Tailoring the Electrochemical Performance of SnO2‐Based Anodes for Li‐Ion Batteries: Effect of Morphology and Composite Matrix

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Three different composite anodes, based on SnO2, are investigated as potential anode materials for lithium‐ion batteries. Three different strategies are employed to stabilize SnO2 upon cycling i.e., i) use of an inorganic matrix (TiO2), ii) use of an amorphous carbon matrix, and iii) use of SnO2 with a tailored morphology (nanorod) and a carbon coating.

A CANDIDATE PLANETARY-MASS OBJECT WITH A PHOTOEVAPORATING DISK IN ORION [PDF]

, 2016
In this work, we report the discovery of a candidate planetary-mass object with a photoevaporating protoplanetary disk, Proplyd 133-353, which is near the massive star θ1 Ori C at the center of the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC). The object was known to have

Chiral Sensing of Amino Acids under Visible Light via Hydroxypropyl Cellulose Gels

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Hydroxypropyl cellulose gels enable visible‐light‐based chiral detection of amino acid enantiomers. This study showcases their structural color properties for distinguishing phenylalanine and alanine enantiomers. The gels exhibit pH‐responsive color changes, high sensitivity at low concentrations (0.2 wt.%), and long‐term stability, offering ...

ON THE ORIGIN OF THE SUB-JOVIAN DESERT IN THE ORBITAL-PERIOD–PLANETARY-MASS PLANE [PDF]

, 2016
Transit and radial velocity observations indicate a dearth of sub-Jupiter-mass planets on short-period orbits, outlined roughly by two oppositely sloped lines in the period–mass plane.

Functional Optical Fibers with Tailored Side Emission from Modified Rod‐in‐Tube Preforms

Advanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
A modified rod‐in‐tube method enables fabrication of functional optical fibers with tailored light‐diffusing properties. The approach incorporates optically active species at a well‐defined radial position within an otherwise homogeneous fiber core. Using lanthanide ions and noble metal nanoparticles as active species demonstrates wavelength conversion

The Global Warming Potential of Geoengineering via Radiative Cooling

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
The cooling power of engineered radiative cooling materials is determined and compared to conventional construction and roofing materials and Earth's natural surfaces. Results show if 1% of Earth's surface are to be covered with state‐of‐the‐art radiative cooling materials the terrestrial radiative forcing would decrease by 1.61 W·m−2 (from 0.6 to −1 ...

Study on SMA driven hopper design for planetary exploration

Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2018
This paper studies the feasibility of a hopper for planetary exploration rovers. The proposed hopper is designed based on shape memory alloy(SMA) actuators, because SMA actuators are light in mass compared with traditional electric motors.
