All-solid-state Li-ion batteries based on ceramic solid electrolyte materials are a promising next-generation energy storage technology with high energy density and enhanced cycle life. The poor interfacial conductance is one of the key limitations in enabling all-solid-state Li-ion batteries. However, the origin of this poor conductance has not been understood, and there is limited knowledge a...

Engineering silicon into nanostructures has been a well-adopted strategy to improve the cyclic performance of silicon as a lithium-ion battery anode. Here, we show that the electrode performance can be further improved by alloying silicon with germanium. We have evaluated the electrode performance of SixGe1-x nanoparticles (NPs) with different compositions. Experimentally, SixGe1-x NPs with com...

Microstructure engineering of electrodes is one the efficient routes to improve rate performance lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Currently, there a lack descriptors rationally guide regional electrode design. Here, we propose two descriptors, time differential average state lithium (SoL) and span SoL in individual particles, identify constraints across depth. 3D microstructure-based electrochemic...

we used an effective electrochemical sensor for the determination of imipramine at ph 7.2 using a carbon nanocomposite electrode. the electrode has been designed by incorporation of montmorillonite nanoclay into the carbon ionic liquid electrode. the high sensitivity of 1.714 μa (μm)-1, two linear calibration ranges of 0.1–2 μm and 2-40 μm, and detection limit of 19 nm were achieved. the relati...

Brain-machine interfaces are a technology with the potential to fundamentally change the way people interact with their environment, but their adoption has been hampered by the invasiveness of conventional implanted cortical microelectrode arrays. Llinás et al. have proposed a novel design for intravascular nanowire electrode arrays, which promise to be less invasive than current technology. Ea...
