Mesoporous Fe-doped MgO nanoparticles as a heterogeneous photo-Fenton-like catalyst for degradation of salicylic acid in wastewater

Mesoporous Fe-doped MgO nanoparticles were synthesized using a facile sol-gel method and utilized for photo-Fenton-like degradation of salicylic acid (SA). The MgO surface dissolution facilitated an increase in the pH under the reaction conditions that allowed the Fe-MgO catalyst to be active without detectable iron leaching. Under simulated solar radiation, SA was completely degraded with an initial rate constant of 0.048 min -1 at the optimal reaction conditions of 500 ppm loading of 5% Fe-MgO, 20 mM H 2 O 2 concentration, and 50 ppm SA concentration. The catalyst was stable over 5 reaction cycles. The Fe-MgO catalyst was shown to have a surface area up to 171 m 2 /g and contain hematite (Fe 2 O 3 ) nanoparticles with octahedrally coordinated iron catalytic centers, as inferred from diffuse reflectance UV–vis measurements. Post-reaction catalyst characterization showed that some Fe 2+ was present in the catalyst due to the redox cycle during the chain initiation and propagation steps of the reaction.

Li + Diffusion in Amorphous and Crystalline Al 2 O 3 for Battery Electrode Coatings

Al 2 O 3 is often applied protectively to lithium-ion battery anode and cathode materials to inhibit surface degradation, suppress dendrite formation, and relieve mechanical stresses. Given the very high intrinsic band gap and diffusion barrier of the material, the mechanism that allows Li diffusion through these coatings is not well understood, and widely varying laboratory results indicate that there may be dependencies on morphology and stoichiometry. Using nudged elastic band calculations and ab initio molecular dynamics, we perform a systematic investigation across Al 2 O 3 structures, both crystalline and amorphous, and at various concentrations of Li + to uncover the optimal parameters for maximally diffusive coatings. We find a correlation between the low proximity of Li + to Al 3+ and the low Li + migration barrier. Although barriers are the lowest in the highly diffusive one-dimensional channels of crystalline θ-Al 2 O 3 , the system is structurally delicate and subject to detrimental distortion as the Li + content is increased. The α-Al 2 O 3 lattice is, conversely, highly stable against distortion at all Li + concentrations but disadvantageous for Li + migration. In amorphous systems, unscreened Li + –Li + Coulomb repulsion and pre-emptive occupation of “trapping sites” combine to lower the energy barriers as a function of increasing concentration. One of our most important findings is that Al-deficient materials can sharply increase Li + movement, and we predict that an amorphous material with a combination of high Li + concentration and Al deficiency would enable highly Li + -conductive protective coatings for electrodes.

Molecular dynamics simulations of uranyl and plutonyl cations in a task-specific ionic liquid

Ionic liquids (ILs) are a unique class of solvents with potential applications in advanced separation technologies relevant to the nuclear industry. ILs are salts with low melting points and a wide range of tunable physical properties, such as viscosity, hydrophobiciy, conductivity, and liquidus range. ILs have negligible vapor pressure, are often non-flammable, and can have high thermal stability and a wide electrochemical window, making them attractive for use in separations processes relevant to the nuclear industry. Metal salts generally have a low solubility in ILs; however, by incorporating new functional groups into the IL cation or anion that promote complexation with the metal, the solubility can be greatly increased. One such task-specific ionic liquid (TSIL) is 1-carboxy-N, N, N-trimethylglycine bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([Hbet][Tf 2 N]). Water, which is detrimental for electrochemical separations, is a common impurity in ILs and can coordinate with actinyl cations, particularly in ILs containing only weakly coordinating components. Understanding the behavior of actinides in TSIL/water mixtures on a molecular level is vital for designing improved separations processes. Classical molecular dynamics simulations of uranyl(VI) and plutonyl(VI) in 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([EMIM][Tf 2 N]) with deprotonated Hbet (betaine) and water have been performed to understand the coordination and dynamics of the actinyl cations. We find that betaine is a much stronger ligand than water and prefers to coordinate the metal in a bidentate manner. Potential of mean force simulations yield a relative free energy for betaine coordination of approximately -120 to -90 kJ/mol in mixtures with water. As the amount of betaine coordinated to the actinide increases, the diffusion coefficient of the actinyl cation decreases. Moreover, the betaine ligand is able to bridge between two metal centers, resulting in dimeric complexes with actinide–actinide distances of ~5 Å. Potential of mean force simulations show that these structures are stable, with relative free energies of up to -40 kJ/mol. The crystal structure for [(UO 2 ) 2 (bet) 6 (H 2 O) 2 ][Tf 2 N] 4 shows that the betaine bridges between two uranium atoms to form dimeric complexes similar to those found in our simulations.

