Journal ArticleDOI
Hollow Micro-/Nanostructures: Synthesis and Applications**
TL;DR: Hollow micro-/nanostructures are of great interest in many current and emerging areas of technology as discussed by the authors, and a comprehensive overview of synthetic strategies for hollow structures is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lithium–Sulfur Battery Cathode Enabled by Lithium–Nitrile Interaction
TL;DR: The Li( 2)S-carbon composites obtained by carbonizing the precursor are evaluated as cathode materials in a half-cell lithium battery, and are shown to yield high galvanic charge/discharge capacities and excellent Coulombic efficiency, demonstrating the effectiveness of the architecture in homogeneously distributing Li(2)S and in sequestering lithium polysulfides.
Journal ArticleDOI
25th Anniversary Article: Polymer–Particle Composites: Phase Stability and Applications in Electrochemical Energy Storage
TL;DR: This review surveys progress in the last decade in understanding phase behavior, structure, and properties of nanoparticle-polymer composites and explores how physical and chemical approaches may be employed to create hybrids with controlled distribution of particles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Zichao Yang,Juchen Guo,Shyamal K. Das,Yingchao Yu,Zhehao Zhou,Héctor D. Abruña,Lynden A. Archer +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a method of creating lithium sulfide-carbon composites as cathode materials, which can be paired with high-capacity anodes other than metallic lithium, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
An in situ method of creating metal oxide–carbon composites and their application as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries
TL;DR: In this paper, an in situ, scalable method for creating a variety of transition metal oxide-carbon nanocomposites has been developed based on free-radical polymerization and cross-linking of poly(acrylonitrile) in the presence of the metal oxide precursor containing vinyl groups.
