Study on the Reaction Mechanism of RuOx and Its Enhanced Hydrogen Evolution Reaction Activity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In situ Raman spectroscopy and DFT calculations reveal that, prior to the onset of HER, the surface of RuOx undergoes reversible reduction and structural reconstruction. The resulting Ru(II)O/Ru(IV)O2 configuration is identified as the true catalytically active species.

Overcoming the Catalytic Bucket Effect in Pt‐based High‐Entropy Nanocages Through Interface Defect and Strain Engineering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
PtPdNiCuMnAu HENCs exhibit a remarkable half‐wave potential (E1/2) of 0.925 V vs. RHE. The catalyst displays exceptional electrochemical stability, with only a 4 mV negative shift in E1/2 and a mere 5.6% loss in MA after 10, 000 accelerated durability test cycles.

Continuous‐Flow Microfluidic Synthesis Enhances C2+ Selectivity for Cu2O Catalysts

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Microfluidic devices are used to prepare Cu2O nanoparticles under laminar flow conditions, which exhibit enhanced selectivity in the CO2‐to‐C2+ reaction due to their nanoporosity and high defect concentration. Cu2O prepared using standard solution methods displays decreased CO2‐to‐C2+ selectivity due to the absence of similar properties. Altogether, we

(Fe4N/GaN)@GC: A Bifunctional Electrocatalyst for High‐Performance Rechargeable Zinc‐Air Batteries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates that an unprecedented Fe4N/GaN heterostructure, stabilized by a graphitized carbon shell, induces interfacial charge redistribution and optimizes oxygen‐intermediate adsorption, enabling highly efficient bifunctional ORR/OER electrocatalysis for rechargeable zinc‐air batteries.

Adaptive Cu Reconstruction in Heterostructure Drives High‐Rate Nitrate‐to‐Ammonia Conversion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An adaptively reconstructed Cu/CoOX heterojunction, featuring a surface‐localized, hydroxyl‐rich oxidized Cu species, forms in situ from a CuO/CoOX (Co1Cu9OX) pre‐catalyst during electrochemical nitrate reduction. The self‐adaptive reconstruction and the incorporation of heterostructure regulate nitrogen‐containing intermediate adsorption and *H supply,

Diastereomeric Monomers Enable Anion‐Exchange Membranes With Controlled Local Polymer Backbone Flexibility and High Conductivity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Stereochemistry enables control of ion‐exchange membrane properties via local backbone flexibility without altering the polymer composition. Syn‐enriched membranes show higher water uptake and improved water‐electrolysis performance, whereas anti‐enriched membranes exhibit higher hydration efficiency and improved mechanical properties.

Two‐Dimensional Quaternary Alloys of (RuMoVNb)Se2 for Superior Hydrogen Evolution Reaction Catalysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Composition‐tuned (RuMoVNb)Se2 quaternary alloy nanosheets are synthesized via colloidal reactions. Incorporation of Ru into (MoVNb)Se2 ternary alloys results in more metallic electronic structures and significantly enhances their electrocatalytic activity for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) under alkaline, acidic, and neutral conditions.
