Abstract
Biomolecular condensates play a major role in cell compartmentalization, besides membrane-enclosed organelles. The multivalent SLP65 and CIN85 proteins are proximal B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) signal effectors and critical for proper immune responses. In association with intracellular vesicles, the two effector proteins form phase separated condensates prior to antigen stimulation, thereby preparing B lymphocytes for rapid and effective activation upon BCR ligation. Within this tripartite system, 6 proline-rich motifs (PRMs) of SLP65 interact promiscuously with 3 SH3 domains of the CIN85 monomer, establishing 18 individual SH3-PRM interactions whose individual dissociation constants we determined. Based on these 18 dissociation constants, we measured the phase-separation properties of the natural SLP65/CIN85 system as well as designer constructs that emphasize the strongest SH3/PRM interactions. By modeling these various SLP65/CIN85 constructs with the program LASSI (LAttice simulation engine for Sticker and Spacer Interactions), we reproduced the observed phase-separation properties. In addition, LASSI revealed a deviation in the experimental measurement, which was independently identified as a previously unknown intramolecular interaction. Thus, thermodynamic properties of the individual PRM/SH3 interactions allow us to model the phase-separation behavior of the SLP65/CIN85 system faithfully.

Abstract
Transition metals and related compounds are known to exhibit high catalytic activities in various electrochemical reactions thanks to their intriguing electronic structures. What is lesser known is their unique role in storing and transferring electrons in battery electrodes which undergo additional solid-state conversion reactions and exhibit substantially large extra capacities. Here, a full dynamic picture depicting the generation and evolution of electrochemical interfaces in the presence of metallic nanoparticles is revealed in a model CoCO3/Li battery via an in situ magnetometry technique. Beyond the conventional reduction to a Li2CO3/Co mixture under battery operation, further decomposition of Li2CO3 is realized by releasing interfacially stored electrons from its adjacent Co nanoparticles, whose subtle variation in the electronic structure during this charge transfer process has been monitored in real time. The findings in this work may not only inspire future development of advanced electrode materials for next-generation energy storage devices but also open up opportunities in achieving in situ monitoring of important electrocatalytic processes in many energy conversion and storage systems.

Abstract
The narrow electrochemical stability window, deleterious side reactions, and zinc dendrites prevent the use of aqueous zinc-ion batteries. Here, aqueous "soggy-sand" electrolytes (synergistic electrolyte-insulator dispersions) are developed for achieving high-voltage Zn-ion batteries. How these electrolytes bring a unique combination of benefits, synergizing the advantages of solid and liquid electrolytes is revealed. The oxide additions adsorb water molecules and trap anions, causing a network of space charge layers with increased Zn2+ transference number and reduced interfacial resistance. They beneficially modify the hydrogen bond network and solvation structures, thereby influencing the mechanical and electrochemical properties, and causing the Mn2+ in the solution to be oxidized. As a result, the best performing Al2 O3 -based "soggy-sand" electrolyte exhibits a long life of 2500 h in Zn||Zn cells. Furthermore, it increases the charging cut-off voltage for Zn/MnO2 cells to 2 V, achieving higher specific capacities. Even with amass loading of 10 mgMnO2 cm-2 , it yields a promising specific capacity of 189 mAh g-1 at 1 A g-1 after 500 cycles. The concept of "soggy-sand" chemistry provides a new approach to design powerful and universal electrolytes for aqueous batteries.

Abstract
Ba1-xLaxFeO3-δ perovskites (BLF) capable of conducting electrons, protons, and oxygen ions are promising oxygen electrodes for efficient solid oxide cells (fuel cells or electrolyzers), an integral part of prospected large-scale power-to-gas energy storage systems. We investigated the compatibility of BLF with lanthanum content between 5 and 50%, in contact with oxide-ion-conducting Ce0.8Gd0.2O2-δ and proton-conducting BaZr0.825Y0.175O3-δ electrolytes, annealing the electrode-electrolyte bilayers at high temperature to simulate thermal stresses of fabrication and prolonged operation. By employing both bulk X-ray diffraction and synchrotron X-ray microspectroscopy, we present a space-resolved picture of the interaction between electrode and electrolyte as what concerns cation interdiffusion, exsolution, and phase stability. We found that the phase stability of BLF in contact with other phases is correlated with the Goldschmidt tolerance factor, in turn determined by the La/Ba ratio, and appropriate doping strategies with oversized cations (Zn2+, Y3+) could improve structural stability. While extensive reactivity and/or interdiffusion was often observed, we put forward that most products of interfacial reactions, including proton-conducting Ba(Ce,Gd)O3-δ and mixed-conducting (Ba,La)(Fe,Zr,Y)O3-δ, may not be very detrimental for practical cell operation.

