Unprecedented strong and reversible atomic orbital hybridization enables a highly stable Li-S battery.
The shuttle effect and excessive volume change of the sulfur cathode severely impede the industrial implementation of Li-S batteries. It is still highly challenging to find an efficient way to suppress the shuttle effect and...
DFT Simulation-Based Design of 1T-MoS2 Cathode Hosts for Li-S Batteries and Experimental Evaluation.
The main challenge in lithium sulphur (Li-S) batteries is the shuttling of lithium polysulphides (LiPSs) caused by the rapid LiPSs migration to the anode and the slow reaction kinetics in the chain of LiPSs conversion. In this...

If Her Majesty’s Ministers sign this treaty [to enter the European Economic Communities] and Parliament enacts provisions to implement it, I do not envisage that Parliament would afterwards go back on it and try to withdraw from...
Structure Prediction of Li--Sn and Li--Sb Intermetallics for Lithium-ion Batteries Anodes.
M Mayo, AJ Morris
Jul 04, 2017
A variety of new stable and metastable Li–Sn and Li–Sb intermetallics are presented using the ab initio random structure searching (AIRSS) and species swapping methods. There include LiSn2–P4/mmm, Li2Sn3–P-1, Li7Sn9–P42/n...
Quantitatively analyzing the failure processes of rechargeable Li metal batteries.
Practical use of lithium (Li) metal for high–energy density lithium metal batteries has been prevented by the continuous formation of Li dendrites, electrochemically isolated Li metal, and the irreversible formation of solid...
Structural and mechanistic insights into fast lithium-ion conduction in Li<sub>4</sub>SiO<sub>4</sub>-Li<sub>3</sub>PO<sub>4 </sub>solid electrolytes

Solid electrolytes that are chemically stable and have a high ionic conductivity would dramatically enhance the safety and operating lifespan of rechargeable lithium batteries. Here, we apply a multi-technique approach to the...

An Analysis of the Willingness to the COVID-19 Vaccine Booster Shots among Urban Employees
Many studies have shown that urban workers may have a higher acceptance rate of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) vaccine uptake compared to their rural counterparts. As Omicron spreads globally, the COVID-19 booster vaccination...
Local charge inhomogeneity and lithium distribution in the superionic argyrodites Li<sub>6</sub>PS<sub>5</sub><i>X</i> (<i>X</i> = Cl, Br, I)
The lithium-argyrodites Li6PS5X (X = Cl, Br, I) exhibit high lithium-ion conductivities, making them promising candidates for use in solid-state batteries. These solid electrolytes can show...
CT/MRI LI-RADS v2018 vs. CEUS LI-RADS v2017-Can Things Be Put Together?
Different LI-RADS core documents were released for CEUS and for CT/MRI. Both documents rely on major and ancillary diagnostic criteria. The present paper offers an exhaustive comparison of the two documents focusing on the...

Iron, oxidative stress and the example of solar ultraviolet A radiation
Iron has outstanding biological importance as it is required for a wide variety of essential cellular processes and, as such, is a vital nutrient. The element holds this central position by virtue of its facile redox chemistry...

Mg<inf>x</inf>Mn<inf>2-x</inf>B<inf>2</inf>O<inf>5</inf> Pyroborates (2/3 ≤ x ≤ 4/3)
MgMnB2O5, Mg2/3Mn4/3B2O5, and Mg4/3Mn2/3B2O5 pyroborates have been prepared via a ceramic method. When charging MgMnB2O5 vs Li, all of the Mg2+ can be removed, and with subsequent cycles, 1.4 Li ions, corresponding to a capacity...
Expanding the active charge carriers of polymer electrolytes in lithium-based batteries using an anion-hosting cathode.
Ionic-conductive polymers are appealing electrolyte materials for solid-state lithium-based batteries. However, these polymers are detrimentally affected by the electrochemically-inactive anion migration that limits the ionic...
Native Defects and their Doping Response in the Lithium Solid Electrolyte Li<sub>7</sub>La<sub>3</sub>Zr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>12</sub>

The Li-stuffed garnets Li xM 2M3′O 12 are promising Li-ion solid electrolytes with potential use in solid-state batteries. One strategy for optimizing ionic conductivities in these materials...

Towards prediction of ordered phases in rechargeable battery chemistry via group–subgroup transformation
AbstractThe electrochemical thermodynamic and kinetic characteristics of rechargeable batteries are critically influenced by the ordering of mobile ions in electrodes or solid electrolytes....

Miners, masculinity and the ‘Bataille du Charbon’ in France 1944-48
Hanna Diamond
Feb 01, 2011
In 1944, the French provisional government, backed by the Parti communiste franais and the Confdration gnrale du travail, undertook an aggressive propaganda campaign to persuade miners to embark upon a 'battle for coal' which...
