In this study, we report that the supercapacitor performance of polypyrrole (PPy) in non-aqueous electrolytes can be dramatically improved by highly conductive nanoporous gold which acts as both the support of active PPy and the current collector of supercapacitors. The excellent electronic conductivity, rich porous structure and large surface area of the nanoporous electrodes give rise to a high specific capacitance and low internal resistance in non aqueous electrolytes. Combining with a wide working potential window of similar to 2 V, the non-aqueous PPy-based supercapacitors show an extraordinary energy density and power density. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.

Entropy-Stabilized Multicomponent Porous Spinel Nanowires of NiFeXO4 (X = Fe, Ni, Al, Mo, Co, Cr) for Efficient and Durable Electrocatalytic Oxygen Evolution Reaction in Alkaline Medium

Qiwen Zhang, Yixuan Hu, Haofei Wu, Xiaoran Zhao, Mingliang Wang, Sihong Wang, Ruohan Feng, Qing Chen, Fang Song, Mingwei Chen, Pan Liu

Summary: The article reports on a eutectic dealloying strategy to activate porous spinel NiFe2O4 nanowires with multivalent cation substitutions. The obtained NiFeXO4 exhibits superior electrocatalytic performance for the oxygen evolution reaction, delivering a benchmark current density and high stability. This is attributed to lattice distortion and electronic coupling, as well as the absorption of H2O molecules facilitated by the multication substitution strategy.

Surface Defects Improved SERS Activity of Nanoporous Gold Prepared by Electrochemical Dealloying

Ling Zhang, Zhiyu Jing, Zhexiao Li, Takeshi Fujita

Summary: By controlling electrochemical dealloying, we modified the ligament surface of nanoporous gold (NPG) to improve its surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) property. The presence of high-density atomic steps and kinks on the curved surfaces, as well as high-content silver atoms close to the ligament surface, contributed to the high SERS ability. This strategy is important for the fabrication of nanoporous metals with excellent surface properties for sensing, conversion, and catalysis.

Atomistic origin of shear induced quasi-plastic deformation in boron carbide

Yidi Shen, Kolan Madhav Reddy, Jun Li, Mingwei Chen, Qi An

Summary: We investigated the deformation mechanisms in superhard boron carbide (B4C) using a combination of molecular dynamics simulations and transmission electron microscopy experiments. Interestingly, we observed an anomalous quasi-plastic deformation in B4C under ideal shear deformation along the (111)[112] slip system. This behavior can be attributed to the formation and propagation of slip bands, which are stabilized by newly formed bonding during deformation. On the other hand, the dislocation-like mechanism mediated amorphization was observed in B4C under shear deformation along other slip systems.

Ordered macroporous graphenic carbon-based framework materials and their low-temperature co-sacrificial template synthesis mechanism

Kemeng Ji, Guohong Liang, Yuhao Shen, Hongxing Dai, Jiuhui Han, Yoshikazu Ito, Takeshi Fujita, Jun-ichi Fujita, Chengyang Wang, Mingming Chen

Summary: Ordered porous functional materials, including microporous metal-organic frameworks and mesoporous silica, have been extensively studied for their unique physiochemical properties and broad potential applications. However, the lack of ordered macroporous materials, especially those with high crystallinity, hinders the extension of these advantages to a larger scale. Through a co-sacrificial template sequential pyrolysis process, a three-dimensionally ordered macroporous framework material, OMGCs, has been developed, consisting of well-crystallized graphenic carbon and uniformly dispersed metallic nanocrystals. These OMGCs exhibit a low-temperature formation mechanism and may greatly expand the family of ordered porous framework materials for emerging applications.

