TL;DR: An atypical and stable OBC catalyst with a hierarchical pore and nanograin-boundary structure was constructed and was found to exhibit efficient CO2RR for production of ethylene, providing insight into the synthesis and structural characteristics of OBC, as well as its interplay with ethylene selectivity.

TL;DR: In this article, a hierarchical N-NiMoS cuboid array was proposed for electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) with high efficiency and long-term stability.

TL;DR: In this paper, vanadium tetrasulfide (VS4) with a beneficial one-dimensional atomic-chain structure is reported to serve as a favorable intercalation cathode material for high-performance Zn-ion batteries.

TL;DR: In this paper, an in-situ N-coordinated and graphene self-encapsulated strategy was developed to improve the catalytic activity and stability of the N-CoS2@graphene, which achieved an extremely low overpotentials of only 205 and 292 mV at the current density of 10 and 100 mA cm−2, respectively, showing superior activities as compared with state-of-the-art transition-metal-based catalysts.

TL;DR: In this article, a self-supported ultrathin Bi nanosheets have been acquired by a very simple strategy of in situ topotactic transformation using BiOCl as the primary template (named T-BiNS).
