Abstract
Further applications of electric vehicles (EVs) and energy storage stations are limited because of the thermal sensitivity, volatility, and poor durability of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), especially given the urgent requirements for all-climate utilization and fast charging. This study comprehensively reviews the thermal characteristics and management of LIBs in an all-temperature area based on the performance, mechanism, and thermal management strategy levels. At the performance level, the external features of the batteries were analyzed and compared in cold and hot environments. At the mechanism level, the heat generation principles and thermal features of LIBs under different temperature conditions were summarized from the perspectives of thermal and electrothermal mechanisms. At the strategy level, to maintain the temperature/thermal consistency and prevent poor subzero temperature performance and local/global overheating, conventional and novel battery thermal management systems (BTMSs) are discussed from the perspective of temperature control, thermal consistency, and power cost. Moreover, future countermeasures to enhance the performance of all-climate areas at the material, cell, and system levels are discussed. This study provides insights and methodologies to guarantee the performance and safety of LIBs used in EVs and energy storage stations.

Abstract
Transformation of conventional 2D platforms into unusual 3D configurations provides exciting opportunities for sensors, electronics, optical devices, and biological systems. Engineering material properties or controlling and modulating stresses in thin films to pop-up 3D structures out of standard planar surfaces has been a highly active research topic over the last decade. Implementation of 3D micro and nanoarchitectures enables unprecedented functionalities including multiplexed, monolithic mechanical sensors, vertical integration of electronics components, and recording of neuron activities in 3D organoids. This paper provides an overview on stress engineering approaches to developing 3D functional microsystems. The paper systematically presents the origin of stresses generated in thin films and methods to transform a 2D design into an out-of-plane configuration. Different types of 3D micro and nanostructures, along with their applications in several areas are discussed. The paper concludes with current technical challenges and potential approaches and applications of this fast-growing research direction.

Abstract
Multilayer vanadium dioxide (VO2) actuators are a widespread concern as these micro/nano-actuators present a fast and efficient dynamic response when VO2 occurs in metal-insulator transition (MIT) at 68 °C. By tuning the O2 flow rate during oxide deposition and rolled-up nanotechnology, a microactuator based on a single-layered vanadium oxide nanomembrane with vertical component gradient is fabricated. Upward bending of the nanomembrane is driven by the release of the compressive strain gradient which is revealed through the difference in Raman shift of the vibration mode. Combining strain engineering, the initial curvature of microactuators is tuned in a wide range by the thickness of the nanomembranes. The actuation behavior from low curvature to high final curvature across the MIT is observed which depends on the nanomembrane thickness. Initial compressive strain distribution of the rolled-up nanomembrane decreases the MIT temperature simultaneously. Thus, taking advantage of the tunable MIT and reversible shape transformation, micro/nano-actuators with tunable triggering temperature, controllable initial curvature and large-displacement actuation are fabricated for curvature engineering in micromechanical systems.

Abstract
Due to their advantages compared with planar structures, rolled-up tubes have been applied in many fields, such as field-effect transistors, compact capacitors, inductors, and integrative sensors. On the other hand, because of its perfect insulating nature, ultrahigh mechanical strength and atomic thickness property, 2D hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is a very suitable material for rolled-up memory applications. In this work, a tubular 3D resistive random access memory (RRAM) device based on rolled-up h-BN tube is realized, which is achieved by self-rolled-up technology. The tubular RRAM device exhibits bipolar resistive switching behavior, nonvolatile data storage ability, and satisfactorily low programming current compared with other 2D material-based RRAM devices. Moreover, by releasing from the substrate, the footprint area of the tubular device is reduced by six times. This tubular RRAM device has great potential for increasing the data storage density, lowering the power consumption, and may be applied in the fields of rolled-up systems and sensing-storage integration.

