    查看更多>>摘要:Battery management systems(BMSs)play a vital role in ensuring efficient and reliable operations of lithium-ion batteries.The main function of the BMSs is to estimate battery states and diagnose battery health using battery open-circuit voltage(OCV).However,acquiring the complete OCV data online can be a challenging endeavor due to the time-consuming measurement process or the need for specific oper-ating conditions required by OCV estimation models.In addressing these concerns,this study introduces a deep neural network-combined framework for accurate and robust OCV estimation,utilizing partial daily charging data.We incorporate a generative deep learning model to extract aging-related features from data and generate high-fidelity OCV curves.Correlation analysis is employed to identify the optimal partial charging data,optimizing the OCV estimation precision while preserving exceptional flexibility.The validation results,using data from nickel-cobalt-magnesium(NCM)batteries,illustrate the accurate estimation of the complete OCV-capacity curve,with an average root mean square errors(RMSE)of less than 3 mAh.Achieving this level of precision for OCV estimation requires only around 50 s collection of partial charging data.Further validations on diverse battery types operating under various conditions confirm the effectiveness of our proposed method.Additional cases of precise health diagnosis based on OCV highlight the significance of conducting online OCV estimation.Our method provides a flexible approach to achieve complete OCV estimation and holds promise for generalization to other tasks in BMSs.

    查看更多>>摘要:Tuning the coordination atoms of central metal is an effective means to improve the electrocatalytic activity of atomic catalysts.Herein,iridium(Ir)is proposed to be asymmetrically anchored by sp-N and pyridinic N of hydrogen-substituted graphdiyne(HsGDY),and coordinated with OH as an Ir atomic catalyst(Ir1-N-HsGDY).The electron structures,especially the d-band center of Ir atom,are optimized by these specific coordination atoms.Thus,the as-synthesized Ir1-N-HsGDY exhibits excellent electrocat-alytic performances for oxygen reduction and hydrogen evolution reactions in both acidic and alkaline media.Benefiting from the unique structure of HsGDY,IrN2(OH)3 has been developed and demonstrated to act as the active site in these electrochemical reactions.All those indicate the fresh role of the sp-N in graphdiyne in producing a new anchor way and contributing to promote the electrocatalytic activity,showing a new strategy to design novel electrochemical catalysts.

    查看更多>>摘要:The limited energy density of lithium-ion capacitors poses a significant obstacle to their widespread application,primarily stemming from the inability of the electrodes to simultaneously fulfill both high energy density and rapid charging requirements.Experimental data demonstrate that a directional par-ticle configuration can enhance charging speed while maintaining high-capacity density,but it is rarely discussed.Here,we have developed a particle-level electrochemical model capable of reconstructing an electrode with a directional particle configuration.By employing this method,an investigation was con-ducted to explore how the spatial morphology characteristics of particle configuration impact the energy storage characteristics of electrodes.Results demonstrate that rational particle configuration can effec-tively enhance the transport of lithium ions and create additional space for lithium-ion storage.With the same particle size distribution,the best electrode can increase the discharge capacity by up to 132.4%and increase the charging SOC by 11.3%compared to the ordinary electrode under the condition of 6 C.These findings provide a further understanding of the energy storage mechanism inside the ani-sotropic particle distribution electrode,which is important for developing high-performance lithium-ion capacitors.

