Hard-carbon-stabilized Li–Si anodes for high-performance all-solid-state Li-ion batteries

Si anodes could be an alternative to Li anodes in the application of solid-state batteries, but they suffer from issues such as severe volume expansion and sluggish kinetics. Here the researchers develop a Li–Si alloy anode that is stabilized by hard carbon, which leads to exceptional high-performance solid-state batteries.

Flame-retardant electrolytes with electrochemically-inert and weakly coordinating dichloroalkane diluents for practical lithium metal batteries

Lithium metal batteries are restricted by their low safety and poor electrochemical performance. Here, authors present a flame-retardant electrolyte with weakly coordinating dichloroalkane diluents, demonstrating application potential in safer lithium metal batteries in the −60 to +60 °C temperature range.

A p53–phosphoinositide signalosome regulates nuclear AKT activation

Chen et al. report that following genotoxic stress, a nuclear PI3K binds p53 to generate a p53–phosphoinositide signalosome that recruits AKT and its activators, resulting in nuclear AKT activation and cell survival.

Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signalling is spatially organized at endosomal compartments by microtubule-associated protein 4

Intracellularly regulated PI3K activation. Thapa et al. find that phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate generation and Akt activation occur at intracellular membranes, rather than the plasma membrane, and that this is mediated by MAP4, which controls PI3Kα localization to microtubules.

Interfacial engineering to achieve an energy density of over 200 Wh kg⁻¹ in sodium batteries

Sodium-ion batteries have long been tipped as a promising post-Li-ion storage technology but their performance is still inferior to Li-ion batteries. Here the authors design an ampere-hour-scale battery with an initial Na-free anode configuration to achieve an energy density that rivals Li-ion batteries.

Multifunctional solvent molecule design enables high-voltage Li-ion batteries

The parasitic reactions at the electrolyte/electrode interfaces inhibit the increase of the charging cut-off voltage and the improvement of energy density. Herein, the authors design multifunctional solvent molecules and propose a practical design principle to stabilize the electrolyte/electrode interfaces for high-voltage Li ion batteries.
