This study investigates the stereochemistry and electronic structure of two compounds, XeO₃E and SeOF₂E, both conforming to the general formula MX₃E (M = Xe⁶⁺, Se⁴⁺) and featuring ns² lone pairs (E). These orthorhombic crystals were selected to analyze the steric role of ME and the influence of lone pairs on Fluorine and Oxygen atoms. Detailed stereochemical analyses were performed using density functional theory (DFT) combined with two- and three-dimensional Electron Localization Function (ELF) mappings. The resulting metrics indicate that the ns² radii of Xe (0.88 Å) and Se (0.85 Å) are comparable to first-period atoms, highlighting the crucial steric effect of these lone pairs on molecular shape and crystal packing. Fluorine lone pairs form electronic tori aligned along the M − F bonds, whereas oxygen lone pairs appear as twin maxima with versatile opening angles ranging from ∼100° to ∼160°, allowing flexible network adjustments. Site-projected density of states (DOS) confirm that both compounds are insulating, with energy gaps reflecting the separation between bonding and nonbonding valence states, the latter being responsible for lone pair development and their influence on the crystal structure.

本研究研究了符合MX3E （M = Xe6+, Se4+）通式并具有ns2孤对(E)的两种化合物XeO3E和SeOF2E的立体化学和电子结构。选择这些正交晶体，分析了ME的空间作用以及孤对对氟原子和氧原子的影响。利用密度泛函理论（DFT）结合二维和三维电子定位函数（ELF）映射进行了详细的立体化学分析。结果表明，Xe （0.88 Å）和Se （0.85 Å）的ns2半径与第一周期原子相当，突出了这些孤对对分子形状和晶体堆积的关键空间效应。氟孤对形成沿M - F键排列的电子环面，而氧孤对则呈现为双最大值，具有从~ 100°到~ 160°的多种开口角度，允许灵活的网络调整。位投影态密度（DOS）证实了这两种化合物都是绝缘的，其能隙反映了成键价态和非成键价态之间的分离，后者负责孤对的形成及其对晶体结构的影响。

High-pressure metastable states are of paramount importance for realizing advanced functional properties, such as high-temperature superconductivity, multiferroics, and Dirac semiconductors. However, their practical applications are often bottlenecked by the high costs and poor yields associated with traditional physical synthesis. Consequently, utilizing chemical approaches to intercept and stabilize these high-pressure (HP) states at ambient pressure on a large scale is essential. In this review, we provide a comprehensive survey of chemical strategies, including geometric effects (chemical doping, solid-solution trapping, topotactic reactions, and epitaxial strain), nanoscale surface-energy effects, spatial confinement, and electrochemical fields that mimic the structural and functional output of physical pressure. Crucially, we propose a redefinition of “chemical pressure” that shifts the focus from macroscopic volumetric equivalence to “functional gene” -the specific local structural motifs (e.g., polyhedral crystal fields and orbital hybridization) that ultimately dictate the performance of materials. We analyze the calibration of this multi-scale chemical pressure and discuss the critical decoupling of electronic and volumetric effects, as exemplified by synergistic and antagonistic trends in superconductors and halide perovskites. Finally, we summarize current challenges of intercepting HP metastable states, including lack of advanced theoretical models and transition from thin-film models to bulk-form manufacture, and offer an outlook on exploring novel states of matter.

高压亚稳态对于实现高温超导性、多铁性和狄拉克半导体等先进功能特性至关重要。然而，它们的实际应用往往受到传统物理合成的高成本和低收率的瓶颈。因此，在环境压力下，利用化学方法拦截和稳定这些高压（HP）状态至关重要。在这篇综述中，我们提供了化学策略的全面调查，包括几何效应（化学掺杂、固溶捕获、拓扑反应和外延应变）、纳米级表面能效应、空间限制和模拟物理压力的结构和功能输出的电化学场。至关重要的是，我们提出了对“化学压力”的重新定义，将焦点从宏观的体积等效转移到“功能基因”——最终决定材料性能的特定局部结构基序（例如多面体晶体场和轨道杂化）。我们分析了这种多尺度化学压力的校准，并讨论了电子和体积效应的临界解耦，例如超导体和卤化物钙钛矿的协同和拮抗趋势。最后，我们总结了当前拦截HP亚稳态的挑战，包括缺乏先进的理论模型和从薄膜模型到体形制造的过渡，并展望了探索新的物质状态。