Transition to Petschek Reconnection in Subrelativistic Pair Plasmas: Implications for Particle Acceleration

While relativistic magnetic reconnection in pair plasmas has emerged in recent years as a candidate for the origin of radiation from extreme astrophysical environments, the corresponding subrelativistic pair-plasma regime has remained less explored, leaving open the question of how relativistic physics affects reconnection. In this paper, we investigate the differences between these regimes by contrasting two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations of reconnection in pair plasmas with relativistic magnetization (σ ≫ 1) and subrelativistic magnetization (σ < 1). By utilizing unprecedentedly large domain sizes and outflow boundary conditions, we demonstrate that lowering the magnetization results in a change in the reconnection geometry from a plasmoid chain to a Petschek geometry, where laminar exhausts bounded by slow-mode shocks emanate from a single diffusion region. We attribute this change to the reduced plasmoid production rate in the low-σ case: When the secondary tearing rate is sufficiently low, plasmoids are too few in number to prevent the system from relaxing into a stable Petschek configuration. This geometric change also affects particle energization: We show that while high-σ plasmoid chains generate power-law energy spectra, low-σ Petschek exhausts merely heat incoming plasma and yield negligible nonthermal acceleration. These results have implications for predicting the global current sheet geometry and the resulting energy spectra in a variety of systems.

Structural origin of disorder-induced ion conduction in NaFePO 4 cathode materials

Diffusion in NaFePO 4 can be enhanced through amorphization. Based on computations using DFT and machine learning potentials, we ascribe this phenomenon to the formation of less constrained Na-ion environments upon disordering. Most modern battery technologies depend on solid-state crystalline cathode materials. However, some of these materials are constrained by the low ionic conductivity of their most stable phases. An example of this is maricite (NaFePO 4 ). Interestingly, experiments have shown that maricite can improve its rate capability through disordering (amorphization). However, experimental characterization of amorphous cathode materials remains a major challenge, hindering a clear understanding of the structural origin of the disorder-induced improvement in sodium-ion mobility. To address this, we here employ molecular dynamics simulations by first training a machine learning potential for NaFePO 4 based on the atomic cluster expansion approach and a batch active learning potential parameterization scheme. This potential is then applied to explore the structural and dynamical properties of NaFePO 4 glasses as cathode materials. Specifically, we investigate the effect of glass structure on sodium-ion diffusion, revealing the relative influences of short-range and medium-range order features. We find significant heterogeneity in sodium-ion diffusivity in the glass, with fast-conducting ions residing in less constrained atomic environments with fewer P and Fe neighbors. These more mobile ions are also surrounded by larger ring-type structures. Overall, the results and developed approach present promising avenues for developing high-performance glassy cathodes for next-generation batteries.

Chlorine isotope separations using thermal diffusion

In a chloride molten salt fast reactor (Cl-MSFR), the fuel salt might be comprised of a specific eutectic composition of alkali and alkaline chlorides that solubilize major and minor actinide chlorides as the fertile component(s). Each of the chloride species contain the natural abundance ( 35 Cl ~76% and 37 Cl ~24%) of the two stable isotopes of chlorine 35 Cl and 37 Cl. There has been an ongoing controversy for the operation of the Cl-MSFRs concerning the potential of the 35 Cl(n,γ) 36 Cl, 35 Cl(n,p) 35 S, 35 Cl(n,α) 32 S reactions to produce 36 Cl, 32 S, and 32 P at relevant energies [Bulmer 1956]. The undesirable attributes of irradiated 35 Cl are enumerated further below.

