Spectroscopic diagnostics of the edge ion temperature were developed on the T-10 tokamak. Spatially resolved measurements of C and other ionization states of carbon spectral line shapes are provided. Spectra were measured with high spectral resolution using 14 lines of sight in one poloidal section of the tokamak. Each measured line-integrated spectrum contains a combination of multiple local spectra with corresponding values of ion temperature. Modeling of spatial distribution of line emissivity and spectral line shapes along the lines of sight allows the reconstruction of the ion temperature profile on the basis of the closest match of measured and modeled spectra. The fine structure of spectral line, Zeeman effect, and apparatus function are taken into account during data processing. Obtained ion temperature profiles, T(r), at the plasma edge are in good agreement with ion temperature profiles measured by Charge eXchange Recombination Spectroscopy (CXRS) diagnostics of T-10. Use of the CXRS equipment for measurements of passive spectra can provide additional information on the temporal evolution of the edge ion temperature. Developed diagnostics provide necessary data for the research of geodesic acoustic modes, which are strongly dependent on plasma edge ion temperature.

Potassium (K)-based batteries hold great promise for cryogenic applications owing to the small Stokes radius and weak Lewis acidity of K. Nevertheless, energy-dense (>200 W h kg) K batteries under subzero conditions have seldom been reported. Here, an over 400 W h kg K battery is realized at -40 °C via an anode-free and dual-ion strategy, surpassing these state-of-the-art K batteries and even most Li/Na batteries at low temperatures (LTs).

One of the primary challenges in commercializing perovskite solar cells (PSCs) is achieving both high power conversion efficiency (PCE) and sufficient stability. We integrate wafer-scale continuous monolayer MoS buffers at the top and bottom of a perovskite layer through a transfer process. These films physically block ion migration of perovskite into carrier transport layers and chemically stabilize the formamidinium lead iodide phase through strong coordination interaction.

The regulation of the f-f transition is the basis of utilizing the abundant optical properties of lanthanide (Ln), of which the key is to modulate the local environment of Ln ions. Here, we constructed Eu(III)-based unit-cell-sized ultrathin nanowires (UCNWs) with red luminescence and polymer-like behavior, which appears as an ideal carrier for regulating f-f transition. The f-f transition of Eu(III) in UCNWs could be precisely regulated through various ligands.

Ordered nanoporous polymer membranes offer opportunities for systematically probing the mechanisms of ion transport under confinement and for realizing useful materials for electrochemical devices. Here, we examine the impact of morphology and ion hydration on the transport of hydroxide and bromide anions in nanostructured polymer membranes with 1 nm scale pores. We use aqueous lyotropic self-assembly of an amphiphilic monomer, with a polymerizable surfactant to create direct hexagonal (H) and gyroid mesophases.

It is challenging to image structures in liquids for electron microscopy (EM); thus, low-temperature imaging has been developed, initially for aqueous systems. Organic liquids (OLs) are widely used as dispersants, although their cryogenic EM (cryo-EM) imaging is less common than that of aqueous systems. This is because the basic properties (e.
