Ultrafast characterization of the electron injection from CdSe quantum dots and dye N719 co-sensitizers into TiO2 using sulfide based ionic liquid for enhanced long term stability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Combination of inorganic quantum dots (QDs) and organic/metallorganic dyes as supracollectors nanocomposites could have an important role on the development of efficient photovoltaic devices based on the synergistic action of the hybrid-sensitizers. Here

Liquid‐Catalyst‐Activated Sparingly Solvating Electrolytes for Low‐Temperature Potassium‐Sulfur Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This study develops a novel sparingly solvating electrolyte for potassium–sulfur batteries, utilizing tetrahydrofuran (THF) to induce an anion‐dominated solvation structure that eases polysulfide shuttling and forms an inorganic‐rich solid–electrolyte interphases (SEI). Dimethyl diselenide (DMDSe) accelerates quasi‐solid‐state transformations, reducing

Silicon‐Based Anodes for Sulfide Solid‐State Batteries: Failure Mechanisms and Multiscale Design Strategies

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Silicon anodes in sulfide SSBs face coupled electrochemo‐mechanical failure by interface instability. This review examined recent advances and proposed mitigation strategies via material‐, electrode/interface‐, and cell‐level‐ engineering. We further evaluate scalable synthesis of sulfide SEs.

Reaction kinetics model in liquid and solid phases and its parameterization for room temperature sodium–sulfur battery

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract A multipore, multiphase, continuum model is assembled for the first time for room temperature sodium–sulfur (RT Na–S) batteries, with Na+ ion transport and redox reactions in the liquid electrolyte phase and semisolid phase of precipitates softened by the electrolyte solvent, as guided by molecular dynamics simulations in this study ...

Fuel containment, lightning protection and damage tolerance in large composite primary aircraft structures [PDF]

open access: yes
The damage-tolerance characteristics of high strain-to-failure graphite fibers and toughened resins were evaluated. Test results show that conventional fuel tank sealing techniques are applicable to composite structures.

In situ wrapping of the cathode material in lithium-sulfur batteries

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
To suppress the polysulfide shuttling effect in Li-S batteries, here the authors report a carbon/sulfur composite cathode with a wrapping layer that overcomes the trade-off between limiting polysulfide diffusion and allowing electrolyte infiltration, and

Solubility, stability, and electrochemical studies of sulfur-sulfide solutions in organic solvents [PDF]

open access: yes
A preliminary study of the sulfur electrode in organic solvents suggests that the system warrants further investigation for use in a low temperature (100 deg to 120 C) Na-S secondary battery.
