As a key structural parameter, phase depicts the arrangement of atoms in materials.
Normally, a nanomaterial exists in its thermodynamically stable crystal phase. With the …

In the past decades, great strides have been made in the synthesis of hybrid nanocrystals
(HNCs) consisting of two or more disparate subunits (such as metals and/or …

Efficient and durable electrocatalysts toward alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) are
of great significance for the widespread application of anion‐exchange membrane water …

Integrating multiple materials in arbitrary arrangements within nanoparticles is a prerequisite
for advancing many applications. Strategies to synthesize heterostructured nanoparticles …

The utilization of hydrogen (H2) as a fuel source is hindered by the limited infrastructure and
storage requirements. In contrast, ammonia (NH3) offers a promising solution as a hydrogen …

Here, we report a simple aptamer-based toxoid test with both fluorescence and binary visual
readouts. This test is established based on our recent finding that CdTe quantum dots could …

The last 5 years have witnessed rapid progress in the field of hybrid nanostructures toward
enhanced optical and electronic properties. On this topic, we focus on the relevant progress …

A fundamental precept of chemistry is that properties are manifestations of the elements
present and their arrangement in space. Controlling the arrangement of atoms in …

Copper selenides are an important family of materials with applications in catalysis,
plasmonics, photovoltaics, and thermoelectrics. Despite being a binary material system, the …

Ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) materials, including both layered and nonlayered structures
show promise as electrocatalysts. Their catalytic performance is limited by their natural …
