This paper demonstrates a band enhanced ultra-broadband terahertz absorber (UBTA) based on a high-impedance surface and cavity resonance; the absorber consists of a high-impedance surface and a metallic plate spaced by a dielectric spacing layer. Simulations indicate that ultra-broadband absorption over 90% from 4.65 to 8.86 THz is realized by the high-impedance surface. It is noted that the absorption is further broadened by inserting air cylinders (ACs), thus showing that the absorption rate exceeds 90% from 5.35 to 13.08 THz. The simulations also demonstrate that the UBTA can achieve high absorption under wider incident angles. Moreover, surface current, electric field distribution, and power loss density are simulated to expound the physical mechanism.

MXene nanosheets have recently become a focus of research for corrosion protection due to their two-dimensional, sheet-like structure and distinct physicochemical characteristics. Nevertheless, their susceptibility to restacking and oxidation restricts their practical applications. To address this, the study proposes a custom hybrid structure by growing molybdenum disulfide (MoS) nanoparticles on the TiC MXene nanosheets (MX/MS) to prevent oxidation and restacking.

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding textiles have received widespread attention, and liquid metal (LM) shows superiority in flexible and deformable electronics. Here, we introduce a novel method using nanosilicates to help sinter LM through capillary evaporation, resulting in strong adhesion to substrates. By adjustment of the amount of nanosilicates, flexible EMI shielding yarns are created using dip-coating and curing processes.

As a novel energy harvesting technology, bettering the output performance of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) is vital. Although quite a number methods to increase charge density have been proposed, challenges such as high impedance matching and low output current persist, severely limit the energy utilization efficiency of TENGs. Here, a new power management circuit (PMC) is proposed that through charge storage and release strategy.

Article Synopsis
- Co-free Li-rich layered oxides (CFLLOs) are considered top candidates for efficient lithium-ion batteries due to their potential for high energy density and low cost, but they face challenges like structural damage from oxygen release and poor kinetics due to the absence of cobalt.
- A new strategy is proposed that includes regulating LiMnO phase content, designing micro-nano structures, and doping with heteroatoms to improve performance, such as enhancing capacity and stability.
- The results show that this approach significantly boosts rate performance (158 mAh g⁻¹ at 5.0 C) and cyclic stability (99% capacity retention after 400 cycles at 1.0 C), making CFLLOs more viable for future battery applications.
