MOF-Transformed In 2 O 3-x @C Nanocorn Electrocatalyst for Efficient CO 2 Reduction to HCOOH

For electrochemical CO 2 reduction to HCOOH, an ongoing challenge is to design energy efficient electrocatalysts that can deliver a high HCOOH current density (J HCOOH ) at a low overpotential. Indium oxide is good HCOOH production catalyst but with low conductivity. In this work, we report a unique corn design of In 2 O 3-x @C nanocatalyst, wherein In 2 O 3-x nanocube as the fine grains dispersed uniformly on the carbon nanorod cob, resulting in the enhanced conductivity. Excellent performance is achieved with 84% Faradaic efficiency (FE) and 11 mA cm –2 J HCOOH at a low potential of – 0.4 V versus RHE. At the current density of 100 mA cm –2 , the applied potential remained stable for more than 120 h with the FE above 90%. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the abundant oxygen vacancy in In 2 O 3-x has exposed more In 3+ sites with activated electroactivity, which facilitates the formation of HCOO* intermediate. Operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy also confirms In 3+ as the active site and the key intermediate of HCOO* during the process of CO 2 reduction to HCOOH.

Furthermore, significant improvements have also been made by involving the secondary ligand coordination sphere in CO 2 reduction. Hydrogen bonding interactions with CO 2 and charged groups in the secondary sphere in particular are shown to lower overpotentials, stabilize intermediates or transition states and improve catalytic rates.

Ultrathin PdPt bimetallic nanowires with enhanced electrocatalytic performance for hydrogen evolution reaction

We report a general bottom-up synthetic methodology to epitaxially grow 3-nm-thick single-crystalline PdPt bimetallic nanowires using amphiphilic dioctadecyldimethylammonium chloride as the surfactant template. Mechanistic studies show that the existence of Pd element is critical in the synthesis of bimetallic PdPt nanowires with controllable atomic ratios. Due to synergistic effect of anisotropic single-crystalline ultrathin one-dimensional nanostructures and bimetallic elemental compositions, the resulting PdPt nanowires exhibit superior electrocatalytic activity and stability towards the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Among them, bimetallic Pd 86 Pt 14 nanowires show the best HER activity with a small overpotential of only 0.8 mV in acidic media at a current density of 10 mA/cm 2 (12.8 mV positive than that of commercial Pt nanoparticles), and excellent stability with only 4.6% loss in activity after current-time chronoamperometric responses for 26 h. As a result, this surfactant template-directing approach opens a general method for precise control of anisotropic nanostructures in diverse bimetallic nanomaterials for the high-performance electrocatalysts.

Elucidating effects of catalyst loadings and porous transport layer morphologies on operation of proton exchange membrane water electrolyzers

Producing green hydrogen efficiently via proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) is the key for achieving decarbonization targets. Iridium catalyst is expensive, and it is important to minimize its use and to optimize interface between Ir and ionomer or water for higher utilization of catalyst in oxygen evolution reaction. In this work, x-ray computed tomography along with electrochemical and modeling techniques are used to characterize the interface for two different porous transport layers (PTLs) and catalyst layers at various loadings. We show that low porosity sintered PTLs exhibit higher interfacial contact with the catalyst and the membrane that results in improved kinetics. Radiography and modeling results indicate that oxygen taking multiple transport pathways through the PTL results in slug flow through the channels that reduces mass transport overpotential. Based on the results, we suggest design guidelines for high efficiency and durable PEMWE and their components.

LaCeO x coupled N-doped graphene/Ru single-atoms as a binary-site catalyst for efficient hydrogen evolution based on hydrogen spillover

Based on the hydrogen spillover effect, versatile binary-site catalysts are promising for the alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). In which one site can adsorb and dissociate water, while the neighboring site is favorable for liberating hydrogen. Inspired by these possibilities, oxygen vacancy (O v )-rich LaCeO x coupled N-doped graphene/Ru single-atoms (LaCeO x @NGr/Ru 1 ) was synthesized as an efficient dual-site HER catalyst. It delivered an impressive low overpotential of 22 mV at a current density of 10mAcm –2 and a slight Tafel slope of 40 mV dec –1 in an alkaline medium, outstanding the advanced Ru-based catalysts. Moreover, this promising binary-component catalyst exhibited higher mass activity and longer lasting durability than commercial Pt/C catalyst (20 wt%). Finally, experimental and theoretical investigations provided insights into the HER mechanisms of LaCeO x @NGr/Ru 1 based on three indispensable steps: water adsorption and dissociation on O v -rich LaCeO x , diffusion of generated H* species towards Ce 3+ -N-Ru 1 bridges, and hydrogen evolution on Ru 1 sites.

