Tailoring amorphous boron nitride for high-performance two-dimensional electronics

Two-dimensional (2D) materials have garnered significant attention in recent years due to their atomically thin structure and unique electronic and optoelectronic properties. To harness their full potential for applications in next-generation electronics and photonics, precise control over the dielectric environment surrounding the 2D material is critical. The lack of nucleation sites on 2D surfaces to form thin, uniform dielectric layers often leads to interfacial defects that degrade the device performance, posing a major roadblock in the realization of 2D-based devices. Here, we demonstrate a wafer-scale, low-temperature process (<250 °C) using atomic layer deposition (ALD) for the synthesis of uniform, conformal amorphous boron nitride (aBN) thin films. ALD deposition temperatures between 125 and 250 °C result in stoichiometric films with high oxidative stability, yielding a dielectric strength of 8.2 MV/cm. Utilizing a seed-free ALD approach, we form uniform aBN dielectric layers on 2D surfaces and fabricate multiple quantum well structures of aBN/MoS2 and aBN-encapsulated double-gated monolayer (ML) MoS2 field-effect transistors to evaluate the impact of aBN dielectric environment on MoS2 optoelectronic and electronic properties. Our work in scalable aBN dielectric integration paves a way towards realizing the theoretical performance of 2D materials for next-generation electronics.

High temperature stability of regrown and alloyed Ohmic contacts to AlGaN/GaN heterostructure up to 500 °C

This Letter reports the stability of regrown and alloyed Ohmic contacts to AlGaN/GaN-on-Si high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) for high temperature applications up to 500 °C. Transfer length method (TLM) measurements from 25 to 500 °C in air show that the regrown contacts appear to be stable up to 500 °C during short term (approximately 1 h) testing, while alloyed contacts appear to decrease in contact resistance from 300 to 500 °C though increases in the error bounds due to increase sheet resistance make it difficult to conclude definitely. Additionally, longer term testing shows both technologies remain stable at least up to 48 h at 500 °C, after which the large increase in sheet resistance makes the measurement uncertainty too large to conclude definitively. Advanced microscopy images indicate both the regrown and alloyed contact regions remain structurally intact after prolonged high temperature exposure with no visible degradation in crystallinity or metal composition.

Magnetic domain structures in ultrathin Bi2Te3/CrTe2 heterostructures

Abstract Chromium tellurium compounds are important two-dimensional van der Waals ferromagnetic materials with high Curie temperature and chemical stability in air, which is promising for applications in spintronic devices. Here, high-quality spin-orbital-torque (SOT) device, Bi2Te3/CrTe2 heterostructure was epitaxially grown on Al2O3 (0001) substrates. Anomalous Hall measurements indicate the existence of strong ferromagnetism in this device with the CrTe2 thickness down to 10 nm. In order to investigate its micromagnetic structure, cryogenic magnetic force microscope (MFM) was utilized to measure the magnetic domain evolutions at various temperatures and magnetic fields. The virgin domain state of the device shows a worm-like magnetic domain structure with the size around 0.6 ~ 0.8 µm. Larger irregular-shape magnetic domains (＞1µm) can be induced and pinned, after the field is increased to coercive field and ramped back to low fields. The temperature-dependent MFM signals exhibit a nice mean-field-like ferromagnetic transition with Curie temperature around 201.5 K, indicating a robust ferromagnetic ordering. Such device can be potentially implemented in future magnetic memory technology.

On-axis complex-amplitude modulation for the generation of super-stable vector modes

We propose a technique to generate complex vector beams with high quality and stability. Our approach relies on the combination of complex amplitude modulation (CAM) and on-axis modulation, two techniques that seem incompatible at first glance. The first one produces scalar structured light fields in phase and amplitude with high accuracy, while the second one is preferred for generating vector beams of great stability although of reduced quality. Specifically, the idea behind our technique is to send the shaped light produced by CAM co-axially with the zeroth order, rather than diffracted to the first order, as it is commonly done. We first describe our technique, explaining the generation of the hologram and experimental setup to isolate the desired vector mode, and then present experimental results that corroborate our approach. We first address the quality of the generated beams using Stokes polarimetry to reconstruct their transverse polarisation distribution, and then compare their stability against the same mode produced using a Sagnac interferometric method. Our vector beams are of good quality and remarkably stable, two qualities that we expect will appeal to the community working with vector modes.

