Paul Alivisatos*,†,‡ Department of Chemistry, UniVersity of California, Berkeley, California 94720, and Materials Sciences DiVision, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley, California 94720 Received April 5, 2004 ABSTRACT We report a facile method for reproducibly fabricating large-scale device arrays, suitable for nanoelectronics or nanophotonics, that incorporate a controlled number of sub-50-nm-diameter nanocrystals at lithographically defined precise locations on a chip and within a circuit. The interfacial capillary force present during the evaporation of a nanocrystal suspension forms the basis of the assembly mechnism. Our results demonstrate for the first time that macromolecule size particles down to 2-nm diameter and complex nanostructures such as nanotetrapods can be effectively organized by the capillary interaction. This approach integrates the merits of bottom-up solution-processed nanostructures with top-down lithographically prepared devices and has the potential to be scaled up to wafer size for a large number of functional nanoelectronics and nanophotonics applications. Colloidal nanostructures such as metal nanocrystals1,2 and silica particles have been successfully organized into litho- semiconductor quantum dots,3,4 nanorods,5 and nanotetra- graphically patterned templates18 by the capillary force, pods6 with precisely controlled sizes in the range of 1 to forming highly ordered structures, although the diameters 100 nm exhibit a range of behaviors distinct from those of of the particles are typically submicrometer. nanostructures fabricated by vacuum deposition or lithog- It is not obvious whether this approach can be effectively raphy and are promising building units for nanotechnology.

  • Views of SEI − Battery Materials in the TEM,28 32 Allowing for Atomic- Species and Their Role on Anode Stability
    Letter http://pubs.acs.org/journal/aelccp Resolving Nanoscopic and Mesoscopic Heterogeneity of Fluorinated Species in Battery Solid-Electrolyte Interphases by Cryogenic Electron Microscopy William Huang, Hansen Wang, David T. Boyle, Yuzhang Li, and Yi Cui* Cite This: ACS Energy Lett. 2020, 5, 1128−1135 Read Online ACCESS Metrics & More Article Recommendations *sı Supporting Information ABSTRACT: The stability of lithium batteries is tied to the physicochemical properties of the solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI). Owing to the difficulty in characterizing this sensitive interphase, the nanoscale distribution of SEI components is poorly understood. Here, we use cryogenic scanning transmission electron microscopy (cryo-STEM) to map the spatial distribution of SEI components across the metallic Li anode. We reveal that LiF, an SEI component widely believed to play an important role in battery passivation, is absent within the compact SEI film (∼15 nm); instead, LiF particles (100−400 nm) precipitate across the electrode surface. We term this larger length scale as the indirect SEI regime. On the basis of these observations, we conclude that LiF cannot be a dominant contribution to anode passivation nor does it influence Li+ transport across the compact SEI film. We refine the traditional SEI structure derived from ensemble-averaged characterizations and nuance the role of SEI components on battery performance. − ithium (Li)-based batteries are critical to decarbonizing chemistry of the SEI.8 12 These methods offer high spectral transportation owing to their high energy densities.1 resolution and allow speciation of chemical components of the L Despite their importance, a fundamental understanding SEI, but in-plane spatial resolution is limited to the micrometer of all the structures within the battery and their function scale.

  • Molecular Design for Electrolyte Solvents Enabling Energy-Dense and Long-Cycling Lithium Metal Batteries
    ARTICLES https://doi.org/10.1038/s41560-020-0634-5 Molecular design for electrolyte solvents enabling energy-dense and long-cycling lithium metal batteries Zhiao Yu 1,2,6, Hansen Wang 3,6, Xian Kong 1, William Huang 3, Yuchi Tsao1,2,3, David G. Mackanic 1, Kecheng Wang3, Xinchang Wang4, Wenxiao Huang3, Snehashis Choudhury 1, Yu Zheng1,2, Chibueze V. Amanchukwu1, Samantha T. Hung 2, Yuting Ma1, Eder G. Lomeli3, Jian Qin 1, Yi Cui 3,5 ✉ and Zhenan Bao 1 ✉ Electrolyte engineering is critical for developing Li metal batteries. While recent works improved Li metal cyclability, a methodol- ogy for rational electrolyte design remains lacking. Herein, we propose a design strategy for electrolytes that enable anode-free Li metal batteries with single-solvent single-salt formations at standard concentrations. Rational incorporation of –CF2– units yields fluorinated 1,4-dimethoxylbutane as the electrolyte solvent. Paired with 1 M lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, this elec- trolyte possesses unique Li–F binding and high anion/solvent ratio in the solvation sheath, leading to excellent compatibility with both Li metal anodes (Coulombic efficiency ~ 99.52% and fast activation within five cycles) and high-voltage cathodes (~6 V stability). Fifty-μm-thick Li|NMC batteries retain 90% capacity after 420 cycles with an average Coulombic efficiency of 99.98%. Industrial anode-free pouch cells achieve ~325 Wh kg−1 single-cell energy density and 80% capacity retention after 100 cycles. Our design concept for electrolytes provides a promising path to high-energy, long-cycling Li metal batteries. i-ion batteries have made a great impact on society, recognized of fluorinated diluent molecules were further developed to form recently by the Nobel Prize in Chemistry1,2.

Ricco, Robin White, Yoshio Nishi, Wah Chiu, Steven Chu, and Yi Cui* Cite This: https://dx.doi.org/10.1021/acs.nanolett.0c04230 Read Online ACCESS Metrics & More Article Recommendations *sı Supporting Information ABSTRACT: The global COVID-19 pandemic has changed many aspects of daily lives. Wearing personal protective equipment, especially respirators (face masks), has become common for both the public and medical professionals, proving to be effective in preventing spread of the virus. Nevertheless, a detailed under- standing of respirator filtration-layer internal structures and their physical configurations is lacking. Here, we report three-dimen- sional (3D) internal analysis of N95 filtration layers via X-ray tomography. Using deep learning methods, we uncover how the distribution and diameters of fibers within these layers directly affect contaminant particle filtration. The average porosity of the filter layers is found to be 89.1%. Contaminants are more efficiently captured by denser fiber regions, with fibers <1.8 μm in diameter being particularly effective, presumably because of the stronger electric field gradient on smaller diameter fibers. This study provides critical information for further development of N95-type respirators that combine high efficiency with good breathability.

The pandemic led to a shortage of N95-grade filtering facepiece respirators (FFRs), especially surgical-grade N95 FFRs for protection of healthcare profes- sionals against airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2. We and others have previously reported promising decontamination methods that may be applied to the recycling and reuse of FFRs. In this study we tested disinfection of three viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, dried on a piece of meltblown fabric, the principal component responsible for filtering of fine particles in N95- level FFRs, under a range of temperatures (60−95 °C) at ambient or 100% relative humidity (RH) in conjunction with filtration efficiency testing. We found that heat treatments of 75 °C for 30 min or 85 °C for 20 min at 100% RH resulted in efficient decontamination from the fabric of SARS-CoV-2, human coronavirus NL63 (HCoV-NL63), and another enveloped RNA virus, chikungunya virus vaccine strain 181/25 (CHIKV-181/25), without lowering the meltblown fabric’s filtration efficiency.
