Electrochemical CO_(2) reduction reaction(CO_(2) RR) has attracted growing attention in energy storage and sustainable production of fuels and chemicals. N-doped carbon materials are preferred metal-free electrocatalysts, but it remains one challenge to finely engineer the active sites and porosity. Herein, we demonstrated that ionic porous polyamides were a kind of versatile precursors to prepare functional carbon materials in a one-step pyrolysis process. The polyamide precursors allowed the maintenance of abundant N species at high temperatures. The existence of ionic moieties and large specific surface area of the precursors promoted the formation of larger porosity carbon with a large specific surface area and sufficient active graphitic-N species by controlling the pyrolysis temperature. The catalyst was highly selective in the CO_(2) RR to produce CO with a maximum Faraday efficiency above 99%, attributable to the improved mass transfer in a large porosity system. This work shows that ionic polyamides are promising carbon precursors for the fabrication of metal-free electrocatalysts for CO_(2) RR.

Polyphosphazene with phenoxy or 4-ester phenoxy as pendent groups are demonstrated as both ligands and host matrices for CsPbBr_(3) perovskite nanocrystals(NCs). These polymers produced fiexible nanocomposite films with excellent NCs dispersion, optical transparency and stability in various extreme conditions. Both films remained stable even after 30 days of air storage. CsPbBr_(3) /poly[bis(phenoxy phosphazene)](PBPP) delivered better air and light stability, and CsPbBr_(3) /poly[bis(4-esterphenoxy)phosphazene](PBEPP) exhibited superior water and heat resistance. CsPbBr_(3) /PBEPP showed a greater increase in fiuorescence intensity under 365 nm UV light and demonstrated a 10% luminescence increase after 96 h of water immersion and even at high temperature(150℃). These findings thus provide new insight into fiexible luminescent CsPbBr_(3) films with high stability in optoelectronic applications.
