Constructing Matching Cathode-Anode Interphases with Improved Chemo-mechanical Stability for High-Energy Batteries.

Coupling Ni-rich layered oxide cathodes with Si-based anodes is one of the most promising strategies to realize high-energy-density Li-ion batteries. However, unstable interfaces on both cathode and anode sides cause continuous parasitic reactions, resulting in structural degradation and capacity fading of full cells. Herein, lithium tetrafluoro(oxalato) phosphate is synthesized and applied as a multifunctional electrolyte additive to mitigate irreversible volume swing of the SiO anode and suppress undesirable interfacial evolution of the LiNiCoMnO (NCM) cathode simultaneously, resulting in improved cycle life.

APOE as potential biomarkers of moyamoya disease.

Objective: The mechanisms underpinning Moyamoya disease (MMD) remain unclear, and effective biomarkers remain unknown. The purpose of this study was to identify novel serum biomarkers of MMD.

Methods: Serum samples were collected from 23 patients with MMD and 30 healthy controls (HCs).
