RESUMO
Developing bifunctional electrocatalysts based on non-precious metals for overall water splitting, while maintaining high catalytic activity and stability under high current densities, remains challenging. Herein, we successfully constructred trace iron-doped nickel-cobalt selenide with abundant CoSe2 (210)-Ni3Se4 (202) heterointerfaces via a simple one-step selenization reaction. The synthesized Fe-NiCoSex/NCFF (NCFF stands for nickel-cobalt-iron foam) exhibits outstanding hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity with low overpotentials of 328 mV for HER and 345 mV for OER at a high current density of 1000 mA cm-2, while maintaining stability for over 20 h. Additionally, the Fe-NiCoSex/NCFF exhibits the lowest Tafel slope values for both HER (33.7 mV dec-1) and OER (55.92 mV dec-1), indicating the fastest kinetics on its surface. The Fe-NiCoSex/NCFF features uniformly distributed micrometer-sized selenide particles with dense nanowires on their surface, providing a large reactive surface area and abundant active sites. Moreover, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analyses reveal that the catalyst is composed of nickel, cobalt, and iron, forming micrometer-sized particles with both crystalline and amorphous phases, thereby enhancing HER and OER performance under high current density. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations demonstrate that the heterostructure CoSe2 (210)-Ni3Se4 (202), with high electron density and suitable adsorption capacity for reaction intermediates, and low energy barriers for HER (-0.384 eV) and OER (ΔG1st: 0.243 eV, ΔG2nd: 0.376 eV), serves as an active center for both HER and OER.
RESUMO
This research investigates the structural, morphological, and optical properties of Cadmium Selenide (CdSe) thin films deposited via the Chemical Bath Deposition (CBD) Technique, focusing on the impact of Iron (Fe) doping. Using Cadmium Chloride (CdCl2) and Ferrous chloride (FeCl2) as precursor materials, the research investigates how Fe doping affects the structural and photoelectric characteristics of the films. Employing various characterization methods including X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and UV-Vis NIR spectroscopy, the study provides a comprehensive analysis of the films. XRD analysis confirms the formation of a cubic structure with a predominant orientation along the (111) plane, consistent with XRD peaks. Additionally, XRD data reveals the degradation of thin films post-annealing. Crystalline size and strain are determined using the Debye-Scherrer and Wilson formulae, while lattice constant and Size-strain plots are derived from X-ray line broadening. The average crystallite size ranges from 12 to 21 nm. Optical band gaps are found to be 2.25 eV, 2.91 eV, 2.87 eV, and 2.85 eV for the samples. Interestingly, a decrease in crystal size with increasing doping concentration correlates with a reduction in bandgap. This investigation offers valuable insights into the fabrication and characterization of CdSe thin films, particularly highlighting the impact of Fe doping on their structural and optical properties. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the fabrication and characterization of CdSe thin films, emphasizing the importance of precise doping control for tailoring material properties and advancing their applications in photovoltaic and optoelectronic devices.
RESUMO
Cerium-based adsorbents possessed unique advantages of valence variability and abundant oxygen vacancies in hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) adsorption, but high cost and unstable properties restricted their application in Cr(VI) contained wastewater treatment. Herein, a series of bimetallic adsorbents with different cerium/iron ratios (CeFe@C) were prepared by adding inexpensive Fe into Ce-based adsorbents (Ce@C), and the effect of Fe doping on adsorption properties of Ce@C for Cr(VI) was investigated thoroughly. Compared with pristine Ce@C, CeFe@C exhibited excellent removal performance for Cr(VI), and the improved maximum adsorption capacity reached 75.11 mg/g at 25â. Benefiting from Fe doping, CeFe@C had good regeneration property, with only 25 % decrease after five adsorption-desorption cycles. Contents of trivalent cerium (Ce(III)) and oxygen vacancies (Ov) in bimetallic adsorbents were positively correlated with divalent iron (Fe(II)) doping, indicating that the formation of Ce(III) and surface defects on Ce@C could be effectively regulated by Fe doping. Density functional theory (DFT) calculation results further proved that the doped Fe enhanced the electron transfer effectively and lowered the energy barriers of Cr(VI) adsorption onto Ce@C surface, strengthening the reduction and complexation to Cr(VI). This study provides new insights for improving the Cr(VI) removal performance by modified Ce-based adsorbents, and further promotes the utilization potentiality of low-cost and low-toxicity Ce-based adsorbents in Cr(VI)-containing wastewater treatment.
