Abstract Electrochemical nitrite reduction reaction (NO 2 RR) has emerged as a promising alternative approach for ammonia (NH 3 ) production, offering both energy efficiency and environmental sustainability. The rational regulation of active hydrogen (*H) is pivotal NO − ‐to‐NH conversion, yet it remains significant challenge in the context RR. In this study, molybdenum boride (MBene) multilayers are introduced an electronic support to integrate with palladium (Pd) nanoparticles, creating dual catalytic sites that effectively balance adsorption *H *NO , thereby enabling synergistic catalysis Theoretical experimental analyses revealed efficiently generated on Pd subsequently undergoes spillover ‐adsorbed MBene surfaces, facilitating accelerated hydrogenation NH synthesis. Consequently, Pd/MBene catalyst demonstrated exceptional performance, achieving high Faradaic 89%, yield rate 16.9 mg h −1 cat remarkable cycling stability at low applied potential ‐0.3 V versus RHE. Motivated by outstanding RR further utilized cathode construct Zn‐nitrite formaldehyde‐nitrite batteries. These systems functionality simultaneous production electricity generation, highlighting versatile efficient sustainable conversion.

Abstract The electrocatalytic reduction of nitrate (NO 3 RR) is essential for environmental remediation and the nitrogen cycle, yet effects local microenvironment at multiple‐level on catalysis remain largely unclear. This review focuses analyzing impact microenvironmental engineering NO RR from multiscopic. Four aspects are detailed understanding regulation in RR, that are, electronic/molecular interactions (theory simulations), catalysts/reactants (intrinsic activity modulation), solution (anion/cation effect) diffusion (electrocatalytic reactor design). Additionally, relevant situ characterization techniques various material systems (metals, compounds, carbon composites, organic composites) discussed detail can modulate reaction microenvironment. Given potential large‐scale applications, necessary designs also summarized industrial level optimized performance. concludes by outlining future research directions enhancing microenvironment, which will be crucial developing efficient catalysts expanding application microenvironments.

Abstract The pursuit of high‐energy‐density supercapacitors remains challenged by the irreversible surface charge accumulation and sluggish ion dynamics in conventional vanadate cathodes. To address these limitations, a lattice strain engineering strategy is devised through B/Mo co‐doping NiV 2 O 6 , which enables dynamic regulation distribution via atomic‐level stress manipulation. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations demonstrate that high‐valence Mo 6+ induces compressive (–4.4%) to strengthen metal‐oxygen covalency, while low‐electronegativity B 3+ generates tensile (+ 2.9%) enhances hydroxyl affinity. This dichotomy optimizes OH − adsorption energetics 0.28 eV creates gradient oxygen vacancy. cooperative dopant effects significantly enhance charge‐transfer kinetics, endowing B/Mo‐NiV /NF electrode with superior specific capacitance 2850 F g −1 (1 140 C ) at 1 A . In situ Raman reveals reversible vacancy migration along (004) crystallographic planes during cycling, dynamically dissipates structural stress. solid‐state asymmetric supercapacitor delivers 1.8 V operational window remarkable energy/power density (38.35 Wh kg /900 W 75% capacity retention after 10 000 cycles. Practical viability demonstrated powering 20 parallel‐connected light‐emitting diodes (LEDs). work pioneers strain‐mediated paradigm for durable high‐power energy storage.