Spinel high-entropy oxides (FeNiCrMnZnX) 3 O 4 (X = Al, mg) as anode materials for high-performance lithium-ion batteries

To address the high cost, cobalt dependency, and resource constraints typical of conventional high-entropy oxide (HEO) anodes, this study reports the successful synthesis of two Co-free, six-component spinel-type HEOs(FeNiCrMnZnAl) 3 O 4 (HEO-Al) and (FeNiCrMnZnMg) 3 O 4 (HEO-Mg), via a sol-gel method. The distinct effects of Al 3+ and Mg 2+ incorporation on the electrochemical performance and lithium storage kinetics were systematically investigated. XRD, Raman, and TEM characterizations confirm that both materials possess a pure spinel phase, uniform particle size, and homogeneous elemental distribution. Notably, electrochemical evaluations reveal that HEO-Al delivers a superior reversible capacity of 480.7 mAh g −1 after 100 cycles at 0.1 A g −1 , and maintains 354.5 mAh g −1 after 1000 long-term cycles at 1 A g −1 , significantly outperforming HEO-Mg. Kinetic analysis indicates that HEO-Al exhibits lower charge transfer resistance, a higher Li + diffusion coefficient, and a pseudocapacitive contribution of up to 82%. Furthermore, these findings demonstrate that Al substitution effectively optimizes the structural stability and lithium storage kinetics of Co-free HEOs, providing a viable strategy for designing low-cost, highly stable HEO anode systems.

Does photoinduced structural change by β-rhombohedral boron occur at room temperature?

β-rhombohedral boron (β-B) is an intriguing solid among the elements. The crystal structure of β-B is widely accepted as a complex structure based on the B 12 clusters, and with a lot of intrinsic structural defects. In the last decade, β-B was proved to be the only elemental semiconductor that exhibits the self-compensation property accompanied by changing structural defects during atom doping. Moreover, it is reported that various physical properties of β-B change discontinuously around 550 K, which may originate from defect diffusion [S. Hoffmann and H. Werheit, Solid State Sciences 14, 1572 (2012)]. We previously reported that a volume expansion of about 1.5% takes place above this temperature (between 650 K and 850 K). On the other hand, this expanded structure is stable in dark conditions for more than 4.5 months. Finally, light irradiation at room temperature reverses the volume back to the initial state, and a possible scenario will be discussed in this paper.

Cation reordering instead of phase transitions: Origins and implications of contrasting lithiation mechanisms in 1D ζ- and 2D α-V 2 O 5

Substantial improvements in cycle life, rate performance, accessible voltage, and reversible capacity are required to realize the promise of Li-ion batteries in full measure. Here, we have examined insertion electrodes of the same composition (V 2 O 5 ) prepared according to the same electrode specifications and comprising particles with similar dimensions and geometries that differ only in terms of their atomic connectivity and crystal structure, specifically two-dimensional (2D) layered α-V 2 O 5 that crystallizes in an orthorhombic space group and one-dimensional (1D) tunnel-structured ζ-V 2 O 5 crystallized in a monoclinic space group. By using particles of similar dimensions, we have disentangled the role of specific structural motifs and atomistic diffusion pathways in affecting electrochemical performance by mapping the dynamical evolution of lithiation-induced structural modifications using ex situ scanning transmission X-ray microscopy, operando synchrotron X-ray diffraction measurements, and phase-field modeling. We find the operation of sharply divergent mechanisms to accommodate increasing concentrations of Li-ions: a series of distortive phase transformations that result in puckering and expansion of interlayer spacing in layered α-V 2 O 5 , as compared with cation reordering along interstitial sites in tunnel-structured ζ-V 2 O 5 . By alleviating distortive phase transformations, the ζ-V 2 O 5 cathode shows reduced voltage hysteresis, increased Li-ion diffusivity, alleviation of stress gradients, and improved capacity retention. The findings demonstrate that alternative lithiation mechanisms can be accessed in metastable compounds by dint of their reconfigured atomic connectivity and can unlock substantially improved electrochemical performance not accessible in the thermodynamically stable phase.

Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics Study of Pd Nucleation on a γ-Al 2 O 3 Surface

We perform ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) free energy simulations to investigate the stability and dynamics of dispersed Pd atoms and subnanometer clusters on γ-Al 2 O 3 . We consider nucleation for varying Pd loadings on dry γ-Al 2 O 3 (100), dry γ-Al 2 O 3 (110) and wet γ-Al 2 O 3 (110) and examine temperature, entropy and water coverage effects on the stability and dynamics of Pd clusters. At low Pd loading (1.07 Pd atoms/nm 2 on the (100) and 0.75 Pd/nm 2 on the (110)), association of the Pd atoms is thermodynamically unfavorable on the dry surfaces and almost thermoneutral on the wet (110) owing to water blocking of the AlIII defect sites. In agreement with past studies, the Pd atoms are quite mobile but the diffusion free energy barriers do not increase with the water coverage, as previously suggested, but rather remain similar in magnitude owing to translational entropy at finite temperatures. At these Pd loadings, oxidized Pd(II) atoms on the wet (110) surface are dispersed and immobile. At higher Pd loading (1.12 and 1.5 Pd atoms/nm 2 ) on the (110) surface, Pd 3 and Pd 4 clusters are thermodynamically very stable and form fast. At the 1.12 Pd atoms/nm 2 loading, the formation of the Pd 3 cluster is two orders of magnitude slower when the surface is hydroxylated as the system becomes somewhat trapped before the dinuclear cluster Pd 2 collides with a Pd atom.

Alkylamine Incorporation in Amidoxime Functionalized Polymers of Intrinsic Microporosity for Gas Capture and Separation

Amidoxime functionalized polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs) are synthesized from postsynthetic functionalization of PIM‐1 with hydroxylamine and processed into chemisorbents with alkylamine incorporation. Strong interaction between functionalized PIM‐1 and primary amines is characterized in detail by diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) study. As‐prepared sorbents not only show the highest CO 2 uptake capacity (37.9 cm 3 g −1 at 0.15 bar and 298 K) recorded in reported PIMs, but they also demonstrate tunable, processable, and stable polymeric sorbent design, which can be nanoengineered for other gas capture and separation applications.

Increased Defect Resistance and Ordering in MnBi 2 (Se 1– x Te x ) 4 via Accurate Diffusion Monte Carlo

Stabilizing materials and controlling defect formation remain key challenges in materials science, particularly for theory, where small energy differences must be resolved for accurate predictions. Here, we applied state-of-the-art theoretical methods to topological materials, focusing on MnBi 2 Te 4 (MBT), which is a promising intrinsic magnetic topological insulator. Antisite defects in MBT alter its electronic structure and magnetism, degrading topological properties and causing experimental inconsistencies. Using diffusion Monte Carlo and density functional theory, we investigated the thermodynamic stability and defect formation in MBT, MnBi 2 Se 4 (MBS), and MnBi 2 (Se 1–x Te x ) 4 . We found that MnBi 2 Se 2 Te 2 can be stable at finite temperatures, with higher defect formation energies due to stronger Mn–Se bonding and reduced internal strain. Se preferentially substitutes Te near Mn instead of Te in the outer layer, encouraging long-range ordering when incorporated. For MnBi 2 (Se 1–x Te x ) 4 , cluster expansion phase diagrams revealed solid solution behavior when x <0.5 and phase separation for larger x. MBT and MBS are topological insulators; therefore, the MnBi 2 (Se 1–x Te x ) 4 family could offer tunable topological behavior and improved stability.

