Two-dimensional(2D) carbon-based nano-materials are becoming more and more popular in heterogeneous catalysis due to their cost-effective and multi-scale tunability as single-atom catalysis(SACs) substrates. In this paper, by using first-principles calculation, we designed and demonstrated a novel macropore T-carbon [110](TC) monolayer as 2D electrocatalyst substrate for HER/OER/ORR, and the synergistic modification of the transition metal and nonmetal atoms(TM-X) were investigated to enhance the multifunctional electrocatalytic performance. We screened out the Co embedded in N-doped TC(Co3@N-TC) from 30 TM@X-TC monolayers as a trifunctional electrocatalysts, which exhibits superior performance for HER/ORR/OER on both thermodynamic and kinetic scales, and with excellent thermal and electrochemical stability. Then, the TC monolayer is naturally macropore with a diameter of 5.36 A and exhibits excellent adsorption capacity for the intermediates and products of the redox reactions. Moreover, we revealed the origin of the electrocatalytic activity using the crystal orbital Hamilton population(COHP) and the molecular orbitals(MOs). The d orbital of Co3@N-TC is significantly hybridized with the p orbital of the intermediates, so that the lone electrons initially occupied in the antibonding state pair up and occupy the downward bonding state, allowing *OH to be appropriately adsorbed onto the TC monolayer. This work not only demonstrates that the TM@X-TC monolayer is a superior synergistic trifunctional electrocatalyst, but also reveals a macropore monolayer material with potential applications in electrocatalysis.展开更多

High-energy purequartic solitons(PQSs) have gradually become a hotspot in recent years. Herein, we numerically study the influence of the gain bandwidth, saturation power, small-signal gain, and output coupler on PQS dynamics in passively mode-locked fiber lasers. The results show that the above four parameters can affect PQS dynamics. Pulsating PQSs occur as we alter the other three parameters when the gain bandwidth is 50 nm. Meanwhile, PQSs evolve from pulsating to erupting and then to splitting as the other three parameters are altered when the gain bandwidth is 10 nm, which can be attributed to the existence of the spectral filtering effect and intra-cavity fourth-order dispersion. These findings provide new insights into PQS dynamics in passively mode-locked fiber lasers.展开更多

Analysis indicates that almost all the aluminum impurities in the titanium sponge are inherited from the magnesium used to reduce titanium tetrachloride. However, it remains elusive for decades why magnesium produced through the silicothermic reduction method contains a high content of aluminum impurities with large fluctuations. By recourse to thermodynamic calculations and comparative experiments, we demonstrate that fluorite, a material used as a catalyst in the silicothermic reduction method to produce magnesium, is the chief culprit for the pest aluminum and propose a mechanism to rationalize the observed phenomena. Our findings indicate that one practical way to produce qualified magnesium for the production of high-purity titanium is to abandon fluorite during the production of magnesium with the silicothermic reduction method.展开更多
