Designing efficient Ruthenium-based catalysts as practical anodes is of critical importance in proton exchange membrane water electrolysis. Here, we develop a self-assembly technique to synthesize 1 nm-thick rutile-structured high-entropy oxides (RuIrFeCoCrO) from naked metal ions assembly and oxidation at air-molten salt interface. The RuIrFeCoCrO requires an overpotential of 185 mV at 10 m A cm and maintains the high activity for over 1000 h in an acidic electrolyte via the adsorption evolution mechanism.

Open metal sites are crucial in catalysis. We have used a "loose coordination strategy" (LCS) to preorganize open metal sites in gold cluster catalysts. A gold nanocluster with composition of [Au26(3,4-Me2-Ph-form)9(iPr2-imy)3(Me2S)](BF4)2(iPr2-imy = 1,3-Diisopropylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, 3,4-Me2-Ph-form = N,N'-Di(3,4-dimethyl-phenyl)formamidine) (Au26) has been obtained by one pot synthesis, i.

Exploration of new superconducting or superhard transition-metal borides has attracted extensive interest in the past few decades. In this study, we conducted comprehensive theoretical investigations in the scandium-boron binary system by employing a structural search method based upon first-principles density functional theory. Among the six predicted superconducting scandium-borides, ScB (3̄) has the highest superconducting transition temperature = 12.

Closed-loop transformation of raw materials into high-value-added products is highly desired for the sustainable development of the society but is seldom achieved. Here, a low-cost, solvent-free and "zero-waste" mechanochemical protocol is reported for the large-scale preparation of cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). This process ensures full utilization of raw materials, effectively reduces water consumption, and simplifies the operating process.

Superconductivity in infinite-layer nickelates has stirred much research interest, to which questions regarding the nature of superconductivity remain elusive. A critical leap forward to address these intricate questions is through the growth of high-crystallinity infinite-layer nickelates, including the "parent" phase. Here, we report the synthesis of a high-quality thin-film nickelate, NdNiO.
