Purpose: MXene is two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials that comprise transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides. Their unique nanostructure attributes it a special role in medical applications. However, bibliometric studies have not been conducted in this field. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to conduct a bibliometric analysis to evaluate the global scientific output of MXene in biomedical research, explore the current situation of this field in the past years and predicte its research hotpots.Methods: We utilized visual analysis softwares Citespace and Bibliometrix to analyze all relevant documents published in the period of 2011–2022. The bibliometric records were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection.Results: A total of 1,489 publications were analyzed in this study. We observed that China is the country with the largest number of publications, with Sichuan University being the institution with the highest number of publications in this field. The most publications on MXene medicine research in the past year were found primarily in journals about Chemistry/Materials/Physics. Moreover, ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces was found to be the most productive journal in this field. Co-cited references and keyword cluster analysis revealed that #antibacterial# and #photothermal therapy# are the research focus keyword and burst detection suggested that driven wearable electronics were newly-emergent research hot spots.Conclusion: Our bibliometric analysis indicates that research on MXene medical application remains an active field of study. At present, the research focus is on the application of MXene in the field of antibacterial taking advantage of its photothermal properties. In the future, wearable electronics is the research direction of MXene medical application.

“…Among them, heterostructures are used to construct coating layer to endow the separator more functions. [205][206][207][208] These heterostructures based coating layer usually has enough space to ensure the efficient Li + transport. In addition, the solvation radius of Li + is usually <0.5 nm in organic solvents, which is small enough compared to the gap of coating layer.…”

Sluggish reaction kinetics and severe shuttling effect of lithium polysulfides seriously hinder the development of lithium‐sulfur batteries. Heterostructures, due to unique properties, have congenital advantages that are difficult to be achieved by single‐component materials in regulating lithium polysulfides by efficient catalysis and strong adsorption to solve the problems of poor reaction kinetics and serious shuttling effect of lithium‐sulfur batteries. In this review, the principles of heterostructures expediting lithium polysulfides conversion and anchoring lithium polysulfides are detailly analyzed, and the application of heterostructures as sulfur host, interlayer, and separator modifier to improve the performance of lithium‐sulfur batteries are systematically reviewed. Finally, the problems that need to be solved in the future study and application of heterostructures in lithium‐sulfur batteries are prospected. This review will provide a valuable reference for the development of heterostructures in advanced lithium sulfur batteries.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved

“…First, the insulating nature of both sulfur (5 × 10 −28 S cm −1 ) or selenium (1 × 10 −3 S cm −1 ), as well as their discharge products lead to the poor electrode conductivity. [83,84] Second, the notable volume change of the chalcogen cathode (e.g., 50.3% of S) during battery dynamic cycling may induce a large mechanical destruction effect. [85,86] Third, the sluggish reaction kinetics of chalcogen species during the direct solid-solid conversion process in water-based electrolyte may bring low energy efficiencies during cycles.…”

Zinc‐ion batteries with chalcogen‐based (S, Se, Te) cathodes have emerged as a promising candidate for utility‐scale energy storage systems and portable electronics, which have attracted rapid attention and offer tremendous opportunities owing to their excellent energy density, on top of the advantages of aqueous Zn batteries including cost‐effectiveness, inherent safety, and eco‐friendliness. Here, a comprehensive overview on the basic mechanism of zinc–chalcogen batteries with their great advantages and intrinsic issues is provided. More detailed recent progress is summarized and the existing challenges with promising strategies are provided as well. First, four specific types of batteries are presented, including: zinc–sulfur, zinc–selenium, zinc–selenium sulfide, and zinc–tellurium batteries. Second, the remaining challenges within chalcogen‐based cathodes in the material preparation, physicochemical properties, and battery performance are summarized and discussed. Meanwhile, a series of constructive strategies are comprehensively put forward for optimizing electrochemical performance. Finally, the future research perspectives of zinc–chalcogen batteries are proposed for the exploration and innovation of next‐generation green zinc storage applications.