Abstract
One of the key challenges in battery research is to quantitatively describe the intercalation storage capacity as a function of the reversible cell voltage. The reason that such endeavors are not yet very successful, lies in the lack of an adequate charge carrier treatment. Using the most challenging example of nanocrystalline lithium iron phosphate, where the full range from FePO4 to LiFePO4 is accessible without miscibility gap, this study shows how a quantitative description of literature results can be achieved even for such a huge window. For this purpose, point-defect thermodynamics is applied and the problem is tackled from the two end-member sides including saturation effects. A first, rather heuristic treatment interpolates in-between using the safe thermodynamic criterion of local phase stability. Already this straightforward approach works very satisfactorily. In order to also gain mechanistic insight, interactions among and between ions and electrons have to be taken account of. This study shows how to implement them into the analysis.

Abstract
Halide perovskites (HPs) are promising candidates for optoelectronic devices, such as solar cells or light-emitting diodes. Despite recent progress in performance optimization and low-cost manufacturing, their commercialization remains hindered due to structural instabilities. While essential to the development of the technology, the relation between the microscopic properties of HPs and the relevant degradation mechanisms is still not well understood. The sensitivity of HPs toward electron-beam irradiation poses significant challenges for transmission electron microscopy (TEM) investigations of structure and degradation mechanisms at the atomic scale. However, technological advances and the development of direct electron cameras (DECs) have opened up a completely new field of electron microscopy: four-dimensional scanning TEM (4D-STEM). From a 4D-STEM dataset, it is possible to extract not only the intensity signal for any STEM detector geometry but also the phase information of the specimen. This work aims to show the potential of 4D-STEM, in particular, electron exit-wave phase reconstructions via focused probe ptychography as a low-dose and dose-efficient technique to image the atomic structure of beam-sensitive HPs. The damage mechanism under conventional irradiation is described and atomically resolved almost aberration-free phase images of three all-inorganic HPs, CsPbBr3, CsPbIBr2, and CsPbI3, are presented with a resolution down to the aperture-constrained diffraction limit.

Abstract
The development of photoelectrochemical devices based on mixed ionic-electronic conductors requires knowledge of transport, generation and reaction of electronic and ionic charge carriers. Thermodynamic representations can significantly help the understanding of these processes. They should be simple and reflect the necessity of dealing with ions and electrons. In this work, we discuss the extension of energy diagrams commonly used to describe electronic properties of semiconductors to the defect chemical treatment of electronic and ionic charge carriers in mixed conducting materials as introduced in the context of nanoionics. We focus on hybrid perovskites in relation to their use as the active layer material of solar cells. Owing to the presence of at least two ion types, a variety of native ionic disorder processes have to be dealt with in addition to the single fundamental electronic disorder process as well as potential frozen-in defects. Various situations are discussed that show how such generalized level diagrams can be usefully applied and appropriately simplified in the determination of the equilibrium behavior of bulk and interfaces in solar cell devices. This approach can serve as a basis for investigating the behavior of perovskite solar cells, but also other mixed-conducting devices operating under bias.

Abstract
The electrical response of hybrid perovskite devices carries a significant signature from mobile ionic defects, pointing to both opportunities and threats when it comes to functionality, performance and stability of these devices. Despite its importance, the interpretation of polarization effects due to the mixed ionic-electronic conducting nature of these materials and the quantification of their ionic conductivities still poses conceptual and practical challenges, even for the equilibrium situation. In this study, we address these questions and investigate the electrical response of horizontal devices based on methylammonium lead iodide (MAPI) close to equilibrium conditions. We discuss the interpretation of DC polarization and impedance spectroscopy measurements in the dark, based on calculated and fitted impedance spectra obtained using equivalent circuit models that account for the mixed conductivity of the perovskite and for the effect of device geometry. Our results show that, for horizontal structures with a gap width between the metal electrodes in the order of tens of microns, the polarization behavior of MAPI is well described by the charging of the mixed conductor/metal interface, suggesting a Debye length in the perovskite close to 1 nm. We highlight a signature in the impedance response at intermediate frequencies, which we assign to ionic diffusion in the plane parallel to the MAPI/contact interface. By comparing the experimental impedance results with calculated spectra for different circuit models, we discuss the potential role of multiple mobile ionic species and rule out a significant contribution from iodine exchange with the gas phase in the electrical response of MAPI close to equilibrium. This study helps to clarify the measurement and interpretation of mixed conductivity and polarization effects in hybrid perovskites with immediate relevance to the characterization and development of transistors, memristors and solar cells based on this class of materials as well as other mixed conductors.

