However, the utilization of redox-active species in spinel oxides is limited. Herein, we unveil an efficient multimetal spinel oxide using high-throughput methods. The oxide contains Fe and Cu substituted into Co sites following a stoichiometry of Fe0.6Cu0.6Co1.8O4. The dual cation substitution of Fe and Cu manipulates the electronic states and generates Ovac, thereby generating more accessible active species. This significantly improves the OH– adsorption capacity on spinel oxide triggering a more favorable OER reaction with a low overpotential of 265 mV at 10 mA cm–2 and high durability in an alkaline medium. Our work not only presents the utilization of a high-throughput approach to explore efficient catalysts with optimal composition but also provides useful insights into the modulation of electronic states for enhanced catalytic performance.","PeriodicalId":19,"journal":{"name":"ACS Materials Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":11.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142251695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, two HLCT emitters, 2-tBuspoCz-2pTrz and 2-tBuspoCz-Me3pTrz, are prepared as acceptors of exciplexes with thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) properties. The exciplex TADF systems constructed by mixing HLCT and TAPC molecules have a minute energy gap between singlet and triplet excited states and unity emission efficiency. Using the exciplex as an emitter, solution-processed devices achieve maximum external quantum efficiency (EQEmax) of 16.6%. Impressively, solution-processed devices with the fabricated exciplexes as hosts exhibit extremely low turn-on voltages and a promising EQEmax of >20%, which is concomitant with an extremely low-efficiency roll-off of 0.5% at 1,000 cd m–2.

Here, we introduce polymer acceptor (N2200) into the active layer blend, and realize intrinsically stretchable organic solar cells (is-OSCs) with evaporated electrode via encapsulation strategy. The incorporation of N2200 simultaneously enhances the mechanical stretchability and PCE of is-OSCs, attributed to the enhanced polymer chain entanglement, and N2200 can act as tie molecules to provide electric connection among small molecule domains. More importantly, encapsulating the evaporated electrode-based is-OSCs leads to significant improvement in its mechanical stretchability, with 80% PCE retention under a large strain of 20%, compared to <2.5% strain for the unencapsulated ones. Additionally, encapsulated is-OSCs retained 67% PCE after 1000 test cycles at a stretch strain of 15%, whereas unencapsulated devices can only retain 33% PCE after 200 test cycles under a small strain of 5%.","PeriodicalId":19,"journal":{"name":"ACS Materials Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":11.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142251732","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, a novel electrocatalyst comprising highly dispersed Cu nanoclusters (CuNCs) supported on oxygen vacancy (OV)-rich CeO2 on carbon paper (CuNCs–CeO2/CP) with plentiful interfacial Cu+–O–Ce3+–OV sites is constructed via a facile electrodeposition method. Various in situ/ex situ characterizations and theoretical calculations unveil that the Cu+–O–Ce3+–OV sites can effectively regulate the pathway of the CO2RR, accelerate the *CO → *CHO process, stabilize the *CHO and *OCH3 intermediates, and promote their hydrogenation to produce CH4. Furthermore, the critical role of Ce3+ and the OV species in forming Cu+–O–Ce3+–OV to maintain the electrocatalytic CO2RR activity is revealed.

By combining these spectroscopic techniques with rationally engineered nanomaterials, cancer cells and tissues can be more specifically targeted, and the readout signals can be substantially enhanced. Further integration of machine learning with its potential to identify subtle malignancy indicators may significantly improve the capability of nanomaterial-enabled optical spectroscopy to delineate cancer more precisely. As such, the synergistic integration of optical spectroscopy, nanomaterials, and machine learning may provide unique opportunities for the development of more selective, sensitive, and accurate cancer diagnostic technologies, which can be leveraged to optimize therapeutic strategies and minimize unnecessary interventions to ultimately enhance patient survival outcomes.

The ultrathin BPH nanosheets exhibit high and regular intersheet mesoporosity, and substantially improved thermal stability. The notable mesoporosity bestows exceptional water adsorption behavior typically unseen for zeolites; the as-prepared material consists of up to 49% adsorbed H2O by weight and adsorbs up to 32 wt % H2O at 90% relative humidity. 2H MAS NMR spectroscopy identifies different types of O2H environments ascribed to silanol species exhibiting two motion behaviors.
