SiO 2 is the major mineral substance in the upper mantle of the earth. Therefore, studies of the silica-coated materials under high-pressure are essential to explore the physical and chemical properties of the upper mantle. The silica-confined CsPbBr 3 nanocrystals (NCs) have recently attracted much attention because of the improved photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield, owing to the protection of silica shell. However, it remains considerable interest to further explore the relationship between optical properties and the structure of CsPbBr 3 @SiO 2 NCs. We systemically studied the structural and optical properties of the CsPbBr 3 @SiO 2 NCs under high pressure by using diamond anvil cell (DAC). The discontinuous changes of PL and absorption spectra occurred at ∼1.40 GPa. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies of CsPbBr 3 @SiO 2 NCs under high pressure indicated an isostructural phase transformation at about 1.36 GPa, owing to the pressure-induced tilting of the Pb-Br octahedra. The isothermal bulk moduli for two phases are estimated about 60.0 GPa and 19.2 GPa by fitting the equation of state. Besides, the transition pressure point of CsPbBr 3 @SiO 2 NCs is slightly higher than that of pristine CsPbBr 3 NCs, which attributed to the buffer effect of coating silica shell. The results indicate that silica shell is able to enhance the stabilization without changing the relationship between optical properties and structure of CsPbBr 3 NCs. Our results were fascinated to model the rock metasomatism in the upper mantle and provided a new ‘lithoprobe’ for detecting the upper mantle.

We describe our recent progress on a novel method to prepare Ti 1.4 V 0.6 Ni hydrogen storage alloy covered with nanostructured Co 3 O 4 by utilizing zelolitic imidazolate framework 67 (ZIF-67) as the template. Ti 1.4 V 0.6 Ni@C@Co 3 O 4 composite is prepared through a dopamine self-polymerization and a facile precipitation reaction with the subsequent thermal treatment. This specific composite structure combines the high conductivity of carbon together with the promising catalytic property of nanostructured Co 3 O 4 , therefore the enhanced electrochemical activity and stability are realized. As a result, Ti 1.4 V 0.6 Ni@C@Co 3 O 4 composite electrode possesses a capacity conservation rate of 56.1% after 300 charging/discharging cycles, remarkably larger than that of Ti 1.4 V 0.6 Ni (25.3%). Moreover, a study of the kinetics demonstrates that nanostructured Co 3 O 4 coating accelerates the charge-transfer reaction of the electrode. These results prove that coating with carbon and nanostructured Co 3 O 4 is a potential method for enhancing electrochemical hydrogen storage properties of hydrogen storage alloys.

In order to restrain the capacity decay of nickel-rich materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in advanced energy applications, a Ni-rich cathode (LiNi 0.88 Co 0.07 Al 0.05 O 2 , LANCA) with high-rate capability and cycle life was designed and prepared by coating γ-LiAlO 2 and doping Al 3+ on the surface and inside of the secondary particles, respectively. Specifically, the γ-LiAlO 2 -coated and Al 3+ -doped LANCA samples were synthesized by a simple strategy of pre-coating Ni 0.88 Co 0.07 Al 0.05 (OH) 2 , based on aluminum isopropoxide hydrolysis combined with a post-sintering lithiation process. With the γ-LiAlO 2 and Al 3+ , the capacity retention ratio of the cathode is tremendously improved from 61.7 to 83.6% at 1 C rate after 100 cycles. Even at a heavy current density of 10 C for the LANCA cathode, a high reversible capacity of 154.4 mA h g − 1 can be acquired, which amount to the 82.5% capacity retention at 0.2 C. Detailed morphology and structure observation shows that the side reaction at the electrolyte-cathode interface was suppressed, the structural degradation and intergranular cracking were suppressed, while the diffusion of Li + and conductivity were improved. Therefore, this ingenious structural design has certain reference significance for the development and commercialization of high-performance cathode materials for electric power.

Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NVP) has gained enormous attentions due to the high capacity and voltage platform. Nevertheless, poor intrinsic electronic conductivities severely restrict the further development. Herein, a feasible strategy to construct unique dimensional gradient structure of the wolfram doped NVP is proposed via a facile sol–gel method. The introduction of W 6+ with the smaller ionic radius parallelized with local V 3+ ions could stabilize the open NASICON structure of NVP and generate vast of beneficial holes to accelerate the electronic transportation. Notably, the wolfram can combine with the superfluous carbon layer and form the new conductive WC phase to further promote the electronic conductivity. Meanwhile, the coated carbon layers and enwrapped CNTs construct an effective conductive framework for accelerated electronic migration. The twining CNTs promote to inhibit the growth of the sintered grains, reducing the particle size to provide shortened pathway for the migration of Na + . Distinctively, the modified Na 2.97 V 2.99 W 0.019 (PO 4 ) 3 /C@CNTs (W0.01-NVP) composite delivers a superior electrochemical performance. Significantly, it can submit a high reversible capability of 112.5 mAh g −1 at 5C with retaining 86% initial capacity over 500 cycles. As for a super high rate of 50C, it reveals an incredible capacity of 92.6 mAh g −1 and remains 84.5 mAh g −1 over 400 cycles, corresponding to a high retention of 91.30%. The superior electrochemical performance is derived from the enhanced crystal structure resulted from wolfram substitution and the beneficial dimensional conductive system consisting of new WC phase, coated carbon layers and enwrapped CNTs.

Cathode materials with high capacity and cyclic durability are urgently needed for capacitive deionization . Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 is an emerging pseudocapacitive candidate for this process on account of its high capacity and Na + reversible insertion, while it suffers from the intrinsic low electrical conductivity and small electrolyte-accessible surface area. Herein, a sea urchin-like Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @carbon (NVP@C) compound material was synthesized from MXene-V 2 C via hydrothermal method followed by annealing treatment, and then assembled as capacitive deionization (CDI) electrode material . Benefiting from three-dimensional sea urchin-like structure, where the nanoneedles of NVP@C serve as fast transport channel for Na + , NVP@C performed high specific capacity (437 F g −1 at 5 mV s −1 ) and fast ionic diffusion kinetics. Moreover, the NVP@C showed attractive desalination performance as cathode material for CDI, achieving a remarkable adsorption capacity of 74.0 mg g −1 in a NaCl salt solution (1000 mg L −1 ) and long life cycle stability. The present work provides a novel perspective to construct practical redox-active and stable CDI electrode with 3D structure from MXene for highly capacitive and durable desalination application .

Their carbon-coated composites are obtained by a heat treatment in the presence of citric acid. These composites were characterized by powder X-ray diffractometry, scanning and transmission electron microscopy , Raman spectroscopy , and thermogravimetric analysis . The lithium storage capacity and cycling performance of the optimized Li 2 Mn 0.5 Fe 0.5 SiO 4 /C composite are greatly enhanced when tested as a cathode material in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). It exhibits a discharge capacity of 125 mAh g −1 after 60 cycles at a rate of 0.1 C. This superior electrochemical property could be ascribed to high purity and mesoporous structure of Li 2 Mn 0.5 Fe 0.5 SiO 4 , which greatly enhances the electronic conductivity as well as the diffusion coefficient of lithium ions .

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have gained more and more interest for grid-level energy storage applications compared with current lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). In this paper, well-uniform and dispersed spindle-shaped NiCo 2 O 4 particles were synthesized by solvothermal method, and then graphene-encapsulated NiCo 2 O 4 (NiCo 2 O 4 @G) was formed core-shell nanostructures , which greatly enhanced the electronic and ionic (electro-active) conduction and also effectively buffering to accommodate the strain. Benefit from its structure feature, the prepared NiCo 2 O 4 @G core-shell nanostructures composite shows good cycling with a capacity of up to ∼400 mAh g −1 (100 mA g −1 ) in 100 cycles for NIBs anode. The facile synthesis process and excellent SIBs behaviors in this paper are expected to be extended in developing other anode materials in battery system.

To improve the stability and performance of the cathode materials, an ionic conductor layer was coated successfully on the surface of Li 1.2 Mn 0.54 Ni 0.13 Co 0.13 O 2 (LMNC) microspheres. The structural analysis confirmed that LiV 3 O 8 coating did not change the basic structure of LMNC, and all obtained materials are solid solutions with a good-layered structure and a good crystallinity. The microscopy measurement showed that the thickness of the coating layer for the LV-3 sample is about 2.5 nm. This appropriate layer is helpful for improving the surface stability of LMNC and the diffusion of lithium, leading to an obvious enhancement of the electrochemical performance. Our result confirmed that the average discharge specific capacities for LV-3 sample at 0.1 C, 0.2 C, 0.5 C, 1 C, and 3 C are respectively 265.9, 219.1, 188.0, 156.3, and 121.5 mAh g −1 , which are much larger than the values of other samples. After 50 cycles at a 1 C rate, the capacity retentions for different samples are 60.7%, 74.0%, 87.6%, and 70.4%, indicating that LV-3 sample exhibits the best performance. Furthermore, EIS measurements showed that the diffusion coefficient for LV-3 sample is calculated to be 1.26 × 10 −15 cm 2 s −1 , which is also the largest value among all considered samples. Our experiments identified that coating an ionic conductive layer on the cathode material surface will significantly improve their rate capacity and cycling stability.