Ultramicroporous cardo-pendant polyamide nanofilms for enhanced organic solvent nanofiltration

Permeable, selective, and stable polymeric membranes are essential for efficient molecular separation in organic solvents. Polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs) with rigid and twisted chain structures offer abundant pores for high solvent permeability and are emerging as an ideal membrane material. However, guaranteeing high separation selectivity and stability is challenging owing to the wide pore size distribution and low swelling resistance in organic solvents. In this work, we developed intrinsically ultramicroporous polyamides (PAs) with cardo-pendant groups to create crosslinking, ultrathin, and defect-free nanofilms for organic solvent nanofiltration. The molecular simulation confirmed the pivotal role of cardo-pendant group structures in the amine monomers and exhibited their effect in creating pore channel structures within the PAs. Distinctive rigid fluorenyl-based cardo-pendant groups were introduced in amine monomers to finely tailor the packing of PA chains for high ultramicroporosity and a finely tuned pore size. We further achieved the growth of such PAs using a cyclic deposition strategy, in-situ generating highly crosslinking nanofilms with an ultralow thickness of 23–36 nm without structure relaxation. As such, the typically-designed PA membranes demonstrated high and stable solvent permeance (e.g., 18 L m−2 h−1 bar−1 for methanol) and high solute rejection (up to 95 % rejection of 306 Da Azure I), which is superior to its counterparts and current PIM membranes, presenting a new perspective for efficient organic solvent nanofiltration.

Highly sensitive and selective fluorescent "turn-on" sensor for Ag+ detection using MAPbBr3@PCN-221(Fe): An efficient Ag+-bridged energy transfer from perovskite to MOF.

Metal ion-induced water pollution is attracting increasing public attention. Perovskite quantum dots and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), owing to their outstanding properties, hold promise as ideal probes for detecting metal ions. In this study, a composite material, MAPbBr3@PCN-221(Fe), was prepared by encapsulating MAPbBr3 quantum dots with PCN-221(Fe), demonstrating high chemical stability and good reusability. The composite material shows a sensitive fluorescence turn-on signal in the presence of silver ions. The fluorescence intensity of the composite material exhibits a linear relationship with the concentration of Ag+ in the solution, with a low detection limit of 8.68 µM. Moreover, the fluorescence signal exhibits a strong selectivity for Ag+, enabling the detection of Ag+ concentration. This fluorescence turn-on signal originates from the Ag+-bridged energy transfer from the conductive band of MAPbBr3 to the excited state of the MOF, which is directly proportional to the concentration of silver ions. Simultaneously, this finding may open up a new possibility in artificial controlled energy transfer from perovskite to MOF for future development.

Sorption Characteristics and Chromatographic Separation of 90Y3+ from 90Sr2+ from Aqueous Media by Chelex-100 (Anion Ion Exchange) Packed Column.

There is growing demand for separation of 90Y carrier free from 90Sr coexisting to produce high purity 90Y essential for radiopharmaceutical uses. Thus, in this context the sorption profiles of Y3+ and Sr2+ from aqueous solutions containing diethylenetriaminepenta acetic acid (DTPA), ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid (EDTA), acetic acid, citric acid, or NaCl onto Chelex-100 (anion ion exchange) solid sorbent were critically studied for developing an efficient and low-cost methodology for selective separation of Y3+ from Sr2+ ions (1.0 × 10-5 M). Batch experiments displayed relative chemical extraction percentage (98 ± 5.4%) of Y3+ from aqueous acetic acid solution onto Chelex-100 (anion ion exchanger), whereas Sr2+ species showed no sorption. Hence, a selective separation of Y3+ from its parent 90Sr2+ has been established based upon percolation of the aqueous solution of Y3+ and Sr2+ ions containing acetic acid at pH 1-2 through Chelex-100 sorbent packed column at a 2 mL min-1 flow rate. Y3+ species were retained quantitatively while Sr2+ ions were not sorbed and passed through the sorbent packed column without extraction. The sorbed Y3+ species were then recovered from the sorbent packed column with HNO3 (1.0 M) at a 1.0 mL min-1 flow rate. A dual extraction mechanism comprising absorption associated to "weak-base anion exchanger" and "solvent extraction" of Y3+ as (YCl6)3- and an extra part for "surface adsorption" of Y3+ by the sorbent is proposed. The established method was validated by measuring the radiochemical (99.2 ± 2 1%), radionuclide purity and retardation factor (Rf = 10.0 ± 0.1 cm) of 90Y3+ recovered in the eluate. Ultimately, the sorbent packed column also presented high stability for reusing 2-3 cycles without drop in its efficiency (±5%) towards Y3+ uptake and relative chemical recovery. A proposed flow sheet describing the analytical procedures for the separation of 90Y3+ from 90Sr2+ using chelating Chelex 100 (anion exchange) packed column is also included.

