Plasmon-enhanced sensitization of singlet oxygen on silver island films

open access: yesBulletin of the Karaganda University "Physics Series"
The influence of the plasmonic effect of silver island films on the absorption, fluorescence and long-term luminescence of rose bengal in polyvinyl butyral films has been studied. Under the plasmon effect, the optical density of the dye increased by 3.3 times, the fluorescence intensity by 8.5 times, and the long-lived fluorescence and phosphorescence ...

NCAR Arts Vibrancy Index: Hotbeds of America's Arts and Culture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
What factors make up a community's arts vibrancy, and which cities possess them? While the complex mixture of attributes is a large puzzle to piece together, it is increasingly sought after by civic leaders, funders and policy makers.

From Materials to Systems: Challenges and Solutions for Fast‐Charge/Discharge Na‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This review systematically analyzes the key characteristics limiting the fast‐charge/discharge capability of Na‐ion batteries (SIBs) from a multi‐scale perspective encompassing electrode materials, the electrode‐electrolyte interface, and the system. Furthermore, it presents practical solution strategies for the fundamental issues arising at each scale,

Operando X‐Ray Diffraction and Total Scattering Characterization of Battery Materials: Not Just a Pretty Picture

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This review focuses on operando studies of battery materials by X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and total X‐ray scattering (TXS). This work highlights potential pitfalls and identify best‐practices for operando studies and reviews some unusual experiments to illustrate how these methods can be applied beyond the evaluation of the early‐stage cycling mechanisms

Emerging Materials and Future Strategies for Solid Oxide Electrochemical Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Solid oxide electrochemical cells operate under strongly coupled electrochemical and thermodynamic conditions, where performance is constrained by interactions among crystal structure, defect chemistry, and interfacial evolution. This review, based on a structure‐defect‐property‐durability framework, reveals the roles of lattice symmetry and defect ...

Synthetic Surface Design of Transparent Electrodes for Enhanced Molecular Contact in Perovskite Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
A simple solution‐based ITO surface treatment unlocks the full potential of phosphonic‐acid SAMs by balancing surface hydroxylation, conductivity, and homogeneity. Moderately hydroxylated interfaces yield uniform, electronically favourable contacts, enhancing charge extraction, stability, and thermal‐cycling resilience, with broad applicability across ...

Atomistic Insights Into Lithium Alloying and Crystallization at Metal Interlayers in Zero‐Excess Lithium Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Molecular dynamics simulations with machine learning potentials, combined with experiments, reveal how interlayer metals govern Li alloying and crystallization in zero‐excess lithium batteries. Mg and Zn promote solid‐solution alloy‐mediated pathways that influence Li diffusion and structural uniformity, while Bi forms ordered intermetallics with more ...

Molecular Design and Interfacial Functions of Self‐Assembled Monolayers for Perovskite and Tandem Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
We identify two decisive levers for SAM interfaces: molecular design (carboxylic acid‐based, phosphonic acid, other anchoring chemistries, and polymeric SAMs) and mixing routes (co‐assembly, in situ assembly, pre‐ and post‐treatment). Coordinated tuning of headgroups and assembly pathways optimises energy alignment and film formation, suppresses ...
