13 Apr 1990TL;DR: In this paper, a lithium/organosulfur redox cell is described, which comprises a solid lithium anode (20), a liquid organo-sulfur cathode (40), and a barrier layer (30) formed adjacent a surface of the solid anode facing the liquid OO, consisting of a reaction product of the lithium anode with the OO cathode.
Abstract: A lithium/organosulfur redox cell (2) is disclosed which comprises a solid lithium anode (20), a liquid organosulfur cathode (40), and a barrier layer (30) formed adjacent a surface of the solid lithium anode facing the liquid organosulfur cathode consisting of a reaction product of the lithium anode with the organosulfur cathode. The organosulfur cathode comprises a material having the formula (R(S)Y)N where y = 1 to 6, n = 2 to 20, and R is one or more different aliphatic or aromatic organic moieties having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, which may include one or more oxygen, sulfur, nitrogen, or fluorine atoms associated with the chain when R comprises an aliphatic chain, wherein the linear chain may be linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated, and wherein either the aliphatic chain or the aromatic ring may have substituted groups thereon.

TL;DR: A superconductor and precursor therefor from oxide mixtures of Ca, Sr, Bi and Cu is formed from the glass precursors by heating in the presence of oxygen to a temperature below the melting point of the glass as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: A superconductor and precursor therefor from oxide mixtures of Ca, Sr, Bi and Cu. Glass precursors quenched to elevated temperatures result in glass free of crystalline precipitates having enhanced mechanical properties. Superconductors are formed from the glass precursors by heating in the presence of oxygen to a temperature below the melting point of the glass.

TL;DR: The status of current smart grid related efforts are summarized, the direction of research and development activities supported by the DOE are described, and smart grid priorities are explained.
Abstract: In September 2001, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) sponsored a workshop to develop a roadmap on communication and control technologies for distributed energy resources. From this and subsequent activities with industry, academia, and other research institutions, the concepts and vision of an interactive and adaptable electricity system emerged; a vision that is now commonly referred to as smart grid. Supported by significant federal investment announced in 2009, the DOE, its national laboratories, and industry partners are now making significant strides in smart grid deployments, demonstrations, and research. An imperative underlying these activities is that they contribute to ensuring the steps taken in transitioning toward a smart grid retain a system with dependable performance to the economy and society it services. This paper summarizes the status of current smart grid related efforts, explains smart grid priorities, and describes the direction of research and development activities supported by the DOE.

TL;DR: Adsorption, diffusion, and dissociation of CO(2) on the anatase (101) surface were investigated using dispersion-corrected density functional theory and subsurface oxygen vacancy or interstitial Ti defects are found to enhance the bonding of CO (2) molecules to the surface.
Abstract: Adsorption, diffusion, and dissociation of CO(2) on the anatase (101) surface were investigated using dispersion-corrected density functional theory. On the oxidized surface several different local minima were identified of which the most stable corresponds to a CO(2) molecule adsorbed at a five-fold coordinated Ti site in a tilted configuration. Surface diffusion is characterized by relatively small activation barriers. Preferential diffusion takes place along Ti rows and involves a cartwheel type of motion. The presence of a bridging oxygen defect or a surface interstitial Ti atom allows creation of several new strong binding configurations the most stable of which have bent CO(2) structures with simultaneous bonding to two surface Ti atoms. Subsurface oxygen vacancy or interstitial Ti defects are found to enhance the bonding of CO(2) molecules to the surface. CO(2) dissociation from these defect sites is calculated to be exothermic with barriers less than 21 kcal/mol. The use of such defects for catalytic activation of CO(2) on anatase (101) surface would require a mechanism for their regeneration.
