  • The solid–electrolyte interphase is widely viewed as key to governing the performance of rechargeable batteries, but its electrical properties remain elusive. Here the authors develop an experimental approach to directly measure the properties and show that the solid–electrolyte interphase has a voltage-dependent conducting behaviour.

  • In contrast to photothermal therapy requiring high powers over extended times and photodynamic therapy being abrogated by inhibitors of reactive oxygen species, actuation of vibronic modes in single molecules—molecular jackhammers—can now induce efficient cancer cell death. Here, the mechanical disassembly of cell membranes is characterized as the underlying mechanism by which this vibronic-driven action promotes necrotic cell death.

  • Cell swelling poses a considerable obstacle in the development of lithium-metal batteries. Here the authors report the use of a hybrid pressure-application fixture to substantially reduce swelling, analyse the pressure distribution across the cell surface and provide insights for further battery stabilization.

  • The experimental proof that single molecules may act as electronic devices has been evasive. A comprehensive set of proof-of-concept experiments has just defeated this hurdle.

  • Rechargeable Li metal batteries are currently limited by electrolyte decomposition and rapid Li consumption. Li plating and stripping greatly depend on the solid electrolyte interphase formed at the Li metal–liquid electrolyte interface. This Review discusses the reactions occurring at this interface from a corrosion science perspective, highlighting the requirements for an ideal passivation layer.