Abstract
An approach to assemble hierarchically ordered 3D arrangements of curved graphenic nanofragments for energy storage devices is described. Assembling them into well-defined interconnected macroporous networks, followed by removal of the template, results in spherical macroporous, mesoporous, and microporous carbon microball (3MCM) architectures with controllable features spanning nanometer to micrometer length scales. These structures are ideal porous electrodes and can serve as lithium-ion battery (LIB) anodes as well as capacitive deionization (CDI) devices. The LIBs exhibit high reversible capacity (up to 1335 mAh g-1 ), with great rate capability (248 mAh g-1 at 20 C) and a long cycle life (60 cycles). For CDI, the curved graphenic networks have superior electrosorption capacity (i.e., 5.17 mg g-1 in 0.5 × 10-3 m NaCl) over conventional carbon materials. The performance of these materials is attributed to the hierarchical structure of the graphenic electrode, which enables faster ion diffusion and low transport resistance.

Abstract
Two additional structural forms, free-standing nanomembranes and microtubes, are reported and added to the vanadium dioxide (VO2) material family. Free-standing VO2 nanomembranes were fabricated by precisely thinning as-grown VO2 thin films and etching away the sacrificial layer underneath. VO2 microtubes with a range of controllable diameters were rolled-up from the VO2 nanomembranes. When a VO2 nanomembrane is rolled-up into a microtubular structure, a significant compressive strain is generated and accommodated therein, which decreases the phase transition temperature of the VO2 material. The magnitude of the compressive strain is determined by the curvature of the VO2 microtube, which can be rationally and accurately designed by controlling the tube diameter during the rolling-up fabrication process. The VO2 microtube rolling-up process presents a novel way to controllably tune the phase transition temperature of VO2 materials over a wide range toward practical applications. Furthermore, the rolling-up process is reversible. A VO2 microtube can be transformed back into a nanomembrane by introducing an external strain. Because of its tunable phase transition temperature and reversible shape transformation, the VO2 nanomembrane-microtube structure is promising for device applications. As an example application, a tubular microactuator device with low driving energy but large displacement is demonstrated at various triggering temperatures.

Abstract
Nanomembrane rolling offers advanced three-dimensional (3D) mesostructures in electronics, optics, and biomedical applications. We demonstrate a high-density and on-chip array of rolled-up nanomembrane actuators with stimuli-responsive function based on the volume expansion of palladium in hydrogen milieu. The uniform stimuli-responsive behavior of high-density nanomembrane rolls leads to huge macroscopic visual detection with more than 50% transmittance change under optimization of micropattern design. The reversible shape changing between rolled and flat (unrolled) statuses can be well explained on the basis of the elastic mechanical model. The strain change in the palladium layer during hydrogen absorption and desorption produces a marked change in the diameter of nanomembrane rolls. We found that a functional palladium layer established an external compressive strain after hydrogen stimuli and thus also reduced the rolls' diameters. The large area of the nanomembrane roll array performs excellent nonelectrical hydrogen detection, with response and recovery speeds within seconds. Our work suggests a new strategy to integrate high-density 3D mesoscale architectures into functional devices and systems.

Abstract
Fabrication of carbon films on semiconductor micro/nanocrystals improves their photocatalytic performance. However, the carbon coating can often lead to reduction in their activity because of the blocking of the reaction sites. Herein, we report the synthesis of folded-up thin carbon nanosheets on Cu2O cubes by surface etching, which increase the photocatalytic activity of Au/Cu2O 2 fold due to the enhancement in light absorption and charge separation.

Abstract
Lack of high-performance cathode materials has become the major barriers to lithium-ion battery applications in advanced communication equipment and electric vehicles. In this paper, we report a versatile interfacial reaction strategy, which is based on the idea of space confinement, for the synthesis of ultradispersed LiV3O8 nanoparticles (~10 nm) on graphene (denoted as LVO NPs-GNs) with an unprecedented degree of control on the separation and manipulation of the nucleation, growth, anchoring, and crystallization of nanoparticles in a water-in-oil emulsion system over free growth in solution. The prepared LVO NPs-GNs composites displayed high performance as an cathode material for lithium-ion battery, including high reversible lithium storage capacity (237 mA h g(-1) after 200 cycles), high Coulombic efficiency (about 98%), excellent cycling stability and high rate capability (as high as 176 mA h g(-1) at 0.9 A g(-1), 128 mA h g(-1) at 1.5 A g(-1), 91 mA h g(-1) at 3 A g(-1) and 59 mA h g(-1) at 6 A g(-1), respectively). Very significantly, the preparation method employed can be easily adapted and may opens the door to complex hybrid materials design and engineering with graphene for advanced energy storage.

