Summary Natural polyelectrolyte complex has designable structure, unique advantages of composite and strong intermolecular or intramolecular force without chemical cross-linking agents, showing the advantages of good biodegradability and low toxicity. This work reports an application research of natural polyelectrolyte in energy storage device. A multi-doped hierarchically porous carbon is fabricated from polyelectrolyte of sodium lignosulfonate and chitosan and used as electrode material of supercapacitor. The material characterization reveals its large specific surface area of 1768 m 2 g −1 , pore volume of 0.94 cm 3 g −1 with optimum 3D porous structure, and high heteroatom (oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur) concentration. Benefit from these, the electrodes it made exhibit 354 F g −1 specific capacitance at 1 A g −1 current density, outstanding rate retention of 82.9% at a testing environment of 20 A g −1 , and 97.8% capacitance retention in 3 M KOH electrolyte after 10 000 cycles. Using this material, all-solid symmetric supercapacitor devices show 30.11 Wh kg −1 energy density at 520.88 W kg −1 power density and retains 20.90 Wh kg −1 at 1.03 kW kg −1 . These remarkable electrochemical performances prove the promising porous carbon in this work as electrode material with excellent performance for supercapacitors.

Li 7 P 3 S 11 (70Li 2 S·30P 2 S 5 ) sulfide is a promising electrolyte candidate for all-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) owing to its high ionic conducivity and wide electrochemical stability window. However, the sensitivity to moisture and the poor interfacial compatibility with electrodes limit the conventional application of Li 7 P 3 S 11 . Herein, we present a substitution strategy to produce a O-incorporated 70Li 2 S·(30-x)P 2 S 5 ·xP 2 O 5 (mol%) sulfide electrolyte to address above issues. The elaborately designed electrolyte is prepared via wet vibration ball milling technique with P 2 O 5 substitution content of 1, 3 and 5. As a result, the 70Li 2 S·27P 2 S 5 ·3P 2 O 5 electrolyte displays the highest ionic conductivity of 2.61× 10 −3 S cm −1 which outperforms than that of pristine Li 7 P 3 S 11 (ionic conductivity of 1.35 × 10 −3 S cm −1 ) and the assembled LiCoO 2 @LiNbO 3 /70Li 2 S·27P 2 S 5 ·3P 2 O 5 /Li-In ASSLB exhibits the superior capacity retention of 93.2% after 100 cycles at 0.5C. The reason for the developed electrochemical performance lies in the substitution of the non-bridging sulfur atom with bridging oxygen atom, from which the interaction between electrolyte and lithium ions is weakened, thereby the rapid transfer of lithium ions is facilitated. Furthermore, Raman and XRD results indicate that the adverse interfacial reactions are suppressed through P 2 O 5 substitution. This work suggests that P 2 O 5 substitution is an effective strategy for sulfide electrolyte toward high energy all-solid-state lithium batteries.

Polyethylene oxide (PEO)-based solid polymer electrolytes are regarded as promising electrolyte materials because of their safety and flexibility. However, low ionic conductivity at ambient temperature and poor mechanical properties have been a hindrance to its development. In this work, we thermally compressed the PEO-based electrolytes and explored the ionic conductivity, mechanical performance, free volume, and thermal properties of the electrolyte under different thermal pre-compressing strains (TPC-strains). The results show that TPC-strain can significantly improve the ionic conductivity, in-plane strength, stiffness, and cell specific capacity as well as the mechanical integrity of solid polymer electrolytes within the battery environment. However, it also results in a reduction in the modulus and stiffness of the SPEs in the through-plane. In particular, applying a TPC-strain of 10%–20% to the SPEs by thermal compressing may be a suitable option, which can increase the ionic conductivity of the through-plane to a factor of 3.4 compared with the uncompressed electrolyte, and increase the in-plane strength by up to 141%, resulting in better mechanical integrity during charging/discharging processes. At the same time, the compression modulus can be maintained at 80% or higher.

A one-step synthesis method is developed to prepare the Li[Ni 0.5 Co 0.2 Mn 0.3 ]O 2 (NCM 523) cathode with uniform tungsten-coating layer for lithium-ion battery . Such modified material shows similar properties with the bare NCM 523 in terms of the primary particles, secondary structure , and specific capacity. With W coating layer , the NCM 523 gives remarkable improvement in the long-term capacity retention in the half-cell testing, which is sharply inconsistent with the result from the full-battery tests, indicating a contradiction between the half-cell and full-battery tests in some case. After further investigations, such conflict between the half-cell and full-cell tests in evaluating the W-coating strategy is attributed to the dissolution of Li 2 WO 4 layer in the electrolyte, which probably destroys the solid electrolyte interface (SEI) on the graphite anode and irreversibly consumes the active lithium ions for renovating SEI in full-cell testing. These results will benefit researchers in the area of lithium-ion batteries to fully understand the differences between the half-cell and full-cell testing, and develop the effective strategies for cathode modifications.

