However, it suffers from poor cycle life associated with the rock-salt phase transformation. This study presents a straightforward synthesis approach to enhance the electrochemical performance of LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 through a synergistic solid-state modification with LiF and AlF3. This dual modification promotes rapid Li⁺ diffusion, enables near-complete delithiation/lithiation, approaching the theoretical capacity of disordered LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4, and, more importantly, effectively mitigates the formation of the rock-salt phase, thereby enhancing structural stability, as confirmed by operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and synchrotron X-ray diffraction (SXRD). As a result, the optimized LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (10 mg AlF3 + 30 mg LiF) delivers high reversible capacities of 142.1, 139.1, 129.2, 121.6, 110.3, 93.5, and 76.1 mAh∙g−1 at 0.2C, 0.5C, 1.0C, 2.0C, 3.0C, 4.0C, and 5.0C, respectively. Full cells using graphite as the anode and a high-loading cathode exhibit excellent cycling performance. They retain 80% of their capacity after 200 cycles at 0.5C within a voltage window of 3.5–4.9 V with cathode loading of 11 mg∙cm−2. The findings of this study will significantly advance high-power LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 materials, offering improved battery life and thereby enhancing their potential for practical applications.","lang":"eng"}],"file_date_updated":"2026-07-23T06:15:51Z","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","keyword":["disordered spinel LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (LNMO)","generation 3b batteries","operando SXRD","operando XAS","rock-salt","solid-state synthesis"],"tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","short":"CC BY (4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)"},"fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1002/advs.202515962","article_type":"original","has_accepted_license":"1","OA_type":"gold","PlanS_conform":"1","date_published":"2026-02-23T00:00:00Z","ddc":["540"],"DOAJ_listed":"1","OA_place":"publisher","publication_status":"published","volume":13,"department":[{"_id":"MaIb"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"month":"02","article_processing_charge":"Yes","date_created":"2025-12-21T23:01:35Z","supplementarymaterial":"yes","quality_controlled":"1","project":[{"_id":"9B8F7476-BA93-11EA-9121-9846C619BF3A","name":"HighTE: The Werner Siemens Laboratory for the High Throughput Discovery of Semiconductors for Waste Heat Recovery"}],"scopus_import":"1","author":[{"first_name":"Xingqi","full_name":"Chang, Xingqi","last_name":"Chang"},{"first_name":"Carlos","last_name":"Escudero","full_name":"Escudero, Carlos"},{"first_name":"Ashley P.","last_name":"Black","full_name":"Black, Ashley P."},{"first_name":"Sharona","id":"03a7e858-01b1-11ec-8b71-99ae6c4a05bc","last_name":"Horta","full_name":"Horta, Sharona"},{"first_name":"Elías","full_name":"Martínez, Elías","last_name":"Martínez"},{"first_name":"Xuan","last_name":"Lu","full_name":"Lu, Xuan"},{"last_name":"Llorca","full_name":"Llorca, Jordi","first_name":"Jordi"},{"last_name":"Ibáñez","id":"43C61214-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Ibáñez, Maria","first_name":"Maria","orcid":"0000-0001-5013-2843"},{"full_name":"Biendicho, Jordi Jacas","last_name":"Biendicho","first_name":"Jordi Jacas"},{"last_name":"Cabot","full_name":"Cabot, Andreu","first_name":"Andreu"}],"publication":"Advanced Science","type":"journal_article","doi":"10.1002/advs.202515962","oa":1,"title":"Mitigating the rock-salt phase transformation in disordered LNMO through synergetic solid-state AlF3/LiF modifications","pmid":1,"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2198-3844"]},"article_number":"e15962"},{"article_number":"123348","doi":"10.1016/j.ces.2026.123348","type":"journal_article","publication_identifier":{"issn":["1873-4405"],"eissn":["0009-2509"]},"oa":1,"title":"Hydrogen induced palladium-based heterojunction electrocatalysts to enhance the oxygen reduction reaction performance","author":[{"last_name":"Shi","full_name":"Shi, Changwei","first_name":"Changwei"},{"first_name":"Sharona","last_name":"Horta","id":"03a7e858-01b1-11ec-8b71-99ae6c4a05bc","full_name":"Horta, Sharona"},{"last_name":"Ibáñez","id":"43C61214-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Ibáñez, Maria","first_name":"Maria","orcid":"0000-0001-5013-2843"},{"last_name":"Kallio","full_name":"Kallio, Tanja","first_name":"Tanja"},{"last_name":"Martínez-Alanis","full_name":"Martínez-Alanis, Paulina R.","first_name":"Paulina R."