In this study, quasi-solid polymer electrolytes incorporating an ionic liquid (ILQSEs) fabricated in different organic solvents via a thermally-initiated polymerization strategy were investigated for flexible supercapacitors (SCs). It was found that low-viscous acetonitrile (AN) with a strongly-polar nitrile group was remained in the polymer matrix, which favored a higher ionic conductivity, wider electrochemical window, and better thermal stability of the ILQSE compared to its propylene carbonate (PC) counterpart. Moreover, the in situ polymerized quasi-solid electrolyte achieved close contact with the porous carbon electrode, accompanied by the favorable permeation of the IL into the electrode for enhancing the ion-transport kinetics and interface stability. Consequently, the as-assembled SC with the AN-based ILQSE delivered a high specific energy and specific power, excellent cycle stability, and reliable safety.

The huge volume change of silicon anode during cycling results in unstable solid electrolyte interface (SEI), causing rapid performance degradation . Natural SEI layer has a heterogeneous structure, results in the inhomogeneous Li + diffusion. The repeated destruction and regeneration of SEI aggravate the inhomogeneity of Li + diffusion at the interface, leading to non-uniform alloy reaction in the Si bulk. In this work, the silicon surface is passivated by an ultrathin uniform chitosan layer with abundant lithiophilic groups. The capacity of chitosan-coated Si (Si@CS) could reach 1500 mAh g −1 at a current density of 1 A g −1 , and the capacity retention remains 91% after 400 cycles. It is demonstrated that the oxygen and nitrogen atoms in chitosan are coordinated with Li + , providing uniformly distributed Li + transfer sites, results in a homogeneous Li + flux in the surface layer. Interestingly, a nano-scale ordered atomic arrangement is observed in the delithiated Si@CS, which contributes to more stable and reversible lithiation/delithiation reaction of the Si@CS electrode. It is proposed that optimizing the reaction interface on the Si surface is able to alter the Li-ion diffusion kinetics and structure transition behavior of silicon, which can improve the structure reversibility and stability during cycling.

Lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries are considered as very promising energy storage systems due to their higher theoretical performance and lower active material cost. However, the notorious shuttle effect and lithium dendrite growth have severely restricted the industrial production of Li–S batteries. In this study, we used polyethylene oxide (PEO) as the matrix and added multifunctional nanofillers (nano In 2 O 3 ) to effectively inhibit the shuttle effect caused by the dissolution of lithium polysulphides (LiPSs) in Li–S batteries. As a multifunctional filler, nano-In 2 O 3 not only improves the ionic conductivity of the PEO electrolyte, but also forms a Li–In alloy layer in situ at the polymer/anode interface, which can cause the rapid diffusion of lithium ions and prevent the side reactions between lithium metal anode and the electrolyte. Achieving the effect of stabilizing the lithium metal anode and suppressing the shuttle effect. Multiple problems in the system are solved by introducing a single component with multiple functions. The symmetrical lithium battery based on the PEO/LiTFSI/In 2 O 3 solid polymer electrolyte (PEO/LiTFSI/In 2 O 3 SPE) has higher cycle stability (over 1200 h) because it is more stable to the lithium metal anode. The Li–S full battery also exhibits excellent electrochemical performance. After 500 cycles at 1C, its capacity can be maintained at 570 mAh g −1 , the capacity decay rate is 0.038%. The coulombic efficiency (CE) during the cycle is also close 100%.

Lithium metal batteries based on solid electrolytes are considered as promising candidates with high energy density and safety. However, the weak solid-solid contact between electrolyte and electrode can easily lead to interface instability and lithium ions discontinuous migration, which seriously reduces the electrochemical performance of the battery. Herein, we construct a soft gel interfacial layer to improve the stability of the solid-solid interface between electrolyte and electrode by means of polyester-based monomers and imidazole-based ionic liquids. Based on this, garnet-type Li 6.4 La 3 Zr 1.4 Ta 0.6 O 12 (LLZTO) particles as inorganic ceramic filler were introduced in the layer to obtain composite electrolytes with high ionic conductivity (up to 1.1 × 10 −3 S/cm at 25 °C). As a result, the assembled lithium symmetric battery of Li|THCE-15%LLZTO|Li suggests excellent cycling stability with 700 h at 0.1 mA/cm 2 at 50 °C, and the lithium metal batteries of LFP|THCE-15%LLZTO|Li delivers high initial discharge capacity of 128.2 mA ·h/g with capacity retain of 75.48% after 150 cycles at 2 C. This work paves a new route to build safe and stable lithium metal batteries with synergistic introduction of composite electrolytes between electrolyte and electrode using soft gel interfacial layer and inorganic filler.

