Potassium ion energy storage devices are competitive candidates for grid-scale applications owing to the abundancy and cost-effectiveness of potassium (K) resources, low standard redox potential K/K+, high ionic conductivity in K-salt-containing electrolytes. However, sluggish reaction dynamics poor structural instability battery-type anodes caused by insertion/extraction large K+ ions inhibit full K systems. Extensive efforts have been devoted exploration promising anode materials. This...
Ultra-high energy density battery-type materials are promising candidates for supercapacitors (SCs); however, slow ion kinetics and significant volume expansion remain major barriers to their practical applications. To address these issues, hierarchical lattice distorted α-/γ-MnS@Cox Sy core-shell heterostructure constrained in the sulphur (S), nitrogen (N) co-doped carbon (C) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) derived nanosheets (α-/γ-MnS@Cox @N, SC) have been developed. The coordination...
Low-cost, highly efficient, and low-power devices are essential for energy harvesting applications. Despite numerous studies having been conducted on transferable graphene solar cells, large-area growth long-term stability continue to remain elusive, which limits the practicability of graphene-based photovoltaic devices. Plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition is a promising, facile method synthesizing over large area without use metal catalyst, but defects formed during adversely affect...

We have developed fine-pitch, multilayer, superconducting wiring for routing around a ninety-degree corner terminated with wirebonding interfaces. The component-level testbed the Advanced Telescope High Energy Astrophysics (ATHENA) X-Ray Integral Field Unit (X-IFU) focal plane requires compact, high-density, low-crosstalk fanout to connect detectors in array NIST-fabricated SQUID time domain multiplexing (TDM) readout chips. full assembly baselines two interface chips: flexible chip bending...

It is now possible to fabricate stacks of buried wires with extremely high density, perfect yield, and many layers using fine-line lithography chemical mechanical polish. Such wiring in principle will enable large format arrays fine pitch sensors. Buried has the distinct advantage that additional metallization – such as metallic links a thermal multiplexer (“hydra”) design attachment points between absorbers substrate are not limited their placement. In close-packed arrays, crosstalk occurs...
Although graphene has been explosively studied, reduced oxide (rGO) characteristics at low-temperatures have not analyzed. Therefore, in this study, we evaluated the low-temperature electrical properties of high-purity rGO to suggest possible electronic applications graphene.
