apply this APHC-based therapeutic system in cancer treatment, which shows improved anticancer performance due to the synergy of photothermal therapy and chemotherapy. In brief, this kinetics-controlled approach may put forward new insight into the design and synthesis of functional materials with unique structures, properties, and applications by adjusting the assembly rates of multiple precursors in a reaction system.

Abstract
The electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) is known as a promising mean of nitrogen fixation to mitigate the energy crisis and facilitate fertilizer production under mild circumstances. For electrocatalytic reactions, the design of efficient catalysts is conducive to reducing activation energy and accelerating lethargic dynamics. Among them, hollow structural materials possess cavities in their structures, which can slack off the escape rate of N2 and reaction intermediates, prolong the residence time of N2 , enrich the reaction intermediates' concentration, and shorten electron transportation path, thereby further enhancing their NRR activity. Here, the basic synthetic strategies of hollow structural materials are introduced first. Then, the recent breakthroughs in hollow structural materials as NRR catalysts are reviewed from the perspective of intrinsic, mesoscopic, and microscopic regulations, aiming to discuss how structures affect and improve the catalytic performance. Finally, the future research directions of hollow structural materials as NRR catalysts are discussed. This review is expected to provide an outlook for optimizing hollow structural NRR catalysts.

Abstract
Carbonaceous materials with pores or bilayer spaces are a kind of potential host material to confine polyselenide diffusion and mitigate the shuttling effect. In the present work, a theoretical design of bilayer C2N (bi-C2N) as an efficient host material for lithium-selenium (Li-Se) batteries was explored by first-principles calculations. AA- and AB-stacking bilayer C2N could alleviate the dissolution of high-order polyselenides through a synergistic effect of physical confinement and strong Li-N bonds. Lithium polyselenides prefer to anchor on AA- and AB-stacking bilayer C2N instead of the commonly used electrolytes, showing their capabilities in suppressing the shuttle effect. Charge transfer occurs from Se8 and Li2Sen molecules (LiPSes) to AA- and AB-stacking bilayer C2N, giving rise to the formation of strong Li-N bonds. The AA- and AB-stacking LiPSes@C2N systems possess high electrical conductivities, which is beneficial for high electrochemical performance. In addition, the reversible conversion mechanisms of Li2Sen in the AA- and AB-stacking bilayer C2N are also investigated through the energy changes and decomposition reaction of the Li2Se molecule, and the results indicate that AA- and AB-stacking bilayer C2N facilitate the formation and decomposition of Li2Se by decreasing the active energy barriers and improving the selenium utilization rates. Our present work could shed some light on a possible strategy for designing highly efficient bilayer host materials for high performance Li-Se batteries.

Abstract
Functional carbon nanospheres are exceptionally useful, yet controllable synthesis of them with well-defined porosity and complex multi-shelled nanostructure remains challenging. Here, we report a lamellar micelle spiral self-assembly strategy to synthesize multi-shelled mesoporous carbon nanospheres with unique chirality. This synthesis features the introduction of shearing flow to drive the spiral self-assembly, which is different from conventional chiral templating methods. Furthermore, a continuous adjustment in the amphipathicity of surfactants can cause the packing parameter changes, namely, micellar structure transformations, resulting in diverse pore structures from single-porous, to radial orientated, to flower-like, and to multi-shelled configurations. The self-supported spiral architecture of these multi-shelled carbon nanospheres, in combination with their high surface area (~530 m2 g−1), abundant nitrogen content (~6.2 weight %), and plentiful mesopores (~2.5 nm), affords them excellent electrochemical performance for potassium-ion storage. This simple but powerful micelle-directed self-assembly strategy offers inspiration for future nanostructure design of functional materials.

