Ionic liquid-assisted synthesis of N, F, and B co-doped BiOBr/BiSe on MoCT for enhanced performance in hydrogen evolution reaction and supercapacitors.

Heteroatom doping and heterojunction formation are effective strategies to enhance electrochemical performance. In this study, we present a novel approach that utilizes an ionic liquid-assisted synthesis method to fabricate a BiOBr-based material, which is subsequently loaded onto MoCT via a selenization treatment to create a BiOBr/BiSe heterostructure, denoted as NBF-BiOBr/BiSe/MoCT. The incorporation of heteroatoms improves its hydrophilicity and electronegativity, while the formation of heterojunctions adjusts the electronic structure at the interface, resulting in lower OH/H adsorption energy.

Ionic Liquid Meets MOF: A Facile Method to Optimize the Structure of CoSe2-NiSe2 Heterojunctions with N, P, and F Triple-Doped Carbon Using Ionic Liquid for Efficient Hydrogen Evolution and Flexible Supercapacitors.

The rational design of catalysts' spatial structure is vitally important to boost catalytic performance by exposing the active sites and increasing specific surface area. Herein, the heteroatom doping and morphology of CoNi metal-organic frameworks(MOF) are modulated by controlling the volume of ionic liquid used in synthesis and generating CoSe -NiSe heterojunction structures wrapped by N, P, F tri-doped carbon(NPFC) after a selenisation process. Notably, the unique cubic porous structure of CoSe -NiSe /NPFC results in a specific surface five times that of the sheet-like hollow structure produced without ionic liquid.

Trimodal hierarchical porous carbon nanorods enable high-performance Na-Se batteries.

Technical bottlenecks of polyselenide shuttling and material volume variation significantly hamper the development of emerging sodium-selenium (Na-Se) batteries. The nanopore structure of substrate materials is demonstrated to play a vital role in stabilizing Se cathodes and approaching superior Na-ion storage properties. Herein, an ideal nanorod-like trimodal hierarchical porous carbon (THPC) host is fabricated through a facile one-step carbonization method for advanced Na-Se batteries.

A Nanozyme-Immobilized Hydrogel with Endogenous ROS-Scavenging and Oxygen Generation Abilities for Significantly Promoting Oxidative Diabetic Wound Healing.

Non-healing wound is a common complication of diabetic patients associated with high morbidity and mortality. Engineered therapeutic hydrogels have enviable advantages in tissue regeneration, however, they are suboptimal for the healing of diabetic wounds characterized by reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and chronic hypoxia. Here, a unique biological metabolism-inspired hydrogel, for ameliorating this hostile diabetic microenvironment, is presented.

MOF-Derived Hybrid Hollow Submicrospheres of Nitrogen-Doped Carbon-Encapsulated Bimetallic Ni-Co-S Nanoparticles for Supercapacitors and Lithium Ion Batteries.

The development of bimetallic transition-metal sulfide and nitrogen-doped carbon composites with unique hollow structure is highly desirable for energy storage applications but is also challenging. In the present work, we demonstrate a facile metal-organic framework engaged strategy for synthesizing bimetallic nickel cobalt sulfide and nitrogen-doped carbon composites with hollow spherical structure (denoted as hollow Ni-Co-S- n/NC composites) and a Ni/Co molar ratio ( n value) that can be easily controlled. When evaluated as electrode materials for both supercapacitors and lithium ion batteries, it is found that the hollow Ni-Co-S-0.
