However, most studies on graphene's wettability have been performed with either macroscopic water contact angle measurements or molecular dynamics simulations. The detailed hydrogen-bonding network structure of water molecules at the graphene-water interface has not been fully understood at the molecular level. Here, using vibrational sum frequency generation (VSFG) spectroscopy, we elucidate the interfacial water structure and graphene hydrophobicity at a multilayer graphene-water interface. As the number of graphene layers increases, water molecules with dangling OH group become more populated. We compare the contact angles of water on the multilayer graphene surfaces with VSFG results. An excellent correlation between water adhesion energy of graphene and fraction of dangling OH groups estimated from the water OH stretch VSFG spectrum is established. This observation suggests that the VSFG could be an incisive technique for measuring water's adhesion energy on any spatially confined or blocked surface where the water contact angle cannot be measured. We further anticipate that the VSFG result on the transition from wetting transparency to translucency upon increasing the number of graphene layers will be used to understand the wettability of low-dimensional materials and the role of water structure on electric double layers of graphene-based electrodes.","PeriodicalId":244417,"journal":{"name":"Cell Press","volume":"74 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127153005","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using flume experiments and automated optical coherence tomography, we studied the morphogenesis of phototrophic biofilms along a gradient of hydraulic conditions characteristic for small streams. A compact and coalescent biofilm formed under fast flow, whereas protruding clusters separated by troughs formed under slow flow. While the experimentally imposed hydraulic conditions drove this remarkable morphological differentiation, amplicon sequencing did not reveal significant differences in biofilm community composition. Biofilm morphogenesis was linked to flow-induced displacement and reciprocal interactions between biofilm structure and local hydraulics. Automated profiling with microsensors in combination with optical coherence tomography mapped oxygen mass transfer within and around biofilm structures, providing evidence for the local alteration of the mass transfer regime. Overall, these findings evidence the strong coupling between architectural plasticity, efficient mass transfer and mechanical resistance to shear in a phototrophic biofilm.","PeriodicalId":244417,"journal":{"name":"Cell Press","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131456418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, we report a metal-organic powder thermochemical solid-vapor architectonics to direct zeolitic imidazolate framework powder into gradient cobalt/carbon monolith with atomically doped nitrogen, encapsulated cobalt nanoparticles, nanotubes arrays, and well-interconnected grains. The in situ generated H 2 vapor (non-uniform distribution) and Co nanoparticles (uniformly distributed) combines a chemical vapor deposition/growth and a solids-state welding together, leading to formation of the unique gradient monolith. The gradient carbon monolith is of good mechanical stability, therefore is directly used as a freestanding working electrode for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in a seawater battery. This catalyst shows a low overpotential of 84 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 as well as good stability for HER at a constant overpotential of 200 mV for 5 h.

A half-wave potential of 0.80 V for ORR and small overpotentials of 290 mV and 70 mV for OER and HER, respectively, at 10 mA cm−2 are achieved. Hence, a low cell voltage of 1.56 V is required for the acidic overall water splitting. The maximum power density of an H2–O2 fuel cell using the as-prepared catalyst can reach as high as 941 mW cm−2.

The computed redox properties are comprehensively correlated with other properties, namely, electron affinity (EA), solvation energy, charge storage capacity, and energy density. The correlations are further verified to be applied not only to quinones but also to other organic molecules. The established universal correlations highlight three main conclusions. First, EA and solvation energy need to be cooperatively tuned to achieve a specific redox potential. Second, the exceptionally high performance of anthraquinone-2,6-dicarboxylic acid can be explained by the correlation of the redox potential with EA and solvation energy. Third, the differences in the performance between the calculated and experimental values for the other six quinone derivatives mainly result from the Na binding configurations, highlighting the experimental charge capacity is extraordinarily enhanced by metastable Na binding scenarios.","PeriodicalId":244417,"journal":{"name":"Cell Press","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132327995","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was formed inevitably by reacting and decomposing electrolytes on the discharged/charged anode. The interplay between the SEI and anode materials governs the charge transfer and Li+ transport, thus determining the reaction kinetic and electrochemical performance of the batteries. Having a comprehensive understanding of the SEI nature and especially its interplay with the active materials during cycling is crucial for both fundamental and applied research of rechargeable batteries. Herein, the dynamic interplay between SEI and Si anode during cycling and long-term cycles was revealed quantitively and qualitatively by titration gas chromatography (TGC), cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM), and other advanced techniques in terms of charge transfer, nanostructure, and equilibrium. The results show that the SEI electrochemically forms before and through Li-Si alloy reaction, and decomposes during delithiation processes. It consumes more than 10% charges and triggers to form the inactive LixSi by isolating it from the electrical network. It is hard to construct an equilibrium interplay between the SEI and LixSi alloy due to the intrinsic instability of some SEI components (e.g., Li2O and carbonates) and the pulverization of Si anode, resulting in the continuous formation of the SEI and inactive LixSi and thus capacity drop. Therefore, constructing and maintaining an equilibrium interplay between SEI and LixSi is essential to achieve high-performance and high-energy batteries via interfacial engineering, for example, LiF-rich interphase.","PeriodicalId":244417,"journal":{"name":"Cell Press","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121950899","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Electrical vehicles (EV) will play a key role in the solution by positively contributing to these two issues. Further, they represent an important contribution to reduce the impact of greenhouse gases emissions. To achieve that it is still needed to increase their autonomy through improved lithium-ion batteries.The EV market grew in last years in more than 2 million vehicles worldwide, with vehicles with an autonomy between 200 km and 500 km. Base on this growing market and in comparison with the internal combustion vehicles (ICE), a relevant questions arise: to what extent are EVs eco-friendly and cost effective in comparison with ICE vehicles?This work presents a comparative study of EV from different European countries, with special focus on the economic and ecological impact.It is shown that in the European Countries, the economical payback time is achieved in an average of 10 years, ranging from 1 (France) to 24 years (Germany). The environmental benefit is reached in relatively low time (~3-4 years), being more evenly distributed when compared to the economical payback.It is concluded that it is necessary to reduce the price of the electric vehicles to make them more competitive in the automotive market. Further, it is important to combine both economic and environmental benefits by adopting policies within the European Union to reach a more uniform reality among the different countries, with more levelled prices and revenues (incentives, fees and taxes).","PeriodicalId":244417,"journal":{"name":"Cell Press","volume":"105 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124750431","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
