However, controllable synthesis of ultrasmall multielement alloy nanoparticles (us-MEA-NPs) supported on porous metal oxides with a homogeneous elemental distribution and good catalytic stability during long-term operation is extremely challenging due to their oxidation and strong immiscibility. As a proof of concept that such synthesis can be realized, this work presents a general “bottom-up” l ultrasonic-assisted, simultaneous electro-oxidation–reduction-precipitation strategy for alloying dissimilar elements into single NPs on a porous support. One characteristic of this technique is uniform mixing, which results from simultaneous rapid thermal decomposition and reduction and leads to multielement liquid droplet solidification without aggregation. This process was achieved through a synergistic combination of enhanced electrochemical and plasma-chemical phenomena at the metal–electrolyte interface (electron energy of 0.3–1.38 eV at a peak temperature of 3000 K reached within seconds at a rate of ~105 K per second) in an aqueous solution under an ultrasonic field (40 kHz). Illustrating the effectiveness of this approach, the CuAgNiFeCoRuMn@MgO-P3000 catalyst exhibited exceptional catalytic efficiency in selective hydrogenation of nitro compounds, with over 99% chemoselectivity and nearly 100% conversion within 60 s and no decrease in catalytic activity even after 40 cycles (>98% conversion in 120 s). Our results provide an effective, transferable method for rationally designing supported MEA-NP catalysts at the atomic level and pave the way for a wide variety of catalytic reactions.","PeriodicalId":48538,"journal":{"name":"Infomat","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":22.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142185438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, challenges still exist in fabricating high-density detector arrays using such materials, which are essential for traditional imaging systems. In this study, we present a state-of-the-art computing imaging system that utilizes a MoTe₂/Si self-powered photodetector coupled with flexible Hadamard modulation algorithms. This system demonstrates remarkable capability to produce high-quality images in the shortwave infrared (SWIR) band, surpassing the capabilities of devices based on alternative material systems. The exceptional infrared imaging capability primarily stems from the MoTe₂/Si photodetector's inherent features, including an ultra-wide spectral range (265–1550 nm) and extremely high sensitivity (linear dynamic range (LDR) up to 123 dB, responsivity (<i>R</i>) up to 0.33 A W^–1, external quantum efficiency (EQE) up to 43% and a specific detectivity (<i>D</i>*) exceeding 2.9 × 10¹¹ Jones). Moreover, the imaging system demonstrates the ability to achieve high-quality edge imaging of objects in the SWIR band (1550 nm), even in strong scattering environments and under low sampling rate conditions (sampling rate of 25%).

Herein, a self-segregated biphasic electrolyte (SSBE) was proposed to synergistically address those issues. The strong interaction between polyiodides and the organic phase was demonstrated to limit the shuttle effect of polyiodides. Meanwhile, the hybridization of polar organic solvent in the inorganic phase modulated the bonding structure, as well as the effective weakening of water activity, optimizing the interface during zinc electroplating. As a result, the Zn-I₂ coin cells performed a capacity retention of nearly 100% after 4000 cycles at 2 mA cm⁻². And a discharge capacity of 0.6 Ah with no degradation after 180 cycles was achieved in the pouch cell.

However, the practical application of LMBs continues to be constrained by thorny safety issues with the formation and growth of Li dendrites. Herein, the ZIF-67 MOFs are in situ coupled onto a single face of 3D porous nanofiber to fabricate an asymmetric Janus membrane, harnessing their anion adsorption capabilities to promote the uniform deposition of Li ions. In addition, the poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate and trifluoromethyl methacrylate are introduced into nanofiber skeleton to form Janus@GPE, which preferentially reacts with Li metal to form a LiF-rich stable SEI layer to inhibit Li dendrite growth. Importantly, the synergistic effect of the MOFs and stable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer results in superior cycling performance, achieving a remarkable 2500 h cycling at 1 mA cm⁻² in the Li/Janus@GPE/Li configuration. In addition, the Janus@GPE electrolyte has a certain flame retardant, which can self-extinguish within 3 s, improving the safety performance of the batteries. Consequently, the Li/Janus@GPE/LFP flexible pouch cell exhibits favorable cycling stability (the capacity retention rate of 45 cycles is 91.8% at 0.1 C).