Моделирование турбулентной естественной конвекции на основе 2-жидкостного подхода

The paper provides mathematical modeling of turbulent natural air convection at a heated vertical plate based on a fairly recently developed two-liquid turbulence model. The considered problem, despite its relative simplicity, contains all the main elements characteristic of the currents near the wall due to buoyancy forces. A significant disadvantage of the RANS turbulence models used to solve such problems is that for their numerical implementation it is necessary to set the laminar-to-turbulent transition point, which must be determined experimentally. Thus, all RANS models are unable to describe a laminar-to-turbulent transition zone. Therefore, the main purpose of the work is to test the ability of the two-liquid turbulence model to describe the transition zone. Well-known publications have shown that the two-liquid model has high accuracy and stability, and is also able to adequately describe anisotropic turbulence. The turbulence model used in this work is supplemented with an additional thermal force, which can be ignored in many flows with forced convection. However, in the natural convection currents, it is this force that contributes to the transition of the flow regime. To validate the model, as well as to verify the computational procedure, the numerical results obtained are compared with the results of the well-known RANS turbulence models (the one-parameter Spalart-Allmaras (SA) model and the Reynolds stress transfer (RSM) model), as well as with the available experimental data. It is shown that the two-liquid model adequately reproduces the laminar-to-turbulent transition zone, and the numerical results obtained are in good agreement with experimental data.

Anti-siting for stabilizing structure and modulating cationic/anionic redox reactions

The layered Mn-rich oxide cathode materials with oxygen redox activity are highly appealing in sodium-ion (Na-ion) batteries because of their high energy density and low cost. However, the applications of such materials are hindered by issues such as low Mn redox potential and irreversible phase transformation. Rational modulation of the ordering of the transition metal (TM) layer can inhibit the constraints and stabilize the anionic redox reactions. Herein we introduce stable Li/Mn anti-siting in the TM layer of P2-type Na0.6Li0.2Mn0.8O2 as a strategy to create abundant Mn sites and O sites that are inequivalent to the counterpart of each in the lattice, and thus to prompt the diverse Mn and O redox. The self-locking of the anti-siting energetically inhibits the P2-O2 phase transformation and the resultant structural degradations. In addition, such modulation activates more Mn in charge compensation at high potentials. As a result, this regulation increases the reversible capacity from 104.2 mAh g−1 to 153.7 mAh g−1 and enhances the cycling stability of Na0.6Li0.2Mn0.8O2. This anti-siting strategy offers a new solution to designing cathode materials with high structural stability and high energy density.

Stable Electron Spin Pan on Aromatic Oxalic Acid Radical

Comprehensive SummaryThe stability of organic radicals in ambient condition is important for their practical application. During the development of organic radical chemistry, the electron‐withdrawing and steric hindrance groups are usually introduced to improve the stability of radicals via reducing the reactivity of radicals with oxygen in air. Herein, the electron‐withdrawing carbonyl groups are introduced to construct a planar aromatic oxalic acid radical (IDF‐O8) with two‐dimensional electron spin pan structure. Interestingly, IDF‐O8 exhibited a low optical bandgap of 0.91 eV in film, however, the multiple quinone resonance structures between electron‐withdrawing ketone and phenol radicals contribute to the high stability of open‐shell radical IDF‐O8 without protection of large steric hindrance groups. Under the irradiation of 808 nm (1.2 W·cm–2), IDF‐O8 reaches 147 °C in powder state. This work provides an efficient synthesis route for the open‐shell electron spin pan system, which is different from the famous fullerene, carbon nanotube and graphene. The electron spin pan can be extended to spin tube or spin sphere system based on the design strategy of aromatic inorganic acid radicals in future.

