Enhancing Low‐Temperature Performance of Sodium‐Ion Batteries via Anion‐Solvent Interactions
DOL is introduced into electrolytes as a co‐solvent, increasing slat solubility, ion conductivity, and the de‐solvent process, and forming an anion‐rich solvent shell due to its high interaction with anion. With the above virtues, the batteries using this electrolyte exhibit excellent cycling stability at low temperatures. Abstract Sodium‐ion batteries

Dual-pulse laser induced breakdown spectroscopy in the vacuum ultraviolet with ambient gas: spectroscopic analysis and optimization of limit of detection of carbon and sulfur in steel [PDF]
Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) in the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) spectral region was applied to standard steel samples in dual-pulse excitation mode with an ambient gas. Two lasers were employed in collinear geometry, one as an ablation laser (

An all‐in‐one analog AI accelerator is presented, enabling on‐chip training, weight retention, and long‐term inference acceleration. It leverages a BEOL‐integrated CMO/HfOx ReRAM array with low‐voltage operation (<1.5 V), multi‐bit capability over 32 states, low programming noise (10 nS), and near‐ideal weight transfer.

Electron energy-loss spectroscopy: DFT modelling and application to experiment [PDF]
The all-electron density functional theory (DFT) code Wien2k has an established track record of modelling energy-loss near-edge structure (ELNES). The pseudopotential DFT code CASTEP can reproduce results found using Wien2k.

Biomass Native Structure Into Functional Carbon‐Based Catalysts for Fenton‐Like Reactions
This study indicates that eight biomasses with 2D flaky and 1D acicular structures influence surface O types, morphology, defects, N doping, sp2 C, and Co nanoparticles loading in three series of carbon, N‐doped carbon, and cobalt/graphitic carbon. This work identifies how these structural factors impact catalytic pathways, enhancing selective electron

Optical transmission spectroscopy of hot Jupiter atmospheres [PDF]
The field of exoplanet atmospheres has advanced rapidly in the 16 years since the detection of sodium in the atmosphere of HD209458b. Giant planets on short period orbits (`hot Jupiters') have been key to this progression, due to their relatively ...

DNA strands are employed both as dynamic linkers and nanoscale templates for the integration of Ag2S nanoparticles on MoS2, which in turn imparted photothermal responsiveness; this feature permits the selective cargo (fluorophore, quantum dots or an enzyme) release from the MoS2 surface in response to local heat induced by light irradiation.

Rapid measurement of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon contamination in soils by visible and near-infrared spectroscopy [PDF]
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are widely distributed organic pollutants. At petroleum contaminated sites, PAHs are often the key risk drivers because of their carcinogenicity. Assessing the risk of PAH at contaminated sites by conventional soil

Revisiting the Atmosphere of HAT-P-70b with CARMENES High-resolution Transmission Spectroscopy
Owing to hot and inflated envelopes that facilitate atmospheric studies, ultrahot Jupiters (UHJs) have attracted much attention. Significant progress has been achieved, from enlarging the sample size to broadening the studies to encompass diverse stellar

Counterion Dependent Side‐Chain Relaxation Stiffens a Chemically Doped Thienothiophene Copolymer
Oxidation of a thienothiophene copolymer, p(g3TT‐T2), via different doping strategies and dopant molecules resulted in materials with similar oxidation levels and a high electrical conductivity of ≈100 S cm−1. However, mechanical properties varied significantly, with sub‐glass transition temperatures and elastic moduli spanning from –44°C to –3°C and ...
