Photochemically driven solid electrolyte interphase for extremely fast-charging lithium-ion batteries

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Extremely fast charging such as charging 80% of capacity within 15 min is a pressing requirement for current lithium-ion battery technology. Here the authors achieve this by incorporating an artificial solid-electrolyte interphase rich in inorganic ...

Application of electro-active biofilms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The concept of an electro-active biofilm (EAB) has recently emerged from a few studies that discovered that certain bacteria which form biofilms on conductive materials can achieve a direct electrochemical connection with the electrode surface using it ...

Nucleation mechanism for the direct graphite-to-diamond phase transition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Graphite and diamond have comparable free energies, yet forming diamond from graphite is far from easy. In the absence of a catalyst, pressures that are significantly higher than the equilibrium coexistence pressures are required to induce the graphite ...

Renewable sustainable biocatalyzed electricity production in a photosynthetic algal microbial fuel cell (PAMFC) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Electricity production via solar energy capturing by living higher plants and microalgae in combination with microbial fuel cells are attractive because these systems promise to generate useful energy in a renewable, sustainable, and efficient manner ...

First-Principles-Based Dispersion Augmented Density Functional Theory: From Molecules to Crystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Standard implementations of density functional theory (DFT) describe well strongly bound molecules and solids but fail to describe long-range van der Waals attractions.

In situ 3D characterization of fatigue cracks displacement fields [PDF]

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2013
The three dimensional growth of fatigue cracks in samples of nodular graphite cast iron is characterized using laboratory X-ray computed tomography. The cracks grow from laser machined artificial defects, their development is monitored in situ using ...

Understanding the negative thermal expansion in planar graphite–metal composites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The addition of graphitic fibers and flakes as fillers is commonly used to control the thermal expansion of metals. Sintered metal matrix composites with a planar distribution of graphite flakes show a low or negative thermal expansion coefficient ...

Formation of Conductive Networks in Polysulfone Filled with Graphite-Derived Materials

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Composites based on polysulfone materials filled with various types of graphite and carbon black were studied and a solution technique was used to create composite materials with filling degrees ranging from 30 to 70% by weight.

Graphite Optics—Current Opportunities, Properties and Limits

open access: yesCondensed Matter, 2019
X-ray graphite optics consists of thin layers of Pyrolytic Graphite (PG) attached to a substrate of focusing shape. Pyrolytic Graphite is a perfect artificial graphite obtained by annealing of carbon deposit at temperatures about 3000 °C under ...