To improve the thermal properties of aluminum (Al) in the energetic system, a coated structure with ammonium perchlorate (AP) was prepared by a facile approach. And N, N-Dimethylformamide (DMF) was chosen as an ideal solvent based on heterogeneous nucleation theory and molecular dynamics simulation. This coated structure could enlarge the contact area and improve the reaction environment to enhance the thermal properties. The addition of AP could accelerate oxidation temperature of Al with around 17.5 °C. And the heat release of 85@15 composition rises to 26.13 kJ/g and the reaction degree is 97.6% with higher peak pressure (254.6 kPa) and rise rate (1.397 MPa/s). An ideal ratio with 15 wt% AP was probed primarily. The high energy laser-induced shockwave experiment was utilized to simulate the reaction behavior in hot field. And the larger activated mixture of coated powder could release more energy to promote the growth of shockwave with higher speed up to 518.7 ± 55.9 m/s. In conclusion, 85@15 composition is expected to be applied in energetic system as a novel metal fuel.

LiNi 0.915 Co 0.075 Al 0.01 O 2 (NCA) with Zr(OH) 4 coating is demonstrated as high performance cathode material for lithium ion batteries (LIBs). The coated materials are synthesized via a simple dry coating method of NCA with Zr(OH) 4 powders, and then characterized with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Experimental results show that amorphous Zr(OH) 4 powders have been successfully coated on the surface of spherical NCA particles, exhibiting improved electrochemical performance . 0.50 wt% Zr(OH) 4 coated NCA delivers a capacity of 197.6 mAh/g at the first cycle and 154.3 mAh/g after 100 cycles with a capacity retention of 78.1% at 1 C rate. In comparison, the pure NCA shows a capacity of 194.6 mAh/g at the first cycle and 142.5 mAh/g after 100 cycles with a capacity retention of 73.2% at 1 C rate. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) results show that the coated material exhibits a lower resistance, indicating that the coating layer can efficiently suppress transition metals dissolution and decrease the side reactions at the surface between the electrode and electrolyte. Therefore, surface coating with amorphous Zr(OH) 4 is a simple and useful method to enhance the electrochemical performance of NCA-based materials for the cathode of LIBs.

The emerging market of high-power lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) highlights the importance of developing high-voltage cathodes. Lithium nickel phosphate (LiNiPO 4 ) with the highest theoretical discharge potential (∼5.1V) has attracted increasing attention due to its stable olivine structure. In this study, ultrathin carbon layer-coated LiNiPO 4 was synthesized using oleylamine-assisted solvothermal method under different solvothermal times, and the effect of solvothermal time (1h–18h) on LiNiPO 4 samples is fully investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows that high-purity LiNiPO 4 materials can be prepared after calcination of the solvothermal product under N 2 , but adding part of H 2 to the calcination atmosphere will lead to the generation of impurities in the target product. As the solvothermal time increases, the product will agglomerate and grow, the particle size will increase, and the morphology will change from nanoparticle to rodlike structure. After the high-temperature calcination step, the oleylamine is completely carbonized, and a conductive carbon layer is successfully coated on the LiNiPO 4 with the thickness of 2 nm. As the solvothermal time increases, the graphitization degree of oleylamine increases after carbonization. The existence of the carbon layer and the increase in the degree of graphitization are beneficial to improving the electrical conductivity and Li-ion diffusion rate of LiNiPO 4 . The initial discharge capacity of LNP@C-12h product prepared with 12 h solvothermal time is 35 mA h g −1 at 0.1 C. Rietveld analysis shows that the anti-site defect concentration of the LNP@C material is 1.07 %, and the proportion increases to 2.83 % after several cycles. This work provides a positive contribution to the synthesis and modification of high-voltage LiNiPO 4 materials and explains the electrochemical performance degradation of LiNiPO 4 from the perspective of increasing the concentration of anti-site defects.
