Designing efficient electrode materials is necessary for supercapacitors but remains highly challenging. Herein, cobalt sulfide with crystalline/amorphous heterophase (denoted as Co(Al)S) derived from an Al metal-organic framework was constructed by ion exchange/acid etching and subsequent sulfidation strategy. It was found that rational sulfidation by adjusting the sulfur source concentration to a suitable level was favorable to form a 3D nanosheet-interconnected network architecture with a large specific surface area, which promoted ion/electron transport and charge separation. Benefiting from the features of the unique network structure and heterophase accompanied by aluminum, nitrogen and carbon coordinated in amorphous phase, the optimal Co(Al)S exhibited a high specific capacity (1791.8 C g at 1 A g), an outstanding rate capability and an excellent cycling stability. Furthermore, the as-assembled Co(Al)S//AC device afforded an energy density of 72.3 Wh kg at a power density of 750 W kg, verifying that the Co(Al)S was a promising material for energy storage devices. The developed scheme is expected to promote the application of MOF-derived electrode materials in electrochemical energy storage and conversion fields.

Introduction: Exploring the interactions between dark septate endophytes (DSE) in plant roots across diverse heavy metal habitats-considering host plants, site characteristics, and microbial communities-provides insights into the distribution patterns of DSE in metal-rich environments and their mechanisms for developing heavy metal resistance.

Methods: This study collected samples of three common plant species (, PA, , SV, and , AA) and their corresponding soil samples from three heavy metal-contaminated sites: Baiyang Lake, BY, Fengfeng mining area, FF, and Huangdao, HD. Utilizing high-throughput sequencing and physicochemical analysis methods, the biological and abiotic factors affecting DSE colonization and distribution in the roots were investigated.

Nanoporous solids offer a wide range of functionalities for industrial, environmental, and energy applications. However, only a limited number of porous materials are responsive, the nanopore dynamically alters its size and shape in response to external stimuli such as temperature, pressure, light or the presence of specific molecular stimuli adsorbed inside the voids deforming the framework. Adsorption-induced structural deformation of porous solids can result in unique counterintuitive phenomena.

Investigating the impact of heteroatom alloying extents on regulating the cluster structures is crucial for the fabrication of cluster-based nanomaterials with customized properties. Herein, two structurally comparable PdAu ( = 1, 2) nanoclusters with a uniform surface environment but completely distinct kernel configurations were controllably synthesized and structurally determined. The single Pd-alloyed Pd1Au12 nanocluster retained an icosahedral metal framework, while the Pd2Au12 nanocluster with two Pd heteroatoms exhibited a unique toroidal configuration.

Metal-free photocatalysts derived from earth-abundant elements have drawn significant attention owing to their ample supply for potential large-scale applications. However, it is still challenging to achieve highly efficient photocatalytic performance owing to their sluggish charge separation and lack of active catalytic sites. Herein, we designed and constructed a series of covalently bonded organic semiconductors to enhance water splitting and phenol degradation.
