NiO/Ni Heterojunction on N-Doped Hollow Carbon Sphere with Balanced Dielectric Loss for Efficient Microwave Absorption

Bei Li et al.

Summary: Small-sized NiO/Ni particles with heterojunctions were constructed on N-doped hollow carbon spheres using SiO2 as a sacrificing template. The NHCS@NiO/Ni exhibited excellent microwave absorbability with a minimum reflection loss of -44.06 dB and a wider efficient absorption bandwidth of 4.38 GHz, surpassing most reported hollow absorbers. The outstanding performance was attributed to the balanced dielectric loss and optimized impedance matching characteristic of NHCS@NiO/Ni due to the presence of NiO/Ni heterojunctions.

Structural Defects in Phase-Regulated High-Entropy Oxides toward Superior Microwave Absorption Properties

Biao Zhao et al.

Summary: This study presents the preparation of two biphasic high-entropy (HE) oxides by controlling crystal phases and structural defects. The HE effects in these complex-phase ceramics induce beneficial defects for microwave dissipation. Stress concentrations and lattice distortions at the interface of spinel and perovskite planes result in numerous point defects and stacking faults. By precise regulation of the components' phase, synergistic effects are achieved in rock salt/spinel HE oxides. The intense polarization driven by structural defects and multi-phases leads to excellent microwave absorption performance, with a minimal reflection loss of -54.5 dB. This research provides valuable guidelines for the design of microwave absorbers using HE oxides.

Summary: Ultrasensitively selective detection of trace polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) like phenanthrene (PHE) is achieved by constructing atomically dispersed Zn sites on g-C3N4 nanosheets through thermal polymerization of a Zn-cyanuric acid-melamine supramolecular precursor. The resulting sZn-CN exhibits a wide detection range, ultralow detection limit, and ultrahigh selectivity toward PHE based on the PHE-CN dual ratiometric fluorescence method. The superior detection performance is attributed to the selective adsorption of PHE on the atomic Zn(II)-N-5 sites and the fluorescence quenching mechanism involving the inner filter effect (IFE) and photogenerated electron-transfer process.

Summary: Defect engineering modified graphite carbon nitride (g-C3N4) with dual defect sites, -C N groups and N vacancies, has been found to significantly enhance the photocatalytic production of H2O2. The dual defect sites form an electron-rich structure and lead to a more localized charge density distribution, which improves light absorption, carrier separation, selectivity, and activity of H2O2 generation. The N vacancies effectively adsorb and activate O-2, while the -C N groups facilitate the adsorption of H+, synergistically promoting H2O2 generation. The modified g-C3N4 achieved a high H2O2 generation rate and apparent quantum efficiency, surpassing previously reported g-C3N4-based photocatalysts.