Abstract
Li and Na metals with high energy density are promising in application in rechargeable batteries but suffer from degradation in the ambient atmosphere. The phenomenon that in terms of kinetics, Li is stable but Na is unstable in dry air has not been fully understood. Here, we use in situ environmental transmission electron microscopy combined with theoretical simulations and reveal that the different stabilities in dry air for Li and Na are reflected by the formation of compact Li2O layers on Li metal, while porous and rough Na2O/Na2O2 layers on Na metal are a consequence of the different thermodynamic and kinetics in O2. It is shown that a preformed carbonate layer can change the kinetics of Na toward an anticorrosive behavior. Our study provides a deeper understanding of the often-overlooked chemical reactions with environmental gases and enhances the electrochemical performance of Li and Na by controlling interfacial stability.

Abstract
This work reports on the ion transport properties and defect chemistry in anhydrous lithium thiocyanate Li(SCN), which is a pseudo-halide Li+ cation conductor. An extensive doping study was conducted, employing magnesium, zinc and cobalt thiocyanate as donor dopants to systematically vary the conductivity and derive a defect model. The investigations are based on impedance measurements and supported by other analytical techniques such as X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), infrared (IR) spectroscopy, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The material was identified as Schottky disordered with lithium vacancies being the majority mobile charge carriers. In the case of Mg2+ as dopant, defect association with lithium vacancies was observed at low temperatures. Despite a comparably low Schottky defect formation enthalpy of (0.6 ± 0.3) eV, the unexpectedly high lithium vacancy migration enthalpy of (0.89 ± 0.08) eV distinguishes Li(SCN) from the chemically related lithium halides. A detailed defect model of Li(SCN) is presented and respective thermodynamic and kinetic data are given. The thiocyanate anion (SCN)- has a significant impact on ion mobility due to its anisotropic structure and bifunctionality in forming both Li-N and Li-S bonds. More details about the impact on ion dynamics at local and global scale, and on the defect chemical analysis of the premelting regime at high temperatures are given in separate publications (Part II and Part III).

Abstract
The discrete model of space charge zones in solids reveals and remedies a variety of problems with the classic continuous Gouy-Chapman solution that occur for pronounced space charge potentials. Besides inherent problems of internal consistency, it is essentially the extremely steep profile close to the interface which makes this continuum approach questionable. Not only is quasi-1D discrete modeling a sensible approach for large space charge effects, it can also favorably be combined with the continuum description. A particularly useful application is the explicit implementation of crystallographic details and non-idealities close to the interface. This enables us to consider elastic, structural or saturation effects as well as permittivity variations in a simple but realistic way. We address details of the charge carrier profiles, but also overall properties such as space charge capacitance and space charge resistance. In the latter case the difference in the total charge (at identical concentration) is of importance, in the first case it is the inherent difference in the centroid of charge (at identical total charge) that is remarkable. The model is equally applicable for ionic charge carriers and small polarons.

Abstract
Realization of all-solid-state batteries combined with metallic Li/Na is still hindered due to the unstable interface between the alkali metal and solid electrolytes, especially for highly promising thiophosphate materials. Artificial and uniform solid-electrolyte interphases (SEIs), serving as thin ion-conducting films, have been considered as a strategy to overcome the issues of such reactive interfaces. Here, we synthesized sulfide-based artificial SEIs (LixSy and NaxSy) on Li and Na by solid/gas reaction between the alkali metal and S vapor. The synthesized films are carefully characterized with various chemical/electrochemical techniques. We show that these artificial SEIs are not beneficial from an application point of view since they either contribute to additional resistances (Li) or do not prevent reactions at the alkali metal/electrolyte interface (Na). We show that NaxSy is more porous than LixSy, supported by (i) its rough morphology observed by focused ion beam-scanning electron microscopy, (ii) the rapid decrease of Rinterface (interfacial resistance) in NaxSy-covered-Na symmetric cells with liquid electrolyte upon aging under open-circuit potential, and (iii) the increase of Rinterface in NaxSy-covered-Na solid-state symmetric cells with Na3PS4 electrolyte. The porous SEI allows the penetration of liquid electrolyte or alkali metal creep through its pores, resulting in a continuous chemical reaction. Hence, porosity of SEIs in general should be carefully taken into account in the application of batteries containing both liquid electrolyte and solid electrolyte.

