Functionalizing aromatic compounds with optical cycling centres

Molecular design principles provide guidelines for augmenting a molecule with a smaller group of atoms to realize a desired property or function. Here, we demonstrate that these concepts can be used to create an optical cycling centre, the Ca(I)–O unit, that can be attached to a number of aromatic ligands, enabling the scattering of many photons from the resulting molecules without changing the molecular vibrational state. Such capability plays a central role in quantum state preparation and measurement, as well as laser cooling and trapping, and is therefore a prerequisite for many quantum science and technology applications. We provide further molecular design principles that indicate the ability to optimize and expand this work to an even broader class of molecules. This represents a great step towards a quantum functional group, which may serve as a generic qubit moiety that can be attached to a wide range of molecular structures and surfaces.

Designing Moderately‐Solvating Electrolytes for High‐Performance Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

New electrolytes are critical for high‐energy lithium (Li)–sulfur (S) batteries (LSBs) to ensure their stability against Li metal anode and polysulfides (PSs) shuttling which hinder the large‐scale application of LSBs. In this study, the design principle of moderately solvating electrolytes (MSEs) for LSBs is demonstrated by using a multiple‐solvent system comprising of a highly solvating solvent, a weakly solvating solvent, and a non‐solvating solvent to create a well‐balanced electrolyte system. This resulting electrolyte significantly improves the cycle life of LSBs, achieving 300 cycles, which is twice as long as that of similar cells with the conventional electrolyte and it also ensures stable calendar life for at least seven months. The optimal MSE forms robust passivation layers enhancing the structural integrity of both S and Li metal electrodes after cycling. These virtues effectively hinder parasitic side reactions and self‐discharge behavior of LSBs. This electrolyte design principle is versatile and can be applied to other battery chemistries, providing a potential path toward the development of a more efficient and stable battery system. By addressing key challenges such as the instability of electrodes and shuttling of polysulfides, this electrolyte approach offers promising solutions for advancing LSB technology.

Nanostructures for Electrical Energy Storage (NEES) (2020 Final Technical Report)

Nanostructures for Electrical Energy Storage (NEES, www.efrc.umd.edu) was an Energy Frontier Research Center supported by the DOE Office of Science, Basic Energy Sciences, from 8/1/2009 to 7/31/2020. Led by the University of Maryland, NEES enjoyed extensive collaborations with its funded partners, including two DOE Laboratories and six universities. The NEES vision has been to reveal a set of scientific insights and design principles that can underpin a next-generation electrical energy storage approach, building on advances in nanoscale science and technology to achieve simultaneous high power and high energy over extended charge/discharge cycling. The vision is motivated by the recognition that scaling into the nano regime opens the door to new physical phenomena and that the tools enlisted in nanoscale research provide major new opportunities for the synthesis not only of materials at molecular scale but for structures at nano scale and above. NEES has translated this vision into its research program based on two observations. First, while the behavior of ions and electrons in electrolytes and in electrode materials is crucial to electrical energy storage (or more appropriately electrochemical energy storage), it is the transport of ion and electron charge between different structural components of a storage device that ultimately determine its performance. With it well recognized that the choice of electrode materials typically constrain ion transport kinetics as well as maximum ion concentration, the search for better electrode materials has been a primary driver of battery research. At the same time the synthesis of electrodes is typically based on aggregation of particles with varying size, shape, and orientation in the electrode. Together with the presence of additional materials to impart electrical conductivity and cohesion to the composite electrode, change in electrode materials is necessarily accompanied by structural changes at the nano/micro scale that are difficult to categorize and manage. From the beginning, NEES’ vision has been to create and study simpler, highly controlled spatial arrangements of known materials as battery components (electrodes, current collectors, and electrolyte) and to understand how design and structure above the molecular scale determines the energy storage performance available from known materials. Second, advances in nanoscience dramatically expanded the portfolio of synthesis methods, structural motifs, and new phenomena available for research. Some of these gave rapid access to new building blocks at the deep nanoscale (e.g., carbon nanotubes grown by self-assembly, nanoscale arrays formed by electrochemical self-alignment, monolayer films controlled by self-limiting reaction). Such advances served as the enabler for the NEES vision to be pursued experimentally through study of 3D structures created and controlled at the nano, micro, and meso scales. Here, we use meso as in the BES MESO Report, implying not only intermediate or varying length scales, but very much the way behavior is influenced by other factors including aggregation of nanocomponents at different densities and spatial configurations, statistical variations in the aggregates, hierarchical architectures in which they can be assembled, or local 3D configurations that result from the architectures. Over its life cycle, NEES has pursued two overarching goals: (1) to understand the scientific fundamentals of electrochemical storage from the nanoscale to the mesoscale; and (2) to create and learn from innovative, controlled, heterogeneous nanostructures, where such nanostructures can enable the first goal and serve as models for future paradigms in energy storage. Specific goals have included: Synthesize heterogeneous nanostructures comprised of multiple materials arranged in controlled fashion and characterize their behavior; Demonstrate and elucidate design principles for achieving simultaneous high power and high energy; Develop materials processes which enable precision control of thin layers and 3D structures; Investigate the impact of artificial interphases on electrode stability during ion insertion/deinsertion; Create dense arrays of nanostructures to understand how the architecture of these assemblies, along with nanostructure design, influences energy storage behavior at the mesoscale; Identify and understand the consequences of nanoconfinement and local inhomogeneities in 3D mesoscale arrays; Develop and apply computational models to stimulate, guide and interpret experiments.

