The cathode materials work as the host framework for both Li+ diffusion and electron transport in Li‐ion batteries. The Li+ diffusion property is always the research focus, while the electron transport property is less studied. Herein, we propose a unique strategy to elevate the rate performance through promoting the surface electric conductivity. Specifically, a disordered rock‐salt phase was coherently constructed at the surface of LiCoO2, promoting the surface electric conductivity by over one magnitude. It increased the effective voltage (Veff) imposed in the bulk, thus driving more Li+ extraction/insertion and making LiCoO2 exhibit superior rate capability (154 mAh g−1 at 10 C), and excellent cycling performance (93 % after 1000 cycles at 10 C). The universality of this strategy was confirmed by another surface design and a simulation. Our findings provide a new angle for developing high‐rate cathode materials by tuning the surface electron transport property. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Being an important ability of modern enterprises, information ability fully motivates the improvement of various business processes in enterprises. Information ability is a system, including a series of the basic elements such as information resource platforms, information production ability, information retrieval ability and information application ability. In Chinese enterprises the level of information ability is so low that it has hindered the development and utilization of information resources. The empirical research reveals the internal mechanisms of Chinese enterprise information ability system, proposes advantages and disadvantages of the information ability practice in Chinese enterprise so as to provide a realistic theory reference to improve Chinese enterprise information ability.

Effective separation of photoexcited carriers and chemisorption of the N 2 molecule are two key issues to efficient nitrogen photofixation. The spatial charge separation of BiVO 4 with anisotropic exposed facets, namely the transfer of photoexcited electrons and holes to {010} and {110} facets, respectively, helps to enhance the separation ability of photogenerated carriers. Theoretical calculation results predict that a surface oxygen vacancy is easier to form on the (010) facet than on the (110) facet of BiVO 4 . Accordingly, in this study, enhanced N 2 photofixation performance has been achieved for the first time by tuning the exposure of {010} facets of BiVO 4 ., Competing Interests: There are no conflicts to declare., (This journal is © The Royal Society of Chemistry.)
