    Quasi-two-dimensional(2D) perovskite(organic-inorganic hybrid) has attracted enormous attention in solar cells due to its excellent stability, crystallinity and photoelectric properties. In contrast to the 3D perovskite, the unique layered crystal structure endows some extraordinary properties of quasi-2D perovskites, which is due to the intercalation of organic spacer cations(OSC) into the 3D framework. (1) The multilayer quantum wells create the anisotropic photoelectric properties. (2) The spacer cations change the environment of the clusters in precursor solution to achieve high-quality perovskite films. (3) The hydrophobic spacer layers with inhibition of ion migration realize excellent stability of quasi-2D perovskites films. However, the photoelectric transformation efficiency(PCE) of quasi-2D perovskite solar cells(PSCs) is still far less than that of 3D counterparts due to quantum confinement effect, dielectric confinement effect, non-preferred crystal orientation and random phase distributions of quasi-2D perovskites films. In order to solve these problems and achieve the balance between the PCE and stability of solar cells, it should be better understood of 2D perovskites from the crystal structures, photoelectric properties as well as the device performances. In this paper, we first introduce the crystal types including the (100), (110) and (111)-oriented structures. On this basis, the preferred orientations(out-of-plane and in-plane) and uniform/graded phase distributions are overviewed for the most studied (100)-oriented structure. To the understanding of the nucleation and crystallization processes of quasi-2D perovskite films, we then discuss the preparation methods from the perspective of one-step and two-step film-casting, respectively. Furthermore, we summarized the extensive researches on quasi-2D-PSCs and analyzed a series of significant results. Meanwhile, we highlight internal mechanism of quasi-2D perovskites stability and summarize superior long-term stability of quasi-2D perovskites and 3D/2D heterojunction perovskites. Last but not least, we further looked ahead to research trends in the future, such as: phase purity of 2D perovskites thin films, graded phase 2D perovskites thin films, modified interface, design of new organic spacer cations, 3D/2D heterojunction perovskites.

    LI Huiyang, ZHU Siying, LI Sha, ZHANG Qiaobao, ZHAO Jinbao, ZHANG Li
    Chem. J. Chinese Universities    2021, 42 (8): 2342-2358.   DOI: 10.7503/cjcu20210177

    The popularity of electric vehicles and various portable electronic devices has led to higher demands on battery energy density. Silicon suboxide(SiOx, 0<x≤2) shows high specific capacity and low Li-ion insertion potential, and the volume expansion effect is significantly lower than that of pure silicon anode, and therefore is considered to be one of the ideal alternatives to traditional graphite anode materials. However, the solid electrolyte interphase(SEI) and a large number of irreversible products are formed during the first lithiation/delithiation cycle, resulting in low Coulombic efficiency, which seriously hinders the practical application of SiOx anodes. On the basis of SiOx structure, this review systematically explained the lithium storage mechanism of SiOx anode and the reason for the low first-cycle efficiency. Further, strategies of improving the first Coulombic efficiency of SiOx anode in recent years is summarized in detail. Finally, the future direction of improving the first-cycle efficiency of SiOx anode is also forecasted.

    Biomass-derived alcohol/aldehydes are important platform compounds, which can be further converted into high-value-added chemicals or fuels through catalytic oxidation. Photoelectrocatalytic(PEC) technology driven by solar energy is one of the most green and efficient ways to realize the oxidation of biomass-derived alcohol/aldehydes. Compared with the traditional PEC water splitting process to produce both O2 and H2, the use of PEC oxidation of biomass-derived alcohol/aldehydes instead of anodic oxygen evolution process can not only increase the value of anodic products, but also improve the conversion efficiency of solar energy to hydrogen, which is of great significance for H2 production and high value chemical synthesis. In this review, we introduce the reaction mechanism of PEC H2 production coupled with biomass-derived alcohol/aldehyde oxidation, and summarize the recent progress in PEC oxidation of biomass-derived alcohol/aldehydes. Moreover, the opportunities and challenges in this field are also prospected.

    LI Weiqing, JIN Lei, YANG Jiaqiang, Wang Zhaoyun, YANG Fangzu, ZHAN Dongping, TIAN Zhongqun
    Chem. J. Chinese Universities    2021, 42 (9): 2919-2925.   DOI: 10.7503/cjcu20210225

    Electronic copper electroplating has important applications in the advanced electronic manufactu-ring industry. In this work, the effects of the additive XNS(a mixture of polyamine and nitrogen-containing compounds) on the coating structure in the novel, weakly alkaline and citrate-based multi-coordination system for copper electronic electroplating with low concentration of main salts(10 g/L copper sulfate) was investiga-ted. The constant current deposition experiments indicate that the additive XNS can increase the current efficiency of copper electrodeposition, which achieves 95.4% at a current density of 2.0 A/dm2 and increases by 17.5% comparing to the electroplating system without XNS. Electrochemical experiments prove that the additive XNS can change the cathodic reduction of Cu(Ⅱ) cations, i.e., in presence of XNS which is a one-step two-electron process[Cu(Ⅱ)+2e→Cu], and in absence of XNS which is a two-step one-electron processes [Cu(Ⅱ)+e→Cu(Ⅰ)+e→Cu], and improves the reduction current density of Cu electrodeposition. Although additive XNS can accelerate copper electrodeposition rate, the coating surface of Cu becomes much finer and neater. At the current density of 2.0 A/dm2, the crystal structure of copper coating is reconstructed from Cu(111) facet to Cu(200) facet, presenting highly preferred crystal orientation in the presence of XNS.

