Lithium has been used for the management of psychiatric illnesses for over 50 years and it continues to be regarded as a first-line agent for the treatment and prevention of bipolar disorder. Lithium possesses a narrow therapeutic index and comparatively minor alterations in plasma concentrations can have significant clinical sequelae. Several drug classes have been implicated in the development of lithium toxicity over the years, including diuretics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory compounds, but much of the anecdotal and experimental evidence supporting these interactions is dated, and many newer medications and medication classes have been introduced during the intervening years. This review is intended to provide an update on the accumulated evidence documenting potential interactions with lithium, with a focus on pharmacokinetic insights gained within the last two decades. The clinical relevance and ramifications of these interactions are discussed.

The reactions of the sterically demanding ferrocenyl lithium dimer (Fc*Li) (Fc* = 2,5-bis(3,5-di--butyl-phenyl)-1-ferrocenyl) with aluminum trihalides (AlCl, AlBr, and AlI) to furnish the corresponding monomeric bis(ferrocenyl)haloalumanes are reported. In the case of the reaction with AlI, an unexpected intramolecular 1,1'-aluminum migration in the ferrocenyl moiety was found to occur. Their monomeric structures with a tri-coordinated aluminum atom show affinitive Al⋯Fe interactions.

Solid-state polymer electrolytes (SPEs) are increasingly favored over liquid electrolytes for emerging energy storage devices due to their safety features, enhanced stability, and multifunctionality. Minor solvents (such as water) are often introduced unintentionally or intentionally into SPEs. Although it can significantly affect SPEs' electrochemical and mechanical properties, the fundamental role of such solvent content has rarely been studied.

ConspectusWater-in-salt electrolytes (WiSEs) are promising electrolytes for next-generation lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), offering critical advantages like nonflammability and improved safety. These electrolytes have extremely high salt concentrations and exhibit unique solvation structures and transport mechanisms dominated by the formation of ion networks and aggregates. These ion networks are central to the performance of WiSEs, govern the transport properties and stability of the electrolyte, deviating from conventional dilute aqueous or organic electrolytes.

Lithium-tellurium (Li-Te) batteries are gaining attention as a promising next-generation energy storage system due to their superior electrical conductivity and high volumetric capacity compared to sulfur and selenium. Tellurium's unique properties, such as suitable redox potential, excellent conductivity, high volumetric capacity, and greatest stability, position it as a strong candidate for negative electrode materials. This study explores the potential of metal tellurides, specifically CuTe and FeTe monolayers, as effective tellurium host materials, leveraging their polar interactions with lithium polytellurides.

The integration of a photodetector that converts optical signals into electrical signals is essential for scalable integrated lithium niobate photonics. Two-dimensional materials provide a potential high-efficiency on-chip detection capability. Here, we demonstrate an efficient on-chip photodetector based on a few layers of MoTe on a thin film lithium niobate waveguide and integrate it with a microresonator operating in an optical telecommunication band.