RESUMO
Traditional noble metal oxide, such as RuO2, is considered a benchmark catalyst for acidic oxygen evolution reaction (OER). However, its practical application is limited due to sluggish activity and severe electrochemical corrosion. In this study, Ru-Fe nanoparticles loading on carbon felt (RuFe@CF) is synthesized via an ultrafast Joule heating method as an active and durable OER catalyst in acidic conditions. Remarkably low overpotentials of 188 and 269 mV are achieved at 10 and 100 mA cm-2, respectively, with a robust stability up to 620 h at 10 mA cm-2. When used as an anode in a proton exchange membrane water electrolyzer, the catalyst shows more than 250 h of stability at a water-splitting current of 200 mA cm-2. Experimental characterizations reveal the presence of a Ru-based oxide nanosheath on the surface of the catalyst during OER tests, suggesting a surface reconstruction process that enhances the intrinsic activity and inhibits continuous metal dissolution. Moreover, density functional theory calculations demonstrate that the introduction of Fe into the RuFe@CF catalyst reduces the energy barrier and boosts its activities. This work offers an effective and universal strategy for the development of highly efficient and stable catalysts for acidic water splitting.
RESUMO
Co9S8 has been extensively studied as a promising catalyst for water electrolysis. Doping Co9S8 with Fe improves its oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance by regulating the catalyst self-reconfigurability and enhancing the absorption capacity of OER intermediates. However, the poor alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) properties of Co9S8 limit its application in bifunctional water splitting. Herein, we combined Fe doping and sulfur vacancy engineering to synergistically enhance the bifunctional water-splitting performance of Co9S8. The as-synthesized Co6Fe3S8 catalyst exhibited excellent OER and HER characteristics with low overpotentials of 250 and 84 mV, respectively. It also resulted in the low Tafel slopes of 135 mV dec-1 for the OER and 114 mV dec-1 for the HER. A two-electrode electrolytic cell with Co6Fe3S8 used as both the cathode and anode produced a current density of 10 mA cm-2 at a low voltage of only 1.48 V, maintaining high stability for 100 h. The results of in/ex-situ experiments indicated that the OER process induced electrochemical reconfiguration, forming CoOOH/FeOOH active species on the catalyst surface to enhance its OER performance. Density functional theory (DFT) simulations revealed that Fe doping and the presence of unsaturated coordination metal sites in Co6Fe3S8 promoted H2O and H* adsorption for the HER. The findings of this study can help develop a strategy for designing highly efficient bifunctional water splitting electrocatalysts.
RESUMO
In the quest for sustainable energy solutions, solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) emerges as a key technology for converting CO2 into fuels and valuable chemicals. This work focuses on pure ceramic Fex Sm0.2 Ce0.8 O2- δ (xFe-SDC) as the fuel electrodes, and Sr-free ceria-based ceramic electrodes can be successfully constructed for x ≤ 0.05. The incorporation of Fe into the ceria lattice increases the oxygen vacancy concentration and promotes the formation of catalytic sites crucial for the CO2 reduction reaction (CO2 RR). Density functional theory calculations indicate that Fe enhances electrochemical performance by decreasing the CO2 RR energy barrier and facilitating oxygen ion diffusion. At 800 °C and 1.5 V, single cells with 0.05Fe-SDC cathodes manifest attractive performance, attaining current densities of -1.98 and -2.26 A cm-2 under 50% CO2 /CO and pure CO2 atmospheres, respectively. These results suggest the great potential of xFe-SDC electrodes as promising avenues for high-performance fuel electrodes in SOEC.