},{"first_name":"Xiang","last_name":"Wang","full_name":"Wang, Xiang"},{"first_name":"Andreu","last_name":"Cabot","full_name":"Cabot, Andreu"}],"publication":"Chemical Engineering Science","scopus_import":"1","quality_controlled":"1","project":[{"name":"HighTE: The Werner Siemens Laboratory for the High Throughput Discovery of Semiconductors for Waste Heat Recovery","_id":"9B8F7476-BA93-11EA-9121-9846C619BF3A"}],"supplementarymaterial":"yes","date_created":"2026-01-25T23:01:39Z","article_processing_charge":"Yes (in subscription journal)","month":"04","volume":324,"department":[{"_id":"MaIb"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication_status":"published","OA_place":"publisher","article_type":"original","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ces.2026.123348","tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","short":"CC BY (4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)"},"ddc":["540"],"date_published":"2026-04-01T00:00:00Z","has_accepted_license":"1","PlanS_conform":"1","OA_type":"hybrid","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) remains a critical bottleneck in fuel cells and metal-air batteries due to the lack of highly efficient electrocatalysts.

Within the heterostructure, hydrogen intercalation expands the Pd lattice, while interstitial hydrogen doping facilitates charge transfer from Pd to H owing to their electronegativity difference. These synergistic effects modulate the electronic structure, thereby enhancing both activity and stability. When employed in Zn-air batteries, PdH-Pd@CN delivers a maximum power density of 176 mW cm− (Liu et al., 2025) and capacity of 805 mAh g− (Sun et al., 2021) Zn.

Although effective, these approaches alter multiple contributions to the interparticle potential simultaneously, making it difficult to isolate the interactions responsible for ordering or to control assembly in chemically complex environments. Here, we show that oligomeric species present in a nanocrystal reaction medium drive superlattice formation through a depletion mechanism. Using PbTe nanocrystals as a model system, we identify Pb–oleate oligomers in the crude reaction mixture, characterize their solution structure, and quantify their contribution to the interparticle potential, establishing depletion as the dominant short-range interaction governing spontaneous body-centered cubic superlattice formation. We then confirm the depletion origin of ordering by showing that varying depletant concentration predictably shifts the order–disorder boundary and produces a thermally reversible transition between dispersed and ordered states ─ behavior that is inconsistent with van der Waals or ligand-mediated mechanisms but is a direct consequence of depletion control. Having established and validated the mechanism, we demonstrate that the same depletion framework can be deliberately activated in purified dispersions and transferred across nanocrystal systems of different composition and shape, including anisotropic and binary assemblies. These results establish precursor-derived depletion as a general and chemically grounded mechanism for nanocrystal superlattice formation, and show that collective ordering can be programmed through the surrounding medium rather than through particle surface modification.","lang":"eng"}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","date_updated":"2026-08-04T06:47:13Z"},{"publication":"ACS Energy Letters","author":[{"id":"2A70014E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Liu","full_name":"Liu, Yu","first_name":"Yu","orcid":"0000-0001-7313-6740"},{"last_name":"Kleinhanns","id":"8BD9DE16-AB3C-11E9-9C8C-2A03E6697425","full_name":"Kleinhanns, Tobias","first_name":"Tobias","orcid":"0000-0003-1537-7436"},{"first_name":"Maria Chiara","last_name":"Spadaro","full_name":"Spadaro, Maria Chiara"},{"first_name":"Aziz","last_name":"Genç","full_name":"Genç, Aziz"},{"last_name":"Horta","id":"03a7e858-01b1-11ec-8b71-99ae6c4a05bc","full_name":"Horta, Sharona","first_name":"Sharona"},{"full_name":"Navita, Navita","id":"6ebe278d-ba0b-11ee-8184-f34cdc671de4","last_name":"Navita","orcid":"0000-0001-7408-8197","first_name":"Navita"},{"last_name":"Costanzo","id":"D93824F4-D9BA-11E9-BB12-F207E6697425","full_name":"Costanzo, Tommaso","first_name":"Tommaso","orcid":"0000-0001-9732-3815"},{"id":"0601cc46-c082-11ec-9b07-bb29641d1de9","last_name":"Dutkiewicz","full_name":"Dutkiewicz, Ewelina","first_name":"Ewelina"},{"first_name":"Jordi","full_name":"Arbiol, Jordi","last_name":"Arbiol"},{"full_name":"Hong, Min","last_name":"Hong","first_name":"Min"},{"full_name":"Ibáñez, Maria","id":"43C61214-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Ibáñez","orcid":"0000-0001-5013-2843","first_name":"Maria"}],"corr_author":"1","scopus_import":"1","oa":1,"title":"Exploiting