This article, for the first time, brings both fields together under the “color-to-current” concept and discusses how both fields use the same chemical properties (structure, defect chemistry, and cation coordination) unique to solid-state processes. For pigments, the chemistry and structure of the inorganic oxides determine their color and long-term color stability, thermal stability, and chemical resistance. The same properties also determine the pigments' lightfastness and electrochemical sensing performance. For sensing, the same properties of the oxides also facilitate their use as reliable electrochemical sensors by providing redox mediation, improved electrochemically active surfaces, and the conductive polymer- and vacancy-based charge transport required for improved electrochemical activity. These concepts are demonstrated by Mas Subramanian's Innovations and Axon's pigments. These concepts of using structure to create color for pigments is also applied to sensing materials by using certain (spinel, perovskite, and hexagonal/complex) oxides with mixed valence and defect-dominant frameworks. One primary conclusion is that solid-state synthesis is both a means of setting the final phase of the sensing materials and a means of setting the final phase of the sensing materials. We outline working examples of dual-function design strategies, as well as an innovative perspective, where optical signatures act as a rapid proxy for the electronic/defect tuning, facilitating the exploration of scalable oxides for multifunctional coatings, printable sensor inks, and durable/from robust analytical frameworks.

本文首次在“从颜色到电流”的概念下将这两个领域结合在一起，并讨论了这两个领域如何使用固态工艺特有的相同化学性质（结构、缺陷化学和阳离子配位）。对于颜料来说，无机氧化物的化学性质和结构决定了它们的颜色以及长期的色稳定性、热稳定性和耐化学性。同样的性质也决定了颜料的耐光性和电化学传感性能。在传感方面，氧化物的相同性质也促进了它们作为可靠的电化学传感器的使用，因为它们提供了氧化还原介质、改进的电化学活性表面以及提高电化学活性所需的导电聚合物和基于空位的电荷传输。这些概念在Mas Subramanian的创新和Axon的颜料中得到了证明。这些利用结构为颜料创造颜色的概念也应用于传感材料，通过使用某些具有混合价态和缺陷优势框架的氧化物（尖晶石、钙钛矿和六方/复合体）。一个主要结论是，固态合成既是设置传感材料的最终相的手段，也是设置传感材料的最终相的手段。我们概述了双功能设计策略的工作示例，以及一个创新的视角，其中光学特征作为电子/缺陷调谐的快速代理，促进了多功能涂层的可扩展氧化物的探索，可打印的传感器油墨，以及耐用/从强大的分析框架。

Introduction to high-temperature superconductivity for solid state chemists 固体化学家高温超导导论

Superconductivity is one of the most amazing properties that metallic conductors exhibit. Electrical resistance is completely eliminated below the critical temperature (T_c), which is the most important parameter in superconductivity. Since the discovery of copper oxide superconductors 40 years ago, many solid state chemists have made significant contributions to the field by discovering new compounds and producing high-quality samples for physical measurements. However, superconductivity research remains challenging for most solid state chemists because it requires knowledge of complicated solid state physics. This manuscript aims to provide a simple, intuitive introduction to superconductivity using only fundamental physics concepts that solid state chemists are familiar with. The author investigates a wide range of materials and classifies them according to the superconductivity mechanisms that may drive them. Specifically focusing on a series of copper oxide superconductors with the highest T_c at ambient conditions, the remarkable material dependence of T_c and the underlying, unconventional superconductivity mechanism that leads to the high T_c are thoroughly examined. Although our understanding of cuprate superconductivity is still fragmented, the author believes that once the branches and leaves are removed, the story will be fairly simple, similar to the phonon-based superconductivity mechanism revealed by the BCS theory. Furthermore, potential strategies for raising the T_c of cuprates and other superconductors are discussed. The author hopes that this article will pique interest in superconductors in young solid state chemists and encourage them to pursue the discovery of still unknown and unexplored room-temperature superconductors in the future.

超导性是金属导体表现出的最惊人的特性之一。在临界温度（Tc）以下，电阻完全消除，这是超导性中最重要的参数。自从40年前发现氧化铜超导体以来，许多固态化学家通过发现新的化合物和生产用于物理测量的高质量样品，对该领域做出了重大贡献。然而，超导研究对于大多数固体化学家来说仍然具有挑战性，因为它需要复杂的固体物理知识。这份手稿的目的是提供一个简单的，直观的介绍超导只使用基本的物理概念，固态化学家都熟悉。作者研究了广泛的材料，并根据可能驱动它们的超导机制对它们进行了分类。特别关注在环境条件下具有最高Tc的一系列铜氧化物超导体，对Tc的显著材料依赖性以及导致高Tc的潜在非常规超导机制进行了彻底检查。虽然我们对铜超导的理解仍然是碎片化的，但作者认为，一旦把枝叶去掉，故事就会相当简单，类似于BCS理论揭示的声基超导机制。此外，还讨论了提高铜酸盐和其他超导体的Tc的潜在策略。作者希望这篇文章能激起年轻的固体化学家对超导体的兴趣，并鼓励他们在未来继续探索未知的室温超导体。

