Patterning the Pore Orientation of Nanoporous Metal via Self-Organization in Flow Cells.

Nanoporous metals, a class of free-standing, high specific-area materials, evolve from interface-controlled self-organization in a selective dissolution (e.g., dealloying).

Designing Cr complexes for a neutral Fe-Cr redox flow battery.

We lay out the design principles of Cr complexes to address issues of slow kinetics and parasitic reactions in the Fe-Cr redox flow battery (ICRFB). We identify theoretically and experimentally dipicolinic acid as a promising ligand, and synthesize its derivative to improve the solubility of the Cr complex to 0.7 M.
