  text: Overcoming the slow kinetics of the oxygen evolution reaction at the anode
    is a key challenge for the production of hydrogen via electrolysis. This reaction
    operates at very positive potentials, where the electrocatalyst is exposed to
    highly oxidative conditions and prone to potential-dependent transformation of
    the near-surface region. While substantial evidence for such surface restructuring
    exists, its extent and relevance for the catalyst’s activity are unclear. We address
    this topic for the case of Co3O4, one of the best-known electrocatalysts exhibiting
    surface restructuring, by studies of epitaxial (111)-ordered electrodeposited
    films with combined operando X-ray surface diffraction and absorption spectroscopy,
    electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and electrochemical measurements on rotating
    disk electrodes. Comparison of the as-prepared and annealed state of the same
    samples, which both are stable even under long-term oxygen evolution conditions,
    provides clear insight into the role of surface defects. Our results show that
    defect-free annealed Co3O4(111) surfaces are structurally stable over a wide potential
    range and hydroxylate via adsorption at surface oxygen and Co sites. Potential-induced
    surface restructuring of the Co3O4 lattice occurs only in the presence of surface
    defects, leading to the formation of the well-known nanometer-thick oxyhydroxide
    skin layer. The presence of this skin layer promotes oxygen evolution at low overpotentials
    but results in higher Tafel slopes. As a result, highly ordered Co3O4(111) surfaces
    are more active at high current densities than defective Co3O4 surfaces that undergo
    surface restructuring. These results highlight that strategies for catalyst surface
    defect engineering need to be application-oriented.

  text: Data spaces are receiving an emerging interest in Information Systems Research
    and industry practice. They are central to many European research initiatives
    and shape the data economy in Industry 4.0. Generally, they aim to create secure
    environments for cross-organizational data management and sharing. Currently,
    there is considerable interest in developing new data spaces in Industry 4.0,
    also accelerated through regulatory changes. However, key questions about what
    precisely characterizes a data space in Industry 4.0 remain unresolved. Against
    this backdrop, we build a taxonomy of data spaces in the Industry 4.0 context.
    We identified nine distinctive dimensions and 40 corresponding characteristics
    among the 19 data spaces analyzed. The taxonomy enables clearer classification
    and nomenclature of data spaces in this context. This short paper will ignite
    planned further research on data spaces in Industry 4.0 and contribute to a conceptualization
    of a taxonomic theory for interested researchers.

  text: '<jats:p>To obtain a more comprehensive understanding of the specific properties
    of complex-shaped technical aerosols—such as partially sintered aggregates formed
    in combustion processes or structured particles resulting from complex synthesis
    processes—it is essential to measure more than a single equivalent size. This
    study examines a novel method for determining a two-dimensional distribution of
    two distinct particle properties within the size range from 50nm to 1000nm: the
    Centrifugal Differential Mobility Analyzer (CDMA). The CDMA enables the simultaneous
    measurement of both mobility and Stokes equivalent diameters, providing a detailed
    two-dimensional particle property distribution. This, in turn, allows for the
    extraction of shape-related information, which is essential for characterizing
    particles in terms of their chemical composition, reactivity, and other physicochemical
    properties. This paper presents a detailed evaluation of a first CDMA prototype.
    First, CFD simulations of the flow field within the classifier are presented in
    order to assess and understand non-idealities arising from the exact geometry.
    Subsequently, the transfer function is evaluated by particle trajectory calculations
    based on the simulated flow field. It can be demonstrated that the simulated transfer
    functions agree quite well with transfer functions derived from streamlines of
    an ideal flow field, indicating that the non-idealities in the classifying region
    are almost negligible in their effect on the classification result. An experimental
    determination of the transfer function shows additional effects not covered by
    the previous simulations, like broadening by diffusion and losses due to diffusion
    and precipitation within the in- and outlet of the classifier. Finally, the determined
    transfer functions are used to determine the full two-dimensional distribution
    with regard to the mobility and Stokes equivalent diameter of real aerosols, like
    spherical particles and aggregates at different sintering stages, respectively.</jats:p>'

