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

Sulfurized polyacrylonitrile (SPAN) is investigated as a cathode for room‐temperature Na–S batteries in ether‐based electrolytes under controlled discharge depths. Depth‐of‐discharge‐dependent structural evolution reveals that deep discharge below 1.0 V destabilizes SPAN structure, alters polysulfide equilibria, and promotes sodium dendrite formation ...

This study reports a packaging strategy for perovskite photovoltaic devices using atomic layer deposition (ALD) of aluminum oxide. Through optimization of deposition temperature and oxidant chemistry, researchers develop a 50 nm barrier layer with superior water vapor (WVTR) and oxygen transmission rates (OTR).

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 ...
