... The hallmark of antiferromagnetic substances (e.g., iron manganese and chromium) is their zero net magnetic moments, while ferrimagnetics (such as Fe 3 O 4 or magnetite) have net magnetic moments of small value. This is because ferrimagnetics have mostly parallel and some antiparallel spins, whereas the number of parallel and antiparallel spins in antiferromagnetic cancel each other out (Blügel et al., 1988;Zhang et al., 2023). The magnetic properties exhibited by different NPs play a critical role in their applications within the biomedical field. ...

Additionally, we have successfully investigated magnetic behaviors of nano-graphene bilayer structure [53]. ...
... In recent years, defect engineering [9], interface engineering [10,11] and other strategies have been used to optimize the catalytic activity of transition metal-based catalysts. Among them, biphasic engineering has been widely studied because the heterogeneous interface it forms can effectively increase the active sites of catalysts, and it can also affect catalytic ability by changing surface characteristics and electronic states [12]. It is a challenging task to make two different types of active components rationally combine and have interface effects at the nanoscale. ...

... Based on the effect of oxygen vacancies and the electronic structure of B-site transition metals on electrocatalytic activity, several strategies for doping other elements in the A/B site of LaCoO 3 perovskite have been proposed. Qian et al. [23,24] have successively investigated the effect of A-site doping with Ce and Ca on the bifunctional catalytic activity of LaCoO 3 perovskite. They found that partial substitution of Ce or Ca can optimize the electron-spin state of Co, thereby improving the covalency and conductivity of Co 3d-O 2p and thus achieving highly enhanced performance of ORR/OER. ...

... It has been reported that a higher concentration of nitrogen vacancies improves the separation of photogenerated charge carriers and light absorption [119,120]. Furthermore, N 3C has a larger number of unpaired electrons in the nitrogen atoms, resulting in a higher density of active sites available for photocatalytic processes [121]. Wang et al. [104] demonstrated that surface nitrogen vacancies reduce the recombination of photoinduced charge carriers by creating localized electronic trap states within the band gap of the material. ...

... However, σ is lower for CdS type-d, type-e, and type-f because of their electron concentrations are lower under dark conditions. It is found that lower σ values are due to nano-size particles [72,73]. Because of lower σ, CdS type-d, type-e, and type-f are bad conductors. ...
... The reverse magnetization values of LCO and LCO-3 were obtained through the FC curve (Fig. 5h). According to Curie Weiss's law, the magnetic moment of LCO-3 (0.8 μ B ) was obtained from the fitting results compared to LCO (0.1 μ B ) [21,49]. The significant increase of the magnetic moment indicated that V La could increase the spin state of Co 3+ near the V La site to a change in the e g orbital occupancy of Co 3+ , which was one of the important factors affecting the degradation mechanism during PMS activation [50]. ...