Regulating catalyst and ionomer interactions to promote oxygen transport in fuel cells

The cost of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) has been a major impediment to their widespread commercialization. Reducing platinum (Pt) usage in PEMFC represents an essential step in lowering the cost. However, decreasing Pt loading in the cathode catalyst layer (CCL) often leads to a significant increase in the local oxygen transport resistance (R Local ), which not only slows the oxygen reduction reaction but also causes a higher polarization overpotential. The poisoning of Pt by perfluorosulfonic acid ionomers also becomes more predominant at low Pt loadings. Therefore, regulating catalyst and ionomer interactions by optimizing their interface in the CCL is crucial to improving PEMFC performance. Here, in this review, the strategies of improving oxygen transport by controlling Pt-ionomer interactions and interfaces through catalyst design, ionomer structure, and incorporation of additives are summarized. Finally, perspectives on future optimization of catalyst and ionomer interactions are proposed.

Tantalum oxide stabilized molybdenum-doped ruthenium oxide electrocatalysts for PEM water electrolysis

Proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolysis offers key advantages, including high current density, high efficiency, and compact system architecture for hydrogen production. However, its widespread implementation is limited by the scarcity and high cost of Ir-based anodic catalysts. Herein, we report an Ir-free electrocatalyst for the acidic oxygen evolution reaction (OER): tantalum oxide (TaO x )–coated molybdenum-doped RuO 2 (TaO x -MoRuO 2 ). The catalyst exhibits a low overpotential of 180 mV at 10 mA cm -2 and excellent durability, with a degradation rate of 0.034 mV h -1 over a 150-hour test at 50 mA cm -2 —surpassing other Ru-based catalysts evaluated under similar conditions. A PEM electrolyzer employing TaO x -MoRuO 2 as the anode maintained stable operation for 100 hours at 500 mA cm -2 . In conclusion, the TaO x coating layer suppresses Ru and Mo dissolution, thus enhancing their stability likely via interfacial electronic reconfiguration of Ru and Mo mediated by bridging oxygen atoms.

Hollow-structured Ni-N-C catalysts for highly selective CO 2 electroreduction

Atomically dispersed single-atom catalysts have emerged as promising non-precious catalyst alternatives to expensive Ag and Au catalysts for electrochemical CO 2 reduction reaction (CO 2 RR). In particular, nickel-nitrogen-carbon (Ni-N-C) catalysts have demonstrated a high faradaic efficiency (FE) toward CO formation at low overpotentials. Nonetheless, the exact nature of Ni active sites under CO 2 RR remains elusive and conventional Ni-N-C catalysts are limited by microporosity and low density of Ni single atoms, hindering performance in CO 2 electrolyzers. Here, we report the synthesis of hollow-structured Ni-N-C ( hs -Ni-N-C) catalysts via a post-synthesis modification (PSM) strategy using partial ligand exchange of 2-methylimidazole with 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole. This approach enables the formation of a hollow structure, resulting in more than a twofold increase in Ni atom density compared to regular Ni-N-C (r-Ni-N-C). In a zero-gap CO 2 electrolyzer, the optimized hs -Ni-N-C allows for achieving an FE CO of 97% at a current density of > 100 mA cm⁻ 2 , while maintaining high CO selectivity with stable performance over 100 h at 2.5 V. hs-Ni-N-C shows a more than sevenfold increase in the CO partial current density relative to r-Ni-N-C resulting from the combined effects of a higher density of Ni single-atom sites, improved kinetics, and lower transport resistance under the operating conditions, as indicated by electrochemical impedance spectra and distribution of relaxation times analysis. Operando high energy-resolution X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) reveals that atop-bonded CO on Ni single sites induces dynamic transformations of the Ni–N coordination environment, leading to a symmetric coordination structure of hs -Ni-N-C. Under CO 2 RR, the catalysts undergo a more pronounced structural change and form a minor fraction of Ni nanoparticles. Density functional theory calculations are consistent with the XAS results and provide molecular insights showing that the interplay between protonation and CO adsorption leads to adsorbate-induced restructuring of the Ni single atom. This work demonstrates the synergistic role of hollow structure and high-density Ni atoms in governing CO 2 RR selectivity and provides mechanistic insights into the structural dynamics of single-atom catalysts under operating conditions.

