Oxide Spinels

Lithium manganese oxide spinels are attractive materials for lithium-ion battery cathodes due to their capability for high voltage application paired with a three-dimensional conductive pathway that can allow for improved lithium insertion and deinsertion kinetics. However, this material suffers from limited cyclability as a result of the energy barriers for removing lithium from the octahedral sites and capacity fading as a result of manganese dissociation. This work incorporates a multiple doping strategy for selecting capacity distribution across various voltage regimes. The resulting electrochemical cells are able to produce useful capacity at 5.2 V, 4.7 V, 4.1 V, and 2.75 V. Additionally, materials synthesized in a laboratory setting and via large scale production via licensing with no cobalt content has resulted in capacities exceeding 200 mAh/g. These materials achieve 75% capacity retention at 3C vs. C/10 discharge down to 2.75 V.

Manufacturing Techniques

This paper presents current research trends and prospects of utilizing additive manufacturing (AM) techniques to manufacture electrical machines. Modern-day machine applications require extraordinary performance parameters such as high power-density, integrated functionalities, improved thermal, mechanical & electromagnetic properties. AM offers a higher degree of design flexibility to achieve these performance parameters, which is impossible to realize through conventional manufacturing techniques. AM has a lot to offer in every aspect of machine fabrication, such that from size/weight reduction to the realization of complex geometric designs. However, some practical limitations of existing AM techniques restrict their utilization in large scale production industry. The introduction of three-dimensional asymmetry in machine design is an aspect that can be exploited most with the prevalent level of research in AM. In order to take one step further towards the enablement of large-scale production of AM-built electrical machines, this paper also discusses some machine types which can best utilize existing developments in the field of AM.

AbstractThree-dimensional (3D) DNA nanostructures built via DNA self-assembly have established recent applications in multiplexed biosensing and storing digital information. However, a key challenge is that 3D DNA structures are not easily copied which is of vital importance for their large-scale production and for access to desired molecules by target-specific amplification. Here, we build 3D DNA structural barcodes and demonstrate the copying and random access of the barcodes from a library of molecules using a modified polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The 3D barcodes were assembled by annealing a single-stranded DNA scaffold with complementary short oligonucleotides containing 3D protrusions at defined locations. DNA nicks in these structures are ligated to facilitate barcode copying using PCR. To randomly access a target from a library of barcodes, we employ a non-complementary end in the DNA construct that serves as a barcode-specific primer template. Readout of the 3D DNA structural barcodes was performed with nanopore measurements. Our study provides a roadmap for convenient production of large quantities of self-assembled 3D DNA nanostructures. In addition, this strategy offers access to specific targets, a crucial capability for multiplexed single-molecule sensing and for DNA data storage.

Abstract Injection moulding is a widespread large-scale production technology for the manufacturing of thermoplastic parts, with small wall thicknesses limiting the feasible flow length. Introducing microthermoforming into the injection moulding process with dynamic mould temperature control enables the production of film-based, plane microstructured parts with further three-dimensional functional structures (e.g. for handling or for fitting in devices/assembly groups). Investigations show that considerable forming is possible with pressures up to 140 bar and forming temperatures far below the glass transition temperature of 50-μm-thick polycarbonate films in cycle times of <3 min. Generally speaking, the novel technology is expected to allow for multifunctional, thin-walled microstructured parts at large scales with short cycle times.

Main Components

A novel finding, that the calcined weathered stones (denoted as CWS) can be employed as the anode materials for lithium ion batteries (LIBs), is reported for the first time in this work. Under the air conditions, the weathered stones were respectively calcined at 400ºC (sample a), 600ºC (sample b) and 800ºC (sample c) for 2 h, with an intention to examine the influence of the calcination temperature on the physicochemical properties of the resultant materials. XRD results indicated that the main components of all the final products were SiO2. And the SEM images demonstrated that all the as-prepared samples were irregular and larger particles with no evident crystal structure. The results of the electrochemical measurements revealed that the initial discharge capacity of sample b was about 104 mAh g-1 at the current density of 100 mA g-1, which was remarkably larger than that of the employed pure SiO2 (50 mAh g-1). Interestingly, after 20 cycles, the discharge capacity of sample b was still maintained as high as 70 mAh g-1, along with a capacity retention rate of about 70%. Although the discharge capacity reported here was lower as compared to the currently reported anode materials, this novel finding was very meaningful to the large scale production of anode materials, mainly due to the rather lower cost and abundant resources as well as the simple preparation process.

Average Size

Particle size effects on the electrochemical performance of the CuO particles toward lithium are essential. In this work, a low-cost, large-scale production but simple approach has been developed to fabricate CuO nanoparticles with an average size in ~ 130 nm through thermolysis of Cu ( OH )2 precursors. As anode materials for lithium ion batteries (LIBs), the CuO nanoparticles deliver a high reversible capacity of 540 mAh g-1 over 100 cycles at 0.5 C. It also exhibits a rate capacity of 405 mAh g-1 at 2 C. These results suggest that the facile synthetic method of producing the CuO nanoparticles can enhance cycle performance, superior to that of some different sizes of the CuO nanoparticles and many reported CuO -based anodes.
