Oilseeds are mostly grown in marginal lands with inadequate irrigation facilities (only 10% is irrigated) as a result yields tend to be low leading to a widening gap between domestic production of vegetable oil and demand. Production growth in the early eighties was slow due to insufficient technologies and the turning point was the year 1985-86. Since then, oilseeds production in the country has increased due to implementation of technology mission. The present study was attempted to examine the growth performance of groundnut in the major states of India and assess the immediate and sustained effects of oilseeds mission on groundnut production in order to identify the potentials for future expansion of area and scaling -up the yield of groundnut-based production system. Growth and quasi experimental time series analyses were employed to assess the growth performance and intervention’s effects (oilseeds mission) using time series data. Increase in groundnut production has been contributed mainly by increase in productivity. Though the maximum productivity growth was 6.24% per annum in India, overall growth rate in yield was 2.28 % per annum due to yearly aberrations indicating the high instability. Groundnut yield grew by 3.84, 3.06 and 2.16 % per annum respectively in Rajasthan, Madya Pradesh and Tamil Nadu for the overall period (1992-93 and 2020-21). However, these states witnessed production shortfalls and production fell by 0.94, 6.42 and 2.05 % per annum, respectively. Except Gujarat the other major states also exhibited negative growth in production and the rate of drop was higher in the Uttara Pradesh (7.91%) followed by Madhya Pradesh (6.42%), Maharashtra (4.94%), Andhra Pradesh (3.69%) and Karnataka (3.03%). Groundnut production in India also fell by 2.13 % per annum mainly due to fall in area and marginal growth in yield. The estimated yield increase was 450 kg/ha in India, which is higher by 48 % after the intervention. The estimated positive and significant coefficient of interrupted time series for India (50.36) reveal that the oilseeds mission has created sustained effects as a result there was a yield improvement. Sustained effects of intervention are noticed in most of the states. Sustaining the productivity in those states with high yield potential and improving the productivity in other major states by prioritizing and disseminating the seeds of suitable varieties and production technologies are vital as there is lackluster response from the farmers in adoption of varieties and technologies.

In the department of Daloa in Côte d'Ivoire, many coffee and cocoa plantations that have fallen into decline and been left fallow are in the process of being reclaimed by their former or new users. In order to prevent the failure of the planned new crops, this study was initiated to determine how the soils under these fallows function, which is essential for developing sustainable management strategies for them. Thus, seven fallows older than ten years were identified. In each of them, a 10,000 m2 plot was delimited and three soil pits were set up. In one pit, three soil samples were taken. After analysis of these samples in the laboratory, correlations and balances between certain physico-chemical soil components were calculated. The results show that organic matter contributes in some places to the constitution of the CEC (r ˃ 0.70) and thus participates in the soil's function as a reservoir of nutrients. On the other hand, when the soils are leached, the organic matter binds to the sand remaining in the profile and, because of its coarse particles, it hardly contributes to the constitution of the CEC (r = -0.70). However, whatever the case, the stability balances between the soil nutrients are globally favourable due to the long duration of the fallows (Ca/Mg close to 2 while K/Mg, (Ca+K)/Mg and C/N varied from 0.10 to 0.50, 15 to 30 and 9 to 12, respectively). Pending consideration of the functioning of the biological component of the soils studied, organic matter appears to be the most determining factor in their overall functioning.

AbstractV3O7·H2O (VO) is an attractive cathode material for high‐capacity aqueous Zn‐ion batteries (AZIBs), but it is limited by slow ion mobility and low working platform voltage. Here, a 1,3‐propane diamine (DP)‐intercalated VO with nanoribbon‐assembled thorn flower‐like structure is fabricated by a facile hydrothermal method, noted as VO‐DP. The study shows that the zinc ion diffusion coefficient in VO‐DP (3.1 × 10−8 cm−2 s−1) is five orders of magnitude higher than that of a pure VO counterpart. Auxiliary density functional theory simulation shows that the embedded energy of zinc ions in VO‐DP significantly decreases from 0.24 to −2.5 eV, thus leading to excellent diffusion kinetics and superior rate performance. Benefiting from these unique properties, AZIBs composed of VO‐DP cathodes exhibit high operating voltage (0.89 V), remarkable capacities of 473 mA h g−1 at 0.05 A g−1, excellent rate capability (144 mA h g−1 at 10 A g−1) and long‐term cycling performance (73% capacity retention over 15 000 cycles at 10 A g−1).