    Carbon dioxide(CO2) is not only a well-known greenhouse gas but also one important C1 resource. It is very important to realize organic transformations with CO2 to generate high value-added compounds. Given the importance of carboxylic acid and derivatives which are widely found in natural products, medicines, daily chemicals and industrial raw materials, the synthesis of carboxylic acids with CO2 has become an important research direction. On the other hand, high temperature and other harsh conditions are always required in this field due to the low reactivity of CO2. To solve such problems, visible light is used as an clean energy source to drive the effective transformations of CO2, which has been developed significantly in last few years. This review mainly introduced and summarized the visible light-driven carboxylation with CO2 in recent years, and classified them according to types of important chemical raw materials, such as alkenes, alkynes, aldehydes and ketones, imines organo(pseudo)halides and others. The characteristics and mechanisms of each reaction were discussed. In addition, this review also provided perspective to this emerging field.

    Electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction(e-CO2RR) is a promising and facile method to achieve carbon-neutral economy and sustainable development due its simple device and capability to consume renewable energy to produce high value-added chemicals. However, e-CO2RR suffers from low selectivity and low current density because of its sluggish kinetics and the weak activity of the catalysts. Hence, single-atom catalysts are one of the most ideal materials for e-CO2RR by virtue of its maximum atom utilization and well-defined catalytic active sites. Single atoms derived from transition metal and main group metal are comprehensively reviewed. Heteroatom coordination, dual-atom site, metal-support interactions, spatial confinement and molecular bridging to tailor the microenvironment of single atom to realize a better catalytic performance are also included. Single-atom catalysts extremely accelerate electrocatalytic CO2 reduction kinetics, which is ascribed to its unique electronic structure and enormous intrinsic highly active sites, indicating its state-of-the-art merits and broad application prospects. Reductive products that involve multi-electrons are desired for single-atom catalysts. Finally, research trends and hotspots in this field are also discussed.

    The massive consumption of fossil fuels and the gradual deterioration of the environment urgently require the development and exploration of effective energy conversion and storage technologies. Electrochemistry is the basis and key of all kinds of energy storage and conversion devices. The design and synthesis of non-noble metal-based and non metal-based catalysts with high catalytic activity are obviously the best choice. The metal organic framework (MOF) derived carbon-based materials have the characteristics of large specific surface area and high porosity, which can selectively confine metals of different types. Therefore, MOF has a good confinement effect when used as a catalyst, which is beneficial to improve the activity and stability of the catalyst. In this review, the confinement effects of MOF-derived materials in catalytic reactions are clarified, and the latest progresses of MOF-derived carbon-based materials in oxidation reduction reaction(ORR) and CO2 reduction reaction(CO2RR) electrocatalysis are introduced, and the structure-activity relationships of MOF-derived carbon-based materials in electrocatalytic reactions are revealed. Finally, the challenges and opportunities faced by MOF-confined carbon-based materials in ORR and CO2RR electrocatalysis are discussed, as well as the possible solutions in the future.

    The utilization of fossil fuels has enabled an unprecedented era of prosperity and advancement of well- being for human society. However, the associated increase in anthropogenic carbon dioxide(CO2) emissions can negatively affect global temperatures and ocean acidity. Moreover, as a limited resource, the depletion of fossil fuels will ultimately force one to seek alternative carbon sources to maintain a sustainable development. Using green hydrogen obtained from the water electrolysis process carried out using electricity generated from renewable sources, the hydrogenation of captured CO2 to methanol not only efficiently utilizes the excess effluent CO2 from industrial gaseous waste, but also produces a clean and renewable chemical feedstock of methanol, the core of which is to develop highly efficient and stable catalysts for methanol formation. In this review, we discuss the reaction mechanism and structure-activity relationship of common heterogeneous catalysts for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol which has attracted great attention in the past decades. We also review the latest development in the design and synthesis of heterogeneous catalysts(Cu-based catalyst, noble metal catalyst and bimetallic catalysts, oxide catalyst and other novel catalysts) for methanol synthesis through the direct hydrogenation of CO2. Moreover, the opportunities and challenges in this field are also prospected.

    Silicon(Si) has high theoretical capacity, low voltage platform and abundant natural resources, which has the potential to become the next generation high energy density lithium ion batteries anode material. However, Si has low inherent conductivity and great volume change in the cycle process, which is different from graphite and should not be directly used as an anode material. Therefore, many modification strategies have been developed to improve or adapt to Si based anode materials from dimension structure, composites, binders and electrolytes, so as to meet the requirements of commercialization. In this paper, the research pro-gress of Si based anode materials in recent years was reviewed, the design elements of different aspects were summarized, and the performance of representative materials was introduced. Finally, the problems faced by Si based anode materials were briefly analyzed, and the research prospect of Si based anode materials as lithium ion batteries was forecasted.