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) using solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) can improve safety and energy density comparable with the liquid electrolytes (LE)-based counterparts. Especially, employing garnet-type SSEs to prepare solid-state LIBs are promising to achieve high-energy cells. However, the unbending and brittle issues of the inorganic SSE films are not suitable to fabricate flexible and stretchable energy storage devices. Here, We find that introducing specific polymer (30 wt%) into Li 6.75 La 3 Zr 1.75 Ta 0.25 O 12 (LLZTO) can strongly increase the strength of the composite polymer-in-inorganic electrolyte (CIE) film. Both in-situ and ex-situ characterizations demonstrate that CIE delivers an excellent ability to suppress the growth of Li dendrites due to the close packing of LLZTO and effective filled grain boundaries and voids inside the CIE film by the polymer. The CIE inherits impressive electrochemical performance from LLZTO. As a result, the assembled LiFePO 4 (LFP)/CIE/Li cell delivers better cell performance than LFP/LE-separator/Li cell at ambient temperature (AT). The assembled high-voltage cathode (Li 1.2 Mn 0.6 Ni 0.2 O 2 , 4.8 V)/CIE/Li cell also displays an excellent cell performance at AT. The present study offers new insights into exploring of flexible polymer-in-ceramic electrolytes for high-voltage LIBs with improved safety and energy density .

The poly(ethylene oxide) based composite solid electrolyte(PEO-CSE) is an effective solution for developing high-performance solid-state lithium battery . However, the poly(ethlene oxide)(PEO) based solid-state lithium battery using 4.0 V cathode suffers from severe interfacial instability problems. In this work, we add additive lithium difluorophosphate(LiPO 2 F 2 ) into the PEO-CSE to form a stable and low resistance interphase at the cathode/electrolyte interface during charge/discharge process. The electrochemical stability window of PEO-CSE increases to ∼5.0 V. Besides, the electrochemical performance of PEO based solid-state lithium battery with LiCoO 2 as cathode is excellent. The discharge capacity of LiCoO 2 /Li cell with LiPO 2 F 2 reaches 108.5 mAh g −1 at 1.0C. In contrast, the discharge capacity that without LiPO 2 F 2 is only 60.0 mAh g −1 . Meanwhile, the PEO-CSE with LiPO 2 F 2 cell delivers stable cycle performance at 4.2 V. The capacity retention maintains 88.5% compared with 16.1%(without LiPO 2 F 2 ) after 100 cycles. Furthermore, it's still maintains 83.3% after 150 cycles. In addition, the cathode/electrolyte interface is analyzed by transmission electron microscope(TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). Galvanostatic intermittent titration test(GITT) is used to analyze the dynamic diffusion performance. This strategy provides a simple and effective way to improve the high voltage stability of the cathode/electrolyte interface.

One of the critical challenges for the protonic ceramic fuel cell stack is sealing electrolytes and interconnects. However, the traditional Ag CuO sealant will aggravate the oxidation along the interconnect surface and result in brittle compound layers at the BaZr 0.1 Ce 0.7 Y 0.1 Yb 0.1 O 3- δ (BZCYYb) electrolyte interface. The present work demonstrates that a silver particle interlayer with high dislocation density can be adopted to join BZCYYb electrolyte to the interconnect (AISI 441 stainless) in air instead of traditional Ag CuO sealant. Elevating temperatures result in a sufficient bonding at the Ag/BZCYYb interface, and a defect-free joint is obtained at 950 °C. Atomic bonding at Ag/BZCYYb interface is confirmed by TEM. Also, a dense and thin oxide layer (2–3 μm) is formed along the AISI 441 interface. Ag particles in the interlayer provide the main driving force for the sintering joining. The massive dislocations promote the recovery and recrystallization of the Ag interlayer, as well as the interdiffusion of BZCYYb/Ag. After aging in the wet oxidizing atmosphere at 600 °C for 300 h, joints remain intact and dense, indicating superior oxidation resistance and aging performance. Besides, the joint shear strength (25.3 MPa) is 59 % higher than that of the joint brazed by traditional Ag CuO.

