Here, we reported a highly efficient nitrate electroreduction (NORR) electrocatalyst that integrated alloying and heterostructuring strategies comprising FeCo alloy and MoN (FeCo-MoN/NC). Notably, the maximum NH Faraday efficiency (FE) of 83.24%, NH yield of 12.28 mg h mg, and good stability were achieved over FeCo-MoN/NC. Moreover, a Zn-NO battery assembled with FeCo-MoN/NC exhibited a power density of 0.87 mW cm, an NH yield of 14.09 mg h mg, and a FE as high as 76.31%.

Constructing wide and narrow band gap heterogeneous semiconductors is a method to improve the activity of photocatalysts. In this paper, CMS/ZnO heterojunctions were prepared by solvothermal loading of ZnO particles on the surface of CuMoS nanosheets. The photocatalytic H precipitation rate is about 545 μmol·g·h, which is 6.

The photocatalytic activity of lead-free perovskite heterostructures currently suffers from low efficiency due to the lack of active sites and the inadequate photogenerated carrier separation, the latter of which is hindered by slow charge transfer at the heterostructure interfaces. Herein, a facile strategy is reported for the construction of lead-free halide-perovskite-based heterostructure with swift interfacial charge transfer, achieved through direct partial conversion of 2D antimony oxybromide SbOBr to generate CsSbBr/SbOBr heterostructure. Compared to the traditional electrostatic self-assembly method, this approach endows the CsSbBr/SbOBr heterostructure with a tightly interconnected interface through in situ partial conversion, significantly accelerating interfacial charge transfer and thereby enhancing the separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers.

Constructing van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs) has emerged as an attractive strategy to combine and enhance the optoelectronic properties of stacked materials. Herein, by means of first-principles calculations, we investigate the geometric and electronic structures of the AlP/CsBiICl vdWH as well as its tunable band structure an external electric field. The AlP/CsBiICl vdWH is structurally and thermodynamically stable due to the low binding energy and the small energy fluctuation at room temperature.

Vanadium-based oxides have garnered significant attention for aqueous zinc batteries (AZBs), whereas sluggish Zn diffusion and structural collapse remain major challenges in achieving high-performance cathodes. Herein, different structures of iron-vanadium oxides were fabricated by modulating the amount of vanadium content. It is found that the porous Mott-Schottky heterojunction composed of FeVO and FeVO mixed phase was used to construct a self-generated FeVO-5 structure, which could lower the diffusion barrier and improve the electron transport derived from the formed built-in electric field at the interface, showing faster reaction kinetics and improved capacity compared with the singe-phase FeVO-1.