Abstract
Trilayered Pd/MnO x /Pd nanomembranes are fabricated as the cathode catalysts for Li-O2 batteries. The combination of Pd and MnO x facilitates the transport of electrons, lithium ions, and oxygen-containing intermediates, thus effectively decomposing the discharge product Li2O2 and significantly lowering the charge overpotential and enhancing the power efficiency. This is promising for future environmentally friendly applications.

Abstract
Transition metal oxides have attracted great interest as alternative anode materials for rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. Among them, ruthenium dioxide is considered to be a prototype material that reacts with the Li ions in the conversion type. In situ transmission electron microscopy reveals a two-step process during the initial lithiation of the RuO2 nanowire anode at atomic resolution. The first step is characterized by the formation of the intermediate phase LixRuO2 due to the Li-ion intercalation. The following step is manifested by the solid-state amorphization reaction driven by advancing the reaction front. The crystalline/amorphous interface is consisted of {011} atomic terraces, revealing the orientation-dependent mobility. In the crystalline matrix, lattice disturbance and dislocation are identified to be two major stress-induced distortions. The latter can be effective diffusion channels, facilitating transportation of the Li ions inside the bulk RuO2 crystal and further resulting in non-uniform Li-ion distribution. It is expected that the local enrichment of the Li ions may account for the homogeneous nucleation of dislocations in the bulk RuO2 crystal and the special island-like structures. These results elucidate the structural evolution and the phase transformation during electrochemical cycling, which sheds light on engineering RuO2 anode materials.

Abstract
Amorphous SnO2 nanomembranes as anodes for lithium ion batteries demonstrate a long cycling life of 1000 cycles at 1600 mA g(-1) with a high reversible capacity of 854 mA h g(-1) and high rate capability up to 40 A g(-1). The superior performance is because of the structural features of the amorphous SnO2 nanomembranes. The nanoscale thickness provides considerably reduced diffusion paths for Li(+). The amorphous structure can accommodate the strain of lithiation/delithiation, especially during the initial lithiation. More importantly, the mechanical feature of deformation can buffer the strain of repeated lithiation/delithiation, thus putting off pulverization. In addition, the two-dimensional transport pathways in between nanomembranes make the pseudo-capacitance more prominent. The encouraging results demonstrate the significant potential of nanomembranes for high power batteries.

Abstract
A lab-on-chip device is demonstrated for probing the electrochemical kinetics, electrical properties, and structure integrity of a single Si rolled-up tube as the anode in lithium-ion batteries. Cyclic voltammetry of the tube exhibits better-resolved peaks than of the planar film due to the enhanced diffusion. The tube is wrinkled after cycling. The tube could be used as a promising ultra-microelectrode for other voltammetry research.

Abstract
In this paper, we demonstrate the design and synthesis of novel mesoporous Si@C microspheres as anode materials for high-performance lithium-ion batteries. SiO2 nanoparticles modified with hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide are enveloped within resorcinol-formaldehyde polymer microspheres which form in the ethanol-water-ammonia system. Mesoporous voids between Si nanoparticles and the carbon framework are generated after carbonization at 800 °C and magnesiothermic reduction at 650 °C. The resultant Si@C microspheres show regular spherical shapes with a mean diameter of about 500 nm, a mesopore size of 3.2 nm and specific surface areas of 401-424 m(2) g(-1). Mesoporosity of Si@C microspheres effectively buffers the volume expansion/shrinkage of Si nanoparticles during Li ion insertion/extraction, which endows mesoporous Si@C microspheres with excellent electrochemical performance and cycle stability when they are used as lithium-ion battery anode materials. A typical sample of mesoporous Si@C microspheres presents a specific capacity of 1637 and 1375 mA h g(-1) at first discharge and charge under a current density of 50 mA g(-1). After 100 cycles, the charge capacity remains 1053 mA h g(-1) with a coulombic efficiency of 99%, showing good cycle stability of the anode. This finding highlights the potential application of mesoporous Si@C microspheres in lithium-ion battery anode materials.

