Application


  • Recycled Graphite from Spent Lithium-Ion Batteries as a Conductive Framework Directly Applied in Red Phosphorus-Based Anodes.: This study explores using recycled graphite from spent lithium-ion batteries to create a conductive framework for red phosphorus-based anodes, enhancing their performance and sustainability in battery applications (Huang et al., 2023).

  • P-Doping a Porous Carbon Host Promotes the Lithium Storage Performance of Red Phosphorus.: This research demonstrates that P-doping of a porous carbon host significantly improves the lithium storage performance of red phosphorus, offering a promising approach for high-capacity battery anodes (Han et al., 2023).

  • Laser-Ablated Red Phosphorus on Carbon Nanotube Film for Accelerating Polysulfide Conversion toward High-Performance and Flexible Lithium-Sulfur Batteries.: The study introduces a laser-ablation technique to incorporate red phosphorus onto carbon nanotube films, enhancing polysulfide conversion and overall battery performance (Lee et al., 2021).

  • Green, Template-Less Synthesis of Honeycomb-like Porous Micron-Sized Red Phosphorus for High-Performance Lithium Storage.: This paper presents a green, template-less synthesis method for creating honeycomb-like porous red phosphorus, leading to improved lithium storage capabilities for battery applications (Zhu et al., 2021).

The biogeochemical cycles of carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are interlinked by primary production, respiration and decomposition in terrestrial ecosystems. It has been suggested that the C, N and P cycles could become uncoupled under rapid climate change

Human activities have increased the availability of reactive nitrogen in many ecosystems, leading to negative impacts on human health, biodiversity, and water quality. Freshwater ecosystems, including lakes, streams, and wetlands, are a large global sink for reactive nitrogen, but factors

Phosphorus ((31)P), which is essential for life, is thought to be synthesized in massive stars and dispersed into interstellar space when these stars explode as supernovae (SNe). Here, we report on near-infrared spectroscopic observations of the young SN remnant Cassiopeia

Nature, 505(7481), 82-86 (2013-11-19)
Plant species diversity in Eurasian wetlands and grasslands depends not only on productivity but also on the relative availability of nutrients, particularly of nitrogen and phosphorus. Here we show that the impacts of nitrogen:phosphorus stoichiometry on plant species richness can

Fracture risk is determined by bone mass, geometry, and microstructure, which result from peak bone mass (the amount attained at the end of pubertal growth) and from the amount of bone lost subsequently. Nutritional intakes are an important environmental factor
