Electronically Modified Atomic Sites Within a Multicomponent Co/Cu Composite for Efficient Oxygen Electroreduction

Qingran Zhang et al.

Summary: The novel ORR catalyst, SA-CoCu@Cu/CoNP, exhibits remarkable catalytic activity, exceptional stability, and excellent methanol tolerance in alkaline media, outperforming commercial platinum carbon under identical testing conditions and being active in acidic media. The improved ORR catalytic performance is attributed to the modified electronic structure of Co-N-x active sites due to an electron donating effect from the embedded nanoparticles and nearby Cu-N-x species.

A Nickel-Decorated Carbon Flower/Sulfur Cathode for Lean-Electrolyte Lithium-Sulfur Batteries

Yuchi Tsao et al.

Summary: By designing a flower-shaped porous carbon structure with nickel nanoparticles, the issues of large polarization, low sulfur utilization, and capacity fade in lithium-sulfur batteries have been addressed. The 3D flower-shaped carbon structure enables short ionic transport lengths, while the small pore diameters and sufficient pore volume are ideal for improving charging performance at low electrolyte to sulfur ratios. The use of Ni nanoparticles on the flower-shaped network improves reaction kinetics, leading to successful demonstration of batteries with high mass loading and good cycle retention.