mismatch strain and the β–α phase transition for microstructural engineering in thermoelectric Ag2Se","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2380-8195"]},"type":"journal_article","doi":"10.1021/acsenergylett.6c01499","month":"08","page":"5752-5762","publication_status":"published","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"volume":11,"department":[{"_id":"MassSpec"},{"_id":"MaIb"},{"_id":"GradSch"},{"_id":"EM-Fac"}],"project":[{"name":"HighTE: The Werner Siemens Laboratory for the High Throughput Discovery of Semiconductors for Waste Heat Recovery","_id":"9B8F7476-BA93-11EA-9121-9846C619BF3A"}],"quality_controlled":"1","article_processing_charge":"Yes (via OA deal)","supplementarymaterial":"yes","date_created":"2026-08-18T11:34:03Z","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","file_date_updated":"2026-08-19T05:52:41Z","abstract":[{"text":"Silver selenide (Ag2Se) is a promising near-room-temperature thermoelectric material, but its narrow stoichiometric window and β–α phase transition complicate reproducible microstructure control. Here, we present a mismatch-assisted microstructure engineering strategy in which Ag2Se particles are treated with polyanionic ZnSe complexes and consolidated through the β–α transition to introduce ZnSe nanoprecipitates, Ag2Se/ZnSe interfaces, and local strain fields. The crystallographic mismatch between ZnSe and Ag2Se, together with the Zn2+/Ag+ size difference, amplifies phase-transition-induced deformation and promotes high-density dislocations with periodic strain modulations. This defect architecture suppresses grain coarsening, removes excess Ag, limits Ag-interstitial formation, and reduces lattice thermal conductivity through lattice softening and multiscale phonon scattering. Ag2Se–4%ZnSe nanocomposites achieve a peak zTmax of 1.13 at 369 K and a zTavg of 1.08 from 300 to 380 K, demonstrating mismatch-driven defect engineering through the β–α phase transition as a route for optimizing Ag2Se-based thermoelectrics.","lang":"eng"}],"date_updated":"2026-08-19T05:53:33Z","OA_place":"publisher","PlanS_conform":"1","OA_type":"hybrid","date_published":"2026-08-14T00:00:00Z","has_accepted_license":"1","ddc":["540"],"tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","short":"CC BY (4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)"},"article_type":"letter_note","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1021/acsenergylett.6c01499","day":"14","das_tickbox":"0","publisher":"American Chemical Society","acknowledgement":"Open access funding provided by Institute of Science and Technology Austria.

Here, we show that alkali ions introduced during the solution synthesis of SnSe are retained through particle isolation and continue to influence the material during subsequent thermal processing, where they shape the evolution of the final polycrystalline material. Different SnSe powders were prepared using Li+, Na+, and K+ precursors, as well as tetramethylammonium (TMA+) precursors as a nonalkali reference for comparison, and all samples were consolidated under identical conditions. Although all three alkali ions were found in the matrix, at grain boundaries, and in segregated nanoscale regions, they partitioned differently and resulted in distinct grain sizes, defect distributions, and therefore transport properties. Li induced the strongest grain size heterogeneity and the lowest energy barriers, Na the best overall balance between carrier concentration and mobility, and K the broadest alkali-rich grain boundary regions along with the strongest interfacial penalty to charge carrier transport. These results show that residual alkali ions are not just remnants of solution synthesis but active determinants of microstructure and thermoelectric performance in SnSe."}],"date_updated":"2026-10-06T12:16:03Z","OA_place":"publisher","ddc":["540"],"PlanS_conform":"1","date_published":"2026-09-22T00:00:00Z","has_accepted_license":"1","OA_type":"hybrid","article_type":"original","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.chemmater.6c01284","tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","short":"CC BY (4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)"},"day":"22","das_tickbox":"0","citation":{"ista":"Fiedler C, Horta S, Jakhar N, Maji K, Kleinhanns T, Llorca J, Wang Q, Ramon MG, Das S, Gavini V, Liu Y, Ibáñez M. 2026.

