Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Despite its promise for producing metastable materials, the mechanisms underlying solid‐state microwave synthesis remain poorly understood. By combining in situ thermography with x‐ray diffraction and solid‐state NMR, this study uncovers a surprising order–disorder–order reaction pathway during the microwave synthesis of the Li1.1Mn0.9O1.9F0.1${\rm Li ...

A Quantitative Lithium Inventory Framework for Anode‐Free Lithium Metal Batteries
Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.A component‐resolved lithium inventory framework quantitatively tracks Li redistribution across the cell in anode‐free NMC622||Cu pouch cells throughout cycling. Three sequential degradation stages are identified: formation‐driven cathode Li depletion, midlife inactive Li0 accumulation, and late‐stage runaway SEI thickening. The cathode, as the sole Li

Chelation Drives Surface Substitution in Hybrid‐MXenes
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.We demonstrate ethylenediamine‐derived bidentate binding on Ti3C2 by controlled deprotonation of ─NH2 groups during reaction with Ti3C2Br2. XRD, XPS, ssNMR, STEM, DFT, and INS confirm the bidentate coordination and the superior stability of chelating modes, while AIMD reveals proton transfer and new surface imine–Ti bonding mode.

Tracking Dynamic Sulfur Electrochemistry by Operando Techniques in Alkali Metal‐Sulfur Batteries
Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.Dynamic sulfur electrochemistry in alkali metal‐sulfur batteries is tracked through operando spectroscopy, scattering, imaging, and modelling. This Review connects sulfur reaction pathways, polysulfide transport, electrolyte/interphase evolution, anode chemistry, and quantitative mechanistic analysis across Li‐S, Na‐S, and K‐S batteries, providing ...

Solution Synthesis of Actinide Chalcogenide and Oxychalcogenide Nanoparticles
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.We report the synthesis of UOS, UOSe, and US2 nanoparticles under colloidal conditions. The magnetic properties were measured of all three materials and compared to prior studies of UO2 nanoparticles. Nanoparticle phases were determined using powder diffraction, and size by transmission electron microscopy.
