A catalyst designed with surface charge-storage-like properties is of great significance for sustainable Zn–air batteries. However, preparing such an interface requires complex synthesis and purification. Here, we used binary CoNi alloy nanoparticles as nuclei in a single-step pyrolytic synthesis to create a novel hybrid of nickel-anchored nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The improved sample showcases a bifunctional interface capable of both oxygen evolution and reduction, along with efficient EDLC-type surface charge storage. As a result, the hybrid structure exhibits capacitive characteristics, making it a potential candidate for supercapacitor-assisted zinc–air battery configurations. This superstructure (CoNi/CNTs) enabled ZAB to reach an open-circuit voltage of 1.447 V and a power density of 141.29 mW/cm². This promising performance is attributed to the active surfaces of the N-doped compartmentalized CNTs. Furthermore, the synergistic interactions between the catalytically active carbon centers, anchoring ultrasmall Ni clusters, and CoNi alloy nanoparticles further improve the catalytic activity.

Motivated by this strategy, the present work explores the hydrogen-storage behavior of three-dimensional porous silicon-carbon polymorph 3D-t(SiC)₁₂ after Li and Na functionalization using density functional theory (DFT) calculations together with ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations. Both alkali metals interact strongly with the host framework, exhibiting binding energies of –2.58 eV for Li and –2.10 eV for Na, which indicates thermodynamically stable decoration and minimizes the tendency toward metal clustering. A clear distinction is observed between the two decorating species, with Li producing significantly stronger interactions with hydrogen molecules than Na. As a result, the Li-functionalized framework stores as many as 34 H₂ molecules, corresponding to a gravimetric capacity of 6.39 wt %, while maintaining an average adsorption energy of –0.167 eV per H₂, a value favorable for reversible adsorption and desorption. Under identical conditions, Na decoration yields a lower storage capacity of 5.86 wt %. Thermodynamic calculations predict hydrogen release within an average temperature window of 267–368 K and equilibrium pressures between 8 and 20 bar, highlighting practical operating conditions. Dynamic stability is confirmed by AIMD simulations, which show that the hydrogenated structures remain intact throughout the simulations while preserving reversible adsorption characteristics. In addition, hydrogen diffusion on the Li-decorated surface proceeds through remarkably small activation barriers of only 0.010–0.178 eV, suggesting highly efficient molecular transport across the porous network.

The aim is to investigate how these treatments influence the material's composition, structure, and their respective impact on electrochemical properties. Electrochemical testing reveals atmosphere-dependent pathways: argon annealing improves stability up to 400 °C but produces Ir enrichment and heterogeneity at 500 °C that degrades performance; air annealing stabilizes oxidized species at 200 °C but yields larger activity and stability losses by 300 °C; and vacuum annealing at 200 °C preserves activity while improving stability. XPS characterization focuses on the analysis of Ir 4f, Ru 3d, and O 1s regions. For Ir 4f and Ru 3d spectra, simple metrics that didn’t involve fitting are explored, whereas for O 1s, deconvolution strategies are evaluated and a six-component model is adopted. In many cases, simple XPS metrics, binding energy (BE) and full width at half maximum (FWHM), capture trends that correlate with catalytic activity and stability, while detailed fitting is necessary to resolve complex oxygen speciation in other cases. Additionally, XPS-derived metrics are correlated with electrochemical performance using principal component analysis (PCA), highlighting patterns within a complex dataset.

Directly comparable polycrystalline–single-crystal cathode pairs from 12 datasets and 42 test contexts were evaluated through logarithmic response ratios describing initial-capacity, retention, and end-of-test capacity effects. Single-crystal cathodes showed higher retention in 67% of comparisons but higher initial capacity in only 19%, while 64% ultimately achieved a higher end-of-test capacity. These results identify compensation between early capacity sacrifice and durability gain as the central determinant of single-crystal benefit.

The conventional approach of adding plasticizers to enhance ionic conductivity is often accompanied by a loss of mechanical strength and carries the risk of side reactions at the lithium metal interface. To address this contradiction, a multiscale engineering strategy is developed by incorporating coumarin into the PEO/LiTFSI/SN system and subsequently embedding the mixtures within a PTFE fibrous membrane to afford a structurally integrated electrolyte. At the macroscale, the PTFE rigid scaffold interpenetrates the electrolyte and reinforces it mechanically. At the microscale, the co-plasticization of PEO by SN and coumarin significantly reduces its crystallinity, thereby creating fast ion transport channels. At the nanoscale, coumarin acts as a sacrificial agent that induces the formation of a thin and uniform solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) on the lithium metal anode, thereby enhancing the interfacial stability. The resulting polymer electrolyte exhibits a maximum tensile strength of 9.7 MPa and a puncture resistance of 5.9 N, and delivers an optimized ionic conductivity of 0.79 × 10^–3 S cm^–1 at 60 °C.