Nonetheless, the mechanisms by which additives influence the formation and characteristics of the inorganic solid–electrolyte interphase (SEI) are not yet fully elucidated. Herein, we investigate how Zn(CF3COO)2 additives influence solvation structure and elucidate the mechanism by which these additives promote the dual reduction of anions. Through cryo-transmission electron microscopy analysis, we identified the SEI as a highly amorphous ZnS/ZnF2 phase. This amorphous hybrid SEI demonstrates exceptional stability, mechanical robustness, and high Zn2+ conductivity, effectively mitigating parasitic reactions and enhancing Zn plating/stripping reversibility. Even under elevated current densities, the Zn anode exhibits ultra-stable longevity and ultra-high reversibility. This study provides a comprehensive understanding of the intrinsic mechanisms governing solvation structure modulation that lead to the formation of amorphous hybrid SEI, underscoring their efficacy in enhancing the performance and durability of AZIBs."}],"date_updated":"2025-07-10T11:51:27Z"},{"publisher":"AAAS","citation":{"apa":"Xu, S., Horta, S., Lawal, A.

However, its practical application is hindered by significant volumetric fluctuations during lithiation/delithiation, alongside a metastable nature, which induces mechanical instability and irreversible lithium consumption, ultimately impairing long-term capacity retention in full-battery cell configurations. In this study, we present a phase-engineering approach designed to improve the structural stability of SiOx anodes for LIB applications. By incorporating lithium fluoride, amorphous SiOx undergoes partial transformation into a quartz-like phase, which enhances mechanical integrity and mitigates irreversible lithium loss. This modified anode demonstrates significantly improved stability and prolonged cycle lifespan. Through a combination of multiscale simulations and in situ characterizations, we elucidate the stabilization mechanisms conferred by the quartz phase, providing critical insights into the role of SiOx’s crystal structure in influencing degradation pathways. This work introduces an accessible and efficient method for controlling the crystallinity of SiOx, offering a practical solution to enhance the durability of high-energy-density LIBs."}],"user_id":"317138e5-6ab7-11ef-aa6d-ffef3953e345","article_type":"original","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1021/acsnano.5c03074","OA_type":"closed access","date_published":"2025-04-16T00:00:00Z","oa_version":"None","_id":"19629","status":"public","year":"2025","acknowledgement":"This work was supported by the Guangdong Basic and Applied Basic Research Foundation (2023A1515110828) and the Generalitat de Catalunya (2021SGR01581).

