Article Abstract

In the critical area of sustainable energy storage, solid-state batteries have attracted considerable attention due to their potential safety, energy-density and cycle-life benefits. This Review describes recent progress in the fundamental understanding of inorganic solid electrolytes, which lie at the heart of the solid-state battery concept, by addressing key issues in the areas of multiscale ion transport, electrochemical and mechanical properties, and current processing routes. The main electrolyte-related challenges for practical solid-state devices include utilization of metal anodes, stabilization of interfaces and the maintenance of physical contact, the solutions to which hinge on gaining greater knowledge of the underlying properties of solid electrolyte materials.

Cells of the methylotrophic yeast Ogataea parapolymorpha have two genes encoding low-affinity phosphate transporters: PHO87, encoding the plasma membrane transporter, and PHO91, encoding a protein, which is homologous to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae vacuolar membrane transporter. Earlier, we reported that inactivation of PHO91 in O. parapolymorpha interferes with methanol utilization due to the lack of activity of methanol oxidase encoded by the MOX gene.

Bacteria encounter numerous stressors in their constantly changing environments and have evolved many methods to deal with stressors quickly and effectively. One well-known and broadly conserved stress response in bacteria is the stringent response, mediated by the alarmone (p)ppGpp. (p)ppGpp is produced in response to amino acid starvation and other nutrient limitations and stresses and regulates both the activity of proteins and expression of genes.

The enthalpy of the oxotransfer reaction of [BuN][WO(mnt)] (where mnt is maleonitriledithiolate) with PPh in an inert atmosphere in an acetonitrile solution was determined by calorimetry. The obtained enthalpy value (-93 ± 5) kJ mol differs from the enthalpy value of the reaction carried out by us earlier under aerobic conditions by (16 ± 9) kJ mol. The obtained results indicate the participation of atmospheric oxygen in the catalytic process.

Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites (HOIP) have emerged in recent years as highly promising semiconducting materials for a wide range of optoelectronic and energy applications. Nevertheless, the rotational dynamics of the organic components and many-molecule interdependencies, which may strongly impact the functional properties of HOIP, are not yet fully understood. In this study, we quantitatively analyze the orientational disorder and molecular correlations in archetypal perovskite CHNHPbI (MAPI) by performing comprehensive molecular dynamics simulations and entropy calculations.