RESUMO
In this work, a series of hydrogenated Fe-doped AgIO3 (FAI-x) catalysts are synthesized for photodegrading diverse azo dyes and antibiotics. Under the irradiation of natural sunlight with a light intensity of â¼60 mW/cm2, the optimum FAI-10 exhibits a considerable rate constant for decomposing methyl orange (MO) of 0.067 min-1, about 7.4 times higher than that of AgIO3 (0.009 min-1), and 24.6% and 83.8% of MO can be decomposed over AgIO3 and FAI-10 after irradiation for 40 min. In the amplification photodegradation experiments with using 0.5 g catalyst and 400 mL MO dye solution (10 mg/L), FAI-10 possesses greatly higher photoreactivity to common semiconductors (ZnO, TiO2, In2O3 and Bi2MoO6), and the photodegradation rates over FAI-10 are 92%. Particularly, the FAI-10 shows superior stability, the activity of which remains unaltered after 8 continuous cycles. Foreign ions and water bodies have slight effect on the activity of FAI-10, but the MO degradation rates are decreased by adjusting pH values, especially when pH = 11 because of the strong electrostatic repulsion between MO and FAI-10. FAI-10 can also effectively decompose another azo dye (rhodamine B (RhB)) and diverse antibiotics (sulflsoxazole (SOX), chlortetracycline hydrochloride (CTC), tetracycline hydrochloride (TC) and ofloxacin (OFX)). The activity enhancement mechanism of FAI-10 has been systemically investigated and is ascribed to the promoted photo-absorption, charge separation and transfer efficiency, and affinity of organic pollutants, owing to the synergistic effect of Fe doping and oxygen vacancy (Ov). The photocatalytic mechanisms and process for decomposing MO are verified and proposed based on radical trapping experiments and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). This work opens an avenue for the fabrication of effective photocatalysts toward water purification.

Developing bifunctional electrocatalyst for seawater splitting remains a persistent challenge. Herein, an approach is proposed through density functional theory (DFT) preanalysis to manipulate electron redistribution in Ni2 P addressed by cation doping and vacancy engineering. The needle-like Fe-doped Ni2 P with P vacancy (Fe-Ni2 Pv) is successfully synthesized on nickel foam, exhibiting a superior bifunctional hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalytic activity for seawater electrolysis in alkaline condition. As a result, bifunctional Fe-Ni2 Pv achieves the industrially required current densities of 1.0 and 3.0 A cm-2 at low voltages of 1.68 and 1.73 V, respectively, for seawater splitting at 60 °C in 6.0 m KOH circumstances. The theoretical calculation and the experimental results collectively reveal the reasons for the enhancement of catalyst activity. Specifically, Fe doping and P vacancies can accelerate the reconstruction of OER active species and optimize the hydrogen adsorption free energy (ΔGH* ) for HER. In addition, the active sites of Fe-Ni2 Pv are identified, where P vacancies greatly improve the electrical conductivity and Ni sites are the dominant OER active centers, meanwhile Fe atoms as active centers for the HER. The study provides a deep insight into the exploration for the enhancement of activity of nickel-based phosphide catalysts and the identification of their real active centers.
RESUMO
Precise morphology design and electronic structure regulation are critically significant to promote catalytic activity and stability for electrochemical hydrogen production at high current density. Herein, the carbon nanotube (CNT) encapsulated Fe-doped NiCoP nanoparticles is in-situ grown in hierarchical carbonized wood (NCF0.5 P@CNT/CW) for water splitting. Coupling merits of porous carbonized wood (CW) substrate, CNT encapsulating and Fe doping, the NCF0.5 P@CNT/CW features remarkable and durable electrocatalytic activity. The overpotentials of NCF0.5 P@CNT/CW at 50 mA cm-2 mV and 205 mV for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and features high current density of 800 mA cm-2 within 300 mV for both OER and HER. Moreover, NCF0.5 P@CNT/CW displays outstanding overall water splitting performance (η50 = 1.62 V and η100 = 1.67 V), outperforming Pt/CâRuO2 (η50 = 1.74 V), and can achieve the current density of 700 mA cm-2 at a lower cell voltage of 1.78 V. Overpotential is only 4.0 % decay after 120 h measurement at 50 mA cm-2 . Density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveals Fe doping optimizes the binding energy and Gibbs free energy of intermediates, and regulates d-band center of NCF0.5 P@CNT/CW. Such synergistic strategy of morphology manipulation and electronic structure optimization provides a spark for developing effective and robust bifunctional catalysts.
