The study focuses on the first five galvanostatic cycles to capture the critical early-stage SEI consolidation process, essential for understanding the interfacial phenomena that dictate long-term performance. By employing innovative electrode fabrication techniques such as plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition and utilizing ionic liquid (IL)-based electrolytes—specifically 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (EMIFSI) formulations known for their low viscosity and high conductivity—this work addresses the challenges posed by the significant volume changes inherent to Si-based materials. Advanced characterization methodologies, notably Optical-Photothermal Infrared Spectroscopy (O-PTIR) and Raman spectroscopy are utilized to probe the chemical and structural evolution of the SEI with high spatial resolution. This multifaceted approach reveals the interplay between electrode morphology and electrolyte composition on SEI formation and provides valuable insights into the fundamental processes governing irreversible capacity losses and electrode degradation. The findings demonstrate clear material- and electrolyte-dependent differences in SEI characteristics, thereby establishing new avenues for optimizing interfacial stability and battery performance.

Here, a sustainable upcycling strategy is presented that transforms discarded biaxially-oriented polypropylene (BOPP) films into high-performance anisotropic conductive polymer composites through a low-temperature alternating lamination approach. By harnessing the intrinsic molecular orientation of BOPP and the chemical compatibility with polypropylene random copolymer (PPR), alternating BOPP insulating layer and PPR conductive layers containing conductive fillers are thermally welded at an optimized temperature of 160 °C, enabling strong interfacial bonding while preserving the orientation-induced mechanical advantages. This innovative processing method yields a remarkable 162% improvement in tensile strength and an extraordinary 1193% enhancement in toughness compared to conventional recycled technology. More importantly, the resulting composites exhibit outstanding electrical anisotropy, characterized by an in-plane conductivity of 11.4 S m⁻¹ while maintaining excellent through-thickness insulation. Such a unique integration of mechanical robustness and directional conductivity enables promising applications in next-generation intelligent electronics.

In this report, We developed high-performance triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) utilizing discarded laptop LCD screens as triboelectric layers for energy harvesting and organic dye pollutant degradation. Among all the fabricated devices, the LCDW4-TENG exhibited exceptional performance with fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) as the opposite frictional layer, yielding a V_oc of ≈470 V, I_sc of ≈ 143 µA, and a power density of 5.04 W m⁻² at a load resistance of 1 MΩ. The long-term stability of the device is tested over 6,000 cycles and is found to be very stable. This e-waste-based TENG is employed in the treatment of methylene blue organic dye through TENG-assisted photocatalysis.

The rapid recombination of photogenerated charges within semiconductor materials, such as SrTiO₃ (STO), results in reduced photocatalytic efficiency. To address this, copper-based co-catalysts have garnered considerable attention due to their relative low-cost, natural abundance of constituents, and promising reactivity. In this work, p-Cu(OH)₂/n-SrTiO₃ heterojunctions are prepared for efficient photocatalytic hydrogen production. The SrTiO₃ photocatalysts with a flower-like morphology decorated with Cu(OH)₂ at different weight percentages of Cu (0.1, 0.5, 1, 2, and 5 wt.%) are successfully prepared using a simple solvothermal and photodeposition process.