Alternative route for electrochemical ammonia synthesis by reduction of nitrate on copper nanosheets

We propose an efficient and clean avenue for ammonia synthesis, via electroreduction of nitrate which could be obtained from industrial wastewater, domestic sewage, sodium nitrate ore, and nitrification of bacteria and electrochemical oxidation of nitrogen, which addresses the water pollution issues and simultaneously upgrades the nitrate to high-value ammonia. At a low overpotential of -0.15 V versus RHE, Cu nanosheets achieved an ammonia formation rate of 390.1 μg mg -1 Cu h -1 and a Faradaic efficiency of 99.7%, attributed to suppression of the HER activity and apparent improvement of the rate of rate-determining step on Cu (111). Such an ammonia formation rate is more than two orders of magnitude higher than electrochemical nitrogen reduction reaction to ammonia. This work not only develops a powerful strategy to the rational design of robust and efficient catalysts by crystal facet engineering, but also provides an alternative route for electrochemical ammonia synthesis by reduction of nitrate.

Epitaxial Growth and Band Alignment of p-NiO/n-Fe2O3 Heterojunction on Al2O3(0001)

Fe2O3 is one of the promising oxide semiconductors as photoanodes for photoelectrochemical water splitting, but its efficiency is still limited by the short diffusion length of photo-excited carriers. Using the internal electric field formed at a p-n heterojunction (HJ) is an efficient strategy to mitigate such limitation. Accordingly, the interfacial atomic structure and band alignment are the most crucial parameters for efficiency optimization. In this work, we report on the epitaxial growth and determination of the band energy alignment of NiO/Fe2O3 p-n heterojunction grown on Al2O3(0001) substrate by pulsed laser deposition. We show that high crystalline quality NiO(111) thin films can be grown on Fe2O3(0001) with epitaxial relationships of [1 ¯11]NiO||[0001 ¯ ]Fe2O3(out-of-plane), [1 ¯1 ¯0]NiO||[011 ¯0]Fe2O3 and [1 ¯12 ¯ ]NiO||[21 ¯1 ¯0]Fe2O3(in-plane). The rotation of NiO hexagons by 30° can effectively reduce the lattice mismatch from ~17.4% to ~1.58%. High resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy reveals that valence and conduction band offset of NiO/Fe2O3 heterojunction are 0.7 eV and 2.3 eV with an upward band bending potential of 0.23 eV for Fe2O3 and a downward band bending potential of 0.32 eV for NiO, respectively. This kind of interfacial band alignment not only facilitates the charge separation, but lowers the overpotentials for oxygen evolution reaction.

Self-grown NiCuO x hybrids on a porous NiCuC substrate as an HER cathode in alkaline solution

Electrocatalysts converted directly from the substrates hold the key to achieve high catalytic activity and durability due to their high bonding strength, intimate electronic contact, and tunable phase composition. Herein, an electrically conductive porous NiCuC substrate was adopted to develop a multi-porous NiCuO x /NiCuC hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalyst using a one-step oxidation method in this research. The NiCuO x hybrids were characterized as three typical layers: an outer layer with NiCuO 2 solid solution phase, a partially oxidized intermediate layer, and an inner layer with limited stable oxygen content. Here, the NiCuO x /NiCuC possesses abundant Ni(II)–Cu(II) sites to accelerate the Volmer step via the electrostatic effect with OH – , numerous metallic NiCu sites to facilitate the H adsorption, and highly accessible channels to promote the Heyrovsky step during HER catalysis. As a result, high electrocatalytic performance was obtained with an overpotential of 116 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm –2 in 1.0 M potassium hydroxide, and a stable catalytic performance during the HER process for more than 24 h.

Orbital engineering of C 3 N monolayer to design efficient synergistic sites electrocatalyst for boosting alkaline hydrogen evolution

Alkaline water electrolyzer (AWE) is one of the promising technologies for hydrogen production at the industrial level. However, energetic inefficiency and low current density impede the development of AWE. Compared with acidic conditions, the Volmer step in alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) involves extra water dissociation, whose barrier is one of the most vital reasons for the sluggish kinetics of alkaline HER. Herein, choosing C 3 N monolayer as an ideal theoretical model, we design several empty orbitals through intentional metal doping, and further construct synergistic sites on the C 3 N monolayer to accelerate both water dissociation and hydrogen adsorption for alkaline HER. Furthermore, the as-designed Be-doped and Cr-doped C 3 N monolayers exhibit rather low theoretical overpotential of 0.476 eV and 0.216 eV for alkaline HER, respectively, which are even lower than Pt (1 1 1) surface. Moreover, by comparing the water dissociation behaviors on metal-doped C3N monolayer, we find that the empty orbitals with suitable orientation and energy level are useful for promoting the water dissociation process, indicating that we can use orbital engineering strategy to regulate the adsorption strength between adsorbate and surface site. Consequently, it is reasonable to suggest that our orbital engineering strategy would significantly benefit the design of highly efficient alkaline HER electrocatalysts.

