Decomposition mechanisms in metal borohydrides and their ammoniates
, 2017 Ammoniation in metal borohydrides (MBs) with the form $\mathcal{M}$(BH$_4$)$_x$ has been shown to lower their decomposition temperatures with $\mathcal{M}$ of low electronegativity ($\chi_p \lesssim 1.6$), but raise it for high-$\chi_p$ MBs ($\chi_p ...

Boosting Photo‐Pyroelectric Effect via Tunable Polarization and Interfacial Defect Engineering
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study reports Ba(Ti0.85Zr0.15)O3 nanocatalysts with enhanced polarization and oxygen‐vacancy‐rich interfaces for efficient NIR‐II photo‐pyroelectric therapy. Zr doping boosts the pyroelectric coefficient and accelerates polarization switching, while oxygen vacancies improve photothermal conversion and surface reactivity.
