Effect of Al3+ substitution on structural, morphological, magnetic, optical, and functional study of ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles

AIP Advances
ZnFe1−xAlxO4 (x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5) samples were synthesized by the combustion method. The x-ray diffraction pattern confirms that the ferrite samples have a cubic inverse spinel structure, and Rietveld refinement adds more weight to this ...

Unraveling the Synergistic Activity‐Stability Enhancement of a High‐Entropy Perovskite Air Electrode for Dual Ceramic Electrochemical Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A high‐entropy air electrode material, Gd0.2Pr0.2Ba0.2Sr0.2Ca0.2FeO3−δ (GPBSCF), is developed for both solid oxide fuel cells and reversible protonic ceramic cells. Its enhanced activity stems from increased oxygen vacancies/holes. The stability improvement is attributed to lattice distortion, while thermal expansion reduction is synergistically due to

Tailored Catalytic Microenvironments Enable Efficient Electrochemical Ammonia Production

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study shows that Co2+ substitution in inverse spinel FeFeCoO4 constructs an integrated catalytic microenvironment for efficient nitrate‐to‐ammonia reduction. Jahn–Teller distortion activates Fe sites for *H generation, while hard–soft acid–base regulated dual‐metal sites optimize proton‐coupled electron transfer and intermediate adsorption ...

Phase Fraction Modulation Enhances Li+/Na+ Diffusion Disparity in Spent LiFePO4 Cathodes for Efficient Lithium Extraction from Brine

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A direct cascaded utilization strategy for spent LiFePO4 batteries efficiently extracts lithium from brine, embodying the “urban mining” concept. Phase fraction modulation revealed its significant impact on local bond lengths of crystal structure and the Li/Na diffusion energy barrier, identifying the best material (Li0.19FePO4) for lithium extraction.

Defect Driven Electronic Structure Reconfiguration and Hierarchical Phonon Suppression in Ag2Se Thermoelectrics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Indium substitution in Ag2Se nanocrystals simultaneously tailors electronic structure and lattice dynamics. Fermi‐level upshift and band‐gap narrowing enhance electrical transport, while defect‐induced lattice softening intensifies phonon scattering and suppresses lattice thermal conductivity.