RESUMO
It is important to investigate whether combining two modification strategies has a synergistic effect on the activity of photocatalysts. In this manuscript, Fe-doped BiOBr/Bi2WO6 heterojunctions were synthesized by a one-pot solvothermal method, and excellent photocatalytic performance was obtained for the degradation of tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) in water without the addition of surfactant. Combining experiments and characterization, the synergistic effect between Fe ion doping and the BiOBr/Bi2WO6 heterojunction was elucidated. The Fe/BiOBr/Bi2WO6 composite photocatalyst had a beneficial void structure, enhanced visible light response, and could inhibit the recombination of photogenerated support well, which improved the photocatalytic activity. The presented experiments demonstrate that Fe/BiOBr/Bi2WO6 removes 97% of TCH from aqueous solution, while pure BiOBr and Bi2WO6 only remove 56% and 65% of TCH, respectively. Finally, the separation and transfer mechanisms of photoexcited carriers were determined in conjunction with the experimental results. This study provides a new direction for the design of efficient photocatalysts through the use of a dual co-modification strategy.

BACKGROUND: Tumor treatment still remains a clinical challenge, requiring the development of biocompatible and efficient anti-tumor nanodrugs. Carbon dots (CDs) has become promising nanomedicines for cancer therapy due to its low cytotoxicity and easy customization. RESULTS: Herein, we introduced a novel type of "green" nanodrug for multi-level cancer therapy utilizing Fe-doped carbon dots (Fe-CDs) derived from iron nutrient supplement. With no requirement for target moieties or external stimuli, the sole intravenous administration of Fe-CDs demonstrated unexpected anti-tumor activity, completely suppressing tumor growth in mice. Continuous administration of Fe-CDs for several weeks showed no toxic effects in vivo, highlighting its exceptional biocompatibility. The as-synthesized Fe-CDs could selectively induce tumor cells apoptosis by BAX/Caspase 9/Caspase 3/PARP signal pathways and activate antitumoral macrophages by inhibiting the IL-10/Arg-1 axis, contributing to its significant tumor immunotherapy effect. Additionally, the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process was inhibited under the treatment of Fe-CDs by MAPK/Snail pathways, indicating the capacity of Fe-CDs to inhibit tumor recurrence and metastasis. CONCLUSIONS: A three-level tumor treatment strategy from direct killing to activating immunity to inhibiting metastasis was achieved based on "green" Fe-CDs. Our findings reveal the broad clinical potential of Fe-CDs as a novel candidate for anti-tumor nanodrugs and nanoplatform.

Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) bearing rich accessible Lewis acidic/basic active sites and hierarchical pores are favorable to catalyze the cycloaddition of CO2 and epoxides with high yields of the target product under mild conditions. In this context, a facile etching and regrowth method is developed here to convert unstable leaf-like zinc-based ZIF-L to one kind of bimetallic ZIF (namely, ZnFe-ZIF) with a rough surface, a porous and accessible three-dimensional structure, and abundant Lewis acidic sites. Owing to the high Fe-doping content functioning as rich Lewis acidic sites and the high CO2 adsorbing capability together with the structural advantages to favor the mass diffusion, the yield of target cyclic carbonate can be up to >99% for the cycloaddition of CO2 and epichlorohydrin by ZnFe-ZIF at 6 h under mild conditions (0.1 MPa and 80 °C) with the selectivity of 100%. More importantly, unlike ZIF-L, which is unstable in the reaction system, the synthesized ZnFe-ZIF displays a satisfactory chemical stability without a loss in catalytic activities after five recycling runs as well as good substrate tolerance, making ZnFe-ZIF a potential high-performance catalyst for CO2 conversion.
RESUMO
Designing bifunctional electrocatalysts with high efficiency and low cost for water splitting is urgently required for the production of green hydrogen. Herein, a bifunctional iron-doped cobalt borate/cobalt phosphide hybrid supported on nickel foam (Fe-CoBi/CoP/NF) was fabricated via hydrothermal and phosphating process. Benefit from the unique nanoneedle architecture for faster mass transfer, the existence of borate on CoBi for accelerating proton transfer, the moderate adsorption of H* species on CoP, Fe doping and the synergistic effect between CoBi and CoP, Fe-CoBi/CoP/NF hybrid exhibits a low overpotential of 137 mV and 260 mV at 100 mA cm-2 for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER), respectively. Moreover, Fe-CoBi/CoP/NF||Fe-CoBi/CoP/NF also presents a low cell potential of 1.65 V@100 mA cm-2 for overall alkaline water splitting and excellent durability (128 h) without decay. This work provides a new insight into the design of bifunctional electrocatalysts simultaneously through the morphological engineering and heteroatomic doping.
