The Mg2+/Li+ hybrid battery holds promise for enhancing the energy storage capability. Herein, we establish a system that utilizes (Co,Cu)Se2/CoSex heterostructure grown on carbon cloth as the cathode and APC-LiCl as a dual-salt electrolyte to achieve high reversible capacity, enhanced cyclic stability, and impressive rate performance. First-principles calculations and kinetic analyses are employed to uncover that constructing the heterointerface stimulates the formation of an intrinsic electric field and high-density electron flows, thereby accelerating charge transfer and ion diffusion processes. Finite element simulations further demonstrate that the heterostructure effectively alleviates stresses associated with magnesiation/lithiation to enhance the structural integrity of the material. Moreover, the multistep reaction unveils a stepwise structural transformation pathway. This study initiates a new chapter in designing heterointerface strategies for advanced energy storage devices.","PeriodicalId":53,"journal":{"name":"Nano Letters","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142666484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adhesive polydopamine-functionalized MXene (PDM) was proposed as an interfacial solder to assemble AgNWs along fibers while induced strong cold-welding effect soldered them into superelastic interconnected network. In situ coaxial heterogeneous interlocking between core AgNWs and sheath PDM network gradually formed during the interfacial soldering process, which enables elastic conductor simultaneously owning large mechanical stretchability and high electrical conductivity. Stretchable conductive fiber with core-sheath heterogeneous interlocking structure not only exhibits excellent electrical conductivity (1.13 × 105 S/m) but also could maintain stability (ΔR/R0 < 0.19) even under large mechanical deformations (300%).

The intriguing effect of Rashba-type SOCs on iron-based superconductors (IBSs) has remained largely a mystery. In this work, we unveil modified Landau-level spectroscopy and the intricate band splitting of FeSe monolayers through the precision of scanning tunneling spectroscopy, which unequivocally demonstrates the presence of Rashba SOC. The discovery sheds light on a nonparabolic electron band at the X and/orY point, displaying a distinctive Landau quantization behavior characterized by En ∝ (nB)4/3. The theoretical model aligns with our experimental insights, positing that the k4-term of the electron band becomes predominant and profoundly reshapes the band structure.

However, effectively controlling and separating these entities remain significantly challenging. Here, we demonstrate that anisotropic Kitaev exchange can distinctly influence the static and dynamic behaviors for skyrmions and antiskyrmions, thus aiding their manipulation and separation. Employing the monolayer frustrated magnet NiBr2 as a model system, we construct a magnetic field-strain phase diagram to explore the strain-controlled stability of these topological structures. The introduction of the Kitaev term breaks the energy degeneracy among magnetic structures with various helicities, leading to a translation-rotation mode transition with an increase in current. Importantly, due to their different rotational symmetries, the skyrmion and antiskyrmion show distinct critical behaviors and rotational dynamics, which are governed by the Kitaev parameters. These phenomena enable the design of two proof-of-concept spintronics devices, i.e., a skyrmion separator and a non-gate logic unit.","PeriodicalId":53,"journal":{"name":"Nano Letters","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142646499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A copper nanocluster (CuNC) is screened out to validate the efficient suppression of messy dendrites and side reactions. A CuNC could resurface a zincophilic and protective interlayer for interfacially steering uniform Zn stripping/plating and mitigating corrosion/hydrogen evolution reactions. Impressively, the colloidal electrolyte enables zinc anodes to show a high Coulombic efficiency of 99.8% over 2100 cycles and extended lifespans of 2200 and 1300 h under 0.5 and 5 mA cm-2, respectively.

Electrochemical analysis coupled with in situ XRD confirm the dual-directional electrocatalytic behavior of WNO/NG for accelerating the conversion of lithium polysulfide (LiPSs). Theoretical calculations demonstrate that the intrinsic mechanism underlying the performance enhancement is attributed to the high inherent conductivity of WNO/NG and the efficient interface charge transfer with LiPSs.

The conceptual and quantitative understanding of excitonic effects in nonlinear optical (NLO) processes is more challenging compared to linear ones. Here, we present an ab initio approach to second-order NLO responses, incorporating excitonic effects, that employs an exciton-state coupling formalism and allows for a detailed analysis of the role of individual excitonic states. Taking monolayer h-BN and MoS2 as two prototype 2D materials, we calculate their second harmonic generation (SHG) susceptibility and shift current conductivity tensor. We find strong excitonic enhancement in the NLO responses requires that the resonant excitons are not only optically bright themselves but also able to couple strongly to other bright excitons. Our results explain the occurrence of two strong peaks in the SHG of monolayer h-BN and why the A and B excitons of MoS2 unexpectedly exhibit minimal excitonic enhancement in both SHG and shift current generation.","PeriodicalId":53,"journal":{"name":"Nano Letters","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142666486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
