Amorphous high-entropy phosphide nanosheets with multi-atom catalytic sites for efficient oxygen evolution by Li, Xiumin, Xie, Zhengkun, Roy, Soumyabrata, Gao, Longqing, Liu, Jie, Zhao, Bing, Wei, Ran, Tang, Bijun, Wang, Hongyan, Ajayan, Pulickel, Tang, Keyong

“…Furthermore, Fe and Ni/Co sites prefer to stabilize the HO* and HOO* intermediates respectively, conducive to breaking their scaling relation of Gibbs free energy during OER. Owing to its fine-tuned composition and the synergistic effect of multiple active sites, the FeCoNiCuYP/C electrocatalyst demonstrates superior OER performance in alkaline solutions, requiring a mere 316 mV overpotential to yield 100 mA cm-2 current density with excellent stability. …”

Multi-species rotational grazing of small ruminants regenerates undergrowth vegetation while controlling weeds in the oil palm silvopastoral system by Tohiran, Kamil Azmi, Nobilly, Frisco, Zulkifli, Raja, Yahya, Muhammad Syafiq, Norhisham, Ahmad Razi, Rasyidi, Md Zainal, Azhar, Badrul

“…Hence, we concluded managing undergrowth vegetation in oil palm plantations using multi-species livestock grazing is a practical approach, and it should be fine-tuned for example by choosing livestock species based on the targeted objectives and the grazing sequence that will be practiced to regenerate the oil palm silvopastoral system. …”

Optical study of excitonic complexes in transition metal dichalcogenides monolayers by Bao, Di

“…The encapsulation of WS2 monolayer with hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) greatly reduces the PL linewidth and enables the observation of fine structures of the lower-energy features. By electrostatic doping to the hBN-encapsulated WS2 monolayer, we observe a Fermi edge singularity-like transition in the reflectance and PL spectra, reflecting distinct interactions between excitons and Fermi electrons under different electron densities. …”
