The electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are the most critical processes in renewable energy-related technologies, such as fuel cells, water electrolyzers, and unitized regenerative fuel cells. N-doped c...

We examine the performance of a finite-time, endoreversible Otto heat engine with a working medium of monolayer or multilayered graphene subjected to an external magnetic field. As the energy spectrum of multilayer graphene under an external magnetic...

Hydrogen evolution reaction and dendrite growth seriously break the Zn plating/stripping process at the electrolyte/electrode interface, causing the instability of the Zn anode of aqueous zinc ion batteries. To improve the Zn anode stability and reve...

The applications of three-dimensional materials combined with two-dimensional materials are attractive for constructing high-performance electronic and photoelectronic devices because of their remarkable electronic and optical properties. However, tr...

The charging of nanoporous carbon via electrodeposition of solid iodine from iodide-based electrolyte is an efficient and ecofriendly method to produce battery cathodes. Here, the interactions at the carbon/iodine interface from first contact with th...

The design of Pt-based electrocatalysts with high efficiency towards acid oxygen reduction reactions is the priority to promote the development and application of proton exchange membrane fuel cells. Considering that the Pt atoms on the surfaces of t...

Conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs) are a promising class of nanomaterials for biomedical applications, such as bioimaging, gene and drug delivery/release, photodynamic therapy (PDT), photothermal therapy (PTT), and environmental sensing. Over th...

Infrared single-pixel sensing with the two most representative modes, bright-field imaging and edge-enhanced imaging, has great application potential in biomedical diagnosis and defect inspection. Building a multifunctional and miniature optical comp...

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive primary malignant tumor of the brain. Although there are currently a wide variety of therapeutic approaches focused on tumor elimination, such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and tumor field therapy...

The superior optical properties of lead-halide perovskites (LHPs) inspired significant research in cell imaging applications; many encapsulating processes have improved perovskite stabilities with comparable biosafety. Herein, facile solvent evaporat...
