Sub‐nanoscale Engineering of MoO ₂ Clusters for Enhanced Sodium Storage

Prussian Blue Analogue Mesoframes for Enhanced Aqueous Sodium-ion Storage

Mesostructure engineering is a potential avenue towards the property control of coordination polymers in addition to the traditional structure design on an atomic/molecular scale. Mesoframes, as a class of mesostructures, have short diffusion pathways for guest species and thus can be an ideal platform for fast storage of guest ions. We report a synthesis of Prussian Blue analogue mesoframes by...

Melting of sodium clusters

Thermal stability properties and the melting-like transition of NaN , N = 13-147, clusters are studied through microcanonical molecular dynamics simulations. The metallic bonding in the sodium clusters is mimicked by a many-body Gupta potential based on the second moment approximation of a tight-binding Hamiltonian. The characteristics of the solid-to-liquid transition in the sodium clusters ar...

One-pot synthesis of uniform carbon-coated MoO(2) nanospheres for high-rate reversible lithium storage.

Uniform carbon-coated MoO(2) nanospheres assembled from small primary nanocrystals have been synthesized by a one-pot hydrothermal method followed by thermal annealing. Because of the desirable structural features, these core-shell MoO(2)@carbon nanospheres exhibit significantly improved electrochemical performance for high-rate reversible lithium storage.

Garbage Collection for Storage-Oriented Clusters

Curator: Self-Managing Storage for Enterprise Clusters

Modern cluster storage systems perform a variety of background tasks to improve the performance, availability, durability, and cost-efficiency of stored data. For example, cleaners compact fragmented data to generate long sequential runs, tiering services automatically migrate data between solid-state and hard disk drives based on usage, recovery mechanisms replicate data to improve availabilit...