RESUMO
Tetracycline (TC) as a common antibiotic has adverse effects on human healthy and biological survival. In this study, a novel MXene/TiO2/Fe hybrid was designed and successfully synthesized by combination method of calcination and hydrothermal reduction. The photocatalysts were characterized by PXRD, SEM, TEM, VSM and XPS, etc. It was found that MXene/TiO2/Fe exhibited 2D multilayer structure like MXene. The in-situ synthesized TiO2 through calcinating MXene exhibited an octahedral biconical structure with exposed (001) and (101) facets. Surface heterojunction of (001) and (101) facets was formed within TiO2, which enhanced the separation of photogenerated electrons and holes. The residual MXene could play a role in co-catalyst to capture the photo-generated electrons from TiO2. Moreover, Fe nanoparticles not only optimize the band gap structure and increase the specific surface area, but also store the electrons as a good electrons acceptor, which further promote the separation of electrons and holes. The TC removal efficiency of optimal MXene/TiO2/Fe could reach 92% within 120 min. Moreover, the influence of external environment factors such as pH, catalyst dosages and common anions were investigated in detail. Mechanism analysis show that h+, â¢OH and â¢O2- are the main active substances. Finally, the degradation pathways were proposed according to LC-MS.

Spinel ZnMn2O4 with a three-dimensional channel structure is one of the important cathode materials for aqueous zinc ions batteries (AZIBs). However, like other manganese-based materials, spinel ZnMn2O4 also has problems such as poor conductivity, slow reaction kinetics and structural instability under long cycles. Herein, ZnMn2O4 mesoporous hollow microspheres with metal ion doping were prepared by a simple spray pyrolysis method and applied to the cathode of aqueous zinc ion battery. Cation doping not only introduces defects, changes the electronic structure of the material, improves its conductivity, structural stability, and reaction kinetics, but also weakens the dissolution of Mn2+. The optimized 0.1 % Fe-doped ZnMn2O4 (0.1% Fe-ZnMn2O4) has a capacity of 186.8 mAh g-1 after 250 charge-discharge cycles at 0.5 A g-1 and the discharge specific capacity reaches 121.5 mAh g-1 after 1200 long cycles at 1.0 A g-1. The theoretical calculation results show that doping causes the change of electronic state structure, accelerates the electron transfer rate, and improves the electrochemical performance and stability of the material.
RESUMO
Electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) for artificial ammonia synthesis under mild conditions has been considered as a promising alternative to the conventional Haber-Bosch method. The highly desired efficient NRR still faced with the mulriple challenges of adsorption and activation of N2 and limited Faraday efficiency. Here, Fe-doped Bi2MoO6 nanosheets fabricated by one step synthesis exhibits high NH3 yield rate of 71.01 µg·h-1·mg-1 and Faraday Efficiency of 80.12%. The decreased electron density of Bi in collaboration with Lewis acid active sites on Fe-doped Bi2MoO6, jointly enhance the adsorption and activation of Lewis basic N2. Benefited from surface texture optimization and the superior ability of N2 adsorption and activation, the increasing density of effective active sites greatly improve the NRR behavior. This work provides new opportunities for developing efficient and highly selective catalysts for NH3 synthesis via NRR.
