Living with water scarcity

open access: yes, 2022
Do you worry that there is not enough water for people, the economy and environment? Do you wonder if the water in our taps and rivers is safe or polluted? Do you want to know if farmers waste water, utilities charge too much, or bottled water destroys ecosystems? You're not alone in asking questions. The headlines say "drought, pollution, conflict and

Phase Engineering of Atomically Precise Nanoclusters (APNCs) of Gold and Beyond

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Engineering the structural phase of materials is of paramount importance for both fundamental research and practical applications. In this Review, we summarize the recent progress in controlling the phases of atomically precise nanoclusters (APNCs) of gold, silver and copper, as well as bimetallic systems. The phase‐enabled material properties of APNCs

Boosting Seawater Desalination by Ampere‐Level Nitrate Electroreduction On Defect‐Rich Ultrathin RuCu Alloy Nanostructures

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Defect engineering of ultrathin RuCu alloy nanostructures has been successfully achieved to enhance ammonia electrosynthesis under indutrial‐level current density. Simultaneously, the stable ampere‐level operation of nitrate electroreduction on defective RuCu nanostructures can drive seawater desalination at an ultrafast salt removal rate, offering an ...
