Summary: In this study, synergistic effects between spin-orbit coupling and the Stark effect in centrosymmetric few-layer black arsenic are reported, leading to particle-hole asymmetric Rashba valley formation and exotic quantum Hall states controlled by electrostatic gating. These novel phenomena are rooted in the unique lattice structure and orbital symmetries of black arsenic, enabling gate-tunable manipulation of Rashba valleys for two-dimensional electronic systems with unconventional quantum Hall states.

Summary: The integration of aryl diazonium modified few-layer black phosphorus with ultrafine yttrium oxide for reducing the fire hazard of epoxy resin showed significant improvement in flame retardancy, with peak heat release rate and total heat release reduced by 47.0% and 48.1% respectively. The addition of BP-NH-Y nanosheets also inhibited the diffusion of toxic gases during combustion, leading to epoxy composites achieving a UL-94 V-0 rating with only 1.0 wt% BP-NHY. This work holds promise for developing efficient covalent functionalized BP nanosheets for sustainable applications.

Summary: In this study, an adaptive design framework is proposed to search for optimal materials starting from zero data and with as few DFT calculations as possible. This framework integrates automatic density functional theory (DFT) calculations with an improved Monte Carlo tree search via reinforcement learning algorithm (MCTS-PG). As a successful example, it is applied to rapidly identify desired alloy catalysts for CO2 activation and methanation within 200 MCTS-PG steps. Seven alloy surfaces with high theoretical activity and selectivity for CO2 methanation are screened out and further validated by comprehensive free energy calculations. Our adaptive design framework enables the fast computational exploration of materials with desired properties via minimal DFT calculations.

Summary: Developing activity descriptors using machine learning can accelerate the design of high-performance and low-cost electrocatalysts. In this study, a interpretable machine learning method, multi-task symbolic regression, was used to construct a universal activity descriptor for evaluating the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance of oxide perovskites. The descriptor achieved high accuracy and generalization ability. By utilizing this descriptor and Bayesian-optimized parameters, promising double perovskites with excellent OER activity were predicted and evaluated. The synthesis and characterization of the two best-performing nickel-based perovskites were successfully conducted experimentally. This work presents a new approach for machine learning-based material design by utilizing multiple data sources.

Summary: The design of a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) plays a crucial role in improving the electrochemical performance of anode materials. In this study, lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate (LiDFOB) is used as an electrolyte additive to form a protective SEI film on Li3VO4 (LVO) anodes. The addition of LiDFOB results in a dense, uniform, stable, and LiF-richer SEI, which enhances the Li-ion storage kinetics. The generated SEI also prevents further decomposition of the electrolyte and maintains the morphology of LVO anodes during charge/discharge processes. This work demonstrates the effectiveness of LiDFOB as a multi-functional additive for LiPF6 electrolytes and provides insights into SEI construction for high-performance LVO anodes.

Summary: In this study, we used density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the interaction between model graphene oxide (GO) nanostructures and chlorine monoxide ClO. We aimed to understand the role of this highly oxidizing species in breaking C-C bonds and forming significant holes on GO sheets. Our results showed that C-C bonds in a single graphene oxide sheet can be broken through a simple mechanism involving the dissociation of two chemically attached ClO molecules. The formation of carbonyl groups and holes on the GO surface was also observed. This study provides important insights into the degradation of carbon nanotubes and the stability of GO during the myeloperoxidase (MPO) catalytic cycle.

Summary: In this study, the X-ray stability of five different lead halide perovskite compositions (MAPbI3, MAPbCl3, MAPbBr3, FAPbBr3, CsPbBr3) was investigated using photoelectron spectroscopy. Different degradation mechanisms and resistance to X-ray were observed depending on the crystal composition. Overall, perovskite compositions based on the MA+ cation were found to be less stable than those based on FA+ or Cs+. Metallic lead formation was most easily observed in the chloride perovskite, followed by bromide, and very little in MAPbI3. Multiple degradation processes were identified for the bromide compositions, including ion migration, formation of volatile and solid products, as well as metallic lead. CsBr was formed as a solid degradation product on the surface of CsPbBr3.

Increasing the manganese content leads to a decrease in stability. The behavior of iron and manganese in the oxide shows distinct differences, which can be attributed to the difference in the enthalpy of oxidation reactions. Additionally, the change in the La/Sr ratio affects the concentration of iron and manganese ions.