In this study, we employ transverse thermoelectric measurements to investigate the ferroelectric distortion in the topological crystalline insulator (TCI) Pb0.60Sn0.40Te, a compound derived from PbTe and SnTe, known for their exceptional thermoelectric performance and distinct ferroelectric properties. By leveraging Nernst measurements, we provide direct evidence of ferroelectric distortion in this TCI, corroborated by Shubnikov–de Haas quantum oscillations that confirm the presence of two topologically nontrivial Fermi pockets. Density functional theory calculations show that these pockets originate from the L and T points in the Brillouin zone of the distorted structure within the TCI phase. Raman spectroscopy further identifies a structural phase transition below 50 K, consistent with the quantum oscillation observations. This observation is further substantiated by temperature-dependent synchrotron X-ray pair distribution function analysis and transmission electron microscopy, which confirm the local off-centering of cations at low temperature. These findings underscore the potential of transverse thermoelectric measurements in unveiling ferroelectric distortions and their role in modulating topological quantum states, opening new directions for research into the synergy between ferroelectricity and topological phases."}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"publication":"Proceedings of the MATSUS Spring 2025 Conference","author":[{"first_name":"Seungho","orcid":"0000-0002-6962-8598","full_name":"Lee, Seungho","id":"BB243B88-D767-11E9-B658-BC13E6697425","last_name":"Lee"},{"full_name":"Balazs, Daniel","id":"302BADF6-85FC-11EA-9E3B-B9493DDC885E","last_name":"Balazs","orcid":"0000-0001-7597-043X","first_name":"Daniel"},{"first_name":"Sharona","full_name":"Horta, Sharona","id":"03a7e858-01b1-11ec-8b71-99ae6c4a05bc","last_name":"Horta"},{"id":"8aceb01b-8972-11ed-ae7b-d5fe53775add","last_name":"Rayaroth Puthiyaveettil","full_name":"Rayaroth Puthiyaveettil, Aiswarya","first_name":"Aiswarya"},{"orcid":"0000-0001-5013-2843","first_name":"Maria","last_name":"Ibáñez","id":"43C61214-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Ibáñez, Maria"}],"conference":{"end_date":"2025-03-07","name":"MATSUS: Materials for Sustainable Development Conference","location":"Sevilla, Spain","start_date":"2025-03-03"},"corr_author":"1","article_number":"173","title":"Reaction precursor-mediated formation of stable supercrystals in colloidal nanocrystal synthesis: PbTe case","type":"conference","doi":"10.29363/nanoge.matsusspring.2025.173","month":"03","publication_status":"published","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"department":[{"_id":"MaIb"},{"_id":"LifeSc"}],"project":[{"_id":"9B8F7476-BA93-11EA-9121-9846C619BF3A","name":"HighTE: The Werner Siemens Laboratory for the High Throughput Discovery of Semiconductors for Waste Heat Recovery"}],"quality_controlled":"1","article_processing_charge":"No","date_created":"2025-07-21T08:33:20Z","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"Supercrystals represent three-dimensional orderings of colloidal nanocrystals (NCs), showcasing collective properties in photonics, phononics, and electronics applications.1,2 Recent studies have shown that such assemblies are directly produced during nanocrystal reactions.3–6 However, a fundamental understanding of in situ formed supercrystals that withstand typical NC purification processes remains underexplored, which is important for further use. Herein, we report the reaction precursor-mediated formation of stable PbTe supercrystals. Rationalizing the formation of these assemblies through small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements, we unveil their formation mechanism. Our findings reveal that the supercrystal formation occurs in the presence of an excess of lead oleates in the crude solution. It should be noted that the formed supercrystals can be stabilized under specific conditions determined by the lead oleate cluster concentration, content of trioctylphosphine telluride (TOP-Te), NC size and the need of an annealing step at mild conditions. Furthermore, this approach allows for the continuous growth of a secondary phase within the supercrystal; for example in the case of PbTe supercrystals, a PbS shell can be grown on each PbTe NC constituent, resulting in core-shell PbTe-PbS supercrystals. Our work elucidates that reaction precursors play an important role in in situ SC formation and stabilization, implying the possibility of applying this knowledge to other NC reactions."}],"date_updated":"2026-02-19T09:25:57Z","OA_type":"closed access","date_published":"2025-03-15T00:00:00Z","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.29363/nanoge.matsusspring.2025.173","day":"15","publisher":"Fundació de la comunitat valenciana SCITO","year":"2025","citation":{"ieee":"S.