Abstract
A unique core-shell structure of silicon@titania (Si@TiO2) composite with silicon nanoparticles encapsulated in TiO2 hollow spheres is synthesized by a simple hydrolysis method combined with magnesiothermic reduction method. It is found that the TiO2 shell is effective for improving the electrical conductivity and structural stability. More importantly, the well-designed nanostructure with enough empty space would accommodate the volume change of silicon during the cycling. Reversible capacities of 1911.1 and 795 mAh g(-1) can be obtained at 0.05 C and a high current rate of 1 C, respectively. After 100 cycles at 0.1 C, the composite electrode still maintains a high capacity of 804 mAh g(-1). This excellent cycling stability and high-rate capability can be ascribed to the unique core-shell nanostructure and the synergistic effect between Si and TiO2.

Abstract
We report a simple and efficient approach for fabrication of novel graphene-polysulfide (GPS) anode materials, which consists of conducting graphene network and homogeneously distributed polysulfide in between and chemically bonded with graphene sheets. Such unique architecture not only possesses fast electron transport channels, shortens the Li-ion diffusion length but also provides very efficient Li-ion reservoirs. As a consequence, the GPS materials exhibit an ultrahigh reversible capacity, excellent rate capability and superior long-term cycling performance in terms of 1600, 550, 380 mAh g−1 after 500, 1300, 1900 cycles with a rate of 1, 5 and 10 A g−1 respectively. This novel and simple strategy is believed to work broadly for other carbon-based materials. Additionally, the competitive cost and low environment impact may promise such materials and technique a promising future for the development of high-performance energy storage devices for diverse applications.

Abstract
We present ultracompact three-dimensional tubular structures integrating Au-based electrodes as impedimetric microsensors for the in-flow determination of mono- and divalent ionic species and HeLa cells. The microsensors show an improved performance of 2 orders of magnitude (limit of detection = 0.1 nM for KCl) compared to conventional planar conductivity detection systems integrated in microfluidic platforms and the capability to detect single HeLa cells in flowing phosphate buffered saline. These highly integrated conductivity tubular sensors thus open new possibilities for lab-in-a-tube devices for bioapplications such as biosensing and bioelectronics.

Abstract
We have introduced a facile strategy to fabricate sandwich-stacked SnO2/Cu hybrid nanosheets as multichannel anodes for lithium-ion batteries applying rolled-up nanotechnology with the use of carbon black as intersheet spacer. By employing a direct self-rolling and compressing approach, a much higher effective volume efficiency is achieved as compared to rolled-up hollow tubes. Benefiting from the nanogaps formed between each neighboring sheet, electron transport and ion diffusion are facilitated and SnO2/Cu nanosheet overlapping is prevented. As a result, the sandwich-stacked SnO2/Cu hybrid nanosheets exhibit a high reversible capacity of 764 mAh g(-1) at 100 mA g(-1) and a stable cycling performance of ~75% capacity retention at 200 mA g(-1) after 150 cycles, as well as a superior rate capability of ~470 mAh g(-1) at 1 A g(-1). This synthesis approach presents a promising route to design multichannel anodes for high performance Li-ion batteries.

Abstract
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) represent the state-of-the-art technology in rechargeable energy-storage devices and they currently occupy the prime position in the marketplace for powering an increasingly diverse range of applications. However, the fast development of these applications has led to increasing demands being placed on advanced LIBs in terms of higher energy/power densities and longer life cycles. For LIBs to meet these requirements, researchers have focused on active electrode materials, owing to their crucial roles in the electrochemical performance of batteries. For anode materials, compounds based on Group IVA (Si, Ge, and Sn) elements represent one of the directions in the development of high-capacity anodes. Although these compounds have many significant advantages when used as anode materials for LIBs, there are still some critical problems to be solved before they can meet the high requirements for practical applications. In this Focus Review, we summarize a series of rational designs for Group IVA-based anode materials, in terms of their chemical compositions and structures, that could address these problems, that is, huge volume variations during cycling, unstable surfaces/interfaces, and invalidation of transport pathways for electrons upon cycling. These designs should at least include one of the following structural benefits: 1) Contain a sufficient number of voids to accommodate the volume variations during cycling; 2) adopt a "plum-pudding"-like structure to limit the volume variations during cycling; 3) facilitate an efficient and permanent transport pathway for electrons and lithium ions; or 4) show stable surfaces/interfaces to stabilize the in situ formed SEI layers.