Synthesis of High‐Sodium‐Content Oxythiosilicate Glass Electrolytes Via Sodium Polysulfide

AbstractSulfide glass electrolytes with high ionic conductivities and formabilities are key materials for practical use in all‐solid‐state sodium secondary batteries. Both sealing and quenching are considered to be necessary for producing high‐alkali‐content sulfide glass electrolytes. In this study, the glass‐forming ability of sodium thiosilicate glasses is enhanced by adding a small quantity of SiO2. Consequently, high‐sodium‐content oxythiosilicate glass is synthesized without sealing and quenching processes under Ar atmosphere. The prepared Na4SiS4·0.200SiO2 (molar ratio) glass exhibits ionic conductivity of 4.0 × 10−5 S cm−1 at 25 °C, surpassing that of Na4SiS4 glass. The Na4SiS4·0.200SiO2 glass shows high reduction stability to sodium metal. The all‐solid‐state Na metal/Na4SiS4·0.200SiO2 glass/Na2.88Sb0.88W0.12S4/TiS2 cell shows a reversible capacity of 140 mAh g−1 for 5 cycles. The amount of H2S gas generated in Na4SiS4·0.0830SiO2 and Na4SiS4·0.200SiO2 glasses is one‐tenth that of the Na4SiS4 glass, suggesting increased chemical stability to humidity by incorporating oxygen in the structure. High‐sodium‐content oxythiosilicate glass with high ionic conductivity, high chemical stability against humidity, and high reduction stability is successfully prepared under ambient pressure without sealing and quenching processes.

Assessment of Physicochemical Properties of Orange Juice Concentrate Formulated with Pectin, Xanthan, and CMC Hydrocolloids.

Orange concentrate (OC) is one of the main raw materials in the nonalcoholic beverage industry. Considering the difference in orange varieties, preserving its natural quality is essential to yield a product with favorable attributes and physical stability. Thus, the present study is aimed at assessing the effect of pectin, xanthan, and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) in a concentration range of 0-0.2% (w/v) along with mixing temperature on Brix, pH, acidity, density, turbidity, and viscosity of OC and at calculating the model equation for each attribute. The results showed that, except for CMC, the influence of concentration, type, and amount of hydrocolloid on pH changes was insignificant. Adding each hydrocolloid individually, in pairs, or threes reduced the density, and the measured density was lower at a mixing temperature of 4°C. Also, it was observed that mixing temperature was the only factor influencing turbidity, and the values were significantly lower at 80°C compared to 4°C. A significant interaction effect of xanthan concentration and mixing temperature on the Brix was observed. Adding hydrocolloids, except pectin, resulted in a significant (p < 0.05) increase in viscosity, and xanthan had the greatest effect on the viscosity. A suitable model was designed using pectin and xanthan, pectin and CMC, and all three gums, resulting in a final OC product with high stability and improved physical and chemical attributes. The optimized values for Brix, pH, acidity, density, turbidity, and OC viscosity were achieved using 0.08% pectin, 0.19% xanthan, and 0.08% CMC at 80°C mixing temperature.

Targeting HIF-1α with Specific DNA Yokes for Effective Anticancer Therapy.

Hypoxia, a ubiquitous hallmark in cancer, underscores the significance of targeting HIF-1α, the principal transcriptional factor of hypoxic responses, for effective cancer therapy. Herein, DNA yokes, a novel class of DNA nanomaterials harboring specific HIF-1α binding sequences (hypoxia response elements, HREs), are introduced as nanopharmaceuticals for cancer treatment. Comprising a basal tetrahedral DNA nanostructure and four HRE-bearing overhanging chains, DNA yokes exhibit exceptional stability and prolonged intracellular retention. The investigation reveals their capacity to bind HIF-1α, thereby disrupting its interaction with the downstream genomic DNAs and impeding transcriptional activity. Moreover, DNA yokes facilitate HIF-1α degradation via the ubiquitination pathway, thereby sequestering it from downstream targets and ultimately promoting its degradation. In addition, DNA yokes attenuate cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion under hypoxic conditions, while also displaying preferential accumulation within tumors, thereby inhibiting tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. This study pioneers a novel approach to cancer therapy through the development of DNA-based drugs characterized by high stability and low toxicity to normal cells, positioning DNA yokes as promising candidates for cancer treatment.