Here, we leverage surface chemistry and core/shell architectures to uncover the contribution of dopants at the nanocrystal surface and of dopants in the nanocrystal bulk. We first assess the doping efficiency by ICP and find that, while Eu is almost quantitatively incorporated, the other lanthanides (La, Ce, Tb, Tm, Er, Yb) have about 50% incorporation efficiency over the studied doping range of 1–10%. We then determine the nanocrystal surface chemistry using NMR spectroscopy, despite the additional spectral line broadening caused by the paramagnetic lanthanide dopants. By varying the surface ligands and measuring the photoluminescence, we resolve the spectroscopic signals that are sensitive to a change in surface chemistry. Time-resolved emission spectra further reinforce the notion of a bulk component with a long luminescent lifetime and a surface component with a fast lifetime. Upon shelling Eu- or Tb-doped zirconia NCs with pure zirconia, the surface component disappears, and the photoluminescence quantum yield increases. We further functionalized the surface of the core/shell particles with oleylphosphonic acid ligands to obtain excellent dispersibility. These results show that lanthanide-doped zirconia NCs can be engineered to eliminate deactivation pathways.","lang":"eng"}],"user_id":"317138e5-6ab7-11ef-aa6d-ffef3953e345"},{"OA_place":"publisher","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1002/adma.202510906","article_type":"original","tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","short":"CC BY (4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)"},"ddc":["530"],"date_published":"2025-09-30T00:00:00Z","OA_type":"hybrid","has_accepted_license":"1","PlanS_conform":"1","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"The practical implementation of aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) is limited by uncontrolled zinc (Zn) dendrite growth during anode plating, compromising both safety and cycle life. Typically, Zn plating proceeds via 2D growth along the six equivalent prismatic [1010] directions of the hexagonal close-packed (HCP) Zn lattice, forming hexagonal platelets that promote dendrite formation. Here, an effective electrolyte engineering strategy is presented using rare-earth ions to regulate Zn plating. Combined multiscale experimental analyses and computational modeling reveal that these ions preferentially adsorb onto the prismatic {1010} facets, suppressing lateral epitaxial growth of the basal (0002) planes. This redirects Zn plating toward an apparent screw dislocation-driven growth along the [0001] axis. The resulting growth pathway, together with randomly oriented Zn nucleation, yields dense, uniform, and dendrite-free Zn layers with markedly improved cycling stability and high depth-of-discharge operation, thereby challenging the prevailing assumption that dendrite suppression requires (0002)-oriented growth parallel to the substrate. This work provides new mechanistic insights into Zn plating dynamics and establishes a scalable strategy for stable, dendrite-free Zn anodes in next-generation AZIBs."}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","date_updated":"2025-12-01T12:56:48Z","external_id":{"isi":["001583809400001"],"pmid":["41025826"]},"acknowledged_ssus":[{"_id":"NanoFab"},{"_id":"EM-Fac"}],"citation":{"mla":"Zeng, Guifang, et al. “Crystal Growth Engineering for Dendrite-Free Zinc Metal Plating.” <i>Advanced Materials</i>, e10906, Wiley, 2025, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1002/adma.202510906\">10.1002/adma.202510906</a>.","short":"G.

The resulting Ag2Se-CdSe nanocomposites exhibit a reproducible, stable figure of merit (zT) of 1.04 between 300 and 390 K.

However, sluggish ionic transport kinetics and the unstable electrode structure during ionic insertion/extraction hampers their deployment. Herein,  we propose a new cathode material based on a layered metal chalcogenide (LMC), bismuth telluride (Bi<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>Te<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>), coated with polypyrrole (PPy). Taking advantage of the PPy coating, the Bi<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>Te<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>@PPy composite presents strong ionic absorption affinity, high oxidation resistance, and high structural stability. The ZIBs based on Bi<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>Te<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>@PPy cathodes exhibit high capacities and ultra‐long lifespans of over 5000 cycles. They also present outstanding stability even under bending. In addition,  we analyze here the reaction mechanism using in situ X‐ray diffraction, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and computational tools and demonstrate that, in the aqueous system, Zn<jats:sup>2+</jats:sup> is not inserted into the cathode as previously assumed. In contrast, proton charge storage dominates the process. Overall, this work not only shows the great potential of LMCs as ZIBs cathode materials and the advantages of PPy coating, but also clarifies the charge/discharge mechanism in rechargeable ZIBs based on LMCs.","lang":"eng"}],"user_id":"317138e5-6ab7-11ef-aa6d-ffef3953e345","dataavailabilitystatement":"The data that support the findings of this study are available from the corresponding author upon reasonable request.","acknowledged_ssus":[{"_id":"EM-Fac"}],"intvolume":"        36","issue":"1","external_id":{"isi":["001085681000001"],"pmid":["37555532"]},"oa_version":"None","researchdata_availability":"upon request","_id":"14435","status":"public","publisher":"Wiley","citation":{"short":"G.

