Abstract
For micron-sized nickel-based hydroxides sheets, the reaction and migration of anions/water molecules in the inner region tends to lag behind those along the edge, which can cause structure mismatch and capacity degradation during cycles. Nanosizing and structure design is a feasible solution to shorten the ion/electron path and improve the reaction homogeneity. Herein, this study reports a novel three-stage strategy (self-assembly of NiMn-LDH/ppy-C - reduction to NiMn/ppy-C - in situ phase transformation into NiMn/NiMn-LDH/ppy-C) to reduce the sheet size of NiMn-LDH to nanometer. Triggered by electrochemical activation, NiMn-LDH nanosheets can hereby easily and orderly grow on the exposed active (111) crystal plane of Ni to establish NiMn-LDH/NiMn heterostructure around ppy-C. Importantly, nanosizing and hierarchical structure play a synergistic role to maintain structural integrity and to promote the electron/mass transfer kinetics. The NiMn/NiMn-LDH/ppy-C composite delivers superior cycling stability with almost no decay of capacity retention after 40,000 cycles at 5 A g-1. Our hierarchical morphology modulation provides an ingenious, efficient way to boost the performance of Ni-based layered hydroxide materials.

Abstract
Herein, cuprous oxide (Cu2O) micro-nano cubes were successfully synthesized via a seed-medium process. It is worth noting that the microcubes were formed by oriented self-assembly of 2 × 2 × 2 nanocubes. The oriented self-assembly process can be effective controlled by simply adjusting the concentration of reactants. What's more, the obtained samples were applied for non-enzymatic glucose detection and exhibited excellent performance. The Cu2O nanocubes obtained at the highest concentration exhibited the highest sensitivity (2864 μAmM-1cm-2), while the Cu2O microcubes obtained at the lowest concentration shared the widest linear range (up to 10.65 mM) and lowest limit of detection (LOD, 0.87 μΜ). The acceptable anti-interference ability, excellent stability together with the practical application ability make our obtained electrodes a new strategy for monitoring glucose in biological and food samples.

Abstract
Herein, the Cu2O yolk-shell nanospheres, nanocubes and microcubes were successfully prepared by a simple seed-medium process. The formation of the Cu2O yolk-shell nanospheres can be attributed to the self-assembly process caused by the introduction of the seed medium. The formation mechanism of our obtained Cu2O yolk-shell nanospheres and the dependence of Cu2O morphology on different surfactants have been studied. The obtained samples were applied in the field of non-enzymatic glucose detection. The electrochemical response characteristics of the modified electrodes toward glucose were investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry (CA). The electrode modified with C-Cu2O (obtained by using CTAB as surfactant) shared the highest sensitivity of 3123 μAmM-1 cm-2, whereas, the electrode modified with S-Cu2O (obtained by using SDBS as surfactant) exhibited the lowest LOD of 0.87 μM and the widest linear range of 0.05-10.65 mM. All obtained sensors showed fast response to the addition of glucose. The obtained electrodes showed better responses to glucose than other coexisting interferences, indicating that the obtained electrodes had the acceptable selectivity to glucose. In addition, the stability for 5 consecutive weeks had also been studied and exhibited satisfactory results. The obtained electrode was also used to detect the glucose content in real serum. The acceptable selectivity, stability together with the excellent sensing ability in real serum make the obtained electrodes a potential for practical applications.

Abstract
Due to the unique advantages, developing a rapid, simple and economical synthetic strategy for porous nanomaterials is of great interest. In this work, for the first time, using sodium hypochlorite as a green oxidant, urea was oxidized to CO2 as a carbon source to prepare the fine-particle crosslinked Cu-precursors, which could be further reduced by sodium ascorbate into pure Cu2O nanospheres (NPs) with a porous morphology at room temperature. Interestingly, our study reveals that introduction of an appropriate amount of MgCl2 into the raw materials can tune the pore sizes and surface area, but has no influence on the phase purity of the resulting Cu2O NPs. Significantly, all the synthesized Cu2O NPs exhibited intrinsic peroxidase-like activity with higher affinity towards both 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and H2O2 than horseradish peroxidase (HRP) due to the highly porous morphology and the electrostatic attraction towards TMB. The colorimetric detection of glucose based on the resulting porous Cu2O NPs presented a limit of detection (LOD) of 2.19 μM with a broad linear range from 1-1000 μM, much better than many recently reported composite-based nanozymes. Meanwhile, this nanozyme system was utilized to detect l-cysteine, exhibiting a LOD value as low as 0.81 μM within a linear range from 0 to 10 μM. More interesting, this sensing system shows high sensitivity and excellent selectivity in determining glucose and l-cysteine, which is suitable for detecting serum samples with reliable results. Therefore, the present study not only develops a simple strategy to prepare Cu2O NPs with controllable porous structure, but also indicates its promising applications in bioscience and disease diagnosis.