Currently, developing nanoparticles (NPs) suspension with high transmittance and favorable luminescence performance is a significant research topic in liquid laser field. Herein, the NaGdF₄:4%Nd core NPs and different shell thicknesses of NaGdF₄:4%Nd@NaGdF₄ core-shell NPs were prepared. Excited by 794 nm, the prepared NPs displays intense narrow-band near-infrared emission, originating from the ⁴F_3/2 → ⁴I_11/2 transition of Nd³⁺ ions. The coating of inert shell significantly enhances the luminescent properties of core NPs. Moreover, the prepared NPs were dispersed in C₂Cl₄ solvent, forming the stable and high transmittance NPs suspensions. The investigation of fluorescence lifetime and quantum yield suggest that the NPs suspensions can maintain good luminescence. This work reveals that the title NPs suspension is a potential candidate for liquid laser media.

In this study, the nickel and iron layered double hydroxides cathode with abundant hydrogen vacancies (NiFe-LDH_(v)) was designed and optimized via a two-step electrochemical deposition-activation strategy for aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs). By controlling the Fe/Ni molar ratio, the morphology, chemical bonds, electronic structure, and hydrogen vacancies distributions of NiFe-LDH_(v) can be regulated. The optimized NiFe-LDH_(v)-75 exhibited a high specific capacity of 173.06 mAh g⁻¹ at 1 A g⁻¹, and maintained 89.61% capacity after 3000 cycles at 6 A g⁻¹, demonstrating excellent electrochemical reversibility and structural stability. Electrochemical tests, structural characterization, and theoretical calculations indicate that the NiFe-LDH_(v) exhibits a hybrid energy storage mechanism, including the Zn²⁺ chemical conversion, Zn²⁺ intercalation/deintercalation, and proton-coupled electrochemical transfer. During the cycling process, Ni acts as the main redox active center; while Fe regulates the electronic structure and enhances the M–O bond strength. It is noteworthy that although the contribution of Fe to the specific capacity is limited, its enhancement effect on cycling stability is very significant. Therefore, the synergistic effect of Ni and Fe is crucial for constructing the NiFe-LDH_(v). This study clarifies the key regulatory role of Fe in the structure and electrochemical performance of NiFe-LDH_(v), providing a experimental basis for the rational design of efficient cathode for aqueous zinc-ion batteries.

在本研究中，采用两步电化学沉积-活化策略，设计并优化了具有丰富氢空位的镍铁层状双氢氧化物阴极（NiFe-LDH(v)）。通过控制Fe/Ni摩尔比，可以调控NiFe-LDH(v)的形貌、化学键、电子结构和氢空位分布。优化后的NiFe-LDH(v)-75在1 a g−1下的比容量高达173.06 mAh g−1，在6 a g−1下循环3000次后仍保持89.61%的比容量，表现出优异的电化学可逆性和结构稳定性。电化学测试、结构表征和理论计算表明，NiFe-LDH(v)表现出一种混合储能机制，包括Zn2+化学转化、Zn2+插入/脱嵌和质子耦合电化学转移。在循环过程中，Ni是主要的氧化还原活性中心；Fe调节电子结构，提高M-O键强度。值得注意的是，虽然Fe对比容量的贡献有限，但其对循环稳定性的增强作用非常显著。因此，Ni和Fe的协同效应对于构建nfe - ldh (v)至关重要。本研究阐明了Fe对NiFe-LDH(v)结构和电化学性能的关键调控作用，为合理设计高效锌离子电池正极提供了实验依据。

The discussion involves three fabrication methods: Top-Seeded Solution Growth (TSSG), Traveling-Solvent Floating-Zone (TSFZ), and Top-Seeded Melt Growth (TSMG). Conventional Y₂O₃ crucibles lead to severe Ba–Cu–O liquid loss, while modified crucibles, such as Fe–Y₂O₃ and Ca–ZrO₂ reduce wettability, allowing stable growth of large, doped crystals. In TSFZ processes, modified precursor rods (Y₂O₃+Ba₂Cu₃O_y) with low wettability effectively suppress liquid migration and stabilize the molten zone, facilitating Y123 crystal growth. For TSMG approach, the thermal stability of REBCO film seeds correlates with melt wettability, with compositional modifications such as Ba-rich melts or buffer layers optimizing interfacial energy to enhance seed performance. These insights into tailored wettability provide practical guidelines for optimizing REBCO crystals and offer transferable principles for other advanced materials.