Despite their potential, the complex composition and associated surface phenomena of HEMs pose challenges to their rational design and development. In this context, we have synthesized FeCoNiPdWP high entropy phosphide (HEP) nanoparticles using a low-temperature colloidal method, and explored their application as bifunctional electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution and reduction reactions (OER/ORR). Our analysis provides a detailed understanding of the individual roles and transformations of each element during OER/ORR operation. Notably, the HEPs exhibit an exceptionally low OER overpotential of 227 mV at 10 mA cm−2, attributed to the reconstructed HEP surface into a FeCoNiPdW high entropy oxyhydroxide with high oxidation states of Fe, Co, and Ni serving as the active sites. Additionally, Pd and W play crucial roles in modulating the electronic structure to optimize the adsorption energy of oxygen intermediates. For the ORR, Pd emerges as the most active component. In the reconstructed catalyst, the strong d–d orbital coupling of especially Pd, Co, and W fine-tunes ORR electron transfer pathways, delivering an ORR half-wave potential of 0.81 V with a pure four-electron reduction mechanism. The practicality of these HEPs catalysts is showcased through the assembly of aqueous zinc–air batteries. These batteries demonstrate a superior specific capacity of 886 mA h gZn−1 and maintain excellent stability over more than 700 hours of continuous operation. Overall, this study not only elucidates the role of each element in HEMs but also establishes a foundational framework for the design and development of next-generation bifunctional oxygen catalysts, broadening the potential applications of these complex materials in advanced energy systems."}],"date_updated":"2026-10-16T10:04:37Z","date_published":"2024-08-22T00:00:00Z","OA_type":"closed access","article_type":"original","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1039/d4ee01912a","isi":1,"day":"22","das_tickbox":"1","publisher":"Royal Society of Chemistry","acknowledgement":"This work was financially supported by the SyDEC at project from the Spanish MCIN/AEI/FEDER (PID2022-136883OB-C22) and Generalitat de Catalunya 2021SGR01581.

However, the library of RT high-performance materials is limited. Traditional high-temperature synthetic methods constrain the range of materials achievable, hindering the ability to surpass crystal structure limitations and engineer defects. Here, a solution-based synthetic approach is introduced, enabling RT synthesis of powders and exploration of densification at lower temperatures to influence the material's microstructure. The approach is exemplified by Ag2Se, an n-type alternative to bismuth telluride. It is demonstrated that the concentration of Ag interstitials, grain boundaries, and dislocations are directly correlated to the sintering temperature, and achieve a figure of merit of 1.1 from RT to 100 °C after optimization. Moreover, insights into and resolve Ag2Se's challenges are provided, including stoichiometry issues leading to irreproducible performances. This work highlights the potential of RT solution synthesis in expanding the repertoire of high-performance thermoelectric materials for practical applications."}],"file_date_updated":"2024-07-22T12:07:56Z","user_id":"317138e5-6ab7-11ef-aa6d-ffef3953e345","date_updated":"2026-10-16T10:07:26Z","related_material":{"record":[{"status":"public","id":"22017","relation":"dissertation_contains"}]},"quality_controlled":"1","project":[{"_id":"9B8F7476-BA93-11EA-9121-9846C619BF3A","name":"HighTE: The Werner Siemens Laboratory for the High Throughput Discovery of Semiconductors for Waste Heat Recovery"}],"article_processing_charge":"Yes (via OA deal)","supplementarymaterial":"yes","date_created":"2024-03-25T08:57:40Z","month":"06","publication_status":"published","volume":14,"department":[{"_id":"MaIb"},{"_id":"LifeSc"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_number":"2400408","type":"journal_article","doi":"10.1002/aenm.202400408","oa":1,"title":"A route to high thermoelectric performance: Solution‐based control of microstructure and composition in