Summary: Three types of high-quality beta-ketoenamine-type COF nanosheets with different pore sizes were developed and aggregated into ultrathin nanosheet membranes with distinctive staggered stacking patterns. The narrowed pore sizes derived from the micro-structures and selective adsorption capacities synergistically endowed the COF membranes with intriguing CO2-philic separation performances, among which TpPa-2 with medium pore size exhibited an optimal CO2/H-2 separation factor of 22 and a CO2 permeance of 328 gas permeation units at 298 K. This membrane performance reached the target of commercial feasibility for syngas separations.

Summary: We developed HydraGNN, a PyTorch-based architecture, which utilizes graph convolutional neural networks (GCNNs) to predict the formation energy and bulk modulus of solid solution alloy models with different atomic crystal structures and relaxed volumes. The GCNN surrogate model was trained using a dataset for nickel-niobium (NiNb) generated by the embedded atom model (EAM) empirical interatomic potential for demonstration purposes. The dataset was generated by calculating the formation energy and bulk modulus for optimized geometries starting from initial body-centered cubic (BCC), face-centered cubic (FCC), and hexagonal compact packed (HCP) crystal structures, covering the possible compositional range for each structure type. Numerical results demonstrate that the GCNN model effectively predicts the formation energy and bulk modulus based on the optimized crystal structure, relaxed volume, and configurational entropy of the solid solution alloy models.

Summary: We studied the electron transport within the MXene layers as a function of composition and found a linear relationship between current and voltage at lower potentials in all MXene compositions, indicating their metallic character. However, the conductivity varies among different compositions, with MXenes without surface terminations exhibiting higher conductivity compared to MXenes with surface functionalization. The conductivity also changes with the ratio of -O and -OH on the MXene surface. The surface composition-dependent conductivity of MXenes provides a way to enhance the pseudocapacitive performance.

Summary: Water splitting driven by solar energy is a promising strategy for producing renewable hydrogen with minimal environmental impact. Perovskite oxides have unique structural features that make them suitable for water splitting applications. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations are used to accurately predict the critical properties of perovskite oxides relevant to water splitting processes. The challenges associated with the choice of exchange-correlation functional in DFT methods are discussed in this review.

Summary: Hofmeister effects and specific ion effects are common in biological systems, but they may not always follow the Hofmeister series in complex biological systems like ion channels. Studying the interaction energies between anions and amino acids can help explain why certain binding interactions are favored. The strength of interactions follows the Hofmeister series and increases with the polarity of amino acids, except for negatively charged amino acid side chains. Interactions involving both the side chain and protic moieties of the backbone are generally most favorable, and the total interaction energy is primarily determined by the electrostatic component and the thorn ('sho') value of the anion.

Summary: In this paper, a selective DMF sensor using a molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) field-effect transistor (FET) is proposed. The sensor responds to DMF molecules but not to similar molecules of formamide, N,N-diethylformamide, and N,N-dimethylacetamide. The thin structure of MoS2-FET can be incorporated into a microfluidic chamber, which allows for real-time DMF monitoring by exchanging solutions subsequently. The designed device shows DMF monitoring in NaCl ionic solutions from 1 to 200 μL/mL. This work proposes the concept of selectively monitoring redox-inactive molecules based on the nonideal atomic affinity site on the surface of two-dimensional semiconductors.

Summary: The complexes of He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe with B3N3H6 were investigated using MP2, CCSD(T), and SAPT ab initio methods. The complexes can be described as mono-, di-, and tri-coordinated to the N atoms, with stability following the order N-mono < N-di < N-tri. The interactions are dominated by dispersion and the binding energies are within the range of 1 or 2 kcal mol(-1). The results were compared with a recent DFT study on larger BN sheets complexes [Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 24 (2022) 2554-2566.].

Summary: It has been found that the introduction of buffer layers improves the electrical performance of solid oxide fuel cells (SSOFCs). In this study, varying ratios of Gd-doped CeO2 were used as buffer layers in YSZ-based SSOFCs. The results demonstrate that the performance of SSOFCs is enhanced when a buffer layer is added, with the highest performance achieved using Ce0.8Gd0.2O2-delta (GDC20) as the buffer layer. This suggests that the use of GDC series buffer layers is an attractive strategy to optimize performance loss due to electrolyte-electrode interactions.

Experimental data shows that CsPbI3 nanorods have an extremely high two-photon absorption cross-section, significantly surpassing organic chromophores and other CsPbBr3 nanocrystals. Moreover, adjusting the aspect ratio can significantly enhance the absorption ability. Additionally, the study also reveals a moderate quantum confinement effect on the single-photon and two-photon absorption cross-section of the nanorods.
