Developments of the large negative ion source have been progressed in the high-energy, high-power, and long-pulse neutral beam injector for JT-60 Super Advanced. Countermeasures have been studied and tested for critical issues of grid heat load and voltage holding capability. As for the heat load of the acceleration grids, direct interception of D- ions was reduced by adjusting the beamlet steering. As a result, the heat load was reduced below an allowable level for long-pulse injections. As for the voltage holding capability, local electric field was mitigated by tuning gap lengths between large-area acceleration grids in the accelerator. As a result, the voltage holding capability was improved up to the rated value of 500 kV. To investigate the voltage holding capability during beam acceleration, the beam acceleration test is ongoing with new extended gap.

Electrospinning can be used to prepare membranes with characteristics for biomedical application. In this work, the electrospinning conditions for the fabrication of membranes based on polymers extracted from natural sources such as chitosan and collagen were optimized (injection flow, injection volume, distance from the collector to the neddle, needle size and voltage). Specifically, four formulations were prepared with pure chitosan and mixtures of collagen (purified or hydrolyzed) and agarose.

Revitalizing interphase in all-solid-state Li metal batteries by electrophile reduction.

All-solid-state lithium metal batteries promise high levels of safety and energy density, but their practical realization is limited by low Li reversibility, limited cell loading and demand for high-temperature and high-pressure operation, stemming from solid-state electrolyte (SSE) low-voltage reduction and high-voltage decomposition, and from lithium dendrite growth. Here we concurrently address these challenges by reporting that a family of reductive electrophiles gain electrons and cations from metal-nucleophile materials (here a Li sulfide SSE) upon contact to undergo electrochemical reduction and form interphase layers (named solid reductive-electrophile interphase) on material surfaces. The solid reductive-electrophile interphase is electron blocking and lithiophobic, prevents SSE reduction, suppresses Li dendrites and supports high-voltage cathodes.

Numerous studies have focused on graphene owing to its potential as a next-generation electronic material, considering its high conductivity, transparency, superior mechanical stiffness, and flexibility. However, cost-effective mass production of graphene-based electronics based on existing fabrication methods, such as graphene transfer and metal formation, remains a challenge. This study proposes a simple and efficient method for creating electrical contacts with graphene.
