By considering factors such as morphology engineering, band gap engineering, co-catalyst modification, and heterojunction construction, the photocatalysts with superior performance can be developed. Inspired by this unique characteristic, photocatalysts with a hollow structure endow numerous advantages in photocatalyst design, including enhanced multiple refraction and reflection of light, reduced transport distance of photo-induced carriers, and provided plentiful surface reaction sites. Herein, we systematically review the latest progress of hollow structured photocatalysts and summarize the diversity from geometric morphology, internal structure, and chemical composition. Specifically, the synthetic strategies of hollow structured photocatalysts are highlighted, including hard template, soft template, and template free methods. Furthermore, a series of hollow structured photocatalysts have also been described in detail, such as metal oxide, metal sulfide, metal-organic framework, and covalent organic framework. Subsequently, we present the potential applications of hollow structured photocatalysts in photocatalytic pollutant degradation, H₂ production, H₂O₂ production, CO₂ reduction, and N₂ fixation. Simultaneously, the relevant relationship between hollow structure and photocatalytic performance is deeply discussed.

In this study, NiCr₂O₄/T-CZS composites were fabricated by incorporating NiCr₂O₄ nanosheets onto the surface of twinned Cd_0.5Zn_0.5S (T-CZS) nanoparticles using a solvent evaporation strategy. After optimization, the 6% NiCr₂O₄/T-CZS exhibited an impressive hydrogen (H₂) evolution rate (<em>r</em>_H2) of 81.4 ​mmol·h⁻¹·g⁻¹ when employing polylactic acid (PLA) plastic as a sacrificial agent in NaOH solution. The reason behind this can be mainly attributed to the fact that T-CZS consists of wurtzite Cd_0.5Zn_0.5S (WZ-CZS) and zinc blende Cd_0.5Zn_0.5S (ZB-CZS) with slight band structure differences, thereby facilitating rapid bulk phase and interface charge separation due to the S-scheme charge transfer routes between WZ-CZS and ZB-CZS, as well as T-CZS and NiCr₂O₄. Moreover, this system can effectively retain electrons with strong reducing ability for efficient H₂ evolution reaction (HER) and generate hot electrons through the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect of NiCr₂O₄, which enhances the absorption of UV–Vis–NIR light energy, thereby facilitating the HER process. What's more, NaOH solution can indirectly promote the HER kinetics by enhancing the oxidative driving force of holes.

Among the available energy storage technologies, supercapacitors stand out due to their rapid charge/discharge capabilities, excellent cycling stability, and high power density, enabling reliable long-term operation as well as efficient energy conversion and storage. A fundamental challenge in contemporary energy storage research remains the enhancement of supercapacitor energy density while maintaining their inherent high power density capabilities. Two-dimensional (2D) materials have emerged as promising candidates for constructing high-performance supercapacitor electrodes. Materials such as graphene, transition metal nitrides and/or carbides (MXenes), and transition metal dichalcogenides possess unique layered structures with atomic thickness, exceptional surface areas, high theoretical capacities, and remarkable mechanical flexibility. These characteristics make them particularly suitable for developing next-generation energy storage devices. However, the inherent van der Waals interactions between nanosheets frequently result in restacking phenomena, significantly impeding ion transport and consequently limiting both practical capacity and rate performance. Thus, rational materials design and precise electrode architecture engineering are imperative for overcoming these performance limitations. This review first explores modification strategies for enhancing the electrochemical performance of 2D materials. Studies have shown that diverse modification approaches, including surface functionalization, defect engineering, and heterogeneous structure construction, can effectively increase active sites, enhance conductivity, and improve pseudocapacitive characteristics. These modifications lead to substantial improvements in both areal and volumetric capacitance of electrode materials. Notably, efforts to increase supercapacitor energy density typically necessitate higher active material mass loading, which inherently results in more complex and extended ion transport pathways within the electrode structure, thereby compromising rate performance. In addressing this challenge, we evaluate conventional methodologies for establishing ion transport channels in high mass loading electrodes, including template-based approaches, external field-induced assembly techniques, and three-dimensional (3D) printing processes. However, these traditional methods typically generate pore structures at the micrometer or sub-micrometer scale, making it challenging to simultaneously achieve optimal rate performance and volumetric capacitance. To concurrently optimize areal capacitance, volumetric capacitance, and rate performance, this review emphasizes recent innovative approaches for constructing nanoscale porous architect","PeriodicalId":6964,"journal":{"name":"物理化学学报","volume":"41 6","pages":"Article 100063"},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143474882","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Photoactive nanomaterials play a crucial role in the construction of screen-printed PEC biosensors as they can be used not only as photoelectric conversion platforms but also as loading platforms for recognition elements. However, pure photoactive materials usually suffer from some drawbacks, such as inherent toxicity, wide bandgap, and high electron-hole pair recombination rate.

In view of this, we provide the first systematic summary of photoactive materials for screen-printed PEC biosensors in this paper, classifying them into four main categories: metal oxides, metal chalcogenides, carbon nanomaterials and bismuth-based nanomaterials.