Low-bandgap Pb–Sn hybrid perovskite photodetectors can extend the spectral response from the ultraviolet–visible (UV–vis) range to the near-infrared (NIR) and reduce the toxicity associated with Pb²⁺. The strategic introduction of Sn²⁺ into Cs_0.15FA_0.85Pb_<i>x</i>Sn_1−<i>x</i>I₃ (<i>x</i> = 1, 0.8, 0.6, 0.5, 0.4, 0.2, and 0) not only preserves the cubic crystal structure with conformal multigrain growth but also broadens the film's absorption spectrum from 800 to 1000 nm NIR region. This indicates a well-controlled tunability of the Pb–Sn binary perovskite system. Specifically, the self-powered photodetector with a device structure of ITO/NiO_<i>x</i>/PTAA/Cs_0.15FA_0.85Pb_0.5Sn_0.5I₃/PCBM/BCP/Ag has shown remarkable optoelectrical properties.

However, their restricted ionic conductivity at subzero temperatures, along with dendrite formation and subsequent side reactions, unavoidably hinder the implementation of grid‐scale applications. In this study, a novel bimetallic cation‐enhanced gel polymer electrolyte (Ni/Zn‐GPE) was engineered to address these issues. The Ni/Zn‐GPE effectively disrupted the hydrogen‐bonding network of water, resulting in a significant reduction in the freezing point of the electrolyte. Consequently, the designed electrolyte demonstrates an impressive ionic conductivity of 28.70 mS cm−1 at −20°C. In addition, Ni2+ creates an electrostatic shielding interphase on the Zn surface, which confines the sequential Zn2+ nucleation and deposition to the Zn (002) crystal plane. Moreover, the intrinsically high activation energy of the Zn (002) crystal plane generated a dense and dendrite‐free plating/stripping morphology and resisted side reactions. Consequently, symmetrical batteries can achieve over 2700 hours of reversible cycling at 5 mA cm−2, while the Zn || V2O5 battery retains 85.3% capacity after 1000 cycles at −20°C.

Herein, for the first time, high-stability 2D perovskite LaNb₂O₇ (LNO) is engineered for high-performance wide-temperature UV light detection and human motion detection. High-quality LNO nanosheets are prepared by solid-state calcination and liquid-phase exfoliation technique, resulting in exceptional stability against high temperature, acid, and alkali solutions. As expected, individual LNO nanosheet device achieves ultra-wide temperature (80–780 K) and ultra-high (3.7 × 10⁴ A W⁻¹ at 780 K) UV light detection. Importantly, it shows high responsivity (171 A W⁻¹), extraordinary detectivity (4 × 10¹² Jones), fast speed (0.3/97 ms), and long-term stability under ambient conditions. In addition, wafer-scale LNO film devices can be used as pixel array detectors for UV imaging, and large-area flexible LNO film devices exhibit satisfactory photodetection performance after repeated bending tests.

However, the low ionic conductivity and Li⁺ transport number of solid-state polymer electrolytes limit their practical application. Herein, a composite polymer electrolyte with self-inserted structure is proposed using the layered double hydroxides (LDHs) as dopant to achieve a fast Li⁺ transport channel in poly(vinylidene-co-trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE)] based polymer electrolyte. In such a composite electrolyte, P(VDF-TrFE) polymer has an all-trans conformation, in which all fluorine atoms locate on one side of the polymer chain, providing fast Li⁺ transport highways. Meanwhile, the LDH can immobilize the anions of Li salts based on the electrostatic interactions, promoting the dissociation of Li salts, thereby enhancing the ionic conductivity (6.4 × 10⁻⁴ S cm⁻¹) and Li⁺ transference number (0.76). The anion immobilization effect can realize uniform electric field distribution at the anode surface and suppress the dendritic Li growth. Moreover, the hydrogen bonding interaction between LDH and polymer chains also endows the composite electrolyte with strong mechanical properties. Thus, at room temperature, the Li || Li symmetric cells can be stably cycled over 1000 h at a current density of 0.2 mA cm⁻², and the full cells with LiFePO₄ cathode deliver a high capacity retention (&gt;95%) after 200 cycles.
