TL;DR: This Review outlines major impactful work on silicon-based anodes, and the most recent research directions in this field, specifically, the engineering of silicon architectures, the construction of silicon- based composites, and other performance-enhancement studies including electrolytes and binders.

TL;DR: In this article, a new nonprecious-metal bifunctional catalyst of urchin-like NiCo2S4 microsphere synergized with sulfur-doped graphene nanosheets was designed and synthesized by simply tailoring the structure and electronic arrangement, which endow the as-prepared catalyst with excellent electroactivity and long-term durability toward ORR and OER.

TL;DR: Encouraging results may not only provide important references for the design and fabrication of high-performance MSCs, but also make the RGMA ternary hybrid film promising for the next generation film lithium ion batteries and other energy storage devices.

TL;DR: In this review, the recent emerging strategies and perspectives on LMAs are summarized, following which the current huge evolution in interfacial chemistry regulation, optimizing electrolyte components, designing a rational 'host' for lithium metal, optimizing "solid-state electrolytes" and other emerging strategies for developing high-safety LMAs is highlighted.

TL;DR: In this article, 3D UGF/CNTs/NiO nanosheets are used as spacers to stabilize the composite structure, making the active surfaces of NiO nano-heets accessible for electrolyte penetration and accommodating volume changes during charge/discharge processes.
