Towards a Positive Energy District

open access: yes, 2022
Urban neighborhoods that work toward carbon-free, climate-neutral goals, attain a positive energy balance, and aspire for excess renewable energy production are defined as Positive Energy Districts (PEDs). PEDs are designed to contribute to sustainable urban growth, and it is also true that sustainable urban growth can lead to the creation of PEDs ...

Unlocking Ultra‐Long Cycle Stability of Li Metal Electrode by Separators Modified by Porous Red Phosphorus Nanosheets

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Coating the standard polypropylene separator with a porous red phosphorous nanosheet greatly improves cycling performance in Li electrode cells. The phosphorus‐based surface chemistry deactivates electrolyte solvent decomposition and enhances the cleavage of F‐containing salt, resulting in an inorganic‐dominated electrolyte interphase (SEI) composition