Thermosensitive and mucoadhesive gels containing solid lipid nanoparticles loaded with fluconazole and niosomes loaded with clindamycin for the treatment of periodontal diseases: a laboratory experiment

BackgroundPeriodontal diseases may benefit more from topical treatments with nanoparticles rather than systemic treatments due to advantages such as higher stability and controlled release profile. This study investigated the preparation and characterization of thermosensitive gel formulations containing clindamycin-loaded niosomes and solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) loaded with fluconazole (FLZ), as well as their in vitro antibacterial and antifungal effects in the treatment of common microorganisms that cause periodontal diseases.MethodsThis study loaded niosomes and SLNs with clindamycin and FLZ, respectively, and assessed their loading efficiency, particle size, and zeta potential. The particles were characterized using a variety of methods such as differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). Thermosensitive gels were formulated by combining these particles and their viscosity, gelation temperature, in-vitro release profile, as well as antibacterial and antifungal effects were evaluated.ResultsBoth types of these nanoparticles were found to be spherical (TEM) with a mean particle size of 243.03 nm in niosomes and 171.97 nm in SLNs (DLS), and respective zeta potentials of -23.3 and -15. The loading rate was 98% in niosomes and 51% in SLNs. The release profiles of niosomal formulations were slower than those of the SLNs. Both formulations allowed the release of the drug by first-order kinetic. Additionally, the gel formulation presented a slower release of both drugs compared to niosomes and SLNs suspensions.ConclusionThermosensitive gels containing clindamycin-loaded niosomes and/or FLZ-SLNs were found to effectively fight the periodontitis-causing bacteria and fungi.

Graphene-intercalated P4Se3@CNF hybrid electrode for sustainable energy storage solution: Enabling high energy density and ultra-long cyclic stability

Non-metal-based compounds have emerged as promising electrodes in recent years to replace scarce and expensive transition-metals for energy storage applications. Herein, a simple electro-spinning technique followed by carbonization is used to create tetraphosphorus triselenide (P4Se3) nano-flakes encapsulated in carbon nanofiber (P4Se3@CNF) to obtain a binder-free, metal-free and flexible hybrid electrode with high electrical conductivity and cyclic stability. A remarkable capacitive performance (5.5-folds@P4Se3) of 810 F g-1/112.5 mAhg−1@0.9 A g-1 has been obtained using P4Se3@CNF electrode with an excellent rate capability compared to pristine (P4Se3) which is further supported by theoretical calculations via intercalating graphene within bare P4Se3 flakes inducing partial charge redistribution in hetero-structure. A flexible pouch-type hybrid-supercapacitor followed by coin-cell has been manufactured offering exceptional energy density without sacrificing power density and ultra-long durability over 35,000 and 1,00,000-cycles with capacitance-retention of 99.77 % and 100 %, respectively. It has been demonstrated that as-fabricated device has practical usefulness towards renewable energy harvesting and storage via integrating commercial solar cell module with supercapattery array that can enlighten the blue LED approximately for 31 min, rotate the homemade windmill device, power Arduino and glow “INST” against 2 min of charging. This work demonstrates a facile route towards the development of metal-free electrochemical renewable energy storage/transfer devices offering an inevitable adoption in industrial platforms.

Stable Organic Solar Cells Enabled by Simultaneous Hole and Electron Interlayer Engineering

The development of high‐performance organic solar cells (OSCs) with high operational stability is essential to accelerate their commercialization. Unfortunately, our understanding of the origin of instabilities in state‐of‐the‐art OSCs based on bulk heterojunction (BHJ) featuring non‐fullerene acceptors (NFAs) remains limited. Herein, we developed NFA‐based OSCs using different charge extraction interlayer materials and studied their storage, thermal, and operational stabilities. Despite the high power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the OSCs (17.54%), we found that cells featuring self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs) as hole‐extraction interlayers exhibited poor stability. The time required for these OSCs to reach 80% of their initial performance (T80) was only 6 h under continuous thermal stress at 85 °C in a nitrogen atmosphere and 1 h under maximum power point tracking (MPPT) in a vacuum. Inserting MoOx between ITO and SAM enhanced the T80 to 50 and ~15 h after the thermal and operational stability tests, respectively, while maintaining a PCE of 16.9%. Replacing the organic PDINN electron transport layer with ZnO NPs further enhances the cells' thermal and operational stability, boosting the T80 to 1000 and 170 h, respectively. Our work reveals the synergistic roles of charge‐selective interlayers and device architecture in developing efficient and stable OSCs.

