Herein, a novel liquid nitrogen quenching treatment is proposed to achieve multifaceted modulation involving morphological modulation, lattice tensile strain modulation, metal active centre coordination reconstruction and grain boundary construction within a series of intermetallic compounds modified on a carbon substrate (CoFe-550/C, CoNi-550/C and FeNi-550/C, where 550 refers to liquid nitrogen quenching temperature and C refers to the carbon substrate). Noteworthily, the optimising intermediate absorption/desorption process is achieved by multifaceted modulation. Consequently, CoFe-550/C, CoNi-550/C and FeNi-550/C demonstrate considerable overpotential for hydrogen evolution reaction (59.

Interfacial engineering is considered an effective strategy to improve the electrochemical water-splitting activity of catalysts by modulating the local electronic structure to expose more active sites. Therefore, we report a platinum-cobaltic oxide nanosheets (Pt/CoO NSs) with plentiful grain boundary as the efficient bifunctional electrocatalyst for water splitting. The Pt/CoO NSs exhibit a low overpotential of 55 and 201 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm for the hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction in 1.

Ruthenium oxide (RuO) is considered one of the most promising catalysts for replacing iridium oxide (IrO) in the acidic oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Nevertheless, the performance of RuO remains unacceptable due to the dissolution of Ru and the lack of *OH in acidic environments. This paper reports a grain boundary (GB)-rich porous RuO electrocatalyst for the efficient and stable acidic OER.

NiO is a wide-bandgap p-type metal oxide that has extensive applications in optoelectronics and photocatalysts. Understanding the carrier dynamics in p-type NiO is pivotal for optimizing device performance, yet they remain largely unexplored. In this study, we employed femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy to delve into the dynamics of photogenerated carriers in NiO films containing distinct prominent native defects: undoped NiO with oxygen vacancies () and O-rich NiO (denoted as NiO) with nickel vacancies ().