Linghui Li, Satoshi Hagiwara, Cheng Jiang, Haruki Kusaka, Norinobu Watanabe, Takeshi Fujita, Fumiaki Kuroda, Akiyasu Yamamoto, Masashi Miyakawa, Takashi Taniguchi, Hideo Hosono, Minoru Otani, Takahiro Kondo

Summary: The current energy crisis and environmental problems associated with fossil fuel use have led to a growing interest in the development of robust, low-cost, and high-performance electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline media. In this study, an OER electrocatalyst is prepared by hybridizing rhombohedral boron monosulfide with graphene, resulting in improved electronic conductivity. The catalytic activity of this electrocatalyst surpasses that of most previously reported counterparts, with an overpotential of 250 mV at 10 mA cm-2. These findings open up possibilities for designing electrocatalysts composed of abundant elements for various renewable energy applications.

An unexpected interfacial Mo-rich phase in 2D molybdenum disulfide and 3D gold heterojunctions

Mengjia Wang, Ruichun Luo, Yuxin Liu, Xiaoran Zhao, Xiaodong Zhuang, Wen Wu Xu, Mingwei Chen, Pan Liu

Summary: The interface engineering of 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (2D-TMDs) and metals is an efficient method to adjust their electrical and optoelectronic properties. In this study, a 2D non-van der Waals (vdW) Mo-rich phase was discovered during the growth of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) from a Mo-Au surface alloy in a S-poor environment. This Mo-rich phase preferentially nucleates between the outermost 2D MoS2 and a 3D nanostructured Au substrate, leading to a n-type contact interface with an ultralow transition energy barrier height.

On the co-nucleation of adjoining twin pairs at grain boundaries in hexagonal close-packed materials

Darshan Bamney, Laurent Capolungo

Summary: This work investigates the formation of adjoining twin pairs (ATPs) at grain boundaries (GBs) in hexagonal close-packed (hcp) metals, focusing on the co-nucleation (CN) of pairs of deformation twins. A continuum defect mechanics model is proposed to study the energetic feasibility of CN of ATPs resulting from GB dislocation dissociation. The model reveals that CN is preferred over the nucleation of a single twin variant for low misorientation angle GBs. Further analysis considering GB character and twin system alignment suggests that CN events could be responsible for ATP formation even at low m' values.

Sharp/diffuse antiferroelectric-ferroelectric phase transition regulated by atomic displacement ordering

Bing Han, Zhengqian Fu, Guoxiang Zhao, Xuefeng Chen, Genshui Wang, Fangfang Xu

Summary: This study investigates the behavior of electric-field induced antiferroelectric to ferroelectric (AFE-FE) phase transition and reveals the evolution of atomic displacement ordering as the cause for the transition behavior changing from sharp to diffuse. The novel semi-ordered configuration results from the competing interaction between long-range displacement modulation and compositional inhomogeneity, which leads to a diffuse AFE-FE transition while maintaining the switching field.

Guowei Zhou, Yuanzhe Hu, Zizheng Cao, Myoung Gyu Lee, Dayong Li

Summary: In this work, a physics-constrained neural network is used to predict grain-level responses in FCC material by incorporating crystal plasticity theory. The key feature, shear strain rate of slip system, is identified based on crystal plasticity and incorporated into the loss function as physical constitutive equations. The introduction of physics constraints accelerates the convergence of the neural network model and improves prediction accuracy, especially for small-scale datasets. Transfer learning is performed to capture complex in-plane deformation of crystals with any initial orientations, including cyclic loading and arbitrary non-monotonic loading.

Relating the combinatorial materials chip mapping to the glass-forming ability of bulk metallic glasses via diffraction peak width

Ze Liu, Cai Chen, Yuanxun Zhou, Lanting Zhang, Hong Wang

Summary: This study attempts to address the gap in cooling rates between thin film deposition and bulk metallic glass (BMG) casting by correlating the glass-forming range (GFR) determined from combinatorial materials chips (CMCs) with the glass-forming ability (GFA) of BMG. The results show that the full-width at half maximum (FWHM) of the first sharp diffraction peak (FSDP) is a good indicator of BMG GFA, and strong positive correlations between FWHM and the critical casting diameter (Dmax) are observed in various BMG systems. Furthermore, the Pearson correlation coefficients suggest possible similarities in the GFA natures of certain BMG pairs.
