SpectraQuery: A Hybrid Retrieval-Augmented Conversational Assistant for Battery Science
Sreya Vangara, Jagjit Nanda, Yan-Kai Tzeng +1
Scientific reasoning increasingly requires linking structured experimental data with the unstructured literature that explains it, yet most large language model (LLM) assistants ca…
Single-Ion Sensing in Liquid Using Fluorescent h-BN Point Defects
Yecun Wu, Kun Xu, Hori Pada Sarker +7
Understanding the chemical state of individual ions in solutions is crucial for advancing knowledge of complex systems. However, sensing systems at the single-ion level in liquid e…
Defect Engineered Hexagonal-Boron Nitride Enables Ionic Conduction for Lithium Metal Batteries
Yecun Wu, Yan-Kai Tzeng, Hao Chen +7
The practical implementation of lithium-metal anodes has been hindered by uncontrollable dendrite formation and interfacial instability. This study presents a defect-engineering ap…
Electrochemical CO2 capture with pH-independent redox chemistry
Sang Cheol Kim, Marco Gigantino, John Holoubek +8
Capture of anthropogenic CO2 is critical for mitigating climate change, and reducing the energy cost is essential for wide-scale deployment. Solubility of inorganic carbon in aqueo…