Coordinatively and Spatially Coconfining High-Loading Atomic Sb in Sulfur-Rich 2D Carbon Matrix for Fast K + Diffusion and Storage

The atomically dispersed materials promise ultrafast redox kinetics for alkali-ion storage. However, their relatively low mass loading limits their application. In this work, well-dispersed Sb atoms with high-loading of 23.3 wt % anchored in sulfur-rich amorphous carbon-coated reduced graphene oxide matrix (SbSA/C) are prepared by a coordinative and spatial coconfinement methodology including freeze-casting the well-dissolved Sb-chelates (Sb-thioglycolate) within graphene oxide suspension and post heating-treatment. The reduced graphene oxide substrate features open two-dimensional spatial framework for loading atomically dispersive Sb species, and the pyrolyzed Sb-chelates would provide not only massive desirable heteroatoms (S, O) for coordinating the Sb atoms but also in situ pyrolytic carbon for further spatially separating those dispersive atoms. The coordinative and spatial coconfinement engineering also endows the SbSA/C composite with atomic-level Sb atoms against migration and agglomeration during electrochemical K-storage cycling. In situ TEM reveals the uniform potassiation behavior of the SbSA/C without obvious volume change; DFT calculation and electrochemical characterization suggest the significantly lower K-ion diffusion energy barrier. Therefore, on the basis of both the active Sb center and the coordinative heteroatom, the SbSA/C electrode delivers high fast-charging capacity, outstanding rate capability and long-lifespan performance in half/full K-ion batteries (e.g., a stable capacity of 331.3 mA h g –1 is maintained over 1100 cycles at 1.0 A g –1 for half-cell).

Nonlocal Kernel Network (NKN): a Stable and Resolution-Independent Deep Neural Network.

Neural operators have recently become popular tools for designing solution maps between function spaces in the form of neural networks. Differently from classical scientific machine learning approaches that learn parameters of a known partial differential equation (PDE) for a single instance of the input parameters at a fixed resolution, neural operators approximate the solution map of a family of PDEs [6, 7]. Despite their success, the uses of neural operators are so far restricted to relatively shallow neural networks and confined to learning hidden governing laws. In this work, we propose a novel nonlocal neural operator, which we refer to as nonlocal kernel network (NKN), that is resolution independent, characterized by deep neural networks, and capable of handling a variety of tasks such as learning governing equations and classifying images. Our NKN stems from the interpretation of the neural network as a discrete nonlocal diffusion reaction equation that, in the limit of infinite layers, is equivalent to a parabolic nonlocal equation, whose stability is analyzed via nonlocal vector calculus. The resemblance with integral forms of neural operators allows NKNs to capture long-range dependencies in the feature space, while the continuous treatment of node-to-node interactions makes NKNs resolution independent. The resemblance with neural ODEs, reinterpreted in a nonlocal sense, and the stable network dynamics between layers allow for generalization of NKN’s optimal parameters from shallow to deep networks. This fact enables the use of shallow-to-deep initialization techniques [8]. Our tests show that NKNs outperform baseline methods in both learning governing equations and image classification tasks and generalize well to different resolutions and depths.

Dynamics and chemical mode analysis of plasma thermal-chemical instability

The stability of the weakly ionized plasma and the transition from a stable homogeneous discharge to unstable filaments play an important role in gas laser physics, plasma-assisted combustion, chemical reforming, and material synthesis. Here, theoretical stability analysis and thermal-chemical mode analysis were performed to understand the mechanism of plasma thermal-chemical instability by using a zero-dimensional plasma system with both simplified and detailed chemical kinetics of H 2 /O 2 /N 2 mixtures. The plasma dynamic and kinetic models accounted for multiple physical mechanisms in the chemically-reactive weakly ionized plasma, including ionization, attachment/detachment, recombination, vibrational and electronic energy relaxation, convective and diffusive species/heat removal, Joule heating, and detailed chemical kinetics. An analytical criterion and the explosive mode species/temperature pointers were formulated while the representative active species were identified for different thermal-chemical modes. The results showed that in addition to the classical thermal-ionization mechanism, various chemical modes from chemical heat imbalance and elementary kinetics significantly modified the time dynamics and the stability of the weakly ionized plasma. The present analysis provides insights and guidance to control plasma instability using chemical kinetics.

