Constructing high-performance radiation-resistant ternary YSZ-MgO-CNT nanocomposites via tailored nanostructures
Developing long-lifetime bulk-form ceramic-based materials with high irradiation resistance is crucial for advanced nuclear systems. Here, we incorporated carbon nanotubes (CNTs) into yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) and magnesia (MgO) nanocrystals to fabricate bulk YSZ-MgO-CNT nanocomposites with abundant ternary nanostructures by spark plasma sintering. To understand the role of tailored ternary nanostructure on irradiation, we investigated the microstructure and mechanical properties evolutions of the YSZ-MgO-CNT nanocomposites irradiated by multi-energy He + ions at high temperature to different fluences. Compared with the single-phase YSZ and ultrafine-grained YSZ-MgO composites, the YSZ-MgO-CNT nanocomposites possessed higher ability to manage irradiation-induced He bubbles/defects via the defect-interface interactions of proposed “loading-unloading” and “loading-transporting-unloading” mechanisms for controlling the dynamical behaviors of He atoms/defects in the CNT-doped ternary nanostructures, thereby presenting more stable microstructure and better performance in resisting irradiation hardening. In conclusion, this work provides insight into the design of advanced inert matrix nuclear fuel and new nuclear waste management materials.

Controllable construction of flower-like FeS/Fe 2 O 3 composite for lithium storage
Transitions metal sulfides/oxides have been considered as promising anode candidates for next generation lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to high theoretical capacities. However, the large volume change during lithiation/delithiation process and poor electronic conductivity often result in a poor charging/discharging performance. Herein, we design a flower-like FeS/Fe 2 O 3 composite via a simple “solvothermal-oxidation” method, in which the Fe 2 O 3 is most distributed on the surface of the flower. The unique porous structure and synergistic effect between FeS and Fe 2 O 3 not only accommodate the large volume expansion, but also facilitate Li ion and electron transport. The Fe 2 O 3 shell effectively reduce the dissolution of Li2Sx during discharge/charge process. When serving as the anode material in lithium ion battery, FeS/Fe 2 O 3 exhibits superior specific capacity, rate capacity and cycling stability compared with pure FeS and Fe 2 O 3 .

Constructing stable interface layer for boosting high-voltage cycling performance of single-crystal Ni-rich cathodes
Increasing demand for electric vehicles (EVs) worldwide and the requirements for environmental protection have greatly promoted the development of low-Co, Ni-rich layered cathodes due to their high energy density, reasonable cost, and less environmental pollution. Nevertheless, serious performance degradation and safety concerns resulting from structural/interfacial instability under high operating voltages (≥4.3 V) have greatly hindered its commercialization. Herein, we propose a feasible surface modification strategy by introducing a multifunctional Li 2 SiO 3 (LSO) coating layer onto the surface of Co less single-crystalline LiNi 0.63 Co 0.07 Mn 0.3 O 2 (NCM) to solve the above challenges. Additionally, the uniform Li 2 SiO 3 coating layer has a unique three-dimensional (3D) ion diffusion channel, which greatly promotes the transmission of Li + and alleviates interfacial stress accumulation. Equally important, the electrochemically inert Li 2 SiO 3 coating layer has a stable structure framework with strong Si-O bonds, which inhibit anisotropic particle volume expansion and the occurrence of side reactions during long-term cycling. As a consequence, LSO modified NCM exhibits greatly improved electrochemical properties even at harsh testing conditions and achieves capacity retention of 79.1% after 200 cycles at 25°C within 2.95-4.5 V in half cells. Furthermore, it provides an outstanding capacity retention of 94.7% after 300 cycles at 25°C within 2.95-4.4 V when tested in pouch full cells.

Synthesis, characterization and crystal structure determination of Mn (II) ion based 1D polymer constructed from 2, 2′ bipyridyl and azide group, its thermal stability, magnetic properties and Hirshfeld surface analysis
The 1-D polymeric complex (I) is having formula [Mn(2,2′-BP).(N{sub 3}){sub 2}]{sub n}, which has been crystallized in distilled water and characterized by elemental analyses, FT-IR spectrum, powder X-ray diffraction analyses and single-crystal diffraction analysis. This polymer possesses 1D helical chains or coils where Mn–azide–Mn forms the base of the coil which is alternatively garlanded by rigid bi-pyridine rings, where coordinates are in anti-fashion. The Mn (II) ions in the repeating units are linked by two end-on azide groups which extend through the two end-to-end azide ligands to the next unit forming a 1-D polymeric chain. The present study suggests that the use of this rigid and neutral building block leads to give better arrangement of the polymeric motif with [010] chains in 2-c uninodal net. During investigation of strong or weak intermolecular interactions, X-ray diffraction analysis and Hirshfeld surface analysis give rise to comparable results but in Hirshfeld surface analysis, two-third times more results of close contacts are obtained. The fingerprint plots demonstrate that these weak non-bonding interactions are important for stabilizing the crystal packing. Magnetic properties of the complex (I) were analyzed on the basis of an alternating ferro- and antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain of Mn (II) ions. The J-exchange parameters found are J{sub 1}=64.3 K (45.3 cm{sup −1}), and J{sub 2}=−75.7 K (−53.3 cm{sup −1}).
