TiNb2O7 (TNO) is regarded as a potential anode material for its high capacity compared to Li4Ti5O12 and high safety due to its adequate Fermi level in lithium-ion batteries. This work represents a promising method of modifying the electrode, which includes polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), conductive carbon, and TiNb2O7, using an atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPj) treatment. Our results reveal that atmospheric pressure plasma jet improves the electrochemical performance by N-doped decoration on conductive carbon, electrolyte wettability enhancement on polyvinylidene fluoride binder, and defects manufacturing in TiNb2O7 anode materials. Good wettability of surface free energy to 44.6 mJ/m2 in the APPj-treated (APP-10) sample contributes to improved cycling performance. Both N-doped carbon and modified TiNb2O7 promote the high-rate capability. The C-rate performance of APP-10 improves by over 200 % at 10C compared to the non-treated sample (APP-0). APP-10 sample also shows 81.9 % retention after 300 cycles at 1C. The formation of Li3N or LiNxOy after cycling due to the nitro-group in the electrode with atmospheric pressure plasma jet offers good protection and high ionic-conductivity interface. This work demonstrates a potential solution to achieve a roll-to-roll modification without any complex synthesis processes, which is a promising technology for the affordable manufacturing of lithium-ion battery. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.

Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is brittle, however, its atomic-scale structural engineering can lead to unprecedented physical properties. Here we report the bulk synthesis of high-density crystalline h-BN solids by using high-temperature spark plasma sintering (SPS) of micron size h-BN powders. In addition to the high mechanical strength and ductile response of such materials, we have obtained anomalous values of dielectric constant beyond theoretical limits, high thermal conductivity, and exceptional neutron radiation shielding capability. Through exhaustive characterizations we reveal that SPS induces non-basal plane crystallinity, twisting of layers, and facilitates inter-grain fusion with a high degree of in-plane alignment across macroscale dimensions, resulting in near-theoretical density and anomalous properties. Our findings highlight the importance of material design, via new approaches such as twisting and interconnections between atomically thin layers, to create novel ceramics with properties that could go beyond their intrinsic theoretical predictions. © 2024, CC BY.

In this paper, we report on the experimental demonstration of single-slit diffraction exhibited by electrons propagating in encapsulated graphene with an effective de Broglie wavelength corresponding to their attributes as massless Dirac fermions. Nanometer-scale device designs were implemented to fabricate a single-slit followed by five detector paths. Predictive calculations were also utilized to readily understand the observations reported. These calculations required the modeling of wave propagation in ideal case scenarios of the reported device designs to more accurately describe the observed single-slit phenomenon. This experiment was performed at room temperature and 190 K, where data from the latter highlighted the exaggerated asymmetry between electrons and holes, recently ascribed to slightly different Fermi velocities near the K point. This observation and device concept may be used for building diffraction switches with versatile applicability.

Membrane processes such as microfiltration (MF) and ultrafiltration (UF) are known to be the best advanced technologies for water reuse application. Numerous research efforts have been conducted in areas of modifying commercial MF/UF products or synthesizing novel materials promising enhanced oil-water separation performances. Block copolymer (BCP)-based membranes have recently gained increased popularity due to their improved water permeabilities. This study applies a comprehensive testing protocol for performance evaluation of two emerging poly (styrene-block-methyl methacrylate) BCP membranes developed by the project team. Tests mimicking industrial conditions were conducted by using a representative synthetic produced water and operating repeat tests. Both BCP membranes (referred to as A & B) were found to possess high permeabilities of 5538 and 12,424 LMH/bar, respectively. Membrane B showed higher organic rejection at 79% against 74% rejection obtained for membrane A. The novel membranes were then compared to a relevant commercial product. Lower permeability at 3831 LMH/bar and slightly higher rejection performance (within ~ 10%) were obtained for the commercial membrane as compared to the BCP membranes. Test results obtained for those novel membranes being still in the development stage will be utilized in future studies investigating further optimization of the membrane structure and oil-water separation performance.

Lithium (Li) metal anodes are essential for developing next-generation high-energy-density batteries. Numerous concerns on the potential safety hazards of the Li metal have been brought up before its massive application in commercialized battery packs. However, few investigations have been performed to systematically evaluate the reactivity of Li metal anode in full cell level. Here, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) with in situ Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) are used to quantitatively investigate the Li metal reactivity. Lithiated graphite (Li-Gr) and lithiated silicon (Li-Si) are also studied as the comparison samples. The reactivity of the plated Li when coupled with different electrolyte composition, morphology, and atmosphere is systematically studied. More importantly, the reactivity of Li metal full cell with different cathode materials (NMC622, LFP and LNMO) has been compared. It was found that all cell components, including electrolyte composition, Li morphology, the control of inactive Li accumulation and cathode stability, are essential in controlling the reactivity of the plated Li. After optimizing these conditions, the Li metal full cell shows no significant thermal reaction up to 400°C. This work identifies the key parameters in controlling the reactivity of the plated Li and may facilitate lithium metal battery design and manufacturing in the coming future. © 2023, CC BY.

