All-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) are considered promising alternatives to current lithium-ion batteries as their use poses less of a safety risk. However, the fabrication of composite cathodes by the conventional slurry (wet) process presents technical challenges, such as limited stability of sulfide electrolytes against organic solvents and the increase of ionic resistance due to the use of insulating polymer binder. Herein, we develop a composite cathode fabricated using a solvent-fr

Uniform co-doping of nitrogen and sulfur on graphene effectively catalyzes the triiodide reduction, resulting in high conversion efficiency of DSSCs.

In this study, we have developed a SiGe dot floating-gate flash memory with high-K dielectric (HfO/sub 2/) tunneling oxide. Using SiGe dots and HfO/sub 2/ tunneling oxide, a low program/erase voltage can be achieved, along with good endurance and charge retention characteristics as compared to the SiGe dots with a SiO/sub 2/ tunneling oxide. We have also examined the impact of Ge concentration in the SiGe dots on charge retention time. This demonstrates that the SiGe dots with HfO/sub 2/ tunneli

Cobalt chrome molybdenum alloy is considered as one of the advanced materials which is widely gaining popularity in various engineering and medical applications. However, it is categorized as difficult to machine material due to its unique combination of properties which include high strength, toughness, wear resistance and low thermal conductivity. These properties tend to hinder the machinability of this alloy which results in rapid tool wear and shorter tool life. This paper presents a genera

Structural pulverization of metal chalcogenides such as Sn-based compounds is a serious issue for development of high-performance anode materials and results in serious capacity fading during continuous charge and discharge cycles. In this work, we synthesize ultrasmall SnS quantum dots (QDs) anchored onto nitrogen-enriched carbon (NC) nanospheres through facile hydrothermal and carbonization processes to prepare a progressive anode material for sodium-ion batteries. The optimized SnS QDs@NC ele