Abstract
Layered Dion-Jacobson (DJ) and Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) hybrid perovskites are promising materials for optoelectronic applications due to their modular structure. To fully exploit their functionality, mechanical stimuli can be used to control their properties without changing the composition. However, the responsiveness of these systems to pressure compatible with practical applications (<1 GPa) remains unexploited. Hydrostatic pressure is used to investigate the structure-property relationships in representative iodide and bromide DJ and RP 2D perovskites based on 1,4-phenylenedimethylammonium (PDMA) and benzylammonium (BzA) spacers in the 0-0.35 GPa pressure range. Pressure-dependent X-ray scattering measurements reveal that lattices of these compositions monotonically shrink and density functional theory calculations provide insights into the structural changes within the organic spacer layer. These structural changes affect the optical properties; the most significant shift in the optical absorption is observed in (BzA)2 PbBr4 under 0.35 GPa pressure, which is attributed to an isostructural phase transition. Surprisingly, the RP and DJ perovskites behave similarly under pressure, despite the different binding modes of the spacer molecules. This study provides important insights into how the manipulation of the crystal structure affects the optoelectronic properties of such materials, whereas the reversibility of their response expands the perspectives for future applications.

Abstract
Abstract
Ionic redistribution at solid interfaces in ionic materials is the keystone of nanoionics. An experimental master piece has been provided by CaF2-BaF2 heterolayers. Meanwhile this system and the involved heterojunctions are extraordinarily well-understood. The present paper gives an account of this model system by reviewing not only transport experiments and defect-chemical modeling as a function of temperature and spacing of the individual layers, but also transition from semi-infinite to mesoscopic conditions, transition from Mott–Schottky to Gouy–Chapman behavior as well as the impact of ionic redistribution on the electronic minority carriers. Owing to the availability of bulk transport data, the analysis works well for in-plane and out-of-plane measurements with only the space charge potential as fit parameter. Space charge effects are able to provide an interpretation of the annealing behavior, too. The experiments are corroborated by molecular dynamics simulations. Extrapolating the ionic redistribution effects down to the atomic level may even explain homovalent doping effects in non-equilibrium mixtures of the two fluorides.

Abstract
Despite the fact that solid electrolyte interphases (SEIs) on alkali metals (Li and Na) are of great importance in the utilization of batteries with high energy density, growth mechanism of SEIs under an open-circuit potential important for the shelf life and the nature of ionic transport through SEIs are yet poorly understood. In this work, SEIs on Li/Na formed by bringing the electrodes in contact with ether- and carbonate-based electrolyte in symmetric cells were systematically investigated using diverse electrochemical/chemical characterization techniques. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements linked with activation energy determination and cross-section images of Li/Na electrodes measured by ex situ FIB-SEM revealed the liquid/solid composite nature of SEIs, indicating their porosity. SEIs on Na electrodes are shown to be more porous compared to the ones on Li in both carbonate and glyme-based electrolytes. Nonpassivating nature of such SEIs is detrimental for the performance of alkali metal batteries. We laid special emphasis on evaluating time-dependent activation energy using EIS.

Abstract
Layered hybrid perovskites based on Dion-Jacobson phases are of interest to various optoelectronic applications. However, the understanding of their structure-property relationships remains limited. Here, we present a systematic study of Dion-Jacobson perovskites based on (S)PbX4 (n = 1) compositions incorporating phenylene-derived aromatic spacers (S) with different anchoring alkylammonium groups and halides (X = I, Br). We focus our study on 1,4-phenylenediammonium (PDA), 1,4-phenylenedimethylammonium (PDMA), and 1,4-phenylenediethylammonium (PDEA) spacers. Systems based on PDA did not form a well-defined layered structure, showing the formation of a 1D structure instead, whereas the extension of the alkyl chains to PDMA and PDEA rendered them compatible with the formation of a layered structure, as shown by X-ray diffraction and solid-state NMR spectroscopy. In addition, the control of the spacer length affects optical properties and environmental stability, which is enhanced for longer alkyl chains and bromide compositions. This provides insights into their design for optoelectronic applications.

