Abstract
Antimonene with a honeycomb layered structure has great application prospects in a wide spectrum of domains due to its high carrier mobility, high thermal conductivity, and layer-dependent electrical properties. Since the first successful synthesis of antimonene by epitaxy in 2015, various fabrication methods have been proposed successively. Herein, several representative synthetic methods are described in detail, including mechanical exfoliation, epitaxial growth, liquid-phase exfoliation, electrochemical exfoliation, etc. In addition, band engineering via modification strategies of antimonene, particularly intercalation and doping, is discussed based on available theoretical studies. By comparing the achieved structure characteristics and performances of these different synthesis and modification strategies, we present promising future developments and critical challenges for antimonene.

Abstract
Since the first proposal of antimonene in 2015, extensive research attention has been drawn to its application in energy storage and conversion because of its excellent layered structure and fast ion diffusion properties. However, in contrast to the revolutionary expansion of antimonene-based energy devices, reviews on this topic that summarize and further guide the design of 2D antimonene for energy storage and conversion are rare. In this review, the structure, physicochemical properties, and popular synthesis approaches of antimonene are first summarised. Specifically, the rational design and application of antimonene in energy storage and conversion such as electrochemical batteries and supercapacitors, electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction, electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction, electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction, photocatalytic reduction of organic pollution, photocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2), solar cells and photovoltaic devices are outlined. Finally, opportunities and challenges are presented to further advance the development and application of antimonene in energy conversion and storage.

Abstract
As a member of graphene analogs, metallenes are a class of two-dimensional materials with atomic thickness and well-controlled surface atomic arrangement made of metals or alloys. When utilized as catalysts, metallenes exhibit distinctive physicochemical properties endowed from the under-coordinated metal atoms on the surface, making them highly competitive candidates for energy-related electrocatalysis and energy conversion systems. Significantly, their catalytic activity can be precisely tuned through the chemical modification of their surface and subsurface atoms for efficient catalyst engineering. This minireview summarizes the recent progress in the synthesis and characterization of metallenes, together with their use as electrocatalysts toward reactions for energy conversion. In the Synthesis section, we pay particular attention to the strategies designed to tune their exposed facets, composition, and surface strain, as well as the porosity/cavity, defects, and crystallinity on the surface. We then discuss the electrocatalytic properties of metallenes in terms of oxygen reduction, hydrogen evolution, alcohol and acid oxidation, carbon dioxide reduction, and nitrogen reduction reaction, with a small extension regarding photocatalysis. At the end, we offer perspectives on the challenges and opportunities with respect to the synthesis, characterization, modeling, and application of metallenes.

Abstract
AIMS This study aims to evaluate ECM-coated micropattern arrays derived from decellularization of native porcine lungs as a novel three-dimensional cell culture platform. METHODS ECM derived from decellularization of native porcine lungs was exploited to prepare hydrogels. Then, dECM-coated micropattern arrays were fabricated at four different diameters (50, 100, 150 and 200 μm) using polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Two lung cancer cell lines, A549 and H1299, were tested on a dECM-coated micropattern array as a novel culture platform for cell adhesion, distribution, proliferation, viability, phenotype expression, and drug screening to evaluate the cytotoxicity of paclitaxel, doxorubicin and cisplatin. RESULTS The ECM derived from decellularization of native porcine lungs supported cell adhesion, distribution, viability and proliferation better than collagen I and Matrigel as the coated matrix on the surface. Moreover, the optimal diameter of the micropattern arrays was 100-150 μm, as determined by measuring the morphology, viability, proliferation and phenotype of the cancer cell spheroids. Cell spheroids of A549 and H1299 on dECM-coated micropattern arrays showed chemoresistance to anticancer drugs compared to that of the monolayer. The different distributions of HIF-1α, MCL-1 (in the center) and Ki-67 and MRP2 (in the periphery) of the spheroids demonstrated the good establishment of basal-lateral polarity and explained the chemoresistance phenomenon of spheroids. CONCLUSIONS This novel three-dimensional cell culture platform is stable and reliable for anticancer drug testing. Drug screening in dECM-coated micropattern arrays provides a powerful alternative to existing methods for drug testing and metabolic profiling in the drug discovery process.