We concretely report feasible synthesis procedures of colloidal Cu 2 ZnSn(S 1- x ,Se x ) 4 -Au (CZTSSe-Au) nano-heterostructured composites, and creatively employ them as the counter electrodes (CEs) of all-solid-state solar cells with inorganic CsSnI 2.95 F 0.05 perovskite hole conductor. Acquired optical characterization indicates that integration of noble metal nanoparticles with cuprum-chalcogenide could heighten light absorption within visible-band due to localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) generated by Au, and the forbidden gap of nanocomposites gets adjustment accordingly. It is demonstrated that this novel photocathode alternative with favorable conductivity can not only match the energy level within the device band structure construction, but also restrain recombination so that accelerate charge transfer and extraction occurring on the photocathode. The photocurrent and photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) of cells conjugating CZTS-Au photocathodes turn to be respectively 43% and 25% higher than those using pure CZTS. Moreover, it has been demonstrated that CZTS-Au, coupling very well with inorganic perovskite, owns comparable electrocatalytic performance and even higher output photocurrent with respect to platinum CEs, which portends a potential substitution for conventional costly photocathodes. A comprehensive analysis on impedance spectroscopy data is subsequently carried out for the sake of deep understanding charge accumulation and transfer response at CsSnI 2.95 F 0.05 /CE interface, attempting to orient further optimization of device performance.

Sulfide glasses with a high lithium-ion conductivity are promising solid electrolyte for all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries. In this study, 95(0.7Li 2 S–0.3P 2 S 5 )–5Li 3 PO 4 glass electrolyte is prepared by mixing 70Li 2 S-30P 2 S 5 (mol%) glass and Li 3 PO 4 crystal using mechanical milling technique.

Al 2 O 3 : Er 3+ /Yb 3+ transparent ceramics codoped with Zn 2+ ions with intense upconversion and near infrared emission were prepared by conventional solid-state reaction and vacuum and hot isostatic pressing sintering. The effects of Zn 2+ incorporation to the structure, transparent, upconversion and NIR luminescence were discussed in detail. The as prepared Al 2 O 3 ceramics exhibited a total transmittance of ~ 75% in infrared regions (800–3300 nm) and ~ 50% in visible regions (500–800 nm). Under the excitation of a 980 nm laser diode , the as prepared Al 2 O 3 ceramics displayed two tense upconversion emission peaks of a green one centered at 550 nm and a red one centered at 660 nm and a tense near infrared emission peak centered at 1.532 µm, characteristic of Er 3+ emission. Compared with Er 3+ /Yb 3+ doped only, Zn 2+ codoped Al 2 O 3 :Er 3+ /Yb 3+ transparent ceramics showed higher upconversion and near infrared emission of ~ 11 times and ~ 4 times, respectively. The enhancement mechanism due to incorporation of Zn 2+ ions was also discussed in detail.

An in-situ electrochemical optical diagnosis is the key to the investigation of electrode interface during a redox reaction . Because the morphology changes particularly, dendrite formation, dendrite shapes, solid electrolyte interface formation and gas generation can be revealed visually. The challenge of ensuring uniform current density on a flat Li anode in a liquid electrolyte is addressed and uniform Li plating is demonstrated. The dendrite shape change under different reduction current density is discussed. The Li dendrite shape change and the performance of Li anodes with a surface lamination of graphite and red phosphate are used as examples to demonstrate the capability of the in-situ optical cell. An in-situ electrochemical optical cell used in the investigation of the increasingly popular solid-state Li batteries has its own challenges. Due to the untransparent nature of a solid-state electrolyte, an optical investigation on a solid-state electrolyte Li battery needs to be done by exposing the cross-section of the cell. In addition, it is very difficult to assemble an optical cell with a brittle and fragile solid-state electrolyte in a glove box. A set of formation and transfer dies, and an optical cell are introduced. The Li dendrite growth at the interface can be observed in a solid-state Li cell.

Viscose fiber was oxidized with sodium periodate to prepare a reactive dialdehyde viscose fiber (DAVF) containing abundant aldehyde groups. A solid amine adsorbent (DAVF-PEI) with high amino density for CO 2 capture was then prepared by modifying DAVF with polyethylenimine (PEI). Response surface methodology (RSM) based on a three-level, three-factorial design was used to optimize the synthesis conditions of DAVF, in which multiple linear regression equations of aldehyde content and fiber mass loss degree were constructed. The well-designed DAVF was then employed as a support to graft with PEI via Schiff base reaction to prepare a solid amine fiber (DAVF-PEI) for CO 2 adsorption. The experimental results verified that DAVF-PEI possessed good thermo-stability and high CO 2 adsorption capacity (4.11 mmol/g). DAVF-PEI also showed promising regeneration performance, which could maintain almost the same adsorption capacity for CO 2 after ten adsorption and desorption recycles.