AbstractThe formation of lithiophobic inorganic solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) on Li anode and cathode electrolyte interphase (CEI) on the cathode is beneficial for high‐voltage Li metal batteries. However, in most liquid electrolytes, the decomposition of organic solvents inevitably forms organic components in the SEI and CEI. In addition, organic solvents often pose substantial safety risks due to their high volatility and flammability. Herein, an organic‐solvent‐free eutectic electrolyte based on low‐melting alkali perfluorinated‐sulfonimide salts is reported. The exclusive anion reduction on Li anode surface results in an inorganic, LiF‐rich SEI with high capability to suppress Li dendrite, as evidenced by the high Li plating/stripping CE of 99.4% at 0.5 mA cm−2 and 1.0 mAh cm−2, and 200‐cycle lifespan of full LiNi0.8Co0.15Al0.05O2 (2.0 mAh cm−2) || Li (20 µm) cells at 80 °C. The proposed eutectic electrolyte is promising for ultrasafe and high‐energy Li metal batteries.

AbstractInspired by the functional properties of ion defect induction and charge compensation in defect engineering, these methods are expected to be an effective strategy to solve the constraints of Li4Ti5O12 (LTO) inherent conductivity and diffusion dynamics, and further improve battery rate performance. The oxygen vacancy (OV) content in LTO can be controlled quantitatively by high‐pressure induction using the high‐pressure and high‐temperature (HPHT) method. In addition, the relationship between the electrochemical properties and OV is further explored. The theoretical calculations indicate that the OV defects cause the electrons to delocalize into the conduction band of the LTO, and thus fundamentally improve the intrinsic conductivity. In particular, the high‐pressure quenching strategy of HPHT causes LTO to instantly produce crack holes with massive crystalline layers, which can be regarded as storage for the electrolyte to facilitate ion diffusion. The fabricated LTO anodes containing OVs compensate for the limitation of the poor rate performance with a capacity of 176 mAh g−1 at 20 C. Pressure‐induced OV defects not only open up a new perspective in the field of lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs), but also provide a certain degree of freedom for the functional design characteristics of defect engineering.

AbstractSingle‐atom (SA) catalysts exhibit high activity in various reactions because there are no inactive internal atoms. Accordingly, SA cocatalysts are also an active research fields regarding photocatalytic hydrogen (H2) evolution which can be generated by abundant water and sunlight. Herein, it is investigated whether 10 transition metal elements can work as an SA on graphitic carbon nitride (g‐C3N4; i.e., gCN), a promising visible‐light‐driven photocatalyst. A method is established to prepare SA‐loaded gCN at high loadings (weight of ≈3 wt.% for Cu, Ni, Pd, Pt, Rh, and Ru) by modulating the photoreduction power. Regarding Au and Ag, SAs are formed with difficulty without aggregation because of the low binding energy between gCN and the SA. An evaluation of the photocatalytic H2‐evolution activity of the prepared metal SA‐loaded gCN reveals that Pd, Pt, and Rh SA‐loaded gCN exhibits relatively high H2‐evolution efficiency per SA. Transient absorption spectroscopy and electrochemical measurements reveal the following: i) Pd SA‐loaded gCN exhibits a particularly suitable electronic structure for proton adsorption and ii) therefore they exhibit the highest H2‐evolution efficiency per SA than other metal SA‐loaded gCN. Finally, the 8.6 times higher H2‐evolution rate per active site of Pd SA is achieved than that of Pd‐nanoparticles cocatalyst.

AbstractLi7La3Zr2O12 (LLZO) solid electrolyte (SE) is a potential candidate for developing safe and economically all‐solid‐state batteries (ASSBs) owing to its high Li‐ion conductivity and electrochemical stability against lithium anodes. However, poor stability and significant reduction in conductivity when exposed to air, limit its practical use. Herein, a unique two‐step sintering approach is designed to tailor the microstructure of LLZO that can withstand extended air exposure. The record high Li‐ion conductivity (≈1.7 mS cm−1 at 25 °C) is obtained for coarse‐grained Li6.25Ga0.25La3Zr2O12 (GLLZO) samples, whereas fine‐grained samples exhibit a relatively lower yet still substantial conductivity (≈1.3 mS cm−1). However, coarse‐grained samples are vulnerable to atmospheric attacks, forming larger Li2CO3 on the surface, leading to spontaneous cracking and significantly reduced conductivity (≈4 order). Despite these limitations, coarse‐grained samples can still be good SE for ASSBs under certain conditions. Interestingly, fine‐grained samples maintain structural integrity and Li‐ion conductivity even after prolonged exposure to air. The differing transport and stability behaviors are attributed to variations in the bulk compositions originating from distinct sintering mechanisms. These findings represent a significant step toward achieving air‐stable, highly conductive solid electrolytes with normal grain growth that will reduce interfacial resistance and improve the power density and cyclability of next‐generation ASSBs.
Sequential Vacuum Evaporated Copper Metal Halides for Scalable, Flexible, and Dynamic X‐Ray Detection

