Lewis‐Acid Engineering with Neodymium Promoters as Synergistic Nd‐Ni Dual Sites for Enhanced Urea Oxidation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The integration of rare‐metal neodymium centers to engineer Lewis acid sites with nickel centers is proposed as highly efficient UOR catalysts. ABSTRACT The sluggish kinetics of the urea oxidation reaction (UOR) are strongly associated with the high energy barriers required for the C‐N cleavage and N‐N coupling steps.

K+‐Triggered Defect Engineering and Proton‐Coupled Storage in V2O5·nH2O for Advanced Zn‐Ion Thin‐Film and Microbatteries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
K+ pre‐intercalation in V2O5·nH2O induces interlayer contraction, oxygen‐vacancy formation, and mixed‐valence states, activating defect‐mediated proton‐dominated transport. This enables cooperative H+/Zn2+ storage with enhanced kinetics and stability. The resulting Zn‐based thin‐film and microbatteries deliver high areal energy and capacity, offering a
