Single Solid‐State Ion Channels as Potentiometric Nanosensors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Single gold nanopores functionalized with mixed self‐assembled monolayers act as solid‐state ion channels for direct, selective potentiometric sensing of inorganic ions (Ag⁺). The design overcomes key miniaturization barriers of conventional ion‐selective electrodes by combining low resistivity with suppressed loss of active components, enabling robust

FeNb2O6 as a High‐Performance Anode for Sodium‐Ion Batteries Enabled by Structural Amorphization Coupled with NbO6 Local Ordering

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
FeNb2O6 is applied for the first time as a high‐performance anode material for sodium‐ion batteries. The presence of iron disrupts the long‐range order by local disorder of the FeO6 octahedra during initial sodiation. Simultaneously, the formation of short‐range ordered zigzag‐chain structures within the NbO6 planes establishes a robust intercalation ...
