Aqueous zinc-metal batteries are plagued by poor Zn reversibility owing to zinc dendrite
and layered double hydroxide (LDH) formation. Here, we introduce a novel additive—N,N-…

The lithium–sulfur battery has long been seen as a potential next generation battery chemistry
for electric vehicles owing to the high theoretical specific energy and low cost of sulfur. …

The development of nonaqueous Li–oxygen batteries, which relies on the reversible reaction
of Li + O 2 to give lithium peroxide (Li 2 O 2 ), is challenged by several factors, not the least …

Atlanto-occipital dislocation (AOD) is being increasingly recognized as a potentially
survivable injury as a result of improved prehospital management of polytrauma patients and …

The understanding of the reaction mechanism and temporal speciation of the lithium–sulfur
batteries is challenged by complex polysulfide disproportionation chemistry coupled with the …

Energy storage is an integral part of modern society. A contemporary example is the lithium (Li)-ion
battery, which enabled the launch of the personal electronics revolution in 1991 and …