This study reports the development of complete solar-driven dual-photoelectrode fuel cell (PFC) based on WO 3 photoanode and Cu 2 O photocathode with peroxymonosulfate (PMS) serving as cathodic electron acceptor . As indicated by photoelectrochemical measurements, the PMS was able to improve thermodynamic properties of photocathode, achieving an increased open circuit potential from 0.42 V to 0.65 V vs standard hydrogen electrode (SHE). Under simulated sunlight irradiation (~100 mW cm −2 ), the maximum power density of 0.12 mW cm −2 could be obtained at current density of 0.34 mA cm −2 , which was 8.57 times of that produced by PFC without PMS (0.014 mW cm −2 ). Correspondingly, adding PMS (1.0 mM) increased overall removal efficiency of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) from 39.8% to 96.8%, accounting for the first-order kinetic constant ( k =0.056 min −1 ) being 6.67 times of that in the absence of PMS ( k =0.0084 min −1 ). Radical quenching and electron spin-resonance (ESR) results suggested the contribution of free radicals (•OH and SO 4 •- ) and non-radical pathway associated with direct activation of PMS by Cu 2 O photocathode. Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) analysis confirmed the strong non-radical interaction between Cu 2 O photocathode and PMS, resulting in 4-CP removal via activation of PMS by surface complex on Cu 2 O. The proof-in-concept complete solar-driven dual-photoelectrode fuel cell may offer an effective manner to realize water purification and power generation, making wastewater treatment more economical and more sustainable.

Piezoelectric PZT ceramics with high piezoelectric properties and good thermal stability are urgently desired concerning the practical application. New compositions of LiNbO 3 modified Pb(Ni 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 3 PbZrO 3 PbTiO 3 ceramics have been prepared in this study. The effects of the introduction of the LiNbO 3 on the system were comprehensively investigated in terms of the phase structure, microstructure, electric properties, and thermal stability behavior of the ceramics. All compositions are located in the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) region, and the ratio of the rhombohedral (R) phase increases obviously with the increase of LiNbO 3 concentration. With increasing the LiNbO 3 content, the piezoelectric properties were significantly enhanced. The sample added with 2% (in mole) LiNbO 3 shows excellent electric properties, including T m = 185 °C, ε r = 5,643, k p = 0.626, Q m = 51, d 33 = 902 pC/N. More importantly, no thermal depolarization behavior was observed in the temperature range of 25–100 °C. For PNN-PZT- x %LN ceramics, which is mainly attributed to the pinning effect resulted by the Li Pb ' − Nb Zr/Ti ∙ defect dipoles.

The rapid development of high-performance materials has garnered considerable attention in addressing electromagnetic pollution . The construction of core-shell heterostructures is an effective approach for regulating the electromagnetic parameters of absorbers. However, these heterostructures usually lack a direct channel for charge transport between the core phase and the adhesive shell phase. Herein, Fe 2 AlB 2 @FeAl-layered double hydroxides with core-shell heterostructures were prepared using a top-down approach. The tightly connected FeAl-LDHs nanosheets to the Fe 2 AlB 2 parent phase improved electronic transport. Compared with raw Fe 2 AlB 2 , the spherical absorber with an embroidered structure demonstrated stronger reflection loss (-15.6 dB for Fe 2 AlB 2 , −58.6 dB for Fe 2 AlB 2 @FeAl-LDHs) and a broader effective absorption bandwidth (2.2 GHz for Fe 2 AlB 2 , 3.6 GHz for Fe 2 AlB 2 @FeAl-LDHs) due to the enhanced dielectric and magnetic losses. This study presents a practical method for designing new controllable core-shell heterostructures for electromagnetic wave-absorbing materials.

Interface engineering has been proved to be a practical strategy to enhance power conversion efficiency (PCE) and stability of perovskite solar cells. Recently approaches involving ultra-thin layer deposition and vacuum-processing, while improving PCE, increase the processing complexity, and thus the overall cost. In this paper, we demonstrate a high-efficiency inverted planar perovskite solar cell, obtained with a simple wet-chemistry based, room-temperature, and cost-effective process, which synthesizes two interfacial layers: solution processed molybdenum oxide (named s-MoOx) for anode and titanium(IV) oxide bis(2,4-pentanedionate) (TOPD) for cathode buffer layers. Steady-state photoluminescence (PL), time resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) are conducted to characterize the charge transport properties, confirming an enhanced charge extraction efficiency and a suppressed charge recombination. In addition, the introduction of the interfacial layers facilities formation of an ohmic contact with the metal electrode, reducing the charge transfer resistance and increasing the FF to as high as 80.7%. The optimized solar cells achieve the best PCE of 16.04% which far exceeds the PCE of devices without these interfacial layers (PCE = 11.2%).