Abstract
Li[SCN]·THF and Li[SCN]·2THF can be obtained from solutions of anhydrous Li[SCN] in tetrahydrofuran (C4H8O, THF). Both compounds are very hygroscopic and slowly decompose even at room temperature. At ambient conditions Li[SCN]·THF crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with the lattice parameters a = 574.41(2), b = 1643.11(6), c = 830.15(3) pm and β = 99.009(1)° for Z = 4 as determined by laboratory X-ray powder diffraction. Its crystal structure contains Li+ cations surrounded by one THF molecule and three thiocyanate anions [SCN]- forming {Li[NCS]2[SCN](OC4H8)}2- tetrahedra, which join together as pairs via shared N⋯N edges. CHNS combustion analysis and vibrational spectroscopy confirmed its composition, whereas differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis coupled with a mass spectrometer were applied to record its thermal behaviour. Li[SCN]·2THF crystallises in a primitive monoclinic lattice as well, but in the space group P21/n with the lattice parameters a = 1132.73(3), b = 1637.98(3), c = 1264.88(2) pm and β = 94.393(2)° for Z = 8 as determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data at 100 K. Its structure contains two crystallographically independent Li+-centred tetrahedra {Li[NCS]2(OC4H8)2}-, which form dimers {(C4H8O)2Li[μ2-NCS]2Li(OC4H8)2} via shared N⋯N edges. They are merely stabilised by weak agostic H⋯S interactions between some CH2-groups of the C4H8O molecules and the [NCS]- ligands.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the dual-energy (DE) performance and spectral separation with respect to iodine imaging in a photon-counting CT (PCCT) and compare it to dual-source CT (DSCT) DE imaging. METHODS A semi-anthropomorphic phantom extendable with fat rings equipped with iodine vials is measured in an experimental PCCT. The system comprises a PC detector with two energy bins (20 keV, T) and (T, eU) with threshold T and tube voltage U. Measurements using the PCCT are performed at all available tube voltages (80 to 140 kV) and threshold settings (50-90 keV). Further measurements are performed using a conventional energy-integrating DSCT. Spectral separation is quantified as the relative contrast media ratio R between the energy bins and low/high images. Image noise and dose-normalized contrast-to-noise ratio (CNRD) are evaluated in resulting iodine images. All results are validated in a post-mortem angiography study. RESULTS R of the PC detector varies between 1.2 and 2.6 and increases with higher thresholds and higher tube voltage. Reference R of the EI DSCT is found as 2.20 on average overall phantoms. Maximum CNRD in iodine images is found for T = 60/65/70/70 keV for 80/100/120/140 kV. The highest CNRD of the PCCT is obtained using 140 kV and is decreasing with decreasing tube voltage. All results could be confirmed in the post-mortem angiography study. CONCLUSION Intrinsically acquired DE data are able to provide iodine images similar to conventional DSCT. However, PCCT thresholds should be chosen with respect to tube voltage to maximize image quality in retrospectively derived image sets. KEY POINTS • Photon-counting CT allows for the computation of iodine images with similar quality compared to conventional dual-source dual-energy CT. • Thresholds should be chosen as a function of the tube voltage to maximize iodine contrast-to-noise ratio in derived image sets. • Image quality of retrospectively computed image sets can be maximized using optimized threshold settings.

Abstract
Ion conducting materials are critical components of batteries, fuel cells, and devices such as memristive switches. Analytical tools are therefore sought that allow the behavior of ions in solids to be monitored and analyzed with high spatial resolution and in real time. In principle, inelastic tunneling spectroscopy offers these capabilities. However, as its spectral resolution is limited by thermal softening of the Fermi-Dirac distribution, tunneling spectroscopy is usually constrained to cryogenic temperatures. This constraint would seem to render tunneling spectroscopy useless for studying ions in motion. Here, the first inelastic tunneling spectroscopy studies above room temperature are reported. For these measurements, high-temperature-stable tunnel junctions that incorporate within the tunnel barrier ultrathin layers for efficient proton conduction are developed. By analyzing the vibrational modes of OH bonds in BaZrO3 -based heterostructures, the detection of protons with a spectral resolution of 20 meV at 400 K (full-width-at-half maximum) is demonstrated. Overturning the hitherto existing prediction for the spectral resolution limit of 186 meV (5.4 kB T ) at 400 K, this resolution enables high-temperature tunneling spectroscopy of ion conductors. With these advances, inelastic tunneling spectroscopy constitutes a novel, valuable analytical tool for solid-state ionics.

Abstract
Metal fluoride (MF) conversion cathodes theoretically show higher gravimetric and volumetric capacities than Ni- or Co-based intercalation oxide cathodes, which makes metal fluoride-lithium batteries promising candidates for next-generation high-energy-density batteries. However, their high-energy characteristics are clouded by low-capacity utilization, large voltage hysteresis, and poor cycling stability of transition MF cathodes. A variety of reasons is responsible for this: poor reaction kinetics, low conductivities, unstable MF/electrolyte interfaces and dissolution of active species upon cycling. Herein, we combine the synthesis of the metal-organic-framework (MOF) with the low-temperature fluorination to prepare MOF-shaped CoF2@C nanocomposites that exhibit confinement of the CoF2 nanoparticles and efficient mixed-conducting wiring in the produced architecture. The ultrasmall CoF2 nanoparticles (5-20 nm on average) are uniformly covered by graphitic carbon walls and embedded in the porous carbon framework. Within the CoF2@C nanocomposite, the cross-linked carbon wall and interconnected nanopores serve as electron- and ion-conducting pathways, respectively, enabling a highly reversible conversion reaction of CoF2. As a result, the produced CoF2@C composite cathodes successfully restrain the above-mentioned challenges and demonstrate high-capacity utilization of ∼500 mAh g-1 at 0.2C, good rate capability (up to 2C), and long-term cycle stability over 400 cycles. Overall, the presented study not only reports on a simple composite design to achieve high-energy characteristics in CoF2-Li batteries but also may provide a general solution for many other metal fluoride-lithium batteries.

