Article Abstract
X-ray detectors are broadly utilized in medical imaging and product inspection. Halide perovskites recently demonstrate excellent performance for direct X-ray detection. However, ionic migration causes large noise and baseline drift, limiting the detection and imaging performance. Here we largely eliminate the ionic migration in cesium silver bismuth bromide (CsAgBiBr) polycrystalline wafers by introducing bismuth oxybromide (BiOBr) as heteroepitaxial passivation layers. Good lattice match between BiOBr and CsAgBiBr enables complete defect passivation and suppressed ionic migration. The detector hence achieves outstanding balanced performance with a signal drifting one order of magnitude lower than all previous studies, low noise (1/f noise free), a high sensitivity of 250 µC Gy cm, and a spatial resolution of 4.9 lp mm. The wafer area could be easily scaled up by the isostatic-pressing method, together with the heteroepitaxial passivation, strengthens the competitiveness of CsAgBiBr-based X-ray detectors as next-generation X-ray imaging flat panels.

Li-metal batteries promise ultrahigh energy density, but their application is limited by Li-dendrite growth. Theoretically, fluorine-containing anions such as bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (FSI) in electrolytes can be reduced to form LiF-rich solid-electrolyte interphases (SEIs) with high Young's modulus and ionic conductivity that can suppress dendrites. However, the anions migrate toward the cathode during the charging process, accompanied by a decrease in the concentration of interfacial anions near the anode surface.

High entropy electrolytes show great potential in the design of next generation batteries. Demonstrating how salt components of high entropy electrolytes influence the charge storage performance of batteries is essential in the tuning and design of such advanced electrolytes. This study investigates the transport and interfacial properties for lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF) in ethylene carbonate and dimethyl carbonate (EC/DMC) solvent with commonly used additives for high entropy electrolytes (LiTFSI, LiDFOB, and LiNO).

Microbial desalination cells (MDCs) have traditionally employed simplified NaCl solutions as feedwater for synchronous desalination and bioenergy recovery. Nevertheless, the specific mechanisms by which MDCs remove complex multi-ions from saline wastewater remain obscure. This study thoroughly investigated ion migration, bioelectrochemical dynamics, and microbial ecological responses across three distinct configurations: monovalent ions - PMDC, divalent cations - CMDC and anions - AMDC.

The present research reports the synthesis of poly-[ethylene oxide]-based composite films (500 μm) containing metal nanoparticles (NPs) [Ag ( ∼ 6 nm), Cu ( ∼ 25 nm), and Fe ( ∼ 35 nm)] as the mobile phase. The novelty of the study is in the corroboration of a plausible mechanism for the generation of metal NPs through green synthesis using herbal extracts of (Tea) and (Neem). Density functional theory (DFT) is used to optimize the phytoreductants present in both biosources, wherein the reducing and/or stabilizing functional entities are primarily hydroxyl groups (-OH).

Polyesters, with their tunable chemical structures and environmental sustainability, have drawn growing attention as solid polymer electrolytes for next-generation solid-state lithium metal batteries (SSLMBs). Through a comprehensive experimental and theoretical study involving the systematic variation of carbon chain lengths in the flexible (diol) and coordinating (diacid) segments, along with selective fluorination at distinct positions along the polymer backbone, 18 types of polyester are fabricated and demonstrate that fluorination at the coordinating segment significantly enhances ionic conductivity by suppressing crystallinity. In contrast, fluorination at the flexible segment reduces ionic migration barriers by providing more homogeneous coordinating sites, thereby improving the lithium-ion transference number, despite increasing chain rigidity and a reduction in overall ionic conductivity.
