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…
Electron-magnon coupling at the interface of a "twin-twisted" antiferromagnet
Yue Sun, Fanhao Meng, Sijia Ke +9
We identify a "twin-twist" angle in orthorhombic two-dimensional magnets that maximizes interlayer orbital overlap and enables strong interfacial coupling. Focusing on the van der…
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…
