High-contrast imaging of Sirius~A with VLT/SPHERE: Looking for giant planets down to one astronomical unit [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Sirius has always attracted a lot of scientific interest, especially after the discovery of a companion white dwarf at the end of the 19th century. Very early on, the existence of a potential third body was put forward to explain some of the observed ...

Search for cool extrasolar giant planets combining coronagraphy, spectral and angular differential imaging

open access: yes, 2013
Spectral differential imaging (SDI) is part of the observing strategy of current and on-going high-contrast imaging instruments on ground-based telescopes. Although it improves the star light rejection, SDI attenuates the signature of off-axis companions

Multiscale Carbon‐Integrated Silicon Anode for Stable Cycling Under Practical Lithium‐Ion Battery Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
To overcome silicon anode instability, a hierarchical silicon/carbon composite fabricated from industrial waste via a scalable milling process is demonstrated. In‐depth post‐mortem analysis reveals how functional carbons—a CNT network and graphene shell—synergistically suppress degradation. This robust design delivers outstanding stability in practical

Electrochemical Stabilization of Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) via Electronic Band Engineering Enables Long‐Life, High‐Energy‐Density Li‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Frontier orbital energy engineering of PTFE by incorporating electron‐withdrawing oxygen‐ and nitrogen‐containing functional groups alters the local electronic environment and elevates the LUMO energy. This molecular modification strategy suppresses reduction‐induced side reactions in dry‐processed anodes.
