Degradation Mechanism of Phosphate‐Based Li‐NASICON Conductors in Alkaline Environment

Advanced Energy Materials, Volume 15, Issue 11, March 18, 2025.
The presence of water in the cathode of a Li‐air battery shifts reactions to produce LiOH, creating a corrosive, alkaline environment. This study investigates the alkaline stability of the common Li‐NASICON solid‐state conductor chemistries through a systematic experimental study combined with computational modeling to understand the degradation ...

Stretchable Energy Storage with Eutectic Gallium Indium Alloy

Advanced Energy Materials, Volume 15, Issue 11, March 18, 2025.
A highly stretchable liquid metal‐based electrode is developed via a one‐step process, retaining conductivity and capacitance after mechanical deformation up to 900% strain. The stretchable all‐solid‐state device provides a areal energy density of 43 µWh cm⁻2 after 150% strain.

Breaking the Durability–Power Trade‐Off: Boron‐Directed Faceted O3 Cathodes for High‐Rate Sodium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Boron‐oxide‐assisted particle engineering stabilizes O3‐type layered cathodes for sodium‐ion batteries by mitigating phase transitions and lattice strain. Acting as flux and structural modifier, boron forms submicron hexagonal platelets with (003) facets and expanded Na‐layer spacing, enabling rapid Na⁺ diffusion and mechanical resilience.

Engineering Na‐Rich P2‐Type Layered Oxides Through Li/Ti Dual Doping for Oxygen Redox Activation and Superior Structural Stability

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
P2‐type sodium layered oxides have potential for high‐voltage operation but suffer from structural instability and capacity fading. This work demonstrates that synergistic Li and Ti co‐doping enhances sodium inventory, suppresses detrimental phase transitions, and activates reversible lattice oxygen redox.

Fundamental Understanding of Oxidative Stability in Fluorinated Asymmetric Ethers for Li Batteries

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
To improve Li‐metal battery electrolytes, we analyze fluorinated 1‐ethoxy‐2‐methoxyethane (FxEME) oxidative stability via density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD). Fluorination strengthens ethoxy C–H bonds and alters solvent orientation at the cathode, weakening interfacial interactions.

Atomistic Insights Into Lithium Alloying and Crystallization at Metal Interlayers in Zero‐Excess Lithium Batteries

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Molecular dynamics simulations with machine learning potentials, combined with experiments, reveal how interlayer metals govern Li alloying and crystallization in zero‐excess lithium batteries. Mg and Zn promote solid‐solution alloy‐mediated pathways that influence Li diffusion and structural uniformity, while Bi forms ordered intermetallics with more ...

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

Comment on “Can Charge Transfer Across C─H···O Hydrogen Bonds Stabilize Oil Droplets in Water?”

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Nanoscale oil droplets in water are kinetically stable and charged, with a pH dependent electrophoretic mobility. Although the source of this charge is agreed to arise from water, 2 main hypotheses remain: OH− adsorption or electronic charge density displaced via hydrogen bonds. Molecular surface specific experiments are reviewed, that all point to the
