A FeO hybrid material (FeO@SiO-S) modified by Schiff-base was prepared by grafting methyl acrylate (MA), ethylenediamine (EDA), and salicylaldehyde (SA) to the prepared magnetic hybrid material (FeO@SiO-NH) successively; what's more, the structure was characterized by FTIR, XRD, SEM, TEM, and VSM. The results showed that the FeO@SiO-S has an obvious core-shell structure and a saturation magnetization of 45.9 emu/g. Study on the adsorption of aqueous heavy metal ions showed that FeO@SiO-S posed selective adsorption for Hg with the saturated adsorption capacity of 362 mg/g (1.12 mmol/g), which was superior to FeO@SiO-NH, FeO@SiO-HO-S, and other adsorbents, at the condition of pH = 6, 45℃, the adsorption capacity remained 89% after 5 cycles of adsorption-desorption; what is more, adsorption equilibrium was reached at about 300 min, and the adsorption isotherm conformed to the Langmuir isotherm adsorption model; in addition, pseudo-second-order model could be well described the adsorption kinetic process of FeO@SiO-S to Hg. The adsorption mechanism demonstrated that the N atoms of Schiff-base were mainly contributed to the adsorption of Hg; what is more, the N atom of tertiary amine and the O atoms of hydroxy and carbonyl also help to the adsorption of Hg.

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) offer several advantages over traditional lithium-ion batteries, including a more uniform sodium distribution, lower-cost materials, and safer transportation options. A promising development in SIBs is the use of hard carbons as anode materials due to their low insertion voltage and larger interlayer spacing, which improve sodium-ion insertion. Traditionally, hard carbons are made from costly carbon sources, but recent advancements have focussed on using abundant bio-waste, like coffee grounds.

Organic-inorganic hybrid ferroelectric compounds of the halobismuthate family have emerged as a focal point of research owing to their reduced toxicity and distinctive optical characteristics. This study presents a novel ammonium hybrid perovskite, [BPMBDMA]·[Bi2Br9], which exhibits both ferro- and piezoelectric properties and crystallizes in the polar noncentrosymmetric 2 space group. The nonlinear optical (NLO) activity of [BPMBDMA]·[Bi2Br9] was corroborated through second harmonic generation measurements evidencing its noncentrosymmetric structure, which was further substantiated by piezoresponse force microscopy analyses.

Chemotherapy is a crucial cancer treatment, but its effectiveness requires precise monitoring of drug concentrations in patients. This study introduces an innovative electrochemical strip sensor design to detect and continuously monitor methotrexate (MTX), a key chemotherapeutic drug. The sensor is crafted through an eco-friendly synthesis process that produces porous reduced graphene oxide (PrGO), which is then integrated with gold nanocomposites and polypyrrole (PPy) to boost the performance of a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE).

Metal halide perovskites and their derivatives are gaining significant attention as photoluminescent materials due to their exceptional light-emitting properties. However, most research has concentrated on electroluminescence and photoluminescence, there remains a substantial gap in the exploration of mechanoluminescence (ML) properties in perovskites, making this field largely uncharted. ML is an ancient and intriguing luminescent phenomenon that occurs when a material is subjected to mechanical forces.

Metal tellurides, known for their superior electrical conductivity and excellent electrochemical properties, are promising candidates for supercapacitor applications. This study introduces a novel method involving a metal-organic framework hybrid to synthesize CoTe@CoFeTe double-shelled nanocubes. Initially, zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF67) and CoFe Prussian blue analog (PBA) nanocubes are synthesized through an anion-exchange reaction with [Fe(CN)] ions.
