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...
Hermitian Yang–Mills Connections on Blowups
Consider a vector bundle over a Kähler manifold which admits a Hermitian Yang-Mills connection. We show that the pullback bundle on the blowup of the Kähler manifold at a collection of points also admits a Hermitian Yang-Mills...
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...
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...
Yang-Mills as massive Chern-Simons theory
The Yang-Mills (YM) equation in three spacetime dimensions (3D) can be modified to include a novel parity-preserving interaction term, with an inverse mass parameter, in addition to a possible topological mass term. The novelty...
Insights into the Origin of High Activity of Ni<sub>5</sub>P<sub>4</sub>(0001) for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction.
Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is directly relevant to green hydrogen production from water splitting. Recently, a low-cost Ni5P4 material has been demonstrated experimentally and theoretically to...

Design and Characterization of a Novel Core–Shell Nano Delivery System Based on Zein and Carboxymethylated Short-Chain Amylose for Encapsulation of Curcumin

Curcumin is a naturally occurring hydrophobic polyphenolic compound with a rapid metabolism, poor absorption, and low stability, which severely limits its bioavailability. Here, we employed a starch–protein-based nanoparticle...

Inverse Problem for the Yang–Mills Equations
Abstract: We show that a connection can be recovered up to gauge from source-to-solution type data associated with the Yang–Mills equations in Minkowski space R1+3. Our proof analyzes the principal symbols of waves generated by...
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...

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...

Genomic Mutation Profile of Primary Gastrointestinal Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma.
Primary gastrointestinal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (GI-DLBCL) is the most common gastrointestinal lymphoma, but its genetic features are poorly understood. We performed whole-exome sequencing of 25 primary tumor samples from...

Force-reversible chemical reaction at ambient temperature for designing toughened dynamic covalent polymer networks.
Force-reversible C-N bonds, resulting from the click chemistry reaction between triazolinedione (TAD) and indole derivatives, offer exciting opportunities for molecular-level engineering to design materials that respond to...
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...
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...
