TL;DR: In this paper, a method for extracting metal ions from water is provided that includes disposing two electrically conductive electrodes in water, where the water includes a target ion species in solution, where at least one of the electrically-conductive electrodes is a functionalized electrode having species-specific adsorption of the targeted ion species, and providing electrical current to the electrodes such that the ion species are deposited to metallic form or metal oxides at the functionalised electrode by one or more electrochemical reactions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new structure of thin, flexible Li-ion batteries using paper as separators and free-standing carbon nanotube thinfilms as both current collectors is reported.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a battery-powered electric vehicle with a high specific capacity required to replace the internal combustion engine with a number of possible earth abundant electrode materials, such as lithium-ion batteries.

TL;DR: In this letter, a new terrain type classifier is proposed for polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (Pol-SAR) images that uses the binary tree structure.

TL;DR: A Bayesian-based method is proposed to re-estimate the log-cumulants of compound Wishart distribution for statistical modeling of polarimetric synthetic aperture radar data and demonstrates that the proposed algorithm provides both improved and stabler results.
