Rational Design of Bimetallic MOF‐Derived Cu/Co@N‐C Nanocubes for Ultrasensitive Electrochemical Nitrite Detection

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT A facile coprecipitation‐pyrolysis strategy was employed to fabricate Cu/Co nanoparticles (NPs) embedded in nitrogen‐doped carbon matrices (Cu/Co@N‐C) through the carbonization of CuCo‐MOF precursors. Moreover, monometallic counterparts of Cu@N‐C and Co@N‐C were also prepared via carbonization of bimetallic CuZn‐MOF and CoZn‐MOF, respectively.

MoS2‐Modified Bamboo‐Like Nitrogen‐Doped Carbon Nanotubes Encapsulating Ni Nanoparticles Enabling Synergistic Adsorption–Catalysis for High‐Performance Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The commercialization of lithium–sulfur batteries (Li–S batteries) has been hindered by the shuttle effect of lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) and sluggish redox kinetics. In this study, we constructed a three‐dimensional hollow conductive network host material for sulfur with synergistic enhancement effects.

Defect Engineering of Carbon Frameworks Driven All‐Slope Hard Carbon Anodes for Fast‐Charging Sodium‐Ion Batteries

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Fast‐charging capability is one of the crucial factors determining the application prospects of sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs). Nevertheless, the mismatched sodium storage kinetics and Coulombic efficiency (CE) in hard carbon anodes are bottlenecks in the implementation of fast‐charging SIBs. Herein, we propose a facile pre‐carbonization strategy

Multifunctional Integration in a Monolithic Biomass Carbon: A Triple‐Synergistic Host for Advanced Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries are promising for next‐generation high‐energy‐storage systems but are hindered by polysulfide shuttle, sluggish kinetics, and volume expansion. Conventional carbon hosts struggle to simultaneously anchor and convert polysulfides efficiently.

Synergetic Ruthenium Clusters and Ligand Motifs in Insoluble Polyoxometalates for Efficient Urea Electrosynthesis

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The electrocatalytic co‐reduction of CO2 and nitrate (NO3− ${\text{NO}}_{3}^{-}$) to synthesize urea presents a sustainable alternative to traditional industrial processes, yet its efficiency is fundamentally limited by the kinetically mismatched activation and coupling of CO2 and NO3− ${\text{NO}}_{3}^{-}$.

Copper Slag‐Derived Cu3Fe17@C Alloy Enabling Efficient Peroxymonosulfate Activation for Levofloxacin Degradation via Cu‐Mediated Electron Transfer With Suppressed Metal Leaching

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Although alloy‐based materials present potential for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation, metal ion leaching remains severely restricted during the pollution degradation process. Herein, the porous carbon‐supported Fe–Cu alloy derived from industrial copper slag was prepared to remove the organic pollutants from wastewater while inhibiting the ...

Organ‐specific ozone and nitrogen legacies strengthen substrate control over litter decomposition

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2548-2559, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Elevated tropospheric ozone (O3) and nitrogen (N) deposition are concurrent atmospheric changes that strongly influence terrestrial carbon cycling, yet their combined effects on below‐ground decomposition remain poorly understood.

紫色土丘陵区坡面土壤有机碳含量及储量分布特征

Shuitu Baochi Xuebao, 2017
为探明坡耕地土壤有机碳空间分布特征，对紫色土丘陵区坡耕地不同部位土壤有机碳及活性有机碳顺坡和深度分布进行分析。结果表明，坡耕地上坡土层深度仅为22.3 cm，中坡和下坡土层深度约为上坡的2.01倍和3.30倍；与上坡比较，中坡和下坡土壤容重下降了0.2和0.04，土壤孔隙度增加了19.82%与3.83%。沿坡从上向下土壤有机碳及活性有机碳储量显著增加，下坡土壤有机碳及活性有机碳储量比上坡和中坡分别增加了674.74%，104.09%和958.51%，267.75 ...
