NaFe(PO)(PO) (NFPP) is a promising cathode material for sodium-ion batteries with cost-effectiveness and structural stability. However, its electrochemical behaviors are seriously hindered by its [PO] distortion at high voltage. To address this challenge, we introduce a distortion criterion and optimize the local crystal field environment by incorporating Cr into Fe3 sites adjacent to [PO]. This substitution elongates Fe1-O bonds, enhances Fe1 activity, and suppresses [PO] distortion, facilitating fast Na diffusion and structural reversibility, as validated by X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Based on -axis changes during high-voltage operation, a quantitative method for assessing [PO] distortion is proposed and confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The optimized NFPP-0.15Cr exhibits exceptional rate performance (91.74 mAh g at 50C), long-term cycling stability (88.81% capacity retention after 10,000 cycles at 50C), and wide temperature tolerance (-40 to 60 °C). This study provides a strategic approach for designing high-performance iron-based mixed phosphate cathodes, advancing their practical application in sodium-ion batteries.

The reaction of a hydrated cobalt(II) perchlorate salt with the rigid tripodal ligand, tris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl) phosphine oxide, (O)P(3,5-DMPz)3, results in selective in situ hydrolysis of a P‒N bond affording a neutral mononuclear Co(II) complex, [Co{(O)P(O)(3,5-DMP)2}2] (1Co(II)). The X-ray crystal structure of 1Co(II) shows that it is formed by the coordination of two N2O-tripodal (O)P(O)(3,5-DMPz)2 ligands, leading to a CoIIN4O2 coordination sphere with an elongated pseudo-trigonal antiprismatic geometry. The analysis of the dc magnetic data revealed that this compound shows a strong easy-axis magnetic anisotropy with D = ‒45.

Accurate structural and rovibrational parameters of hydroxyacetone, CH-CO-CHOH, are computed using highly correlated ab initio methods (CCSD(T)-F12), second order perturbation theory, and a variational procedure of reduced dimensionality, contemplating the interconversion of the conformers by internal rotation at low temperatures. Hydroxyacetone presents four different stable geometries. The preferred one, whose stability is prominent, is a quasi-planar structure slightly distorted due to the formation of an intramolecular hydrogen bond involving the OH hydrogen and the C=O oxygen atom.

In the field of control, many approaches have been used to control generators, where indirect vector control (IVC) is considered one of the most prominent of these approaches due to its many advantages. This approach has a fast response time (RT) and is quite easy to realize. However, its reliance on traditional controllers makes this approach less efficient and less effective if the system parameters change.

Categorizing a population into different income classes is important for creating effective policies and analyzing markets. Our study develops a statistical method based on a nationwide survey of income distribution. We use these data to create a cumulative distribution function with a metalogistic distribution and its probability density function.
