Ionic Liquid Electrolyte with Weak Solvating Molecule Regulation for Stable Li Deposition in High‐Performance Li−O2 Batteries

Y Cai, Y Hou, Y Lu, Q Zhang, Z Yan… - Angewandte …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Li−O 2 batteries with bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide‐based ionic liquid (TFSI‐IL)
electrolyte are promising because TFSI‐IL can stabilize O 2 − to lower charge overpotential. …

Anion‐Reinforced Solvation for a Gradient Inorganic‐Rich Interphase Enables High‐Rate and Stable Sodium Batteries

X Zhou, Q Zhang, Z Zhu, Y Cai, H Li… - Angewandte Chemie, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Metallic Na is a promising anode for rechargeable batteries, however, it is plagued by an
unstable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) and Na dendrites. Herein, a robust anion‐derived …

[HTML][HTML] H3K27me3-rich genomic regions can function as silencers to repress gene expression via chromatin interactions

Y Cai, Y Zhang, YP Loh, JQ Tng, MC Lim, Z Cao… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
The mechanisms underlying gene repression and silencers are poorly understood. Here we
investigate the hypothesis that H3K27me3-rich regions of the genome, defined from clusters …

A 3D hydroxylated MXene/carbon nanotubes composite as a scaffold for dendrite‐free sodium‐metal electrodes

X He, S Jin, L Miao, Y Cai, Y Hou, H Li… - Angewandte Chemie …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Sodium metal is a promising anode, but uneven Na deposition with a dendrite growth seriously
impedes its application. Herein, a fibrous hydroxylated MXene/carbon nanotubes (h‐Ti 3 …

Insights into redox processes and correlated performance of organic carbonyl electrode materials in rechargeable batteries

Y Lu, Y Cai, Q Zhang, J Chen - Advanced Materials, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Organic carbonyl electrode materials have shown great prospects for rechargeable batteries
