Water Oxidation to Hydrogen Peroxide Over a Super‐Aerophilic Graphite Catalyst

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Design of super‐aerophilic graphite catalyst capable of trapping in situ produced oxygen gas on its surface under the electrolyte environment. By so doing, it is able to moderate intermediate species binding, which is critical to enabling the two‐electron water oxidation reaction to hydrogen peroxide.

Anion‐Cation Synergistic Regulation of Low‐Dimensional Perovskite Passivation Layer for Perovskite Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The sulfur‐hybridized aniline‐like molecule thiomorpholine (SMOR) forms n = 1 2D perovskite and is preferred to transfer into 1D perovskite instead of high n‐valued 2D perovskite after aging. Due to larger formation energy, chlorine anion is better than iodine anion to accelerate the formation of 1D phase.

Field pest monitoring and forecasting system for pest control

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Insect pest is an essential factor affecting crop yield, and the effect of pest control depends on the timeliness and accuracy of pest forecasting. The traditional method forecasts pest outbreaks by manually observing (capturing), identifying, and counting insects, which is very time-consuming and laborious. Therefore, developing a method that can more