Abstract
Ruthenium (Ru)-based catalysts, with considerable performance and desirable cost, are becoming highly interesting candidates to replace platinum (Pt) in the alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The hydrogen binding at Ru sites (Ru-H) is an important factor limiting the HER activity. Herein, density functional theory (DFT) simulations show that the essence of Ru-H binding energy is the strong interaction between the 4 d z 2 orbital of Ru and the 1s orbital of H. The charge transfer between Ru sites and substrates (Co and Ni) causes the appropriate downward shift of the 4 d z 2 -band center of Ru, which results in a Gibbs free energy of 0.022 eV for H* in the RuCo system, much lower than the 0.133 eV in the pure Ru system. This theoretical prediction has been experimentally confirmed using RuCo alloy-nanosheets (RuCo ANSs). They were prepared via a fast co-precipitation method followed with a mild electrochemical reduction. Structure characterizations reveal that the Ru atoms are embedded into the Co substrate as isolated active sites with a planar symmetric and Z-direction asymmetric coordination structure, obtaining an optimal 4 d z 2 modulated electronic structure. Hydrogen sensor and temperature program desorption (TPD) tests demonstrate the enhanced Ru-H interactions in RuCo ANSs compared to those in pure Ru nanoparticles. As a result, the RuCo ANSs reach an ultra-low overpotential of 10 mV at 10 mA cm-2 and a Tafel slope of 20.6 mV dec-1 in 1 M KOH, outperforming that of the commercial Pt/C. This holistic work provides a new insight to promote alkaline HER by optimizing the metal-H binding energy of active sites.

Abstract
Owing to their high energy density, lithium-oxygen batteries (LOBs) have been drawn great attention as one of the promising electrochemical energy sources. However, the sluggish kinetics of oxygen reduction/evolution reaction (ORR/OER) hamper the widespread application of LOBs. Herein, an elaborate designed catalysts which are constructed by FeNx moieties dispersed on the network-like hollow dodecahedral carbon and then decorated with Ru nanoparticles (FeNx-HDC@Ru). Since the homogeneously dispersed FeNx moieties could promote ORR performance, and the Ru nanoparticles could facilitate OER capability, the FeNx-HDC@Ru nanocomposites used as cathode catalysts can significantly improve LOBs performance. A lower discharge and charge overpotentials of 0.15 V and 0.78 V can be detected in the first cycle, respectively, and an excellent cycle performance of 90 cycles at 200 mA g-1 and 89 cycles at 500 mA g-1 can be demonstrated. Herein, the charge transfer kinetics has been enhanced with the internal network-like hollow structure and a low impedance Li2O2/catalysts contact interface could be earned by the constructed Ru nanoparticles, these factors would lead to an efficient acceleration to the formation and decomposition of Li2O2 during discharge and charge process.

Abstract
Black phosphorus (BP), an emerging 2D material semiconductor material, exhibits unique properties and promising application prospects for photo/electrocatalysis. However, the applications of BP in photo/electrocatalysis are hampered by the instability as well as low catalysis efficiency. Recently, tremendous efforts have been dedicated toward modulating its intrinsic structure, electronic property, and charge separation for enhanced photo/electrocatalytic performance through structure engineering. Simultaneously, the search for new substitute materials that are BP-analogous is ongoing. Herein, the latest theoretical and experimental progress made in the structural/surface engineering strategies and advanced applications of BP and BP-analog materials in relation to photo/electrocatalysis are extensively explored, and a presentation of the future opportunities and challenges of the materials is included at the end.

Abstract
Antimony nanocrystals (Sb NCs) are of interest in energy storage, catalysis and cancer therapy for its special physical, chemical and biomedical properties. However, methodology challenges still remain in preparation of colloidal Sb NCs, due to the restricted reaction solution systems, high temperature and time costing for common routes. Herein, size controllable colloidal Sb NCs were continuously prepared by pulsed laser ablation of Sb target in different solvents, owning to the metal nanodroplet explosive ejection and thermal evaporation mechanisms. These well dispersed and stable Sb NCs showed excellent photothermal property in the near-infrared-II window.
