The widespread use of pesticides in agriculture poses food safety and environmental risks, highlighting the need for rapid detection techniques to mitigate contamination. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) coupled with machine learning provides a powerful approach for the detection and quantification of multiple pesticides in agricultural products. This study introduces the SERSFormer-2.

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) battery is a potential next-generation energy storage technology over lithium-ion batteries for high capacity, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly solutions. However, several issues including polysulfides shuttle, low conductivity and limited rate-capability have hampered its practical application. Herein, a new class of cathode active material with perfect core-shell structure is reported, in which sulfur is fully encapsulated by conductivity-enhancing FeS (named as S@FeS), for high-rate application.

The unique design of the core-shell heterostructure is significant for obtaining electrode materials with excellent electrochemical properties. In this paper, porous carbon nanofibers (NPC@PPZ) embedded with N-doped porous carbon nanoparticles are used to construct flexible electrodes (NPC@PPZ@BiO). Zeolite imidazole skeleton (ZIF)-8 and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) derived porous carbon fibers and BiO nanosheets, were utilized as the porous core and multilayer shell, respectively.

In a recent paper (ChemPhysChem, 2023, 24, e202200947), based on the results computed using DFT method, the perfect core-shell octahedral configuration Be@B and Zn@B was reported to be the global minima of the MB(M=Be and Zn) clusters. However, this paper presents the lower energy structures of MB(M=Be and Zn) clusters as a quasi-planar configuration, the Be atom is found to reside on the convex surface of the quasi-planar B isomer, while the Zn atom tends to be attached to the top three B atoms of the quasi-planar B isomer. Our results show that quasi-planar MB(M=Be and Zn) at DFT method have lower energy than core-shell octahedral configuration M@B(M=Be and Zn).

This work highlights the novel approach of incorporating potassium iodide (KI) doping during the synthesis of InP core quantum dots (QDs) to significantly reduce the concentration of vacancies (i.e., In vacancies; ) within the bulk of the core QD and inhibit the formation of InPO at the core QD-ZnSe shell interfaces.
