TL;DR: The cathode is composed of uniformly embedded ZnS nanoparticles and Co–N–C single-atom catalyst to form double-end binding sites inside a highly oriented macroporous host, which can effectively immobilize and catalytically convert polysulfide intermediates during cycling, thus eliminating the shuttle effect and lithium metal corrosion.
Abstract: Lithium–sulfur batteries are attractive alternatives to lithium-ion batteries because of their high theoretical specific energy and natural abundance of sulfur. However, the practical specific energy and cycle life of Li–S pouch cells are significantly limited by the use of thin sulfur electrodes, flooded electrolytes and Li metal degradation. Here we propose a cathode design concept to achieve good Li–S pouch cell performances. The cathode is composed of uniformly embedded ZnS nanoparticles and Co–N–C single-atom catalyst to form double-end binding sites inside a highly oriented macroporous host, which can effectively immobilize and catalytically convert polysulfide intermediates during cycling, thus eliminating the shuttle effect and lithium metal corrosion. The ordered macropores enhance ionic transport under high sulfur loading by forming sufficient triple-phase boundaries between catalyst, conductive support and electrolyte. This design prevents the formation of inactive sulfur (dead sulfur). Our cathode structure shows improved performances in a pouch cell configuration under high sulfur loading and lean electrolyte operation. A 1-A-h-level pouch cell with only 100% lithium excess can deliver a cell specific energy of >300 W h kg−1 with a Coulombic efficiency >95% for 80 cycles. The shuttling effect in Li–S batteries can be drastically suppressed by using a single-atom Co catalyst and polar ZnS nanoparticles embedded in a macroporous conductive matrix as a cathode. Using this strategy, Li–S pouch cells show stable cycling and high energy performances.

TL;DR: In this paper, a graphitic carbon nitride supported Fe single-atom catalyst (Fe1 /CN) containing highly uniform Fe-N4 active sites with a high Fe loading of 11.2 wt % achieves generation of 100 % 1 O2 by activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS).
Abstract: Singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) is an excellent active species for the selective degradation of organic pollutions. However, it is difficult to achieve high efficiency and selectivity for the generation of 1 O2 . In this work, we develop a graphitic carbon nitride supported Fe single-atoms catalyst (Fe1 /CN) containing highly uniform Fe-N4 active sites with a high Fe loading of 11.2 wt %. The Fe1 /CN achieves generation of 100 % 1 O2 by activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS), which shows an ultrahigh p-chlorophenol degradation efficiency. Density functional theory calculations results demonstrate that in contrast to Co and Ni single-atom sites, the Fe-N4 sites in Fe1 /CN adsorb the terminal O of PMS, which can facilitate the oxidization of PMS to form SO5 .- , and thereafter efficiently generate 1 O2 with 100 % selectivity. In addition, the Fe1 /CN exhibits strong resistance to inorganic ions, natural organic matter, and pH value during the degradation of organic pollutants in the presence of PMS. This work develops a novel catalyst for the 100 % selective production of 1 O2 for highly selective and efficient degradation of pollutants.

TL;DR: Size-dependent Ag2S nanodots with well-defined nanostructure with ideal resistance to photobleaching, effective cellular uptake, preferable tumor accumulation, and in vivo elimination are reported, facilitating NIR-II fluorescence/photoacoustics imaging with both ultrasensitivity and microscopic spatial resolution and simultaneous photothermal tumor ablation.
Abstract: Ag2S nanoparticles are increasingly important in biomedicine, such as in cancer imaging. However, there has been only limited success in the exploration of theranostic Ag2S nanoparticles for photoinduced cancer imaging and simultaneous therapy. Here we report size-dependent Ag2S nanodots (NDs) with well-defined nanostructure as a theranostic agent for multimodal imaging and simultaneous photothermal therapy. The NDs are precisely synthesized through carefully controlled growth of Ag2S in hollow human serum albumin nanocages. These NDs produce effective fluorescence in second near-infrared (NIR-II) region, distinct photoacoustic intensity, and good photothermal conversion in a size-dependent manner under light irradiation, thereby generating sufficient in vivo fluorescence and photoacoustic signals as well as potent hyperthermia at tumors. Moreover, Ag2S NDs possess ideal resistance to photobleaching, effective cellular uptake, preferable tumor accumulation, and in vivo elimination, thus facilitating NIR-I...
