Deposition of Lithium metal on anodes contributes significantly to ageing of Li-ion cells.
Lithium deposition is connected not only to a drastic limitation of life-time, but also to fast …

The presence of various heavy metal ions in the industrial waste waters has recently been a
challenging issue for human health. Since heavy metals are highly soluble in the aquatic …

Improving safety while increasing the charging rates and extending the lifetime is the grand
challenge for lithium-ion batteries. The key challenge is to control lithium plating, a parasitic …

A comprehensive roadmap describing the current density-and size-dependent dendrite
growth mechanisms is presented. Based on a thermodynamically consistent theory, the …

Dynamic windows, which switch between transparent and opaque states upon application of
a voltage, have applications in buildings, automobiles, and switchable sunglasses. Here, we …

Dynamic windows with electronically controlled transmission reduce glare without
obstructing views while increasing the energy efficiency of buildings and automobiles via …

Due to its manufacturing and size tailoring ease, porous anodic alumina (PAA) templates
are an elegant physical-chemical nanopatterning approach and an emergent alternative to …

A 3-D porous structure of Ni–Fe–S nanosheets was created using a dynamic hydrogen
bubble template (DHBT), which promotes active site exposure, on a nickel foam substrate as …

Improving the reversibility of lithium (Li) metal anodes is critical to enable next-generation
batteries. However, a comprehensive understanding of the factors that influence the …

The oxides of cobalt have recently been shown to be highly effective electrocatalysts for the
oxygen evolution reaction (OER) under alkaline conditions. In general species such as …
