Summary: This study systematically investigates the catalytic properties of group 4-6 element oxides, including TiO2, ZrO2, HfO2, V2O5, Ta2O5, CrO3, MoO3, and WO3, on magnesium hydride (MgH2). The dispersion of each oxide on the MgH2 surface is achieved through ball-milling. The hydrogen desorption properties are analyzed, and the oxides on MgH2 are characterized structurally and spectroscopically. Among the oxides, TiO2, V2O5, ZrO2, and CrO3 exhibit higher catalytic activity, enabling hydrogen desorption at around 200°C. The dispersion of the oxides on Mg is found to be closely related to the catalytic process, except for MoO3. Multi oxide states, particularly the 2+ and 3+ oxidation states of transition metals, contribute to the high catalytic activity.

Summary: X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to investigate the electronic structure of Zn0.3Mn0.7+xSixFe2-2xO4 ferrite series. The results revealed the presence of Si ions in the +4 valence state. Silicon-oxygen (Si-O) and suboxide SiOx were found to be present in the system, with an increase in Si-O content and a decrease in SiOx content upon Mn-Si substitution. The Fe2p XPS spectra indicated the co-occurrence of ferrous and ferric ions in the system, with ferrous ions occupying octahedral sites and ferric ions dwelling on both octahedral and tetrahedral sites. The O1s spectra showed an increase in oxygen defects with increasing Mn-Si substitution. The Mn2p XPS data showed an overall increasing trend in the Mn+2 states and an increment in the Mn+4/Mn+3 ratio with increasing Mn-Si substitution.

Summary: The study shows that manganese oxide films thinner than 1.5 nm are not oxygen evolution reaction (OER) active, while thicker films can serve as active catalysts for OER. One Mn-III,Mn-IV-O monolayer is sufficient to achieve oxygen evolution under alkaline conditions. The results provide important new design criteria for ultrathin manganese oxide oxygen evolution catalysts.

Summary: The study investigated the magnesiation behavior, cycling performance, and structural stability of (MgxLi1-x)Mn2O4 spinel cathodes under different electrolyte conditions. Cycling in aqueous electrolyte showed high reversibility but experienced large polarization and capacity fading, while cycling in non-aqueous electrolyte led to lower initial capacity and faster failure. However, cycling in a specific non-aqueous electrolyte exhibited excellent cycling performance with low polarization and near theoretical Mg insertion voltages.

Summary: The introduction of structural defects in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) through the fractional use of defective linkers can refine the properties of existing MOFs. Understanding the structure of defect-engineered MOFs is crucial for targeted property enhancement. Full-field X-ray absorption near-edge structure computed tomography can help visualize the chemical heterogeneity in defect-engineered MOF crystals, revealing non-uniform incorporation of defective linkers within the MOF.

Summary: The Ti/SnO2 interface was investigated using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Chemical interaction between SnO2 and the titanium overlayer at the interface resulted in the reduction of SnO2 to elemental tin and the oxidation of the titanium overlayer. The interface consisted of elemental Sn, SnO2, elemental titanium, TiO2, and Ti-suboxide. Thermal diffusion of the titanium overlayer was observed in the 200 degrees C samples, leading to complete oxidation of the titanium.

Summary: Carboxylic acids, such as phthalic acid, can be used to bind organic molecules to oxide surfaces. This study investigates the adsorption and reactions of phthalic acid on MgO(100) at different temperatures and coverages. It is found that at low coverage and low temperature, phthalic acid deprotonates and forms dicarboxylate species. However, at higher coverage, intact phthalic acid becomes more dominant. Further annealing results in the conversion of intact acid groups to carboxylate species. The stability of these species depends on coverage, remaining stable up to 500 - 600 K.

Summary: The use of cerium-based conversion coating has been shown to effectively improve the corrosion resistance of squeeze-cast Mg-4wt%Y alloy in a salt solution, with significant reduction in corrosion rate observed compared to the base alloy. The corrosion mechanism predominantly involves pitting corrosion around the second phase due to micro-galvanic coupling between alpha-Mg phase and Mg24Y5 precipitates.

Summary: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of heat treatment on the microstructure, mechanical, and corrosion properties of Al 319.0 alloy. The results show that heat treatment leads to the dissolution of certain phases and changes in the morphology of others. Treated alloy specimens exhibit improved mechanical properties at ambient temperatures, but a reduction in performance at higher temperatures due to thermal softening. In terms of corrosion resistance, the heat-treated alloy demonstrates superior performance compared to the as-cast alloy, thanks to the presence of protective precipitates and a finer microstructure.

Summary: In this study, a CO2 sensor capable of low-temperature operation was fabricated using an open-channel-type thin-film transistor structure with a polar surface of an oxide semiconductor. The sensor showed a sensitivity 2.9 times greater than that under an inert N2 atmosphere at an operating temperature of only 150 degrees C. The results suggest that TFTs fabricated with polar surfaces of oxide semiconductors are useful for gas-sensing applications.

Summary: Water is essential for the survival of living organisms, but industrialization has led to contamination of water sources with heavy metals and harmful pollutants. Magnetic nano ferrites have shown potential in effectively removing heavy metals from water due to their magnetic characteristics, high surface area, surface active sites, chemical stability, and ease of modification. This review explores recent literature on the synthesis and application of magnetic ferrites for removing heavy metals from water, aiming to provide a comprehensive understanding for future research.

Summary: In this study, a defective system of V-doped Fe2O3 with Pt as a cocatalyst was used for photoelectrochemical water oxidation. The defects in the VFPt-2.5 photoanode were characterized by XPS and EPR analyses. The SEM and TEM analyses revealed that the electrodeposited V-doped alpha-Fe2O3 had a nanosized morphology with an average diameter of 12 nm and a thickness of 300 nm. Under light irradiation, the VFPt-2.5 photoanode achieved a remarkable onset potential and photocurrent density. The stability test showed that Pt helped overcome the charge recombination caused by surface states.
