In this study, a distinctive multiple core-shell structure of Co nanoparticles inserted into N-doped carbon dodecahedron@Co hydroxide (Co/NCD@Co(OH)) was synthesized a spontaneous redox reaction between metallic Co and NO, ultimately materializing the fine dispersion and exposure of the active sites. The electronic interaction existing between the Co/NCD core and the Co(OH) shell brings a synergistic effect, conspicuously lessens the overpotential, and reinforces the yield-rate and faradaic efficiency of NH for electrochemical nitrate-ammonia conversion. This study underlines the spontaneous redox between the catalysts and substrate, rendering it as a synthetic strategy for designing genuine and well-dispersed active sites.

By virtue of being atomically thin, the electronic properties of heterostructures built from two-dimensional materials are strongly influenced by atomic relaxation. The atomic layers behave as flexible membranes rather than rigid crystals. Here we develop an analytical theory of lattice relaxation in twisted moiré materials.

Electrochemical water splitting is a promising method for generating green hydrogen gas, offering a sustainable approach to addressing global energy challenges. However, the sluggish kinetics of the anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) poses a great obstacle to its practical application. Recently, increasing attention has been focused on introducing various external stimuli to modify the OER process.

Efficient and stable nonprecious metal-based oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts are pivotal for water electrolysis technology. Herein, we are reporting an effective strategy for fabricating efficient Co-based OER electrocatalysts by low-level Fe doping in CoMoO to boost surface reconstruction and electronic modulation, which resulted in excellent OER electroactivity consequently. Our findings reveal that a mere 5.

An accurate potential energy model, explicitly designed for studying scattering and treating the spin-orbit and nonadiabatic couplings on an equal footing, is proposed for the S + Ar system. The model is based on the Effective Relativistic Coupling by Asymptotic Representation (ERCAR) approach, building the geometry dependence of the spin-orbit interaction a diabatisation scheme. The resulting full diabatic model is used in close-coupling calculations to compute inelastic scattering cross sections for de-excitation from the S(D) fine structure level into the P multiplet.