Nickel sulfide nanostructures prepared by laser irradiation for efficient electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction and supercapacitors

Rational design and synthesis of transition metal sulfide complex nanostructures are significant for achieving desired materials properties for a variety of applications. Herein, we synthesized nickel sulfide (NiS) nanostructures using laser irradiation in an aqueous solution and under the ambient condition. Crystalline nanostructures with high phase-purity were achieved without further calcination. Other transition metal sulfides, such as CuS and ZnS, were also successfully synthesized using the laser irradiation approach, suggesting the practical application of this method. The hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) measurements show the NiS nanostructures synthesized for 4h (NiS-4h) not only exhibited competitive overpotential (-159 mV vs. RHE at 10 A/g), lower Tafel slope (218 mV/dec) but also delivered long-term stability (14 A/g at -250 mV $vs.$ RHE for 12h). Moreover, the NiS-4h functioned as the electrode for supercapacitor with excellent specific capacitance (3761 F/g at 10 mV/s), reversibility and rate capability (1152 F/g at 100 mV/s). These superb electrochemical performances are attributed to the remarkable value of electrochemically active surface area (ECSA) and synergistic effect of Ni 3+ OOH for HER electrocatalytic activities, while the co-existence of Ni 2+ and Ni 3+ facilitates the rich redox reactions of NiS for supercapacitor.

Lithiophilic V 2 O 5 nanobelt arrays decorated 3D framework hosts for highly stable composite lithium metal anodes

The lithium metal anode has been considered to be an optimal anode material for high-energy-density battery system due to its ultrahigh specific capacity. However, the sharp dendrite growth and infinite volume expansion have significantly impeded its commercial application. In this paper, we propose that V 2 O 5 as the lithiophilic substance can be decorated onto 3D stable frameworks to fabricate dendrite-suppressed composite Li metal anodes via a molten Li infusion method. It is demonstrated that the energetic chemical reaction between V 2 O 5 and molten Li together with the capillary effect based on the nanostructure of interconnected V 2 O 5 nanobelt arrays contributes synergistically to the great Li affinity of the V 2 O 5 -Ni foam (V 2 O 5 -NF) host and facilitate the efficient and uniform intake of molten Li into the 3D framework. Benefitting from the homogeneous Li distribution in the framework, the decreased local current density of the electrode and the stable property of the host, dendrite-free Li stripping/plating behavior and alleviated volume fluctuation have been achieved for the Li-V 2 O 5 -NF composite anode. Compared with the bare Li anode, the as-obtained Li-V 2 O 5 -NF composite anode exhibits much stable stripping/plating profiles with low overpotential (~18 mV) for ultralong lifespan (1600 h) at a current density of 1 mA cm -2 in symmetric Li/Li cell. Furthermore, outstanding rate capability and long-term cycling performance (78.8% capacity retention after 500 cycles under 2 C) are obtained in full cells when coupled with Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 (LTO) cathodes, indicating a promising potential for practical application. Moreover, this work demonstrates that using a new lithiophilic material, V 2 O 5 , should be an effective method to construct high stable 3D Li metal anode for Li metal battery.

Towards fast-charging high-energy lithium-ion batteries: From nano- to micro-structuring perspectives

Electric vehicles (EVs) have been playing an indispensable role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions for our modern society. However, current EVs are difficult to meet people’s diverse travel needs, especially in long endurance and fast-charging capacities. At the heart of this issue is the physicochemical limit of current lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), which are the core parts for powering the vehicles. Hence, LIBs with simultaneous high energy and power are critically required to further promote the development of EVs. Here, in this review, we first summarize the key electrochemical processes in electrochemical reactions which lead to the corresponding overpotentials in or between multiple battery components. Furthermore, numerical simulations are employed to quantitatively analyze the effects of versatile electrode parameters on electrochemical properties in high-energy NMC811//graphite systems. On the basis of the in-depth understandings from simulation, recent experimental efforts on designing electroactive materials and electrode architectures across multiple length scales are discussed. Among them, nano-structuring can promote local mass transport and stabilize the interfaces at the particle level, while micro-structuring can establish efficient pathways for charge carriers at the electrode level. Finally, we conclude that a tight feedback loop among structure engineering, characterization and simulation should be followed to speed up the understanding of the deficiencies existing in current electrode designs as well as point out the possible electrode optimization routes for next-generation fast-charging LIBs.

