, 2019 Evidence from experimental infection studies has shown that infected mosquitoes exhibit altered host-seeking behaviours, with suppression and activation of behaviours dependent on the parasite’s development stage. The mechanisms are poorly characterised;

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.Herein, we propose a straightforward and efficacious strategy of surface modification for P2‐type Na0.7Li0.03Mg0.03Ni0.27Mn0.6Ti0.07O2 cathode in high‐voltage Na‐ion batteries. The stable amorphous SiO2 coating layer on the cathode surface contributes to a strong, dense, fluorine and silicon‐rich cathode–electrolyte interphase, which inhibits the side ...

Fuelling flight in a parasitic wasp: Which energetic substrate to use?
, 2012 1. Flight is an energy-demanding behaviour in insects. In parasitic wasps, strategies of nutrient acquisition and allocation, resulting life-history trade-offs and relationships with foraging strategies and resource availability have received much ...

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.This review provides a comprehensive and systematic overview of the multifunctional design strategies for solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs), a pivotal component for enabling high‐performance all‐solid‐state batteries (ASSBs). It begins with a detailed classification of SPE systems and elaborates on their respective molecular design principles. The work

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.We elucidate the fundamental influences of polymer polarity on Li+ ionic environments in solid polymer electrolytes by considering four critical components: Li+, FSI−, residual solvents, and polymer matrix. Beyond facilitating LiFSI dissociation and Li+ transport, our findings underscore previously overlooked roles of polymer polarity, thereby ...