The field of one-dimensional semiconducting materials holds a wide variety of captivating applications, such as photovoltaic cells, electronic devices, catalysis cells, lasers, and more. The tunability of electrical, mechanical, or optical attributes of a semiconductor crystal relies on the ability to control and pattern the crystal’s growth direction, orientation, and dimensions. In this study, we harvest the unique properties of crystallographic defects in Au substrates, specifically twin boundaries, to fabricate selective epitaxial growth of semiconducting nanocrystals. Different crystallographic defects were previously shown to enhance materials properties, such as, screw dislocations providing spiral crystal growth, dislocation outcrops, and vacancies increasing their catalytic activity, dislocation strengthening, and atomic doping changing the crystal’s electrical properties. Here, we present a unique phenomenon of directed growth of semiconductor crystals of gold(I)-cyanide (AuCN) on the surface of thin Au layers, using traces of deformation twins on the surface. We show that emergence of deformation twins to the {111} Au surface leads to the formation of ledges, exposing new {001} and {111} facets on the surface. We propose that this phenomenon leads to epitaxial growth of AuCN on the freshly exposed {111} facets of the twin boundary trace ledges. Specific orientations of the twin boundaries with respect to the Au surface allow for patterned growth of AuCN in the <110> orientations. Nano-scale patterning of AuCN semiconductors may provide an avenue for property tuning, particularly the band gap acquired. © 2023 National Academy of sciences. All rights reserved.

Background: LZ91 Magnesium alloy with a dual-phase structure has improved mechanical properties and a low density of about 1.48 g/cm3 but their limited resistance to corrosion limits their application. Therefore, it is a great challenge to increase the stability of LZ91 alloys under corrosive factors and environments. Methods: This study uses micro-arc oxidation (MAO) and an electroless nickel-phosphorus (Ni-P) plated composite film to increase the corrosion resistance of LZ91 magnesium alloy. Before electroless Ni-P plating, the MAO layers are activated by palladium catalysts at different pH values to produce composite coatings. SEM, EDS and Image J are used to determine the surface properties and elemental composition of the samples. The corrosion resistance is measured using a potentiodynamic polarization test and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution. Findings: The results show that the MAO coating is activated by an acid catalyst and the surface is obviously corroded. The electroless Ni-P plating grows into the MAO coating and the substrate corrodes. Therefore, corrosive medium (chloride ion) easily enter to the substrate and pitting corrosion occurred. On the contrary, activation by a neutral catalyst (pH=7) maintains the original structure of the MAO coating and provides a good bonding interface for the Ni-P coating. Form the potentiodynamic analysis can be finds that the corrosion potential for the neutral catalyst treated sample is -0.35V and the corrosion current density value is 1.77×10−6 A/cm2, so the corrosion characteristic become better than the acid catalyst treated samples. In terms of the long-term resistance after 48 h, EIS analysis shows that the resistance value remains at about 7.6×104 Ω•cm2. A composite coating that is compact and with excellent resistance to corrosion resistance is produced, which provides better protection for LZ91 magnesium alloys. © 2023 Taiwan Institute of Chemical Engineers

Chemical additives to perovskite precursors constitute a predominant route to passivate defects in perovskite films and improve carrier charge dynamics. In this work, ionic liquids (ILs) with chloride and iodide anions are used as additives for bulk passivation of perovskite films. The ionic liquids in the form of 1‑butyl‑4-methylpyradinium iodide (IL-I) and 1-ethylimidazolium chloride (IL-Cl) are mixed individually with a precursor of Cesium Formamidinium Lead Triiodide and Methylammonium Chloride (CsFAPbI3−MACl). The decay of charge carriers within the perovskite film before and after passivation with ILs was measured by Time Resolved Photoluminescence Spectroscopy (TRPL). The effect of added ILs on the recombination rate of the photocarriers was investigated by analyzing the decay of the TRPL signal in all samples. The average lifetimes obtained within one day of preparations were 79 ns, 73 ns and 275 ns for pristine perovskite, IL-I passivated perovskite and IL-Cl passivated perovskite films, respectively. These values show that the presence of the IL with chloride anion greatly improves the average lifetime of the charge carrier by around 250%, while IL with iodide anion decreased the lifetime by 32% as compared with the pristine perovskite sample. This finding renders the IL-Cl passivated perovskite films as a valuable resource in applications ranging from photoelectric to hydrogen generation devices. © 2023

The early history of Earth is poorly understood,due to the lack of ancient rocks formed after the formation of the newborn Earth,especiallyfor thefirst 500 million years(Hadean Eon).To our knowledge,this period is the most geodynamically vigorous in the crustal evolution history of Earth[1],and is characterized by intense collision with meteorites and the formation of a global magma ocean(~4.41 Ga;*** article by Ref.[2]).

Grain boundary structural transitions can lead to significant changes in the properties and performance of materials. In multi-principal element alloys, understanding these transitions becomes complex due to phenomena such as local chemical ordering and multi-component segregation. Using atomistic simulations, we explore a metastable-to-equilibrium grain boundary structural transition in NbMoTaW. The transition, characterized by structural disordering and reduced free volume, shows high sensitivity to its local chemical environment. Most notably, the transition temperature range of the alloy is more than twice that of a pure metal. Differences in composition between coexisting metastable and equilibrium structures highlight the change in local site availability due to structural relaxation. Further examination of grain boundaries with fixed chemical states at varying temperatures reveals that the amount of segregation significantly influences the onset temperature yet has minimal effect on the transition width. These insights underscore the profound effect of chemical complexity and ordering on grain boundary transitions in complex concentrated alloys, marking a meaningful advancement in our understanding of grain boundary behavior at the atomic level.
