Summary: In this work, the Li ordering and its influence on Li intercalation and plating on graphite, bilayer, and single-layer graphene are investigated. The results show that Li intercalation has a multistage feature for graphite and bilayer graphene. High concentration of Li atoms results in negative discharge voltage in graphite and bilayer graphene. However, Li atoms uniformly cover the surface of single-layer graphene and form an atomic island at high Li concentration.

Summary: SiOx/carbon composite materials show promise as candidate for lithium-ion battery anodes, but their widespread application is hindered by poor electrical conductivity and stability issues due to volume expansion. In this study, electrodes composed of carbon-coated silicon oxide particles interleaved with electrochemically exfoliated graphene were prepared. The graphene flakes provided conductive pathways and a porous supporting structure for buffering volume expansion. SiOx/CG anodes with an optimal graphene ratio exhibited superior Li-ion storage behavior, including high cycle stability and coulombic efficiency, due to the support of the outer robust graphene layer and porous structure, which suppressed the volume expansion of silicon oxide particles during lithiation/delithiation processes and stabilized the solid electrolyte interface (SEI) layer.

Summary: In this study, Raman spectra and infrared (IR) imaging were collected to observe the intercalation-deintercalation process in a multilayer graphene device. The intercalation of TFSI- anions into the MLG was observed through the emergence and disappearance of the intercalated G band mode at around 1610 cm(-1). By integrating the Raman signal over hundreds of cycles, significant information can be obtained. The intercalation/deintercalation process was also monitored using thermal imaging based on voltage-induced changes in the carrier density, complex dielectric function & epsilon;(& omega;), and thermal emissivity of the device.

Summary: Si/C anode with homogeneously deposited Si-C nanolayers on graphite armored with N-doped porous flexible vertical graphene sheets (VGSs) exhibits improved cycling stability and fast-charging capability. Si-C nanolayers contain sub-nanometer Si particles in 3D carbon skeleton, effectively alleviating volume change of Si and accelerating electron and Li-ion transport. N-doped VGSs provide rational space for Si volume change, buffer stress, increase electrical contact points, and accelerate Li-ion transport.

Summary: Enzymes play a crucial role as biological catalysts in accelerating biochemical reactions in living organisms. This study proposes a convenient method for monitoring enzymatic catalytic processes using native top-down mass spectrometry. By exploring the heterogeneity of the chymotrypsin sample and using tandem mass spectrometry, the researchers were able to monitor covalent and noncovalent enzymatic complexes, substrates, and products during catalysis. The results demonstrate that this method has the potential to be a promising tool for characterizing biocatalysts.

Summary: In this work, a portable analytical system based on point discharge chemical vapor generation atomic emission spectrometry (PD-CVG-AES) coupling with gold filament enrichment was designed. The highly sensitive analysis of Hg2+ indirectly realized the detection of ascorbic acid (AA). The measurement is based on the fact that Ag+ can decrease the concentration of Hg2+ by forming Ag-Hg amalgam in the presence of the reductant SnCl2, while AA can pre-reduce Ag+ to Ag0, leading to the generation of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). The developed novel analytical strategy broadens the application of microplasma-based AES and offers a higher level of sensitivity compared to current AA detection techniques.

Summary: The study developed a split aptamer-based sandwich-type ratiometric biosensor for the detection of 17 beta-estradiol (E2) using photoelectrochemical and electrochemical assays. The biosensor utilized split aptamer fragments to recognize E2 and trigger a hybridization chain reaction, resulting in the production of double-stranded DNA labeled with CdTe quantum dots. This DNA complex was able to sensitize CdTe quantum dots and generate response signals for E2 detection. The developed biosensor demonstrated high sensitivity and accuracy with two linear ranges and low detection limits.
