Environmental Stability and Electronic Properties of Individual Flakes of Ti2CTx MXene

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
The paper presents a synthesis of large Ti2CTx MXene flakes with sizes reaching 40 µm and examines their environmental stability and electronic behavior. It demonstrates that monolayer flakes degrade rapidly in ambient conditions, leading to semiconducting‐like behavior with low conductivity and mobility. In contrast, multilayer flakes exhibit enhanced

Shedding Light on Common Misinterpretations in Photocatalyst Characterization

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
For heterogeneous semiconductor‐based photocatalysts, Marschall et al. highlight common misconceptions in material synthesis, characterization, and performance evaluation, together with detailed explanations on how to avoid them. The guidelines thus presented can help to improve reporting of photocatalyst performance in environmental applications, such

Decoding Short‐Range Order in Amorphous Two‐Dimensional Nanosheets for Efficient and Durable Ampere‐Level Seawater Electrolysis: A Case Study of Amorphous Ni(OH)2

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This work uncovers the atomic‐scale origins of exceptional HER performance in amorphous Ni(OH)2 nanosheets by combining atom probe tomography, DFT simulations, and operando spectroscopy. We identify distinct short‐range‐order motifs that accelerate water dissociation, proton transport, and hydrogen adsorption. Embedding Pt single atoms further enhances

Comparative Insights and Overlooked Factors of Interphase Chemistry in Alkali Metal‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This review presents a comparative analysis of Li‐, Na‐, and K‐ion batteries, focusing on the critical role of electrode–electrolyte interphases. It especially highlights overlooked aspects such as SEI/CEI misconceptions, binder effects, and self‐discharge relevance, emphasizing the limitations of current understanding and offering strategies for ...

Deep Sea Mining vs. Underwater Cultural Heritage

This chapter seeks to provide an overview of the legal framework surrounding the protection of UCH as a part of the Marine Environment within the context of Law of the Sea, focusing particularly on the rules regarding deep sea mining. The text seeks to analyse how such an activity may be considered compatible, or not with the protection of the marine ...

Influence of Metal Species and Content of Fe‐Ni‐Poly(heptazine imides) on their Properties as Electrocatalysts for Zinc‐Air Batteries

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Iron/nickel‐modified poly(heptazine imides) are efficient, low‐cost bifunctional electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction and evolution reactions in aqueous zinc–air batteries. Iron enhances oxygen reduction, while nickel single‐atoms deliver oxygen evolution activity comparable to RuO2.
