Taming Active Material-Solid Electrolyte Interfaces with Organic Cathode for All-Solid-State Batteries
In the originally published version of this article, the authors reported an initial stack pressure of 0.5 MPa, which was inaccurate due to an incorrect pressure calibration at the time of the study. The authors have since verified that the actual stack pressure was 14 MPa. The authors apologize for the error and would like to emphasize that this change does not alter the scientific conclusions presented in the paper.
A rationally designed scalable thin film nanocomposite cation exchange membrane for precise lithium extraction - Nature Communications
Abstract Precise separation of ions of the same polarity and similar valence and size remains a critical need in resource recovery from waste streams. Here, we report the rational design and scalable fabrication of a thin film nanocomposite (TFN) cation exchange membrane to achieve precise selectivity for lithium over competing cations.
Directly measured high in-plane thermal conductivity of two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks - Nature Communications
Abstract Two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks are promising low-density porous materials for lightweight thermal management, yet comprehensive thermal conductivity measurements remain scarce. Particularly, direct in-plane thermal conductivity data for large-area, fully suspended covalent organic framework thin films has not been reported previously.
Conservative treatment of patients with severe pelvic abscess after ce
Xiaoli Wu,* Xiaobo He,* Jun Lou Department of Obstetrics, Affiliated Women and Children’s Hospital of Ningbo University, Ningbo, Zhejiang, 315012, People’s Republic of China *These authors contributed equally to this work Correspondence: Jun Lou, Email [email protected] Background: The rate of cesarean section (CS) is increasing worldwide (especially in China) reaching 51– 65%. Although severe pelvic abscesses after CS are rare, they are difficult to treat.

Integration of high-κ native oxides of gallium for two-dimensional transistors - Nature Electronics
Abstract The deposition of a metal oxide layer with good dielectric properties is a critical step in fabricating the gate dielectric of transistors based on two-dimensional semiconductors. However, current techniques for depositing ultrathin metal oxide layers on two-dimensional semiconductors suffer from quality issues that can compromise transistor performance.

Area-selective atomic layer deposition on 2D monolayer lateral superlattices - Nature Communications
Abstract The advanced patterning process is the basis of integration technology to realize the development of next-generation high-speed, low-power consumption devices. Recently, area-selective atomic layer deposition (AS-ALD), which allows the direct deposition of target materials on the desired area using a deposition barrier, has emerged as an alternative patterning process. However, the AS-ALD process remains challenging to use for the improvement of patterning resolution and selectivity.
Electrified water treatment: fundamentals and roles of electrode materials - Nature Reviews Materials
Abstract Electrified processes are a versatile way of removing a wide range of contaminants from water, especially those that are difficult to treat using conventional methods. Electrified processes do not need treatment chemicals and use renewable energy more efficiently.
Ultra‐high‐performance liquid chromatography‐tandem mass spectrometry‐based metabolomics unveils the metabolic alterations in colon cancer mice during CT‐guided radiofrequency ablation
RESEARCH ARTICLE Jin Cai and Linfang Zhao contributed equally to the work. Abstract Colon cancer (CC) is a malignancy of the digestive tract, and computed tomography (CT)-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has been extensively adopted in cancer treatment. We aimed to explore the changes in fecal metabolism after CT-guided RFA in CC mice. The orthotopic CC mice received CT-guided RFA upon modeling. Subsequently, we quantified tumor volumes and weights to assess treatment efficacy.
Is More Financial Literacy Always Beneficial? An Investigation through a Mediator
3.1. Mediation Effect Self-assessed financial literacy (7-point scale) and actual financial literacy (5-question scale or 6-question scale) are not directly comparable because of their different scales, but the relative positions of respondents within the distribution of self-assessed literacy and actual literacy do provide information.
High-surface-area corundum nanoparticles by resistive hotspot-induced phase transformation - Nature Communications
Abstract High-surface-area α-Al2O3 nanoparticles are used in high-strength ceramics and stable catalyst supports. The production of α-Al2O3 by phase transformation from γ-Al2O3 is hampered by a high activation energy barrier, which usually requires extended high-temperature annealing (~1500 K, > 10 h) and suffers from aggregation.
An electrochemically stable homogeneous glassy electrolyte formed at room temperature for all-solid-state sodium batteries - Nature Communications
Abstract All-solid-state sodium batteries (ASSSBs) are promising candidates for grid-scale energy storage. However, there are no commercialized ASSSBs yet, in part due to the lack of a low-cost, simple-to-fabricate solid electrolyte (SE) with electrochemical stability towards Na metal.
3D-printed silica with nanoscale resolution - Nature Materials
Abstract Fabricating inorganic materials with designed three-dimensional nanostructures is an exciting yet challenging area of research and industrial application. Here, we develop an approach to 3D print high-quality nanostructures of silica with sub-200 nm resolution and with the flexible capability of rare-earth element doping. The printed SiO2 can be either amorphous glass or polycrystalline cristobalite controlled by the sintering process.
Conversion of non-van der Waals solids to 2D transition-metal chalcogenides
Abstract Although two-dimensional (2D) atomic layers, such as transition-metal chalcogenides, have been widely synthesized using techniques such as exfoliation1,2,3 and vapour-phase growth4,5, it is still challenging to obtain phase-controlled 2D structures6,7,8. Here we demonstrate an effective synthesis strategy via the progressive transformation of non-van der Waals (non-vdW) solids to 2D vdW transition-metal chalcogenide layers with identified 2H (trigonal prismatic)/1T (octahedral) phases.
Composites with carbon nanotubes and graphene: An outlook
Composite materials with carbon nanotube and graphene additives have long been considered as exciting prospects among nanotechnology applications. However, after nearly two decades of work in the area, questions remain about the practical impact of nanotube and graphene composites. This uncertainty stems from factors that include poor load transfer, interfacial engineering, dispersion, and viscosity-related issues that lead to processing challenges in such nanocomposites.
