Carboxyl Functional Group

The popularly reported energy storage mechanisms of potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) are based on alloy-, de-intercalation-, and conversion-type processes, which inevitably lead to structural damage of the electrodes caused by intercalation/de-intercalation of K+ with a relatively large radius, which is accompanied by poor cycle stabilities. Here, we report the exploration of robust high-temperature PIBs enabled by a carboxyl functional group energy storage mechanism, which is based on an example of p-phthalic acid (PTA) with two carboxyl functional groups as the redox centers. In such a case, the intercalation/de-intercalation of K+ can be performed via surface reactions with relieved volume change, thus favoring excellent cycle stability for PIBs against high temperatures. As proof of concept, at the fixed working temperature of 62.5 °C, the initial discharge and charge specific capacities of the PTA electrode are ∼660 and 165 mA⋅h⋅g−1, respectively, at a current density of 100 mA⋅g−1, with 86% specific capacity retention after 160 cycles. Meanwhile, it delivers 81.5% specific capacity retention after 390 cycles under a high current density of 500 mA⋅g−1. The cycle stabilities achieved under both low and high current densities are the best among those of high-temperature PIBs reported previously.

Abstract This work introduces the possibility of using Ag sinter-paste as a novel high-temperature and high-current wire bonding solution. We investigated the electromigration (EM) behavior and lifetime of the sintered Ag wiring under high current density and high temperature required for the design of power electronic devices. The sinter Ag wiring fabricated on the two Cu substrates were tested under current densities of 2.7 × 104 A/cm2 at temperature of 250 °C. The microstructure evolution of sintered wiring was characterized after EM test. The resistance of sintered wiring did not change even after EM test for 300 hours, which confirms that the Ag-paste sinter wire bonding is rather stable than aluminum wire bonding under high temperature and high current density. No degradation was observed in microstructure of sintered wiring after EM test. Thus, it is expected that Ag paste sinter wire bonding is one of potential alternative interconnection technology for power electronic devices.

High Flexibility

Construction of flexible electrochemical devices for energy storage and generation is of utmost importance in the modern society. In this article, we report the synthesis of flexible MoS2 based composite paper by high-energy shear force milling and simple vacuum filtration. This composite material combines high flexibility, mechanical strength and good chemical stability. Chronopotentiometric charge-discharge measurements were used to determine the capacitance of our paper material. Highest capacitance of 33 mF cm-2 was achieved at current density of 1 mA cm-2 showing potential application in supercapacitors. We further used the material as a cathode for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) with an onset potential of ca. -0.2 V vs RHE. The onset potential was even lower (ca. -0.1 V vs RHE) after treatment with n-butyllithium suggesting the introduction of new active sites. Finally, a potential use in Lithium ion batteries (LIB) was examined. Our material can be used directly without any binder, additive carbon or copper current collector and delivers specific capacity of 740 mA h g-1 at a current density of 0.1 A g-1. After 40 cycles at this current density the material still reached a capacity retention of 91%. Our findings show that this composite material could find application in electrochemical energy storage and generation devices where high flexibility and mechanical strength are desired.

Due to the high current density in 77K, the high temperature superconducting facilities are expected to improve the efficient in power transmission. Superconducting facilities electromagnetic design is highly dependent on the characteristic of the superconducting tape. As a result, the comparison of the effect of different tape in electromagnetic design should be studied. In this paper, several facilities model are used as example to analyze the effect of different tape utilization. The result shows in different application conditions, or, specific benefits are considered, there is a specific tape will be the best choice.

Lithium Metal

Because lithium metal exhibits high specific capacity and low potential, it is the best candidate for fabricating anodes for batteries. Rechargeable batteries fabricated using lithium anode exhibit high capacity and high potential cathode; these can be potentially used to fabricate high energy density batteries (>500 Wh kg–1) that can be used for the development of next-generation electric vehicles. However, the formation and growth of lithium dendrites and the low coulombic efficiency recorded during lithium plating and stripping under conditions of high current density hinder the use of lithium metal as the anodic material for the development of practical rechargeable batteries. In this short review, we outline the current status and prospects of lithium anodes for fabricating batteries in the presence of non-aqueous liquid, polymer, and solid electrolytes operated under conditions of high current density.
