Fig. 4d shows the comparison of the rate performances and coulombic efficiencies of the three types of cathodes under different current densities (0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0C). All three cathodes show a coulombic efficiency over 98%, which could be due to the highly conductive CNF skeletons. And, with increasing the c...

Electrolyte additives may modify lithium deposition in several different ways, e.g. by influencing initial SEI formation on the current collector, the nucleation stage of lithium metal deposition, the growth of lithium metal deposits, or some combination thereof. To investigate during which step of lithium metal electr...

The fabrication of the nanomesh-based cathodes is performed in several steps, starting from the formation of the AAO template, growth of the nanomesh, deposition of the active material precursor and finally its activation by reaction with a lithium source (Fig. 1). In our approach, we focused on lithiated manganese oxi...

Acoustic wave velocity is determined by the speed of wave propagation through a medium with defined thickness. While the wave arrival time can be determined from the measured acoustic signal, thickness must be measured independently to verify the wave velocity. The expansion and contraction of a pouch cell during cycli...

Then, Na metal was placed on the surface of the UV curing polymer electrolyte, and the product of a cell test in which a Na metal/solid electrolyte/cathode was made was placed in a 2032-coin cell. All steps were processed in a glovebox with less than 10 ppm for both oxygen and moisture. When manufacturing the bipolar s...

In summary, active catholyte has been applied to assemble a high-performance hybrid supercapacitor, which relies on the reversible conversion between soluble Mn2+ and solid MnO2 at the cathode and the redox of Ti–O with the bonding/de-bonding of H3O+ at the 400-KOH-Ti3C2 anode. The well-separated potential window betwe...

To study the electrolyte reduction processes resulting in SEI formation, cyclic voltammetry (CV) was performed systematically as a function of added HF concentration (as-received, +10, +100, and +500 ppm) and voltage sweep rate. Fig. 5 shows a series of CV scans measured at 5 mV s−1 in electrolytes with varying concent...

We report, for the first time, that DPPT-TT is a lower performance channel material compared to P3HT and PBTTT. For DPPT-TT, the ON current (∼−1.0 μA), VON value (∼0.63 V), and transconductance (0.012 mS), are far below the performance of P3HT and PBTTT. Still, the addition of DBSA to the electrolyte is effective in en...

Inspired by the remarkably active Mn4CaO5 clusters for water oxidation, Mn3O4 with high-concentration and stable Mn3+ has, therefore, been extensively researched as an efficient electrocatalyst for OER. In the spinel structure Mn2+Mn23+O4, Mn existed as Mn2+ and Mn3+; here, Mn3+ occupied the octahedral site and Mn2+ io...

In summary, the mechanism of Li dendrite formation in LLZTO was discussed in terms of energy band structure as well as defect states, and was investigated by REELS, SPEM, and Nano Q-DLTS. The experimental results corroborate that the higher defect densities at the GBs lower the SBH by 0.5 eV and makes metallic Li atoms...

Anthraquinone-1,5-disulfonic acid disodium salt (1,5-AQDS, 1a) was first proposed for potassium batteries by Xu et al. In a carbonate-based electrolyte, the authors achieved the reversible capacity per material mass (Qm) of 95 mA h g−1 at 0.1C (13 mA g−1), and after a hundred cycles the capacity was 78 mA h g−1.

The high-rate performance of 3Mg/Mg2Sn was mainly attributed to a low RCT. EIS spectra revealed that the RCT in 3Mg/Mg2Sn is significantly smaller than that in Mg2Sn (Fig. S5†). While the RCT values in 3Mg/Mg2Sn varied between 77 and 140 Ω, those in Mg2Sn varied in the range of 500–2500 Ω. This was not surprising becau...
