Interface Engineering News Today

In the past decades, remarkable progress has been achieved in the exploration of electrocatalysts with high activity, long durability, and low cost. Among these, defective graphene (DG)-based catalysts are considered as one of the most potential substitutes for precious metal-based electrocatalysts. DG-based catalysts contain abundant active centers with different configurations resulting from their extraordinary high-structural tunability. Herein, an overview on recent advancements in developin...

Advantis Credit Union, Oregon’s sixth largest not-for-profit financial cooperative, completes its new campus at 14405 Meyers Road in Oregon City. Marking

Antiferroelectric thin-film capacitors with ultralow remanent polarization and fast discharge speed have attracted extensive attention for energy storage applications. A multilayer heterostructure is considered to be an efficient approach to enhance the breakdown strength and improve the functionality. Here, we report a high-performance multilayer heterostructure (PbZrO3/PbTiO3)n with a maximum recoverable energy storage density of 36.4 J/cm3 due to its high electric breakdown strength (2.9 MV/c...

The terrible toll the COVID-19 pandemic took on frail seniors has accelerated the search for new models that provide safe and desirable housing options for this rapidly growing demographic. The over-65 population is projected to grow from  46 million today, to 71 million by 2030, 33 million of whom will be over 75 with increasing risk of dementia and chronic conditions.

Abstract Boosting the alkaline hydrogen evolution and oxidation reaction (HER/HOR) kinetics is vital to practicing the renewable hydrogen cycle in alkaline media. Recently, intensive research has demonstrated that interface engineering is of critical significance for improving the performance of heterostructured electrocatalysts particularly toward the electrochemical reactions involving multiple reaction intermediates like alkaline hydrogen electrocatalysis, and the research advances also brin...

Abstract Tailoring catalysts with balanced adsorption capabilities toward multiple reaction intermediates is highly desirable for complex electrocatalytic reactions, but rather challenging. Here, Ni single atom-decorated carbon nanosheets are developed as multifunctional supports for engineering heterostructured electrocatalysts toward hydrogen evolution in alkaline media. The Ni single atoms (Ni–N ) are actively dedicated to cleaving the H–OH bonds as well as facilitating H spillover to m...