RESUMO
Water pollution caused by industrial wastewater is the most critical environmental problem in the world. Synthetic dyes are commonly used in various industries such as paper, plastic, printing, leather and textile for their ability to impact color. Complex composition, high toxicity and low biodegradability of dyes make them difficult to degrade which causes a substantial negative impact on overall ecosystems. To address this issue we synthesized TiO2 fibers photocatalyst using the combination of sol-gel and electrospinning techniques to be used in the degradation of dyes which causes water pollution. We doped Fe in TiO2 fibers to enhance the absorption in the visible region of the solar spectrum which will also help to increase the degradation efficiency. As synthesized pristine TiO2 fibers and Fe doped TiO2 fibers were analyzed using different characterization techniques such as X-ray diffraction, Scanning electron microscopy, Transmission electron microscopy, UV-Visible spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. 5% Fe doped TiO2 fibers show excellent photocatalytic degradation activity for rhodamine B (99% degradation in 120 min). It can be utilized for degradation of other dye pollutants such as methylene blue, Congo red and methyl orange. It shows good photocatalytic activity (97%) even after 5 cycles of reuse. The radical trapping experiments reveals that holes, â¢O2- and â¢OH has a significant contribution in the photocatalytic degradation. Due to the robust fibrous nature of 5FeTOF the process of collection of photocatalysts was simple and without loss as compared to powder photocatalysts. This justifies our selection of electrospinning method of synthesis of 5FeTOF which is also useful for large scale production.

Epitaxial growth and controllable doping of wafer-scale atomically thin semiconductor single crystals are two central tasks to tackle the scaling challenge of transistors. Despite considerable efforts are devoted, addressing such crucial issues simultaneously under 2D confinement is yet to be realized. Here, an ingenious strategy to synthesize record-breaking 4 in. length Fe-doped transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) single crystals on industry-compatible c-plane sapphire without special miscut angle is designed. Atomically thin transistors with high electron mobility (≈146 cm2 V-1 s-1 ) and remarkable on/off current ratio (≈109 ) are fabricated based on 4 in. length Fe-MoS2 single crystals, due to the ultralow contact resistance (≈489 Ω µm). In-depth characterizations and theoretical calculations reveal that the introduction of Fe significantly decreases the formation energy of parallel steps on sapphire surfaces and contributes to the edge-nucleation of unidirectional alignment TMDCs domains (>99%). This work represents a substantial leap in terms of bridging synthesis and doping of wafer-scale 2D semiconductor single crystals, which should promote the further device downscaling and extension of Moore's law.
RESUMO
Fe-doped carbon xerogels with a highly developed graphitic structure were synthesized by a one-step sol-gel polymerization. These highly graphitic Fe-doped carbons are presented as promising dual-functional electro-Fenton catalysts to perform both the electro-reduction of O2 to H2O2 and H2O2 catalytic decomposition (Fenton) for wastewater decontamination. The amount of Fe is key to the development of this electrode material, since affects the textural properties; catalyzes the development of graphitic clusters improving the electrode conductivity; and influences the O2-catalyst interaction controlling the H2O2 selectivity but, at the same time is the catalyst for the decomposition of the electrogenerated H2O2 to OH⢠radicals for the organic pollutants oxidation. All materials achieve the development of ORR via the 2-electron route. The presence of Fe considerably improves the electro-catalytic activity. However, a mechanism change seems to occur at around -0.5 V in highly Fe-doped samples. At potential lower than -0.5 eV, the present of Feδ+ species or even Fe-O-C active sites favour the selectivity to 2e-pathway, however at higher potentials, Feδ+ species are reduced favoring a O-O strong interaction enhancing the 4e-pathway. The Electro-Fenton degradation of tetracycline was analyzed. The TTC degradation is almost complete (95.13%) after 7 h of reaction without using any external Fenton-catalysts.

As a lithium-ion battery cathode material with high theoretical capacity, the application of V2O5is limited by its unstable structure and low intrinsic conductivity. In this paper, we report a Fe doped V2O5nanowire with a layered structure of 200-300 nm diameter prepared by electrostatic spinning technique. The 3Fe-V2O5electrode exhibited a superb capacity of 436.9 mAh g-1in the first cycle when tested in the voltage range of 2.0-4.0 V at current density of 100 mA g-1, far exceeding its theoretical capacity (294 mAh g-1), and the high capacity of 312 mAh g-1was still maintained after 50 cycles. The superb performance is mainly attributed to its unique layered nanowire structure and the enhanced electrical conductivity as well as optimized structure brought by Fe-doping. This work made the homogeneous doping and nanosizing of the material easily achieved through electrostatic spinning technology, leading to an increase in the initial capacity of the V2O5cathode material and the cycling stability compared to the pure V2O5, which is an extremely meaningful exploration.
