Fe3O4-doped mesoporous carbon cathode with a plumber’s nightmare structure for high-performance Li-S batteries

Nature Communications
Shuttling of lithium polysulfides and slow redox kinetics seriously limit the rate and cycling performance of lithium-sulfur batteries. In this study, Fe3O4-dopped carbon cubosomes with a plumber’s nightmare structure (SP-Fe3O4-C) are prepared as sulfur ...

Regulating Phase Evolution and Crystallization Dynamics Enables Low Open‐Circuit Voltage Deficit in Wide‐Bandgap Cu2ZnSnS4 Solar Cells

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bilayer composition‐modulated sulfurization (BCMS) regulates Cu redistribution in solution‐processed Cu2ZnSnS4, suppressing Cu2SnS3 and favoring the direct transformation pathway, while transforming the crystallization from surface‐dominated growth to a more synchronized process.

Ultra-long-term cycling stability of an integrated carbon–sulfur membrane with dual shuttle-inhibiting layers of graphene “nets” and a porous carbon skin

, 2018
An integrated carbon–sulfur membrane (CSG/PC) with dual “shuttle-inhibiting” layers of graphene “nets” and a porous carbon (PC) skin can overcome the poor cycling performance of lithium–sulfur batteries.

How “Green” is Your Functional Material? Assessing Environmental Impacts of Multi‐Step Synthetic Protocols in Material Sciences at Various Technology Levels

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Environmental Synthesis Radar (ESR) evaluates the environmental impact of (early‐stage) multi‐step chemical syntheses, providing a holistic view by using 18 midpoint impact categories. Unlike conventional life‐cycle assessment (LCA) approaches, ESR reveals three complementary metrics: overall impact Vtotal, environmental hotspots VEF, and critical ...

Decoding microbial diversity, biogeochemical functions, and interaction potentials in red sea hydrothermal vents

Environmental Microbiome
Background Hydrothermal vents along mid-ocean ridges host diverse microbial communities and are crucial to global elemental cycling. The Red Sea, known for its unique environmental conditions—including low nutrient levels, high year-round temperatures ...

A Thermoreversible Gelation Pathway to Plant Cuticle‐Inspired Biopolymer Aerogel Monoliths Based on Network‐Spherulitic Crystal Assemblies

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
To address functionality limitations in plant‐based and industrially compostable polymer aerogels, this work introduces bio‐inspired aerogels with broadened functionality. Inspired by functional plant tissues, lightweight biopolymer aerogels based on exclusively stereocomplex crystals are fabricated, featuring hierarchically macro‐/meso‐porous ...

Improved Cycling Performance of Lithium–Sulfur Cell through Supramolecular Interactions

, 2018
Commercialization of lithium–sulfur batteries is plagued by poor electronic conductivity of elemental sulfur, shuttling of polysulfides, and poor interfacial properties of lithium metal anodes with nonaqueous electrolytes. Although numerous attempts have