本文系统探讨了润湿性在REBa2Cu3O7-x （REBCO）超导体结晶过程中的关键作用，重点介绍了润湿性对晶体生长、结构质量和超导性能的影响。讨论了三种制备方法：顶部种子溶液生长（TSSG），流动溶剂漂浮区（TSFZ）和顶部种子熔体生长（TSMG）。传统的Y2O3坩埚导致严重的Ba-Cu-O液体损失，而改性的坩埚，如Fe-Y2O3和Ca-ZrO2，降低了润湿性，允许大的掺杂晶体稳定生长。在TSFZ工艺中，具有低润湿性的改性前驱体棒（Y2O3+Ba2Cu3Oy）有效抑制了液相迁移，稳定了熔融区，有利于Y123晶体的生长。对于TSMG方法，REBCO膜种子的热稳定性与熔体润湿性相关，通过富ba熔体或缓冲层等成分修饰优化界面能来提高种子性能。这些对定制润湿性的见解为优化REBCO晶体提供了实用指南，并为其他先进材料提供了可转移的原则。

The evolving need for eco-friendly and efficient energy storage devices has prompted the exploration of sustainable electrode materials. Biomass-derived porous carbon stands out from traditional carbon materials due to its supercapacitor application advantages, which include natural availability, cost-effectiveness, low carbon superstructure porosity, easy structural modification, and heteroatom content. This review focuses on synthesis and structural performance of biomass-derived porous carbon electrodes, while also highlighting their electrochemical functionality and practical challenges. Recent research shows significant electrochemical performance, including specific capacitance over 300F/g, energy density of 60 Wh/kg in asymmetric configurations, and sustained cycling stability (greater than 90 % after 10,000 cycles). These advances have been offset by critical obstacles including feedstock inconsistency, environmental challenges from chemical activation, limited scalability, lack of measurement standards, and performance benchmarks. This review describes such gaps in detail and proposes green material synthesis, eco-friendly machine learning design, and lifecycle sustainability furthering material performance as primary focal points.

The integration of graphene with diamond holds great promise for all-carbon materials, yet the precise mechanism governing graphene formation on diamond has remained unclear due to the lack of direct experimental evidence. Conventional preparation methods often rely on empirical annealing parameters. In this study, the catalytic transformation from diamond into graphene or graphite (nickel (Ni) as a catalyst) is investigated through in-situ heating transmission electron microscopy (TEM). We demonstrate that the transition proceeds via a metal-induced solid-state mechanism that is driven by Ni catalysis and reaction-diffusion between Ni and carbon (C) atoms at elevated temperatures. Key processes include Ni grain migration and C–Ni interdiffusion. The annealing duration significantly influences the location and number of graphene layers. Notably, prolonged annealing causes the development of graphene on the Ni surface, whereas rapid, short-term annealing results in the formation of graphene at the diamond/Ni interface. Extended high-temperature exposure increases the number of graphene layers, potentially facilitating graphite formation. Ab initio simulations reveal the polymerization pathway of carbon within the Ni(C) solid solution during graphene nucleation. These insights provide valuable guidance for designing application-specific graphene-on-diamond (GOD) structures, promoting the development of advanced carbon-based technologies.

石墨烯与金刚石的结合为全碳材料带来了巨大的希望，但由于缺乏直接的实验证据，石墨烯在金刚石上形成的精确机制仍不清楚。传统的制备方法往往依赖于经验退火参数。本研究通过原位加热透射电子显微镜（TEM）研究了从金刚石到石墨烯或石墨（镍（Ni）作为催化剂）的催化转化。我们证明了这种转变是通过金属诱导的固态机制进行的，该机制是由Ni催化和Ni与碳(C)原子在高温下的反应扩散驱动的。关键过程包括Ni晶粒迁移和C-Ni相互扩散。退火时间显著影响石墨烯层的位置和数量。值得注意的是，长时间的退火导致了Ni表面石墨烯的形成，而快速、短期的退火导致了金刚石/Ni界面石墨烯的形成。长时间的高温暴露增加了石墨烯层的数量，潜在地促进了石墨的形成。从头算模拟揭示了石墨烯成核过程中Ni(C)固溶体中碳的聚合途径。这些见解为设计特定应用的金刚石上石墨烯（GOD）结构提供了有价值的指导，促进了先进碳基技术的发展。
