Yong Cheng et al.

Summary: High-voltage high-nickel lithium layered oxide cathodes have great application prospects in rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to their high output capacity.

This study introduces titanium (Ti) doping into the cathode material to improve stability and address these issues. The Ti-doped material shows higher capacity retention and better rate capacity compared to the pristine material. This research provides valuable insights for the application of high-voltage high-nickel cathodes in LIBs.

Metastable 1T′-phase group VIB transition metal dichalcogenide crystals

Zhuangchai Lai et al.

Summary: A general synthetic method for large-scale preparation of high-purity metastable 1T'-phase transition metal dichalcogenide crystals, including WS2, WSe2, MoS2, MoSe2, WS2xSe2(1-x) and MoS2xSe2(1-x), has been reported. The crystal structures of 1T'-WS2, -WSe2, -MoS2 and -MoSe2 were solved using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The as-prepared 1T'-WS2 showed thickness-dependent intrinsic superconductivity, demonstrating critical transition temperatures of 8.6 K for a thickness of 90.1 nm and 5.7 K for a single layer, attributed to its high intrinsic carrier concentration and semi-metallic nature. This synthesis method will facilitate a more systematic investigation of the intrinsic properties of metastable TMDs.