Abstract
Hybrid anode materials for Li-ion batteries are fabricated by binding SnO2 nanocrystals (NCs) in nitrogen-doped reduced graphene oxide (N-RGO) sheets by means of an in situ hydrazine monohydrate vapor reduction method. The SnO2NCs in the obtained SnO2NC@N-RGO hybrid material exhibit exceptionally high specific capacity and high rate capability. Bonds formed between graphene and SnO2 nanocrystals limit the aggregation of in situ formed Sn nanoparticles, leading to a stable hybrid anode material with long cycle life.

Abstract
Compact rolled-up Co-Cu nanomembranes of high quality with different numbers of windings are realized by strain engineering. A profound analysis of magnetoresistance (MR) is performed for tubes with a single winding and a varied number of Co-Cu bilayers in the stack. Rolled-up nanomembranes with up to 12 Co-Cu bilayers are successfully fabricated by tailoring the strain state of the Cr bottom layer. By carrying out an angular dependent study, we ruled out the contribution from anisotropic MR and confirm that rolled-up Co-Cu multilayers exhibit giant magnetoresistance (GMR). No significant difference of MR is found for a single wound tube compared with planar devices. In contrast, MR in tubes with multiple windings is increased at low deposition rates of the Cr bottom layer, whereas the effect is not observable at higher rates, suggesting that interface roughness plays an important role in determining the GMR effect of the rolled-up nanomembranes. Furthermore, besides a linear increase of the MR with the number of windings, the self-rolling of nanomembranes substantially reduces the device footprint area.

Abstract
Metal oxide nanostructures are promising electrode materials for lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors because of their high specific capacity/capacitance, typically 2-3 times higher than that of the carbon/graphite-based materials. However, their cycling stability and rate performance still can not meet the requirements of practical applications. It is therefore urgent to improve their overall device performance, which depends on not only the development of advanced electrode materials but also in a large part "how to design superior electrode architectures". In the article, we will review recent advances in strategies for advanced metal oxide-based hybrid nanostructure design, with the focus on the binder-free film/array electrodes. These binder-free electrodes, with the integration of unique merits of each component, can provide larger electrochemically active surface area, faster electron transport and superior ion diffusion, thus leading to substantially improved cycling and rate performance. Several recently emerged concepts of using ordered nanostructure arrays, synergetic core-shell structures, nanostructured current collectors, and flexible paper/textile electrodes will be highlighted, pointing out advantages and challenges where appropriate. Some future electrode design trends and directions are also discussed.

The first printable magnetic sensor relying on the giant magnetoresistance effect (GMR) is demonstrated. It is prepared in the form of magneto-sensitive inks adherent to any kind of arbitrarily shaped surface. The fabricated sensor exhibits a room-temperature GMR of up to 8% showing great potential for contactless switching in hybrid electronic circuits (discrete semiconductor and printable elements) applied to the surface by regular painting.

Abstract
Conventional solid films on certain substrates play a crucial role in various applications, for example in flat panel displays, silicon technology, and protective coatings. Recently, tremendous attention has been directed toward the thinning and shaping of solids into so-called nanomembranes, offering a unique and fantastic platform for research in nanoscience and nanotechnology. In this Review, a conceptual description of nanomembranes is introduced and a series of examples demonstrate their great potential for future applications. The thinning of nanomembranes indeed offers another strategy to fabricate nanomaterials, which can be integrated onto a chip and exhibit valuable properties (e.g. giant persistent photoconductivity and thermoelectric property). Furthermore, the stretching of nanomembranes enables a macroscale route for tuning the physical properties of the membranes at the nanoscale. The process by which nanomembranes release from a substrate presents several approaches to shaping nanomembranes into three-dimensional architectures, such as rolled-up tubes, wrinkles, and the resulting channels, which can provide fascinating applications in electronics, mechanics, fluidics, and photonics. Nanomembranes as a new type of nanomaterial promise to be an attractive direction for nanoresearch.

