<b>Potassium-ion batteries have been envisioned to herald the age of low-cost and high-performance energy storage systems. However, the sparsity of viable components has dampened the progress of these energy devices. Thus, herein, we report coronene, a high-voltage cathode material that manifests a high-voltage of 4.1 V enkindled by anion (de)insertion. This work not only illuminates the broad class of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as prospective cathode materials but also sets a new benchmark for the performance of future organic cathode materials.</b>

<b>Potassium-ion batteries have been envisioned to herald the age of low-cost and high-performance energy storage systems. However, the sparsity of viable components has dampened the progress of these energy devices.

This work not only illuminates the broad class of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as prospective cathode materials but also sets a new benchmark for the performance of future organic cathode materials. It would be remiss not to mention that the timing of this submission is not related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and any similarities noted herein are coincidental. On the other hand, as a silver lining, this work epitomises a beacon of hope in these despairing times.</b>

AbstractThe development of sodium-ion (SIBs) and potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) has increased rapidly because of the abundant resources and cost-effectiveness of Na and K. Antimony (Sb) plays an important role in SIBs and PIBs because of its high theoretical capacity, proper working voltage, and low cost. However, Sb-based anodes have the drawbacks of large volume changes and weak charge transfer during the charge and discharge processes, thus leading to poor cycling and rapid capacity decay. To address such drawbacks, many strategies and a variety of Sb-based materials have been developed in recent years. This review systematically introduces the recent research progress of a variety of Sb-based anodes for SIBs and PIBs from the perspective of composition selection, preparation technologies, structural characteristics, and energy storage behaviors. Moreover, corresponding examples are presented to illustrate the advantages or disadvantages of these anodes. Finally, we summarize the challenges of the development of Sb-based materials for Na/K-ion batteries and propose potential research directions for their further development.

In recent years, increasing demand for hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) has generated the need for reliable and low-cost high-temperature electronics which can operate at the high temperatures under the hood of these vehicles. A high-voltage and high temperature gate-driver integrated circuit for SiC FET switches with short circuit protection has been designed and implemented in a 0.8-micron silicon-on-insulator (SOI) high-voltage process. The prototype chip has been successfully tested up to 200°C ambient temperature without any heat sink or cooling mechanism. This gate-driver chip can drive SiC power FETs of the DC-DC converters in a HEV, and future chip modifications will allow it to drive the SiC power FETs of the traction drive inverter. The converter modules along with the gate-driver chip will be placed very close to the engine where the temperature can reach up to 175ΰC. Successful operation of the chip at this temperature with or without minimal heat sink and without liquid cooling will help achieve greater power-to-volume as well as power-to-weight ratios for the power electronics module.