Abstract
Lead halide perovskites are considered to be most promising photovoltaic materials. Highest efficiency and improved stability of perovskite solar cells have been achieved by using cation and anion mixtures. Experimental information on electronic and ionic charge carriers is key to evaluate device performance, as well as processes of photo-decomposition and photo-demixing which are observed in these materials. Here, we measure ionic and electronic transport properties and investigate various cation and anion substitutions with a special eye on their photo-ionic effect, following our previous study on CH3 NH3 PbI3 , where we found that light enhances not only electronic but also ionic conductivities. We find that this phenomenon is very sensitive to the nature of the halide, while the cationic substitutions are less relevant. Based on the observation that the ionic conductivity enhancement found for iodide perovskites is significantly weakened by bromide substitution, we provide a chemical rationale for the photo-demixing in mixed halide compositions.

Abstract
Mg(SCN)2·4H2O can be converted into previously unknown compounds Mg(SCN)2·(4 - x) H2O·xTHF with x = 0, 2 and 4 by multiple recrystallization in tetrahydrofuran (THF). The phases were characterized by infrared spectroscopy (IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and their crystal structures were solved from X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) data. In the crystal structures isolated Mg(NCS)2(H2O)4-x(THF)x units form layered motifs. The thermal behavior of Mg(SCN)2·4H2O and Mg(SCN)2·4THF was investigated by temperature dependent in situ XRPD, where Mg(SCN)2·4THF was found to acquire a room temperature (α-form) and high temperature modification (β-form). The phase transformation is associated with an order-disorder transition of the THF molecules and with a reversion of the stacking order of the layered motifs. Further heating eventually leads to the formation of Mg(SCN)2·2THF. There thiocyanate related sulfur atoms fill the voids in the coordination sphere of magnesium, which leads to the formation of one dimensional electroneutral ∞[Mg(NCS)2/2(SCN)2/2(THF)2] chains. All investigated Mg(SCN)2·(4 - x) H2O·xTHF phases exhibit a remarkable anisotropic thermal expansion, and Mg(SCN)2·4H2O and Mg(SCN)2·2THF were found to show both positive and negative thermal expansion coefficients.

Abstract
Pseudo-capacitive mechanisms can provide higher energy densities than electrical double-layer capacitors while being faster than bulk storage mechanisms. Usually, they suffer from low intrinsic electronic and ion conductivities of the active materials. Here, taking advantage of the combination of TiS2 decoration, sulfur doping, and a nanometer-sized structure, as-spun TiO2/C nanofiber composites are developed that enable rapid transport of sodium ions and electrons, and exhibit enhanced pseudo-capacitively dominated capacities. At a scan rate of 0.5 mV s-1, a high pseudo-capacitive contribution (76% of the total storage) is obtained for the S-doped TiS2/TiO2/C electrode (termed as TiS2/S-TiO2/C). Such enhanced pseudo-capacitive activity allows rapid chemical kinetics and significantly improves the high-rate sodium storage performance of TiO2. The TiS2/S-TiO2/C composite electrode delivers a high capacity of 114 mAh g-1 at a current density of 5000 mA g-1. The capacity maintains at high level (161 mAh g-1) even after 1500 cycles and is still characterized by 58 mAh g-1 at the extreme condition of 10,000 mA g-1 after 10,000 cycles.

Abstract
The formation of a stable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) is a prerogative for functional lithium metal batteries. Herein, the formation and evolution of such SEI in contact with glyme-based electrolytes is investigated under open circuit voltage and several constant current cycles. An important conclusion of the study is that Lix Sy species are nonbeneficial SEI components, compared to the Li3 N counterpart. In addition, chemical (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, XPS) and electrochemical (impedance spectroscopy) evolution of SEI under galvanostatic conditions are comprehensively tracked.

