Crossover Effects of Transition‐Metal Ions on Lithium‐Metal Anode in Localized High Concentration Electrolytes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study highlights the impact of transition‐metal (TM) ions (Ni2⁺, Mn2⁺, Co2⁺) on the performance of lithium‐metal anode in localized high‐concentration electrolytes. Mn2⁺ and Co2⁺ destabilize SEI and CEI layers, causing capacity fade and overpotential, while Ni2⁺ shows minimal effects. These findings underscore the need for electrolyte optimization

Natural diversity screening, assay development, and characterization of nylon-6 enzymatic depolymerization

open access: yesNature Communications
Successes in biocatalytic polyester recycling have raised the possibility of deconstructing alternative polymers enzymatically, with polyamide (PA) being a logical target due to the array of amide-cleaving enzymes present in nature.

Renewable Energy-Aware Inter-datacenter Virtual Machine Migration over Elastic Optical Networks [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
Datacenters (DCs) are deployed in a large scale to support the ever increasing demand for data processing to support various applications. The energy consumption of DCs becomes a critical issue. Powering DCs with renewable energy can effectively reduce the brown energy consumption and thus alleviates the energy consumption problem.

Na2S Presodiation Enables Long Cycling Anode‐Free Sodium Batteries via Rapid Spontaneous Reactions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Na2S with high sodium content is utilized as a sodium replenishment material for AFSBs. The spontaneous reaction between polysulfides and Na3−xV2(PO4)3, complete conversion from Na2S to sulfur is achieved under low voltage and catalyst‐free conditions. With the assistance of the additionally supplied sodium ions, the Na2S@NVP||Zn AFSBs retain 70.8% of ...