Abstract
We report the use of free-standing, lightweight, and highly conductive ultrathin graphite foam (UGF), loaded with lithium iron phosphate (LFP), as a cathode in a lithium ion battery. At a high charge/discharge current density of 1280 mA g(-1), the specific capacity of the LFP loaded on UGF was 70 mAh g(-1), while LFP loaded on Al foil failed. Accounting for the total mass of the electrode, the maximum specific capacity of the UGF/LFP cathode was 23% higher than that of the Al/LFP cathode and 170% higher than that of the Ni-foam/LFP cathode. Using UGF, both a higher rate capability and specific capacity can be achieved simultaneously, owing to its conductive (∼1.3 × 10(5) S m(-1) at room temperature) and three-dimensional lightweight (∼9.5 mg cm(-3)) graphitic structure. Meanwhile, UGF presents excellent electrochemical stability comparing to that of Al and Ni foils, which are generally used as conductive substrates in lithium ion batteries. Moreover, preparation of the UGF electrode was facile, cost-effective, and compatible with various electrochemically active materials.

Abstract
A review of present and future on-chip rolled-up devices, which can be used to develop lab-in-a-tube total analysis systems, is presented. Lab-in-a-tube is the integration of numerous rolled-up components into a single device constituting a microsystem of hundreds/thousands of independent units on a chip, each individually capable of sorting, detecting and analyzing singular organisms. Such a system allows for a scale-down of biosensing systems, while at the same time increasing the data collection through a large, smart array of individual biosensors. A close look at these ultracompact components which have been developed over the past decade is given. Methods for the capture of biomaterial are laid out and progress of cell culturing in three-dimensional scaffolding is detailed. Rolled-up optical sensors based on photoluminescence, optomechanics, optofluidics and metamaterials are presented. Magnetic sensors are introduced as well as electrical components including heating, energy storage and resistor devices.

Abstract
Nanomaterials have some disadvantages in application as Li ion battery materials, such as low density, poor electronic conductivity and high risk of surface side reactions. In recent years, materials with core-shell nanostructures, which was initially a common concept in semiconductors, have been introduced to the field of Li ion batteries in order to overcome the disadvantages of nanomaterials, and increase their general performances in Li ion batteries. Many efforts have been made to exploit core-shell Li ion battery materials, including cathode materials, such as lithium transition metal oxides with varied core and shell compositions, and lithium transition metal phosphates with carbon shells; and anode materials, such as metals, alloys, Si and transition metal oxides with carbon shells. More recently, graphene has also been proposed as a shell material. All these core-shell nanostructured materials presented enhanced electrochemical capacity and cyclic stability. In this review, we summarize the preparation, electrochemical performances, and structural stability of core-shell nanostructured materials for lithium ion batteries, and we also discuss the problems and prospects of this kind of materials.

Abstract
Detection and analysis of magnetic nanoobjects is a crucial task in modern diagnostic and therapeutic techniques applied to medicine and biology. Accomplishment of this task calls for the development and implementation of electronic elements directly in fluidic channels, which still remains an open and nontrivial issue. Here, we present a novel concept based on rolled-up nanotechnology for fabrication of multifunctional devices, which can be straightforwardly integrated into existing fluidic architectures. We apply strain engineering to roll-up a functional nanomembrane consisting of a magnetic sensor element based on [Py/Cu](30) multilayers, revealing giant magnetoresistance (GMR). The comparison of the sensor's characteristics before and after the roll-up process is found to be similar, allowing for a reliable and predictable method to fabricate high-quality ultracompact GMR devices. The performance of the rolled-up magnetic sensor was optimized to achieve high sensitivity to weak magnetic fields. We demonstrate that the rolled-up tube itself can be efficiently used as a fluidic channel, while the integrated magnetic sensor provides an important functionality to detect and respond to a magnetic field. The performance of the rolled-up magnetic sensor for the in-flow detection of ferromagnetic CrO(2) nanoparticles embedded in a biocompatible polymeric hydrogel shell is highlighted.
