Electrolyte engineering via ether solvent fluorination for developing stable non-aqueous lithium metal batteries

Mounir Driss Mensi, Yubo Zhao

Fluorination of solvents, useful for non-aqueous lithium-based batteries, improves the electrochemical stability but decreases the ionic conductivity. Here, the authors report a targeted functionalization of an ether solvent to balance the electrolyte ioni ...

Challenges in preparing, preserving and detecting para-water in bulk: overcoming proton exchange and other hurdles

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Diego Carnevale, Nicola Salvi, Daniele Mammoli, Roberto Buratto, Estel Canet Martinez

Para-water is an analogue of para-hydrogen, where the two proton spins are in a quantum state that is antisymmetric under permutation, also known as singlet state. The populations of the nuclear spin states in para-water are believed to have long lifetimes ...

Chalcopyrite thin-film solar cells by industry-compatible ink-based process

Cyril Cayron

We developed a new industry-compatible ink-based process to produce efficient chalcopyrite CuIn1-xGaxSe2 thin-film solar cells. Metallic In and Ga nanoparticles were produced by purely physical methods, using a low-cost and non-explosive solvent. The solve ...

Size and surface effects on the MRI relaxivity of manganese ferrite nanoparticle contrast agents

Birgit Mollwitz

Superparamagnetic MnFe2O4 nanocrystals of different sizes were synthesized in high-boiling ether solvent and transferred into water using three different approaches. First, we applied a ligand exchange in order to form a water soluble polymer shell. Second ...
