Synergizing Multi‐Chemisorption Sites and Micropore Confinement in Porous Carbon for High‐Performance Zinc‐Ion Hybrid Capacitors

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aqueous zinc‐ion hybrid capacitors (ZICs) bridge the gap between high‐energy batteries and high‐power supercapacitors, yet their performance is fundamentally bottlenecked by the micropore confinement effect in carbon cathodes, which restricts hydrated Zn2+ transport and active site utilization.

Dual‐Metal Co‐Doping Strategy Enhances the Hydrogen Dissociation and Hydrogen Release Performance of LiBH4 Assisted by Ensemble Learning

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT LiBH4 has drawn significant attention due to its high theoretical hydrogen storage capacity of 18.5 wt%, yet its practical application is hindered by the harsh dehydrogenation conditions. This paper proposes a strategy integrating ensemble learning with density functional theory (EL–DFT) for rapidly screening modified LiBH4 systems that ...

Synergistic Activation of the Inert (001) Facet in Janus ZnIn2S4 Through Co 3d and P 3p Orbital Hybridization for Superior Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The Janus structure of ZnIn2S4 (ZIS) endows it with an intrinsic built‐in electric field that effectively drives photogenerated charge separation. However, this very structure also renders the predominant (001) facet (In–S termination) catalytically inert due to its low electron density and high energy barrier for the hydrogen evolution ...

High‐Value Targeted Conversion of Copper Slag as LiFePO4 Material for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The massive stockpiling of copper slag (CS) presents severe environmental and resource‐waste challenges. Existing strategies for CS valorization typically yield low‐value‐added products. Herein, we propose an innovative hierarchical regulation approach to transform CS into high‐performance LiFePO4 (LFP) cathode materials.

An Environmental‐Friendly and Sustainable Ramie‐Derived Co/N‐Doped Carbon With Dual Function for Synergistic Polysulfide Regulation in Li‐S Batteries

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The dual challenges of environmental sustainability and rising energy needs underscore the necessity for high‐energy‐density batteries, making lithium–sulfur (LSB) systems with their high theoretical capacity highly attractive. However, the polysulfide shuttle, coupled with inherent kinetic limitations in the sulfur reduction reaction ...

Ionic‐Liquid‐Assisted Synthesis of NiTe/CoTe Heterostructure With Te Vacancies in N, P, and F Co‐Doped Hollow Carbon Nanorods for Efficient Alkaline Hydrogen Evolution and High‐Performance Flexible Supercapacitors

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Low conductivity, slow ion‐diffusion, and limited reactive sites are common problems in electrocatalysts and electrode materials. In this study, a complex NiTe–CoTe heterojunction with abundant Te vacancies embedded in N, P, and F co‐doped hollow carbon nanorods (NiTe1−x–CoTe1−x/NPFC) was fabricated via a simple ionic liquid‐assisted ...

Acid‐Etched Co‐Vacancy‐Tunable CoFeP/N,P‐Codoped Carbon Nanocages for Highly Efficient Alkaline Water Electrolysis

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Efficient and durable bifunctional electrocatalysts are vital for scalable water electrolysis. Here, we realize cobalt‐vacancy (Covac) engineering in CoFeP supported on N,P‐codoped carbon nanocages (Co1‐vacFeP/NPC) through a simple route comprising a CoFe Prussian blue analog precursor, phosphidation–pyrolysis, tannic‐acid etching, and a ...

Ultrafast Catalytic Decomposition Reaction Using a ZIF‐67@Cellulose Nanofiber Composite‐Based Cobalt/ Nitrogen Co‐Doped Nanoporous Carbon for Water Treatment

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Recently, cobalt/nitrogen co‐doped materials have emerged as heterogeneous catalysts to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and have been applied to advanced oxidation processes for environmental remediation. However, their recyclability and reusability remain major barriers to practical application.

Fabrication‐Driven Oxidation Pathways in Y/Hf‐Modified High‐Entropy Alloys: From Elemental Segregation to Oxide Homogeneity

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT This study elucidates the oxidation mechanisms governing Y/Hf‐doped AlCoCrFeNiTi high‐entropy alloys (HEAs) and reveals the pivotal role of fabrication processes in dictating high‐temperature oxidation behavior. We demonstrate that casting and spark plasma sintering (SPS) promote Y/Hf segregation, resulting in heterogeneous oxide formation and