Abstract
Conventional colloidal syntheses typically produce nanostructures with positive curvatures due to thermodynamic preference. Here, we demonstrate the creation of surface concavity in Au nanorods through seed-mediated growth in confined spaces and report their thermochromic responses to temperature changes. The unique surface concavity is created by templating against Fe3O4 nanorods, producing a new concavity-sensitive plasmonic band. Due to the high surface energy, the metastable nanorods can be reconstructed at a moderate temperature, enabling convenient and precise tuning of their plasmonic properties by aging in different solvents. Such structural reconstruction of concave Au nanorods enables the fabrication of thermochromic plasmonic films that can display images with vivid color changes or exhibit encrypted, invisible information upon aging. This templating strategy is universal in creating concave nanostructures, which may open the door to designing new nanostructures with promising applications in sensing, anticounterfeiting, information encryption, and displays.

Abstract
Although organosulfur compounds can protect lithium anodes, participate in the redox reaction, and suppress the shuttle effect, the sluggish electrochemical dynamics of their bulk structure and the notorious shuttle effect of covalent long-chain sulfurs largely impede their actual applications. Herein, sulfurized carbon nanotube@aminophenol-formaldehyde (SC@A) with covalently linked short-chain sulfurs is firstly synthesized by in situ polymerization of aminophenol-formaldehyde (AF) on the surface of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) followed by acetone etching and inverse sulfurization processes, forming mesoporous yolk-shell organosulfur nanotubes with abundant internal joints between the yolk of CNTs and the shell of sulfurized AF for the first time. In situ Raman spectra, in situ XRD patterns, and ex situ XPS spectra verify that the covalent short-chain sulfurs bring about a reversible solid-solid conversion process of sulfur, thoroughly avoiding the shuttle effect. The mesoporous yolk-shell structure with abundant internal joints can effectively accommodate the volume change, fully expose active sites and efficiently improve the transport of electrons and lithium ions, thus highly promoting the solid-solid electrochemical reaction kinetics. Therefore, the SC@A cathode exhibits a superior specific capacity of 841 mAh g-1 and a capacity decay of 0.06% per cycle within 500 cycles at a large current density of 5.0 C.

Abstract
Hollow carbon spheres (HCSs) have broad application in many fields such as catalysis, adsorption and energy storage. Due to various restrictions on hard and soft templates, self-templating methods have received extensive attention. Generally, the conventional self-templating method includes two steps, including the hollowing and carbonization process. Herein, a facile novel one-step air induced linker cleaving (AILC) method was developed to synthesize HCSs using 3-aminophenol formaldehyde (APF) resin spheres as the carbon precursor. In this case, the cavitation and carbonization processes occur simultaneously. The as-prepared HCSs were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy. It was found that the cleavage of the ether bond groups (Ar-O-C) and the methylene (-CH2) in the APF resulted in cavitation and carbonization. The degree of cavitation and carbonization can be adjusted by controlling the thermal treatment temperature and time in air. Furthermore, the sulfur cathode containing HCSs heated at 400 °C exhibited excellent electrochemical performance with an initial discharge capacity of 1006 mA h g-1 at 0.2 C, and a low capacity decay rate of 0.097% per cycle over 500 cycles at 1 C. The novel one-step AILC strategy will pave a new avenue for the synthesis of hollow carbon spheres and their promising application in different areas.

Abstract
Carbon micro/nanocages have received great attention, especially in electrochemical energy-storage systems. Herein, as a proof-of-concept, a solid-state gas-steamed metal-organic-framework approach is designed to fabricate carbon cages with controlled openings on walls, and N, P dopants. Taking advantage of the fabricated carbon cages with large openings on their walls for enhanced kinetics of mass transport and N, P dopants within the carbon matrix for favoring chemical adsorption of Zn ions, when used as carbon cathodes for advanced aqueous Zn-ion hybrid supercapacitors (ZHSCs), such open carbon cages (OCCs) display a wide operation voltage of 2.0 V and an enhanced capacity of 225 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 . Also, they exhibit an ultralong cycling lifespan of up to 300 000 cycles with 96.5% capacity retention. Particularly, such OCCs as electrode materials lead to a soft-pack ZHSC device, delivering a high energy density of 97 Wh kg-1 and a superb power density of 6.5 kW kg-1 . Further, the device can operate in a wide temperature range from -25 to + 40 °C, covering the temperatures for practical applications in daily life.