Electrochemical energy storage (EES) devices that combine high-performance are essential to resolve the extreme shortage of non-renewable energy sources and environmental issues. Nickel oxide (NiO) is considered to be a promising EES cathode material because of its ultra-high theoretical specific capacitance, whereas the practical applications are greatly limited with poor rate and cycle performance. Herein, we report the yolk-shelled NiO/Ni composites (YS NiO/Ni) that exhibit good charge storage capability in the aqueous electrolyte with high specific capacitance (2207.3 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 ), exceptional rate capability, and ultra-high cycling stability (95.8% retention after 10,000 cycles). The superior property can be ascribed to the special yolk-shelled structure that exposes more redox reaction active sites, and the associate Ni nanoparticles with flower-like NiO which can improve electron transfer as current collectors.

All-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) employing sulfide electrolyte and lithium (Li) anode have received increasing attention due to the intrinsic safety and high energy density. However, the thick electrolyte layer and lithium dendrites formed at the electrolyte/Li anode interface hinder the realization of high-performance ASSLBs . Herein, a novel membrane consisting of Li 6 PS 5 Cl (LPSCl), poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and Li-salt (LiTFSI) was prepared as sulfide-based composite solid electrolyte (LPSCl-PEO3-LiTFSI) (LPSCl:PEO = 97:3 wt/wt; EO:Li = 8:1 mol/mol), which delivers high ionic conductivity (1.1 × 10 −3 S cm −1 ) and wide electrochemical window (4.9 V vs. Li + /Li) at 25 °C. In addition, an ex-situ artificial solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) film enriched with LiF and Li 3 N was designed as a protective layer on Li anode (Li(SEI)) to suppress the growth of lithium dendrites. Benefiting from the synergy of sulfide-based composite solid electrolyte and ex-situ artificial SEI, cells of S-CNTs/LPSCl-PEO3-LiTFSI/Li(SEI) and Al 2 O 3 @LiNi 0.5 Co 0.3 Mn 0.2 O 2 /LPSCl-PEO3-LiTFSI/Li(SEI) are assembled and both exhibit high initial discharge capacity of 1221.1 mAh g −1 (135.8 mAh g −1 ) and enhanced cycling stability with 81.6% capacity retention over 200 cycles at 0.05 C (89.2% over 100 cycles at 0.1 C). This work provides a new insight into the synergy of composite solid electrolyte and artificial SEI for achieving high-performance ASSLBs .

The Mn dissolution issue in manganese-based materials (LMO) represents one of the most challenging barriers to further commercial development of electrochemical lithium extraction, which is an efficient and clean way of extracting Li from liquid resources. Here, by leveraging the advantages of composite materials, a novel combination of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and sulfonated ionic polymers (Nafion) is introduced to relieve the issues of electrode polarization and manganese dissolution, critical factors limiting the durability of LMO electrodes. By modifying with rGO to enhance electronic conductivity and surface characteristics, and capturing dissolved Mn 2+ through Nafion, the modified electrode showed significant improvement in cycling stability and lithium adsorption capacity. Experimental results confirm that this synergistic approach effectively mitigates polarization effects and controls disproportionation reactions, thereby enhancing the stability of the lithium extraction process, revealing a notable increase in electrode capacity retention from 79.04 % to 94.64 % after 30 cycles. Additionally, through DFT calculations and XPS analysis, the effectiveness of the manganese capture strategy is validated. This work presents an effective new strategy to extend the lifespan of manganese-based electrodes and enhance their adsorption performance.

In this work, we demonstrate a facile approach to synthesize high-performance and stable TiO 2 @PANI core-shell nanowires (NWs) as flexible electrodes for solid-state supercapacitors (SCs). The TiO 2 @PANI core-shell NWs are grown directly on highly conductive carbon cloth, which not only give efficient charge transport and accessible diffusion of the electrolyte, but also provide large surface area and active sites for redox reaction as well as good strain accommodation. Such these features enable them to deliver a large areal capacitance of 520.3 mF/cm 2 at 0.5 mA/cm 2 with outstanding rate capability. Furthermore, a flexible and stable solid-state SC device based on these TiO 2 @PANI core-shell NWs is also demonstrated. The as-fabricated solid-state SC device yields a remarkable volumetric capacitance of 898.4 mF/cm 3 , excellent flexibility and significant cycling stability with more than 97.2% retention of its capacitance after 10000 cycles. We believe that these findings may open up new opportunities to prepare high-performance PANI-based electrodes for flexible solid-state SCs.