Ag2Se","publication_identifier":{"issn":["1614-6832"],"eissn":["1614-6840"]},"author":[{"full_name":"Kleinhanns, Tobias","last_name":"Kleinhanns","id":"8BD9DE16-AB3C-11E9-9C8C-2A03E6697425","first_name":"Tobias","orcid":"0000-0003-1537-7436"},{"full_name":"Milillo, Francesco","id":"38b830db-ea88-11ee-bf9b-929beaf79054","last_name":"Milillo","first_name":"Francesco"},{"last_name":"Calcabrini","id":"45D7531A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Calcabrini, Mariano","first_name":"Mariano","orcid":"0000-0003-4566-5877"},{"first_name":"Christine","last_name":"Fiedler","id":"bd3fceba-dc74-11ea-a0a7-c17f71817366","full_name":"Fiedler, Christine"},{"first_name":"Sharona","full_name":"Horta, Sharona","id":"03a7e858-01b1-11ec-8b71-99ae6c4a05bc","last_name":"Horta"},{"full_name":"Balazs, Daniel","id":"302BADF6-85FC-11EA-9E3B-B9493DDC885E","last_name":"Balazs","first_name":"Daniel","orcid":"0000-0001-7597-043X"},{"first_name":"Marissa J.","full_name":"Strumolo, Marissa J.","last_name":"Strumolo"},{"full_name":"Hasler, Roger","last_name":"Hasler","first_name":"Roger"},{"first_name":"Jordi","last_name":"Llorca","full_name":"Llorca, Jordi"},{"first_name":"Michael","full_name":"Tkadletz, Michael","last_name":"Tkadletz"},{"last_name":"Brutchey","full_name":"Brutchey, Richard L.","first_name":"Richard L."},{"full_name":"Ibáñez, Maria","last_name":"Ibáñez","id":"43C61214-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Maria","orcid":"0000-0001-5013-2843"}],"publication":"Advanced Energy Materials","scopus_import":"1","corr_author":"1"},{"acknowledgement":"All authors acknowledge financial support from the Werner Siemens Foundation","year":"2024","citation":{"ista":"Ibáñez M, Xu S, Horta S, Lawal AQ. 2024.

This technology is appealing because it can provide precise and localized cooling and heating without using hazardous liquids or gases commonly found in traditional vapor compression refrigeration. These devices are compact, customizable in size, work in any orientation, operate noiselessly, and require minimal maintenance. Even though thermoelectric coolers could be transformative for many advanced thermal management applications, their widespread adoption is hindered by the low efficiency of the thermoelectric materials and costly manufacturing processes.\r\n In this work, we use extrusion-based 3D printing techniques to fabricate high-performance thermoelectric materials using nanomaterial-based ink. The ink formulation is optimized to ensure structural integrity and particle interfacial bonding during annealing, providing p- and n-type materials with record-high zT values of 1.46 and 1.35 at room temperature, respectively. Moreover, we integrate the printed materials into a 32-pair device and achieve a significant cooling temperature gradient of 50 °C and a coefficient of performance of 3.8, comparable to best-performing thermoelectric coolers, avoiding material waste, and the energy-intense and inefficient steps, such as high-temperature synthesis, pressure-assisted sintering, and cutting and dicing ingots, commonly used in conventional manufacturing processes.","lang":"eng"}],"user_id":"317138e5-6ab7-11ef-aa6d-ffef3953e345","date_updated":"2026-10-16T10:06:46Z","quality_controlled":"1","supplementarymaterial":"no","date_created":"2025-01-29T14:41:32Z","article_processing_charge":"No","month":"11","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"department":[{"_id":"MaIb"}],"publication_status":"published","article_number":"222","doi":"10.29363/nanoge.matsusfall.2024.222","type":"conference","title":"High-performance thermoelectric cooler fabricated vith extrusion-based 3D printing materials","author":[{"full_name":"Ibáñez, Maria","last_name":"Ibáñez","id":"43C61214-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Maria","orcid":"0000-0001-5013-2843"},{"last_name":"Xu","id":"12ab8624-4c8a-11ec-9e11-e1ac2438f22f","full_name":"Xu, Shengduo","first_name":"Shengduo"},{"id":"03a7e858-01b1-11ec-8b71-99ae6c4a05bc","last_name":"Horta","full_name":"Horta, Sharona","first_name":"Sharona"},{"full_name":"Lawal, Abayomi Q","id":"5bdaf946-5355-11ee-ae5a-8061700bd605","last_name":"Lawal","first_name":"Abayomi Q"}],"publication":"Proceedings of the Materials for Sustainable Development Conference","corr_author":"1","conference":{"start_date":"2024-11-12","name":"MATSUS: Materials for Sustainable Development Conference","end_date":"2024-11-15","location":"Lausanne, Switzerland"}}]
