TL;DR: The interlayer shear mode of FLGs, ranging from bilayer graphene (BLG) to bulk graphite, is uncovered, and it is suggested that the corresponding Raman peak measures the interlayer coupling.
Abstract: The quest for materials capable of realizing the next generation of electronic and photonic devices continues to fuel research on the electronic, optical and vibrational properties of graphene. Few-layer graphene (FLG) flakes with less than ten layers each show a distinctive band structure. Thus, there is an increasing interest in the physics and applications of FLGs. Raman spectroscopy is one of the most useful and versatile tools to probe graphene samples. Here, we uncover the interlayer shear mode of FLGs, ranging from bilayer graphene (BLG) to bulk graphite, and suggest that the corresponding Raman peak measures the interlayer coupling. This peak scales from 43 cm 1 in bulk graphite to 31 cm 1 in BLG. Its low energy makes it sensitive to near-Dirac point quasiparticles. Similar shear modes are expected in all layered materials, providing a direct probe of interlayer interactions.

TL;DR: In this article, phosphorus-doped graphitic carbon nitride nanostructured flowers of in-plane mesopores are synthesized by a co-condensation method in the absence of any templates.
Abstract: Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has been deemed a promising heterogeneous metal-free catalyst for a wide range of applications, such as solar energy utilization toward water splitting, and its photocatalytic performance is reasonably adjustable through tailoring its texture and its electronic and optical properties. Here phosphorus-doped graphitic carbon nitride nanostructured flowers of in-plane mesopores are synthesized by a co-condensation method in the absence of any templates. The interesting structures, together with the phosphorus doping, can promote light trapping, mass transfer, and charge separation, enabling it to perform as a more impressive catalyst than its pristine carbon nitride counterpart for catalytic hydrogen evolution under visible light irradiation. The catalyst has low cost, is environmentally friendly, and represents a potential candidate in photoelectrochemistry.

TL;DR: This review attempts to highlight the key advancements made in the synthesis of COFs for diverse separation applications such as water treatment or the separation of gas mixtures and organic molecules, including chiral and isomeric compounds.
Abstract: Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are an emerging class of crystalline porous polymers with highly tuneable structures and functionalities. COFs have been proposed as ideal materials for applications in the energy-intensive field of molecular separation due to their notable intrinsic features such as low density, exceptional stability, high surface area, and readily adjustable pore size and chemical environment. This review attempts to highlight the key advancements made in the synthesis of COFs for diverse separation applications such as water treatment or the separation of gas mixtures and organic molecules, including chiral and isomeric compounds. Methods proposed for the fabrication of COF-based columns and continuous membranes for practical applications are also discussed in detail. Finally, a perspective regarding the remaining challenges and future directions for COF research in the field of separation has also been presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate that FeS2 microspheres can be applied in room-temperature rechargeable sodium batteries with only the intercalation reaction by simultaneously selecting a compatible NaSO3CF3/diglyme electrolyte and tuning the cut-off voltage to 0.8 V.
Abstract: It is desirable to develop electrode materials for advanced rechargeable batteries with low cost, long life, and high-rate capability. Pyrite FeS2, as an easily obtained natural mineral, has been already commercialized in primary lithium batteries, but encountered problems in rechargeable batteries with carbonate-based electrolytes due to the limited cycle life caused by the conversion-type reaction (FeS2 + 4M → Fe + 2M2S (M = Li or Na)). Herein, we demonstrate that FeS2 microspheres can be applied in room-temperature rechargeable sodium batteries with only the intercalation reaction by simultaneously selecting a compatible NaSO3CF3/diglyme electrolyte and tuning the cut-off voltage to 0.8 V. A surprisingly high-rate capability (170 mA h g−1 at 20 A g−1) and unprecedented long-term cyclability (∼90% capacity retention for 20 000 cycles) has been obtained. We suggest that a stable electrically conductive layer-structured NaxFeS2 was formed during cycling, which enables the highly reversible sodium intercalation and deintercalation. Moreover, 18650-type sodium batteries were constructed exhibiting a high capacity of ∼4200 mA h (corresponding to 126 W h kg−1 and 382 W h L−1) and a capacity retention of 97% after an initial 200 cycles at 4 A during charge–discharge. This shows that the production of rechargeable sodium batteries with FeS2 microspheres is viable for commercial utilization.