    查看更多>>摘要:Sb2Se3 with unique one-dimensional(1D)crystal structure exhibits exceptional deformation tolerance,demonstrating great application potential in flexible devices.However,the power conversion efficiency(PCE)of flexible Sb2Se3 photovoltaic devices is temporarily limited by the complicated intrinsic defects and the undesirable contact interfaces.Herein,a high-quality Sb2Se3 absorber layer with large crystal grains and benign[hk1]growth orientation can be first prepared on a Mo foil substrate.Then NaF inter-mediate layer is introduced between Mo and Sb2Se3,which can further optimize the growth of Sb2Se3 thin film.Moreover,positive Na ion diffusion enables it to dramatically lower barrier height at the back contact interface and passivate harmful defects at both bulk and heterojunction.As a result,the cham-pion substrate structured Mo-foil/Mo/NaF/Sb2Se3/CdS/ITO/Ag flexible thin-film solar cell delivers an obviously higher efficiency of 8.03%and a record open-circuit voltage(Voc)of 0.492 V.This flexible Sb2Se3 device also exhibits excellent stability and flexibility to stand large bending radius and multiple bending times,as well as superior weak light photo-response with derived efficiency of 12.60%.This work presents an effective strategy to enhance the flexible Sb2Se3 device performance and expand its potential photovoltaic applications.

    查看更多>>摘要:Passive daytime radiative cooling(PDRC)is environment-friendly without energy input by enhancing the coating's solar reflectance(Rsolar)and thermal emittance(eLwIR)in the atmosphere's long-wave infrared transmission window.However,high Rsolar is usually achieved by increasing the coating's thickness,which not only increases materials'cost but also impairs heat transfer.Additionally,the desired high Rsolar is vulnerable to dust pollution in the outdoors.In this work,a thin paint was designed by mixing hBN plates,PFOTS,and IPA.Rsolar=0.963 andeLwIR=0.927 was achieved at a thickness of 150 μm due to the high backscattering ability of scatters.A high through-plane thermal conductivity(~1.82 W m-1 K-1)also can be obtained.In addition,the porous structure coupled with the binder PFOTS resulted in a contact angle of 154°,demonstrating excellent durability under dust contamination.Outdoor experiments showed that the thin paint can obtain a 2.3 ℃ lower temperature for sub-ambient cooling than the reference PDRC coating in the daytime.Furtherly,the above-ambient heat dissipation performance can be enhanced by spraying the thin paint on a 3D heat sink,which was 15.7 ℃ lower than the reference 1D structure,demonstrating excellent performance for durable and scalable PDRC applications.

    查看更多>>摘要:Electro-reduction of carbon dioxide(ERCO2)is considered an effective method to alleviate the green-house effect and produce value-added chemicals.Achieving the dominant selectivity of Zn-based cata-lysts for formate remains a challenge.In this article,the Znln-E12 catalyst is successfully prepared by solvent assisted ligand exchange(SALE)method to convert organic ligands,achieving a Faradaic effi-ciency of 72.28%for formate at-1.26 V vs.RHE(VRHE),which is 1.42 times higher than the original cat-alyst.Evidence shows that the successful conversion of organic ligands can transform the catalyst from the original large size polyhedron to cross-linked network of particles with a diameter of about 30 nm.The increased specific surface area can expose more active sites and facilitate the electrocatalytic conver-sion of CO2 to formate.This work is expected to provide inspiration for the regulation of formate selec-tivity and catalyst size in Zn-based catalysts.

    查看更多>>摘要:In recent times,future energy storage systems demand a multitude of functionalities beyond their tradi-tional energy storage capabilities.In line with this technological shift,there is active research and devel-opment of electrochromic-energy storage systems designed to visualize electrochemical charging and discharging processes.The conventional electrochromic-energy storage devices primarily integrated supercapacitors,known for their high power density,to enable rapid color contrast.However,the low energy density of supercapacitors restricts overall energy storage capacity,acting as a significant barrier to expanding the application range of such systems.In this review,we introduce electrochromic zinc(Zn)-ion battery systems,which effectively overcome the limitation of low energy density,and provide illustrative examples of their applicability across diverse fields.Although many recent research works are present for electrochromic Zn-ion batteries,little review has so far taken place.Our objective is to dis-cuss on the current progress and future directions for electrochromic Zn-ion batteries,which are appli-cable for wearable electronics applications and energy storage systems.This review provides an initial milestone for future researchers in electrochromic energy storage and zinc-ion batteries,which will lead to a stream of future works related to them.