  text: Doped Co3O4 nanoparticles are investigated via spectro-electrochemistry in
    the (pre-) oxygen evolution reaction (OER) regime by tracing the absorption signal
    of the Co3+ d–d transition under applied bias for getting insight into the catalysts
    activation and the formation of catalytically active phases. In the low potential
    regime up to 1.37 VRHE, a rise in the optical absorption signal of the [Co3+]oct
    d–d transition is observed and attributed to a structural change from [Co2+]tet
    to [Co3+]oct due to an electrochemically induced surface restructuring with water.
    For applied potentials higher than 1.37 VRHE an overall offset of the absorption
    spectra in the UV–vis range, equivalent to a darkening of the materials is detected.
    This is attributed to the formation of a CoOx(OH)y skin layer as supported by
    high-energy X-ray diffraction (HE-XRD) measurements. We found that the kinetics
    of the Co3+ states are heavily influenced by the type of dopant with V-doped Co3O4
    exhibiting stable Co3+ states (>20 min) while the Mn-doped Co3O4 Co3+ states reduce
    within 36 s under reductive bias. We conclude that doping Co3O4 with transition
    metals affects the formation and potential-dependent thickness of the CoOx(OH)y
    skin layer as the catalytically active phase and the formation of long-time stable
    surface Co3+ states after activation in the first OER cycle.

  text: "This paper reveals the 3D character of the intermetallic layer at the aluminum–steel
    interface which pops\r\nup above the original sample surface during annealing.
    Popping out of the intermetallics was proven using\r\natomic force microscopy.
    The phase expands out of the plane due to the exothermic formation of the Al5Fe2\r\nphase
    and the feasibility of surface diffusion. Milling by a focused ion beam enabled
    the comparison of the\r\nchemical composition of the surface layer with the bulk
    interface, showing no difference. The growth direction\r\nis both towards aluminum
    and steel — the main diffusion flux is from aluminum towards steel, and the new\r\nintermetallic
    phase emerges at the steel side. The shortage of Al atoms causes a shift of the
    intermetallic as a\r\nwhole towards aluminum."

  text: Abstract In this work, we report on an improved cell assembly of cylindrical
    electrochemical cells for 23Na in-situ solid-state NMR (ssNMR) investigations.
    The cell set-up is suitable for using powder electrode materials. Reproducibility
    of our cell assembly is analyzed by preparing two cells containing hard carbon
    (HC) powder as working electrode and sodium metal as reference electrode. Electrochemical
    storage properties of HC powder electrode derived from carbonization of sustainable
    cellulose are studied by ssNMR. 23Na in-situ ssNMR monitors the sodiation/desodiation
    of a Na{\textbar}NaPF6{\textbar}HC cell (cell 1) over a period of 22?days, showing
    high cell stability. After the galvanostatic process, the HC powder material is
    investigated by high resolution 23Na ex-situ MAS NMR. The formation of ionic sodium
    species in different chemical environments is obtained. Subsequently, a second
    Na{\textbar}NaPF6{\textbar}HC cell (cell 2) is sodiated for 11?days achieving
    a capacity of 220?mAh/g. 23Na ex-situ MAS NMR measurements of the HC powder material
    extracted from this cell clearly indicate the presence of quasi-metallic sodium
    species next to ionic sodium species. This observation of quasi-metallic sodium
    species is discussed in terms of the achieved capacity of the cell as well as
    of side reactions of sodium in this electrode material.

  text: Coordinatively unsaturated sites (CUS) present a key feature of alumina based
    catalysts as they are believed to act as Lewis-acid sites in heterogeneously catalyzed
    reactions. In the present study, the direct observation of active species on a
    fluoride-doped aluminum oxide catalyst is demonstrated. This new fluoride-doped
    aluminum oxide exhibits strong Lewis-acid sites and superior catalytic activity
    as compared to gamma-Al2O3. To emphasize the labile state of Lewis-acid sites,
    two distinctive states of the catalysts surface are addressed using H-1-Al-27
    cross polarization (CP) MAS NMR. On the one hand, the highly dehydrated and active
    state after calcination at 700 degrees C and on the other hand the rehydrated
    and catalytically inactive surface (produced by contact to air) are probed. These
    experiments revealed the presence of significant amounts of coordinatively unsaturated
    sites in the form of 4-and 5-fold coordinated Al-sites on the highly dehydrated
    surface. In contrast to this, the rehydrated sample exhibited a severely restructured
    surface caused by the chemisorption of H2O which is ’constituted in a manner that
    was proposed in earlier models for gamma-Al2O3 surfaces.
