Electrochemical Direct Air Capture of CO 2 Using Redox-Active Textiles

We have used vapor phase chemistry to construct a textile electrode that comprises an immobilized PCET agent, poly(1-aminoanthraquinone) (PAAQ) encapsulated within a conductive polymer, and incorporated it into CO 2 -separating electrochemical flow cells. This system facilitates pH-swing-driven carbon capture from a 1% CO 2 feed and air, with the former at a competitively low energetic cost of 202 kJ/molCO 2 .

Redox Chemistry of the Subphases of α-CsPbI2Br and β-CsPbI2Br: Theory Reveals New Potential for Photostability

The logic in the design of a halide-mixed APb(I 1-x Br x ) 3 perovskite is quite straightforward: to combine the superior photovoltaic qualities of iodine-based perovskites with the increased stability of bromine-based perovskites. However, even small amounts of Br doped into the iodine-based materials leads to some instability. In the present report, using first-principles computations, we analyzed a wide variety of α-CsPbI 2 Br and β-CsPbI 2 Br phases, compared their mixing enthalpies, explored their oxidative properties, and calculated their hole-coupled and hole-free charged Frenkel defect (CFD) formations by considering all possible channels of oxidation. Nanoinclusions of bromine-rich phases in α-CsPbI 2 Br were shown to destabilize the material by inducing lattice strain, making it more susceptible to oxidation. The uniformly mixed phase of α-CsPbI 2 Br was shown to be highly susceptible towards a phase transformation into β-CsPbI 2 Br when halide interstitial or halide vacancy defects were introduced into the lattice. The rotation of PbI 4 Br 2 octahedra in α-CsPbI2Br allows it either to transform into a highly unstable apical β-CsPbI 2 Br, which may phase-segregate and is susceptible to CFD, or to phase-transform into equatorial β-CsPbI 2 Br, which is resilient against the deleterious effects of hole oxidation (energies of oxidation >0 eV) and demixing (energy of mixing <0 eV). Thus, the selective preparation of equatorial β-CsPbI 2 Br offers an opportunity to obtain a mixed perovskite material with enhanced photostability and an intermediate bandgap between its constituent perovskites.

A solid ceramic electrolyte system for measuring redox conditions in high temperature gas mixing studies

The details of the construction and operation of a gas mixing furnace are presented. A solid ceramic oxygen electrolyte cell is used to monitor the oxygen fugacity in the furnace. The system consists of a standard vertical-quench, gas mixing furnace with heads designed for mounting the electrolyte cell and with facilities for inserting and removing the samples. The system also contains the highinput impedance electronics necessary for measurements and a simplified version of standard gas mixing apparatus. The calibration and maintenance of the system are discussed.