Abstract
Mixed conducting polymer films are of great interest in applications where an interface between electronic and ionic charge transport is needed, e.g., in bioelectronics, electrochemical energy applications, and photovoltaic device interfaces. The role of water on charge transport is of high relevance not only for aqueous environments but also for devices that are manufactured at ambient conditions with varying relative humidities. In this contribution, we present our results on the influence of controlled humidity changes on the mixed conductivity and correlation to the concomitant water uptake in the films. Two sulfonate-bearing polythiophene systems are studied: a self-made conjugated polyelectrolyte, poly(6-(thiophen-3-yl)hexane-1-sulfonate)-sodium (PTS-Na), and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT/PSS) with different ratios of PEDOT and the polyelectrolyte PSS. Our data give clear evidence of the similarities between the aforementioned polythiophene systems and pure ionic membranes such as Nafion used in fuel cells. As such, a phase separation between the hydrophobic electronically conducting polythiophene phase and the hydrophilic water-swellable ion-conducting phase is proposed. Changing the humidity from dry conditions up to ∼90% relative humidity results in extremely high water uptakes of more than 90 wt %, which corresponds to ∼13 water molecules per sulfonate unit at maximum water uptake. Conversely, the electronic conductivity is less sensitive to increasing humidity, which is due to percolation pathways. The ionic conductivity strongly increases from 10-10 S/cm at dry conditions to 10-3 S/cm at around 30 wt % water content and then levels off at maximum conductivities of 10-3-10-2 S/cm up to water contents of 90 wt %.

Abstract
Metal fluoride-lithium batteries with potentially high energy densities, even higher than lithium-sulfur batteries, are viewed as very promising candidates for next-generation lightweight and low-cost rechargeable batteries. However, so far, metal fluoride cathodes have suffered from poor electronic conductivity, sluggish reaction kinetics and side reactions causing high voltage hysteresis, poor rate capability, and rapid capacity degradation upon cycling. Herein, it is reported that an FeF3 @C composite having a 3D honeycomb architecture synthesized by a simple method may overcome these issues. The FeF3 nanoparticles (10-50 nm) are uniformly embedded in the 3D honeycomb carbon framework where the honeycomb walls and hexagonal-like channels provide sufficient pathways for the fast electron and Li-ion diffusion, respectively. As a result, the as-produced 3D honeycomb FeF3 @C composite cathodes even with high areal FeF3 loadings of 2.2 and 5.3 mg cm-2 offer unprecedented rate capability up to 100 C and remarkable cycle stability within 1000 cycles, displaying capacity retentions of 95%-100% within 200 cycles at various C rates, and ≈85% at 2C within 1000 cycles. The reported results demonstrate that the 3D honeycomb architecture is a powerful composite design for conversion-type metal fluorides to achieve excellent electrochemical performance in metal fluoride-lithium batteries.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The interventional left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) is an effective and safe alternative to standard oral anticoagulation (OAC) for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with contraindications for long-term OAC. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has a high prevalence among AF patients, and was shown to increase the number of peri-procedural complications in cardiac interventions.
Purpose
This subanalysis of the LAARGE registry aimed to investigate CKD's impact on outcomes after LAAC.
Methods
This prospective, real-world LAAC registry included 625 patients with documented renal function from 37 German centers between April 2014 and January 2016. CKD was defined by an eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2. Procedure was conducted with different LAAC devices considering the relevant recommendations. Baseline characteristics, procedural data, intra-hospital and one-year follow-up outcome were registered for CKD and non-CKD patients stratified by the different CKD stages.
Results
CKD patients (n=300; 48.0%) had a more pronounced cardiovascular risk profile, a higher stroke (CHA2DS2-VASc score 4.9±1.5 vs. 4.2±1.5; p<0.001) and bleeding risk (HAS-BLED score 4.3±1.0 vs. 3.5±1.0; p<0.001), and had experienced more prior bleedings (83.7 vs. 76.3%; p=0.022). Implantation success was similarly high between both groups (97.9%; p=n.s.). In CKD patients, MACCE during one-year follow-up was more frequent (18.1 vs. 6.8%; p<0.001) mainly being triggered by all-cause deaths, but in-hospital MACCE was not (0.3 vs. 0.3%; p=n.s.). Kaplan-Meier estimation showed a lower one-year survival among CKD patients (82.4 vs. 94.4%; p<0.001) without significant accentuation in patients with advanced CKD (i.e., <30 mL/min/1.73 m2; p=n.s. to other CKD patients). While annual rate of device associated complications (2.6 vs. 2.8%; p=n.s.) and strokes (0 vs. 1.0%; p=n.s.) was comparable during follow-up, annual severe bleeding rate was higher in CKD patients (2.6 vs. 0.3%; p=0.027) which was 71.4 and 94.4% less than expected from the HAS-BLED score (p<0.01 for the comparison to the estimated risks, but no significant interaction between groups).
Conclusions
Despite an increased cardiovascular risk profile of CKD patients, device implantation was safe, and annual stroke rate was statistically indifferent to non-CKD patients across all CKD stages after LAAC. Moreover, a substantial reduction of annual stroke and major bleeding risk was observed, as compared to the estimated annual risk.

