Aqueous organic redox flow batteries (RFBs) are promising for grid-scale energy storage. However, identifying stable and inexpensive couples suitable practical applications has been challenging. Herein, we report a robust anolyte species, dextrosil-viologen (Dex-Vi), that demonstrates record overall RFB performance species in neutral aqueous media, including ultralow anion-exchange membrane permeability, high volumetric capacity capability, outstanding chemical stability. Remarkably, at...
Abstract Radiation and corrosion can be coupled to each other in non-trivial ways such coupling is of critical importance for the performance materials extreme environments. However, it has been rarely studied ceramics therefore not well understood what extent these two phenomena are by mechanisms. Here, we discover that radiation-induced chemical changes at grain boundaries have a significant (and positive) impact on resistance materials. Specifically, demonstrate using combination...
This study provides a strategy to improve the phase stability of ceramic material under radiation through interface engineering.
We present a two-dimensional (2D) electrically conductive metal-organic framework (EC-MOF)-based artificial synapse. The intrinsic electronic conductivity and subnanometer channels of the EC-MOF facilitate efficient ion diffusion, enable high density active redox centers, significantly enhance capacitance within As result, synapse operates at an ultralow voltage 10 mV exhibits remarkably low power consumption approximately 1 fW, along with longest retention time recorded for two-terminal...
