Summary: The low-cost and high safety of zinc batteries have attracted attention, but the operating voltages are usually low. Hybrid batteries using H+ as the charge carrier can achieve high operating voltage and performance. However, it is difficult to prepare alkaline zinc-based hybrid batteries with high performance. The development of a unique phase-separation electrolyte (PSE) can boost the voltage and prevent zinc dendrite growth. Zinc/lithium hybrid batteries with LiMn2O4 cathodes show excellent cycle performance. A full cell with a high voltage and capacity is also achieved.

Summary: This study evaluated the structural, optical, and physical characteristics of glasses with different levels of In2O3 content, finding that increasing In2O3 content led to higher glass density, increased Urbach energies, and alterations in optical and absorption characteristics. Additionally, substituting ZnO with In2O3 significantly enlarged the optical band gap, and the gamma-ray mass attenuation coefficient showed consistent growth with higher In2O3 content. High concentrations of In2O3 in TeO2-ZnO glass were found to be beneficial for integrating structural, optical, and radiation properties.

Summary: This study assessed crude oil thermal maturity by analyzing the asphaltene fraction with Raman spectroscopy and XRD methods. Raman spectra indicated that the position, area, and intensity of the D1 band in asphaltenes can serve as maturity indicators. XRD results showed that parameters such as aromaticity, distance between aromatic sheets, height of clusters, and intensity ratios were dependent on maturity variations. A positive correlation was found between maturity and parameters like aromaticity and intensity ratio, suggesting their potential for crude oil maturity assessment.

Summary: The study shows that the luminescence at silicon band edge is greatly enhanced when co-implanted with boron and carbon. The role of boron in band edge emissions in silicon was investigated by introducing defects into the lattice structures. The aim was to increase the light emission intensity from silicon by boron implantation, resulting in the formation of dislocation loops. Photoluminescence measurements were performed to observe the emissions in the near-infrared region. Two main peaks were observed at approximately 1112 and 1170 nm in the samples incorporated with boron, with significantly higher intensities compared to pristine silicon samples.
