Journal ArticleDOI

All-wood, low tortuosity, aqueous, biodegradable supercapacitors with ultra-high capacitance

TL;DR: In this article, an all-wood-structured asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) based on an activated wood carbon (AWC) anode, a wood membrane separator and a MnO2/wood carbon (MnO2@WC) cathode is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrafine Silver Nanoparticles for Seeded Lithium Deposition toward Stable Lithium Metal Anode

TL;DR: It is shown that ultrafine silver (Ag) nanoparticles, which are synthesized via a novel rapid Joule heating method, can serve as nanoseeds to direct the deposition of Li within the 3D host materials, resolving the problems of the Li metal anode.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conformal, Nanoscale ZnO Surface Modification of Garnet-Based Solid-State Electrolyte for Lithium Metal Anodes.

TL;DR: An ultrathin, conformal ZnO surface coating by atomic layer deposition is demonstrated for improved wettability of garnet solid-state electrolytes to molten lithium that significantly decreases the interface resistance to as low as ∼20 Ω·cm2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reducing Interfacial Resistance between Garnet-Structured Solid-State Electrolyte and Li-Metal Anode by a Germanium Layer.

TL;DR: This study proposes a new methodology for reducing the garnet/Li-metal interfacial resistance by depositing a thin germanium (Ge) (20 nm) layer on garnet, which enables a stable cycling performance of a full cell of lithium metal, garnet electrolyte, and LiFePO4 cathode at room temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Three-dimensional bilayer garnet solid electrolyte based high energy density lithium metal–sulfur batteries

TL;DR: Li et al. as mentioned in this paper demonstrate a 3D bilayer garnet solid-state electrolyte framework for advanced Li metal batteries to simultaneously address the challenges of chemical/physical short circuits and electrode volume variation.