Published: May 2023

AbstractCopper metal halides have emerged as a strong contender in the scintillator field due to the self‐trapped excitons (STEs) mechanism. However, their development has been hindered by the preparation process. Single crystals have long growth cycles and cannot achieve large areas and flexibility. Quantum dots have a low yield and can easily cause chemical pollution, and the thickness of films prepared by the spin coating cannot be controlled. To address these challenges, a new method for preparing Cs3Cu2Cl5 using sequential vacuum evaporation is developed. This allows successful preparation of large‐area (≈100 cm2) and flexible films. The STEs mechanism of Cs3Cu2Cl5 gives it unique properties such as a large Stokes shift that reduces self‐absorption effects, and a wide full width at half‐maximum that improves coupling with photodiodes. Therefore, Cs3Cu2Cl5 is applied to X‐ray imaging with a light yield of ≈30 000 photons MeV−1, a spatial resolution of over 10 lp mm−1, and a low detection limit below 0.8 µGyair s−1. In addition, the flexible Cs3Cu2Cl5 film enables effective dynamic imaging and clear imaging on non‐planar objects. It also exhibits good resistance to harsh environments, maintaining good imaging performance after 150 days. It is believed that sequential vacuum evaporation provides an important idea for preparing scintillators.

Published: May 2023

AbstractQuasi‐2D perovskites, as one of the promising materials applied in perovskite light‐emitting diodes (PeLEDs), have attracted great attention for their superior semiconductor properties. The inherent multiquantum well structure can induce a strong confinement effect, which is especially suitable for blue emission. However, compared to their green counterparts, blue emitters constructed from quasi‐2D perovskites are more sensitive to n domain distribution (where n represents the number of PbX6 inorganic layers). Suffering from inefficient domain distribution management, blue PeLEDs now face a variety of negative issues, including color instability, multipeak emission, and poor fluorescence yield. In this review, the development of blue PeLEDs and the optical properties of quasi‐2D perovskites are overviewed. Then, a classification and summary of strategies for domain distribution management are proposed. Finally, the challenges and potential directions of domain distribution management in quasi‐2D perovskites are summarized. This review is expected to provide a comprehensive perspective and reference on domain distribution management toward efficient blue quasi‐2D PeLEDs.

AbstractInformation‐processing devices are the core components of modern electronics. Integrating them into textiles is the indispensable demand for electronic textiles to form close‐loop functional systems. Memristors with crossbar configuration are regarded as promising building blocks to design woven information‐processing devices that seamlessly unify with textiles. However, the memristors always suffer from severe temporal and spatial variations due to the random growth of conductive filaments during filamentary switching processes. Here, inspired by the ion nanochannels across synaptic membranes, a highly reliable textile‐type memristor made of Pt/CuZnS memristive fiber with aligned nanochannels, showing small set voltage variation (<5.6%) under ultralow set voltage (≈0.089 V), high on/off ratio (≈106), and low power consumption (0.1 nW), is reported. Experimental evidence indicate that nanochannels with abundant active S defects can anchor silver ions and confine their migrations to form orderly and efficient conductive filaments. Such memristive performances enable the resultant textile‐type memristor array to have high device‐to‐device uniformity and process complex physiological data like brainwave signals with high recognition accuracy (95%). The textile‐type memristor arrays are mechanically durable to withstand hundreds of bending and sliding deformations, and seamlessly unified with sensing, power‐supplying, and displaying textiles/fibers to form all‐textile integrated electronic systems for new generation human‐machine interactions.

AbstractExposing active sites and optimizing their binding strength to reaction intermediates are two essential strategies to significantly improve the catalytic performance of 2D materials. However, pursuing an efficient way to achieve these goals simultaneously remains a considerable challenge. Here, using 2D PtTe2 van der Waals material with a well‐defined crystal structure and atomically thin thickness as a model catalyst, it is observed that a moderate calcination strategy can promote the structural transformation of 2D crystal PtTe2 nanosheets (c‐PtTe2 NSs) into oxygen‐doped 2D amorphous PtTe2 NSs (a‐PtTe2 NSs). The experimental and theoretical investigations cooperatively reveal that oxygen dopants can break the inherent Pt‐Te covalent bond in c‐PtTe2 NSs, thereby triggering the reconfiguration of interlayer Pt atoms and exposing them thoroughly. Meanwhile, the structural transformation can effectively tailor the electronic properties (e.g., the density of state near the Fermi level, d‐band center, and conductivity) of Pt active sites via the hybridization of Pt 5d orbitals and O 2p orbitals. As a result, a‐PtTe2 NSs with large amounts of exposed Pt active sites and optimized binding strength to hydrogen intermediates exhibit excellent activity and stability in hydrogen evolution reaction.
