A New Class of High-Capacity Fe-Based Cation-Disordered Oxide for Li-Ion Batteries: Li-Fe-Ti-Mo Oxide

Jieun Kim, Yongho Shin, Byoungwoo Kang

Summary: Low-cost Fe can be used as an alternative to high-cost d(0)-species for the formation of cation-disordered rocksalt Li-excess (DRX) materials. However, Fe-based DRX materials have several challenges, such as large voltage hysteresis, low electrochemical activity, and poor cyclability. In this study, a novel Li-Fe-Ti-Mo electrode material (LFTMO) with high capacity and reasonable stability is reported. The introduction of redox-active Mo4+/5+ into Fe-based DRX materials helps stabilize the oxygen redox reaction and suppress the Fe redox reaction, improving the performance of the electrode material.

Chong Bian, Shunkun Yang, Jie Liu, Enrico Zio

Summary: This paper proposes an estimator combining multichannel convolutional and bidirectional recurrent neural networks (MCNN-BRNN) to solve the lack of multiscale feature extraction and bidirectional feature learning abilities in existing deep state-of-charge (SOC) estimators. The MCNN-BRNN method outperforms the state-of-the-art estimators in terms of robustness and accuracy, especially in situations where multiscale perturbations and their comovements exist in measurements.

An indirect remaining useful life prognosis for Li-ion batteries based on health indicator and novel artificial neural network

Ting Tang, Huimei Yuan

Summary: Accurate prediction of the remaining useful life (RUL) is essential for the safety, reliability, and economy of batteries. This paper proposes a method that searches for all relevant parameters during the charging and discharge process, extracts health indicators (HIs) related to capacity, corrects outliers, selects optimal features based on correlation coefficients, and uses an artificial neural network (ANN) to establish the relationship between HIs and capacity for RUL prediction. The effectiveness and generalization of the proposed approach are validated using data sets from NASA and Oxford under different experimental conditions.

Tuning Fe-spin state of FeN4 structure by axial bonds as efficient catalyst in Li-S batteries

Gan Qu, Kai Guo, Jichen Dong, Haojie Huang, Pengfei Yuan, Yajin Wang, Huiyu Yuan, Lirong Zheng, Jia-Nan Zhang

Summary: In lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries, accelerating the conversion of polysulfides to end products using electrocatalysts is the key solution. This study introduces molecular spin engineering to break the symmetry of FeN-C and achieve spin modulation for triplet-to-singlet conversion based on ligand field theory. The Fe-N-C structure with (d(xy))(2)(d(xz))(2)(d(yz))(2) electronic configuration significantly enhances the kinetics of polysulfide conversion. The optimized catalyst exhibits a capacity fading rate of 0.026% per cycle at 2 C and achieves a high capacity of 1042 mA h g(-1) with a sulfur loading of about 4 mg cm(-2). This strategy provides a novel approach for regulating Fe spin state and exploring catalytic effects in Li-S batteries.

NASICON-based solid state Li-Fe-F conversion batteries enabled by multi-interface-compatible sericin protein buffer layer

Meng Lei, Shengsheng Fan, Yifan Yu, Jiulin Hu, Keyi Chen, Yuping Gu, Chenglong Wu, Yang Zhang, Chilin Li

Summary: A sericin protein film (SPF) is proposed as a buffer layer to stabilize and enhance the endurance of the Li-LATP interface. The SPF can effectively trap and confine the ionic liquid (IL) as an interfacial Li-ion conductor, mitigating issues such as decomposition and cracking of the interface. The suppression of LATP reduction and Li dendrite growth enables the reversible cycling of NASICON-based solid state Li-F conversion batteries.

Emergent Moire Phonons Due to Zone Folding in WSe2-WS2 Van der Waals Heterostructures

Summary: The appearance of moire Raman modes from nearly aligned WSe2-WS2 van der Waals heterostructures in a certain frequency range indicates sensitivity to twist angle and strong Raman intensity modulation dependent on excitation energy and temperature. These modes exhibit identical frequencies for a given small twist angle and are a consequence of the large moire length scale resulting in zone-folded phonon modes that are Raman active.

Electronic excitations in monoclinic hafnia as studied by spatially and momentum-resolved electron energy-loss spectroscopy and ab initio density functional theory calculations

Sz-Chian Liou, Guo-Jiun Shu, Vladimir P. Oleshko, Hwanhui Yun, Xiang -Lin Huang, Hsin-An Chen, Wei -Tin Chen

Summary: Monoclinic hafnia (m-HfO2) is studied to investigate its electronic excitations using electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) and first-principles calculations. Experimental results confirmed the phase purity and crystallinity of m-HfO2. Surface plasmons, volume plasmons, and surface exciton polaritons were observed, and their characteristics were confirmed by EFTEM-SI and energy versus momentum (E-k) maps. The anisotropic shape of volume plasmons was not observed, and a semicore Hf 5p plasmon involving multiplet resonant processes was identified at 48 eV energy loss. All these excitations displayed parabolic dispersion behavior with an energy shift of 1-3 eV.

Quantification of Unsupported Thin-Film X-ray Spectra Using Bulk Standards

Nicholas W. M. Ritchie, Andrew Herzing, Vladimir P. Oleshko

Summary: This study presents a quantification model that uses standard X-ray spectra collected from bulk materials to determine the composition and mass thickness of single-layer and multilayer unsupported thin films. The model can iteratively solve for single layers and can be extended to multilayer films. Additional information or assumptions can be added to solve cases where an element is present in multiple layers. The algorithm is well suited for energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry and has been implemented in the Open Source application DTSA-II.
