Batteries: Recent Advances in Carbon Materials

We welcome readers to this Special Issue of C. From the standpoint of economics of energy storage, carbon electrodes offer the practicality of large-scale applications with the promise of improved performance. Key to increases in energy storage and power delivery are the heterogeneous electron transfer (HET) rates with dissolved redox species. Perhaps the most common allotrope of carbon, graphi...

Recent Advances in Microextraction Methods for Sampling and Analysis of Volatile Organic Compounds in Air: A Review

Human exposures to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are associated with a wide range of health problems. Due to these adverse effects of VOCs on the human health, determination of trace levels of VOCs is very important for accurate assessment of indoor and outdoor exposure. Solid phase microextraction (SPME), needle trap device (NTD) and hollow fiber- liquid phase microextraction (HF-LPME) are...

Recent Advances in Inorganic Solid Electrolytes for Lithium Batteries

Present address: Xiao-Liang Wang, Seeo, Inc., 3906 Trust Way, Hayward, CA 94545, USA The review presents an overview of the recent advances in inorganic solid lithium ion conductors, which are of great interest as solid electrolytes in all-solid-state lithium batteries. It is focused on two major categories: crystalline electrolytes and glass-based electrolytes. Important systems such as thio-L...

Recent Advances in Structural Optimization

In this paper we present the main directions of research in Structural Convex Optimization. In this field, we use additional information on the structure of specific problem instances for accelerating standard Black-Box methods. We show that the proper use of problem structure can provably accelerate these methods by the order of magnitudes. As examples, we consider polynomialtime interior-poin...