Abstract
The current insertion anode chemistries are approaching their capacity limits; thus, alloying reaction anode materials with high theoretical specific capacity are investigated as potential alternatives for lithium-ion batteries. However, their performance is far from being satisfactory because of the large volume change and severe capacity decay that occurs upon lithium alloying and dealloying processes. To address these problems, we propose and demonstrate a versatile strategy that makes use of the electronic reaction confinement via the synthesis of ultrasmall Ge nanoparticles (10 nm) uniformly confined in a matrix of larger spherical carbon particles (Ge⊂C spheres). This architecture provides free pathways for electron transport and Li+ diffusion, allowing for the alloying reaction of the Ge nanoparticles. The thickness change of electrodes containing such a material, monitored byan in situ electrochemical dilatometer, is rather limited and reversible, confirming the excellent mechanical integrity of the confined electrode. As a result, these electrodes exhibit high reversible capacity (1310 mAh g-1, 0.1C) and very impressive cycling ability (92% after 1000 cycles at 2C). A prototype device employing such an alloying electrode material in combination with LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 offers a high energy density of 250 Wh kg-1.

Abstract
Many exciting "anomalies" affecting long-time and low-frequency phenomena in the photoactive halide perovskites that are presently in the focus of the field of photovoltaics turn out to be rather expected from the point of view of solid-state ionics. This Perspective discusses such issues based on the mixed conducting nature of these materials and indicates how the solid-state ionics toolbox can be used to condition and potentially improve these solids. In addition to equilibrium bulk properties, interfacial effects and light effects on the mixed conductivity are considered.

Abstract
The prerequisite for a successful clinical use of autologous adipose-tissue-derived cells is the highest possible regenerative potential of the applied cell population, the stromal vascular fraction (SVF). Current isolation methods depend on high enzyme concentration, lysis buffer, long incubation steps and mechanical stress, resulting in single cell dissociation. The aim of the study was to limit cell manipulation and obtain a derivative comprising therapeutic cells (microtissue-SVF) without dissociation from their natural extracellular matrix, by employing a gentle good manufacturing practice (GMP)-grade isolation. The microtissue-SVF yielded larger numbers of viable cells as compared to the improved standard-SVF, both with low enzyme concentration and minimal dead cell content. It comprised stromal tissue compounds (collagen, glycosaminoglycans, fibroblasts), capillaries and vessel structures (CD31+, smooth muscle actin+). A broad range of cell types was identified by surface-marker characterisation, including mesenchymal, haematopoietic, pericytic, blood and lymphatic vascular and epithelial cells. Subpopulations such as supra-adventitial adipose-derived stromal/stem cells and endothelial progenitor cells were significantly more abundant in the microtissue-SVF, corroborated by significantly higher potency for angiogenic tube-like structure formation in vitro. The microtissue-SVF showed the characteristic phenotype and tri-lineage mesenchymal differentiation potential in vitro and an immunomodulatory and pro-angiogenic secretome. In vivo implantation of the microtissue-SVF combined with fat demonstrated successful graft integration in nude mice. The present study demonstrated a fast and gentle isolation by minor manipulation of liposuction material, achieving a therapeutically relevant cell population with high vascularisation potential and immunomodulatory properties still embedded in a fraction of its original matrix.

Abstract
SrFeO3-δ is a mixed ionic-electronic conductor with a complex magnetic structure that reveals a colossal magnetoresistance effect. This material and its solid solutions are attractive for various spintronic, catalytic and electrochemical applications, including cathodes for solid oxide fuel cells and permeation membranes. Its properties strongly depend on oxygen non-stoichiometry. Ab initio hybrid functional approach was applied herein to study the thermodynamic stability of a series of SrFeO3-δ compositions with several non-stoichiometries δ, ranging from 0 to 0.5 (SrFeO3-SrFeO2.875-SrFeO2.75-SrFeO2.5) as a function of temperature and oxygen pressure. The results obtained by two approaches, in which either (i) all electrons at Fe atoms explicitly described or (ii) inner core electrons at Fe atoms are replaced by effective core potential, are compared. Based on our calculations, phase diagrams were constructed, allowing the determination of environmental conditions for the existence of stable phases. It is shown that (within an employed model) only the SrFeO2.5 phase appears to be stable. The stability region for this phase was re-drawn on the contour map of oxygen chemical potential, presented as a function of temperature and oxygen partial pressure. A similar analysis was also performed using experimental Gibbs energies of perovskite formation from the elements. The present modelling strongly suggest a significant attraction between neutral oxygen vacancies. These vacancies are created during a series of the abovementioned SrFeO3-δ mutual transformations accompanied by oxygen release.
