Spin polarization induced by atomic strain of MBene promotes the ·O2 – production for groundwater disinfection by Zhaoli Liu, Wenzhe Gao, Lizhi Liu, Yixuan Gao, Cui Zhang, Long Chen, Fan Lv, Jiafeng Xi, Ting Du, Linpin Luo, Junchen Zhuo, Wentao Zhang, Yanwei Ji, Yizhong Shen, Wen Liu, Jianlong Wang, Mingchuan Luo, Shaojun Guo

“…Herein, we report a class of strained Mo4/3B2-xTz MBene (MB) with enhanced adsorption/activation of molecular O2 for photocatalytic disinfection, and find the strain induced spin polarization of In2S3/Mo4/3B2-xTz (IS/MB) can facilitate the spin-orbit hybridization of Mo sites and O2 to overcome the spin-forbidden of O2, which results in a 16.59-fold increase in ·O2 − photocatalytic production in low DO condition (2.46 mg L-1). …”
