Activating a Metallization Switch for Record Hydrogen Evolution in Single‐Atom Modified Polar MOF Piezocatalysts

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Piezocatalytic hydrogen evolution enables the conversion of mechanical energy into chemical fuels, but its efficiency is constrained by a trade‐off between piezoelectric polarization and electronic conductivity. Strong piezoelectric polarization is essential for sufficient driving force, yet highly polar materials typically suffer from poor ...

Highly Anisotropic Quasi‐Direct Organic Metal Halide Hybrids: A Platform for Polarization‐Sensitive Optoelectronics

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
One‐dimensional C4N2H14PbBr4 is shown to have a quasi‐direct electronic band structure and strongly anisotropic transport with polarized broadband emission. A GW/Bethe–Salpeter excited‐state force formalism, supported by polarized Raman and temperature‐dependent photoluminescence, identifies low–frequency Pb–Br phonons that drive ultrafast exciton self‐

MOx/Rh Metallene with Energetic Interfaces as Efficient Bifunctional Electrocatalyst for Durable Water Splitting

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
 . ABSTRACT Developing excellent activity and stability bifunctional electrocatalysts for alkaline water splitting remains challenging. This work constructs ultrathin MOx/Rh metallene heterostructures (M = Fe, Co, Ni) via atmosphere‐controlled solvothermal synthesis, achieving uniform MOx nanoclusters on Rh metallene with optimized interfaces. The FeOx/
