Making use of synergy and introducing defects can effectively regulate the electronic structure of carbon nanomaterials, which is of great importance for achieving desired electrochemical performance. Herein, we report a facile protocol for preparing S, N-doped graphene with simultaneous ferroferric oxide functionalization (Fe3O4-SNG), which is the...

The atomic layer deposition (ALD) of yttrium oxide (Y2O3) is investigated using the liquid precursor Y(EtCp)2(iPr-amd) as the yttrium source with thermal (H2O) and plasma-enhanced (H2O plasma and O2 plasma) processes, respectively. Saturation is confirmed for the growth of the Y2O3 films with each investigated reactant with a similar ALD window fro...
Mixed ionic–electronic conductors (MIECs) that display high oxide ion conductivity (σo) and electronic conductivity (σe) constitute an important family of electrocatalysts for a variety of applications including fuel cells and oxygen separation membranes. Often MIECs exhibit sufficient σe but inadequate σo. It has been a long‐standing challenge to ...

Atomically dispersed Fe immobilized within N-doped carbon nanosheets (Fe-SA) is successfully synthesized. The optimal Fe-SA catalyst achieves a high faradaic efficiency of ca. 90% for CO2 electroreduction toward CO at a low overpotential of 0.47 V. A series of controlled tests show that there is a synergistic effect between the Fe centers and the p...

Membranes with fast and selective ion transport are widely used for water purification and devices for energy conversion and storage including fuel cells, redox flow batteries and electrochemical reactors. However, it remains challenging to design cost-effective, easily processed ion-conductive membranes with well-defined pore architectures. Here, ...
Chemical looping methane reforming (CLMR) is a promising technology for syngas generation by designing an oxygen carrier to partially oxidize methane into mixed gases with expected H-2/CO ratio. The major challenge is the development of oxygen carriers with high reactivity, good selectivity, and excellent recyclability. We investigated a novel inte...
