Thermal Polymorphism in CsCB11H12

March 1, 2023
Author(s)
Radovan Cerny, Matteo Brighi, Hui Wu, Wei Zhou, Mirjana Dimitrievska, Fabrizio Murgia, Valerio Gulino, Petra de Jongh, Benjamin Trump, Terrence J. Udovic
Thermal polymorphism in the alkali-metal salts incorporating the icosohedral monocarba-hydridoborate anion, CB11H12, results in intriguing dynamical properties leading to superionic conductivity for the lightest alkali-metal analogues, LiCB11H12 and

Nanoscale Bending Dynamics in Mixed-Chain Lipid Membranes

Elizabeth Kelley, Moritz Frewein, Orsolya Czakkel, Michihiro Nagao
Lipids that have two tails of different lengths are found throughout biomembranes in nature, yet the effects of this asymmetry on the membrane properties, are not well understood, especially when it comes to the membrane dynamics. Here we study the

Characterizing the ZrBe 2 H x Phase Diagram via Neutron Scattering Methods

Hui Wu, Wei Zhou, Terrence J. Udovic, Jr. Bowman, Bjorn C. Hauback
It is well-known that ZrBe 2H 1.5 exists as a single-phase hydride with hexagonal P6/mmm symmetry that undergoes some type of hydrogen sublattice ordering below 200 K (235-250 K for ZrBe 2D 1.5&). Both neutron powder diffraction and neutron vibrational

Simultaneous neutron and X-ray tomography for ex-situ 3D visualization of graphite anode degradation from extremely fast-charged lithium-ion batteries

Maha Yusuf, Jacob LaManna, Partha Paul, David Agyeman-Budu, Chuntian Cao, Alison Dunlop, Andrew Jansen, Bryant Polzin, Stephen Trask, Tanvir Tanim, Eric Dufek, Vivek Thampy, Hans-Georg Steinruck, Michael Toney, Johanna Weker
Extreme fast charging (XFC) of commercial lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in ≤10-15 minutes will significantly advance the deployment of electric vehicles globally. However, XFC leads to considerable capacity fade, mainly due to graphite anode degradation

Multivariate Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks with an Inverting Trend in Flexibility

November 10, 2022
Author(s)
Arijit Halder, Ryan Klein, C. McGuirk, Rachel Lively
Through systematic linker substitution in a flexible zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) with step-shaped adsorption–desorption, structural intermediates between the known open and closed phases were isolated. Reflecting this, modulative sorption

Vitamin E does not Disturb Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Lipid Domains

November 1, 2022
Author(s)
Mitchell DiPasquale, Michael H. Nguyen, Stuart R. Castillo, Isabelle J. Dib, Elizabeth Kelley, Drew Marquardt
The antioxidant function of vitamin E in biomembranes remains a prominent topic of discussion. As its limitations as an antioxidant persist and novel functions are discovered, our understanding of the role of vitamin E becomes increasingly enigmatic. As a