Unconventional magnetism mediated by spin-phonon-photon coupling

Magnetic order typically emerges due to the short-range exchange interaction between the constituent electronic spins. Recent discoveries have found a crucial role for spin-phonon coupling in various phenomena from optical ultrafast magnetization switching to dynamical control of the magnetic state. Here, we demonstrate theoretically the emergence of a biquadratic long-range interaction between spins mediated by their coupling to phonons hybridized with vacuum photons into polaritons. The resulting ordered state enabled by the exchange of virtual polaritons between spins is reminiscent of superconductivity mediated by the exchange of virtual phonons. The biquadratic nature of the spin-spin interaction promotes ordering without favoring ferro- or antiferromagnetism. It further makes the phase transition to magnetic order a first-order transition, unlike in conventional magnets. Consequently, a large magnetization develops abruptly on lowering the temperature which could enable magnetic memories admitting ultralow-power thermally-assisted writing while maintaining a high data stability. The role of photons in the phenomenon further enables an in-situ static control over the magnetism. These unique features make our predicted spin-spin interaction and magnetism highly unconventional paving the way for novel scientific and technological opportunities.

Effects of alkyl polyglucoside on the self-assembly behavior and foam properties of the thermoresponsive triblock copolymer (EO)100(PO)65(EO)100

Thermoresponsive liquid foams stabilized with the triblock copolymer (EO)100(PO)65(EO)100 (PF127) have been proved to be effective in suppressing pool fire. Understanding how the low-molecular-weight surfactants affect the properties of thermoresponsive foam stabilized by PF127 is important in the development of fluorine-free firefighting foam. In this work, the effects of the non-ionic surfactant alkyl polyglucoside (APG) on the properties of the foam stabilized by the triblock copolymer PF127 were studied. The relationships among molecular self-assembly, interfacial properties, and foam properties were investigated by conducting scattering experiments and foam aging tests. The results demonstrated that the APG molecules participated in the organization of the mixed micelles with PF127 molecules and the competition of both components in the mixed micelles affected the foaming properties. For the systems containing APG and 20 wt% PF127, APG acted as a foam inhibitor, suppressing foam generation at low concentrations. In contrast, APG acted as the foam booster at high concentrations since the mixed micelles were relatively unstable, allowing more unimers to diffuse to the interfacial region. In the absence of APG, the liquid foam from PF127 exhibited high stability and elasticity under heat due to the ordered structure formed by PF127 micelles inside the foam. As the APG concentration increased, the transition of orderly packed PF127-rich mixed micelles into disordered APG-rich mixed micelles caused the originally inhibited liquid drainage to restart rapidly, making the foams unstable upon heating. The results of this work can give theoretical guidance for the development of thermoresponsive firefighting foams.

A promising strontium and cobalt-free Ba1-xCaxFeO3-δ air electrode for reversible protonic ceramic cells

The air electrode with strontium and cobalt elements has the elemental diffusion or delamination issue on the air electrode/electrolyte interface in reversible protonic ceramic cells (RPCCs). Hence the development of strontium and cobalt-free triple conducting (H+/O2-/e-) air electrodes with high electrochemical activity and stability is urgent. Here, we report a strontium and cobalt-free Ba0.8Ca0.2FeO3-δ (BCF82) air electrode with high catalytic activity and electrochemical stability for oxygen reduction/evolution reactions. A RPCC with the BCF82 air electrode shows a high peak power density of 1.14 W cm−2 in the fuel cell mode and a current density of 3.49 A cm−2 under 1.3 V in the electrolysis mode at 700 °C. Furthermore, the cell demonstrates suitable stability in the fuel cell, electrolysis and reversible modes at 600 °C for hundreds of hours without elemental segregation and delamination issue. This work offers an efficient approach to develop low-cost and durable air electrodes for RPCCs.

Highly Conjugated Nanozyme with Non Coordination Saturation for Cascaded Enhanced POD Reaction Driving Antibacterial Therapy

AbstractThe misuse of antibiotics leads to emergence of drug‐resistant bacteria. Developing artificial nanozymes with high stability and excellent catalytic performance is desirable to substitute for antibiotics, but still remains huge challenge. Herein, the study reports a new strategy for cascaded enhanced peroxidase (POD) reaction driving antibacterial therapy via constructing 2D conjugated metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) with non coordination saturation as nanozyme. It is demonstrated that the non coordination saturation Cu atom promotes the adsorption of H2O2, followed by the Cu‐HHTP MOFs with high conjugated structure can enhance the photogenerated electron transfer for ·OH generation in POD reaction. The sequential enhancement of substrate adsorption and decomposition endows the as‐made Cu‐HHTP MOFs with outstanding antibacterial property of &gt;99.9999% elimination with a concentration only 1/133 that of traditional nanozyme. In addition, the study also certifies its excellent in vivo antimicrobial activity and biocompatibility, indicating the therapeutic potential for infections by drug‐resistant bacteria.