Integration of hydrophobic gas diffusion layers for zero-gap electrolyzers to enable highly energy-efficient CO 2 electrolysis to C 2 products

Electrochemical CO 2 reduction (eCO2R) is an attractive route for mitigating global CO 2 emissions while producing value-added chemicals. Ethylene is one product of eCO2R and is an essential industrial precursor with a global market of $230 billion. The large-scale implementation of C 2 H 4 -selective CO 2 electrolyzers remains challenging because of low energy efficiencies. In this work, we develop the design principles necessary for incorporating an expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) electrode into a zero-gap electrolyzer while simultaneously developing an integrated electrical front contact that reduces the ohmic resistances inherent to electrically insulating gas diffusion layers. By co-designing the catalyst layer, gas diffusion medium, and operating conditions for a zero-gap ePTFE gas diffusion electrode (GDE), we achieved a full-cell voltage of 2.5 V at 200 mA cm −2 at 25 cm 2 geometric area cell with Faradaic efficiencies of 48% for ethylene and 40% for ethanol. This work highlights strategies for developing a scalable, stable, and highly energy-efficient eCO2R for C 2 products.

Achieving stable all-solid-state lithium-metal batteries by tuning the cathode-electrolyte interface and ionic/electronic transport within the cathode

All-solid-state batteries with sulfide electrolytes and high-nickel layered oxide cathodes attract much interest due to their high specific energy. However, their cycling performance is primarily influenced by the interface between the sulfide electrolyte and the high-Ni layered oxide particles, which requires the use of composite cathodes with high ionic and electronic conductivities to achieve a kinetically stable interface inside the cathode. Here, we apply Ti 2 O 3 particles to the high-Ni cathode LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O 2 (NCM811), where Ti 2 O 3 not only acts as an electronic conductor to provide a fast diffusion path for electrons in the composite cathode, but also absorbs the lattice oxygen released from NCM811 cathode during cycling, stabilizing the Li 6 PS 5 Cl/NCM811 interface and suppressing electrolyte oxidation. The as-modified cathode exhibits an initial specific capacity of 192 mAh g -1 and retains 166 mAh g -1 after 140 cycles at 0.1C rate with a good capacity retention of 86.5%. Furthermore, the composite cathode displays high rate capability even at 1C rate. By contrast, the unmodified Li 6 PS 5 Cl/NCM811 cathode shows poor cycling performance with only 130 mAh g -1 remaining after 130 cycles. This work provides a new direction for the design of cathodes for all-solid-state batteries that can deliver high specific energy with long cycle life.

Design Strategies of Spinel Oxide Frameworks Enabling Reversible Mg-Ion Intercalation

In this study, reversible Mg 2+ intercalation in metal oxides frameworks is a key enabler for an operational Mg ion battery with high energy density needed for the next generation of energy storage technologies. While functional Mg-ion batteries have been achieved in structures with soft anions (e.g., S 2- and Se 2- ), they do not meet energy density requirements to compete with the current rechargeable lithium-ion batteries due to their low insertion potentials, emphasizing the necessity of finding an oxide-based cathode that operates at high potentials. A leading hypothesis to explain the limited availability of oxide Mg-ion cathodes is the belief that Mg 2+ has sluggish diffusion kinetics in oxides due to strong electrostatic interactions between the Mg 2+ ions and oxide anions in the lattice. From this assessment, it can be hypothesized that such rate limiting kinetic shortcomings can be mitigated by tailoring an oxide framework through creating less stable Mg 2+ - O 2- coordination.
