Article Abstract

Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) as a promising high-voltage cathode material for aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) are usually subjected to an ephemeral lifespan and low Coulombic efficiency due to the irreversible phase change and high Zn insertion potential. Besides, Zn dendrites, H evolution reaction, and corrosion derived from a Zn anode interface remain huge challenges. Given this, a highly stable zinc hexacyanoferrate (KZnHCF) cathode together with a mixed concentrated electrolyte is prepared to realize a high-voltage and long-life aqueous ZIB, in which the mixed concentrated electrolyte consisting of 30 m KFSI + 1 m Zn(CFSO) possesses a unique Zn solvation sheath (Zn(CFSO)(FSI)(HO)) that can not only stabilize the cathode interface and improve the Coulombic efficiency but also fundamentally solve the Zn anode interface issues. As a result, the aqueous KZnHCF/Zn battery achieves an ultralong life over 3000 cycles without any capacity decay even under a high discharge voltage of 1.78 V (vs Zn/Zn). Such extraordinary performance represents significant progress in aqueous PBA-based ZIBs. This work shares guidance to improve the performance of aqueous ZIBs through optimizing the electrolyte in tuning the stable operation of the cathode and the zinc anode.

Albumin and γ-globulin concentrations in an electrolyte solution have been quantified by a multivariate-regressive Gaussian admittance relaxation times distribution (mgARTD). The mgARTD is built based on the training data consisting of the impedance spectroscopy system measurement result of protein mixture solutions with a known concentration of albumin, γ-globulin, and sodium electrolyte to perform concentration quantification on a prospective protein mixture solution with an unknown concentration. The mgARTD consists of three steps: (1) Prediction step of the peak matrix by Gaussian ARTD (gARTD) with the Gaussian process and peak detection algorithm, (2) Training step of the approximated coefficient matrix ̃ based on the multivariate-regressive formula = + (: multivariate-regression coefficient matrix, : error matrix, and : known concentration matrix of the training data set), and (3) Quantification step of the approximated concentration ̃ based on the Gauss-Newton algorithm from the predicted of the quantification data and the approximated ̃.

Background: The development of specific fluorescent probes for cancer cell discrimination holds significant promise for advancing cancer diagnostics. Conventionally, these probes operate by translating differences in biomarkers or microenvironmental factors into variations in whole-cell fluorescence intensity. However, this dominant, intensity-based strategy is highly susceptible to extraneous fluctuations arising from probe concentration, illumination instability and complex intracellular environment.
