Abstract
Fossil fuels have clearly failed to meet people's growing energy needs due to their limited reserves, potential pollution of the environment, and high costs. The development of cleaner, renewable energy sources as well as secondary batteries for energy storage is imminent, in a modern society where energy demand is soaring. Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have become the focus of large-scale energy storage systems as a promising alternative to lithium-ion batteries. The development of SIBs relies on the construction of high performance electrode materials. The design of low cost and high performance anode materials is a key link in this regard. Copper-based anodes are characterized by high theoretical capacity, abundant reserves, low cost and environmental friendliness. A variety of copper-based anode materials, which include cobalt oxides, sulfides, selenides and phosphides, have been synthesized and evaluated in the scientific literature for sodium storage. In detail, the preparation methods, response mechanisms, strengths and weaknesses, the relationship between morphology structure and electrochemical performance are discussed, as well as highlighting strategies to improve the electrochemical performance of copper-based anode materials. Finally, we offer our perspective on the challenges and potential for the development of copper-based anodes as a means of developing practical and high performing SIBs.

Abstract
Supercapacitors (SCs) are a novel type of energy storage device that exhibit features such as a short charging time, a long service life, excellent temperature characteristics, energy saving, and environmental protection. The capacitance of SCs depends on the electrode materials. Currently, carbon-based materials, transition metal oxides/hydroxides, and conductive polymers are widely used as electrode materials. However, the low specific capacitance of carbon-based materials, high cost of transition metal oxides/hydroxides, and poor cycling performance of conductive polymers as electrodes limit their applications. Copper-sulfur compounds used as electrode materials exhibit excellent electrical conductivity, a wide voltage range, high specific capacitance, diverse structures, and abundant copper reserves, and have been widely studied in catalysis, sensors, supercapacitors, solar cells, and other fields. This review summarizes the application of copper-sulfur compounds in SCs, details the research directions and development strategies of copper-sulfur compounds in SCs, and analyses and summarizes the research hotspots and outlook, so as to provide a reference and guidance for the use of copper-sulfur compounds.

Abstract
The growth of copper sulfide (Cu x S) nanoribbons, a class of Cu x S nanomaterials, was achieved by the aggregation of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) via a dialysis process. The obtained nanoribbon structure and its constituent elements on a film of SWCNT aggregates were confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning transmittance electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The subsequently obtained TEM images and Raman spectra revealed that nucleus synthesis and subsequent growth of Cu x S nanoribbons occurred during the aggregation of SWCNTs. The growth procedure described in this work provides an approach for the wet chemical synthesis of metal sulfide nanomaterials.

Abstract
Regulating the distribution of reactive oxygen species generated from H2 O2 activation is the prerequisite to ensuring the efficient and safe use of H2 O2 in the chemistry and life science fields. Herein, we demonstrate that constructing a dual Cu-Fe site through the self-assembly of single-atomic-layered Cu5 nanoclusters onto a FeS2 surface achieves selective H2 O2 activation with high efficiency. Unlike its unitary Cu or Fe counterpart, the dual Cu-Fe sites residing at the perimeter zone of the Cu5 /FeS2 interface facilitate H2 O2 adsorption and barrierless decomposition into ⋅OH via forming a bridging Cu-O-O-Fe complex. The robust in situ formation of ⋅OH governed by this atomic-layered catalyst enables the effective oxidation of several refractory toxic pollutants across a broad pH range, including alachlor, sulfadimidine, p-nitrobenzoic acid, p-chlorophenol, p-chloronitrobenzene. This work highlights the concept of building a dual catalytic site in manipulating selective H2 O2 activation on the surface molecular level towards efficient environmental control and beyond.

Abstract
In order to harvest more light wavelengths to improve the light-assisted electrochemical water splitting capacity, we developed a novel heterostructure of three-dimensional (3D) flower-like CuS architecture with accompanying SnS2 nanoparticles and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) aerogel for outstanding light-assisted electrocatalytic OER performance and good stability. The excellent catalytic kinetics, effective capturing of visible light, and rapid charge transfer of the CuS/SnS2/rGO (CSr) heterostructure were demonstrated. The overpotential (264 mV@10 mA cm-2) under light-assisted conditions is 20% lower than that under light-chopped conditions. SnS2 can harvest more light wavelengths and this boosts its intrinsic activity. However, with the increase of the SnS2 content, the OER activity decreases. The combination of the CS heterostructure and the rGO conductive aerogel achieves rapid charge transfer. Furthermore, the possible mechanism of the light-assisted electrocatalytic OER was also proposed. Overall, this work provides new insights into the simple and scalable fabrication of a highly efficient, low-cost, and stable non-noble-metal-based electrocatalyst.