Enhancing durability and activity toward oxygen evolution reaction using single-site Re-doped NiFeO x catalysts at ampere-level

NiFeO x materials are known as among the most active catalysts toward oxygen evolution reaction (OER) for hydrogen generation in alkaline media. Nevertheless, the long-term durability of NiFeO x catalysts for OER is still too far to the industrial application. Herein, we prepared a NiFeReO x catalyst with single-site Re dopants and observed that the single-site Re dopants could significantly enhance the durability without compromising the activity. A cell voltage of 1.82 V without iR correction is noted at the current density of 3000 mA cm –2 in anion-exchange membrane water electrolyzer (AEMWE) with NiFeReO x catalyst, and a very small degradation is observed under 2000 and 1000 mA cm –2 , which remarkably outperforms the pristine NiFeO x . Additionally, the overpotential of 305 mV at 10 mA cm –2 is achieved with the NiFeReO x catalyst, which is lower than 50 mV compared with the pristine NiFeO x catalyst, together with a smaller Tafel slope of 54.3 mV dec -1 . The boosted OER durability and activity of the NiFeReO x catalyst could be attributed to the strong electron-withdrawing property of Re 7+ single atoms leading to the electronic structure optimization and stabilization of Ni/Fe active sites. Our insights propose a new path for designing NiFeO x catalysts with high durability and activity toward OER.

Unraveling the relationship between physicochemical properties of NiFeReOx catalysts and the correlated performance toward electrochemical oxygen evolution reaction

NiFeO x catalysts with single site Re dopants exhibit much higher active and stability toward electrochemical oxygen evolution reaction (OER) compared to traditional NiFeO x catalysts. Nevertheless, the relationship between physicochemical properties of NiFeReO x catalysts and the correlated performance toward OER is unclear, which hampers to enhance the OER performance further. Herein, we prepared a series of NiFeReO x catalysts with different physicochemical properties by treating them at different temperatures (up to 350 °C) and then evaluated their performance toward OER. Here, the results show that heat treatment can convert all metal oxidation states to higher values as well as specific surface areas, which are believed to favor real active site generation and OER activity enhancement. A decrease in activity is observed with the temperature increase at the low current range, and the smallest overpotential of 248 mV at 10 mA cm −2 is achieved with the pristine NiFeReO x catalyst. In contrast, the heat-treated samples possess smaller Tafel slopes and lower charge transfer resistance likely due to enhanced intrinsic activity (from higher oxidation states) and conductivity, which facilitate the reaction kinetics and surpass the pristine sample at a large current density. Additionally, the sample treated at 350 °C exhibits a higher activity at 1000 mA cm −2 (1.68 V vs. RHE compared to pristine sample of 1.92 V vs. RHE); however, it manifests a poorer stability compared to the pristine one due to the imbalance of reconstruction/transformations that occurred on the catalyst surface during OER operation. Our work unravels the relationship between physicochemical properties of NiFeReO x catalysts and the correlated OER performance and provides valuable insights for designing NiFeReO x catalysts with high activity and durability.

Covalent adaptable networks for electrolyte–binder integration in recyclable lithium metal batteries

Lithium-metal batteries (LMBs) are considered a promising next-generation energy storage technology due to their exceptionally high energy density. However, the development of solid polymer electrolytes and cathode binders for LMBs faces critical challenges, including interfacial instability, poor recyclability, and growing environmental concerns. In particular, current systems often rely on non-recyclable components featuring permanently crosslinked networks and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), such as poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF), which cause battery waste and environmental harm. Herein, we introduce a multifunctional covalent adaptable network (CAN) platform based on thermally reversible Diels–Alder (DA) chemistry, designed for dual functionality as a CAN-based electrolyte (CAE) and a CAN-based cathode binder. The CAE achieves high ionic conductivity and strong storage modulus (1.4 mS cm −1 and ∼ 10 5 Pa at room temperature, respectively) and enables stable long-term cycling in symmetric Li||Li cells for over 2000 h with low overpotential. When it is applied as a cathode binder in LiFePO 4 (LFP) composite electrodes (C-LFP), the CAN matrix significantly reduces interfacial resistance and enhances discharge capacity compared to conventional PVDF-based systems. Thermal treatment induces self-healing at the cathode–electrolyte interface, further improving contact and yielding a discharge capacity of 150 mAh g −1 at 0.5 C. Moreover, the dynamic CAN architecture allows efficient recovery and reuse of lithium salts from spent electrolytes through retro-DA reactions under mild conditions (∼80 °C), establishing a low-energy, cost-effective recycling pathway. In conclusion, this work presents a scalable and sustainable strategy for high-performance LMBs by integrating recyclability, interfacial healing, and PFAS-free design, offering a holistic solution aligned with circular economy principles and next-generation battery demands.