Structural design strategies for superionic sodium halide solid electrolytes

We report sodium all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) with superionic solid electrolytes (SEs) show substantial potential for large-scale energy-storage applications. Recently, lithium halide SEs have attracted attention owing to their potential compatibility with high-voltage cathode materials and high ionic conductivity. Although sodium halide SEs are believed to exhibit good electrochemical stability, very few compounds have been reported. This study provides design principles for superionic sodium halide SEs through systematic theoretical investigations of Na 3 MX 6 (X = Cl, Br, and I). The Na 3 MX 6 structures depend on the types and sizes of M and X: Na 3 MCl 6 and Na 3 MBr 6 prefer the $P\bar{3}$1c, P2 1 /n and $R\bar{3}$ phases, whereas Na 3 MI 6 prefers the C2/m phase. The Na 3 MI 6 C2/m phase is found to exhibit reasonably high ionic conductivity (~10 -4 S/cm -1 ) and anion mixing with Br further improve Na-ion migration, leading to an even higher ionic conductivity (~10 -3 S/cm -1 ) for Na 3 MBr 3 I 3 . The material design principles in this study provide fundamental guidelines for the development of superionic Na halide SEs for high-voltage Na ASSBs

Absolute band-edge energies are over-emphasized in the design of photoelectrochemical materials

The absolute band-edge potentials of semiconductors, i.e., the conduction-band minimum, valence-band maximum, and their relative positions to solution redox potentials, are often invoked as design principles for photoelectrochemical (PEC) devices, especially for particulate photocatalysts. Here we show that reliance on these criteria is not necessary and limits the exploration of materials that will advance the fields of photoelectrochemistry, photochemistry, and photocatalysis. We discuss how i) band-edge energies are not singular parameters and instead shift with pH, electrolyte type, and surface chemistry; ii) the free energy of electrons and holes in comparison to that of solution redox couples dictates overall reaction spontaneity and thus reactivity; and iii) favorable charge-transfer kinetics can occur even when the relevant electrolyte redox potential(s) appear ‘outside’ the bandgap, enabled by the inversion or accumulation of electronic charge at the semiconductor surface. As a result, this discussion informs design principles for photocatalyst systems engineering for both one-electron redox reactions as well as for more complex multi-electron transfer reactions (e.g, H 2 evolution, H 2 O oxidation, CO 2 reduction).

Two Artificial Leaf Architectures for Solar Formate Production From CO 2 and H 2 O

Sunlight-powered artificial leaves for the production of formate from CO 2 are an attractive route to solar fuels, yet existing solar formate devices remain low in performance, and their architecture and material choices are underexplored. Herein, we report the fabrication of two distinct fully integrated, self-standing solar formate device architectures and elucidate the underlying design principles and material selection strategies. The first architecture integrates a Si photocathode with a BiVO 4 photoanode and utilizes a highly active Pd catalyst for CO 2 reduction. It represents the first artificial leaf device comprising two photoelectrodes (excluding photovoltaic [PV]-biased electrodes) for effective formate production under single-beam illumination. The second architecture employs a dark cathode and a dark anode driven by a 4-junction perovskite solar cell and uses a highly stable Bi catalyst for CO 2 reduction. This device delivers a record-high formate production rate of 174 µmol h −1 with a remarkable solar-to-formate energy efficiency of 2% among all artificial leaf devices reported to date. Finally, these results demonstrate the feasibility and outline the design principles of both PV-free and PV-assisted device architectures in solar fuel production.

In Situ X-ray Scattering Reveals Coarsening Rates of Superlattices Self-Assembled from Electrostatically Stabilized Metal Nanocrystals Depend Nonmonotonically on Driving Force

Self-assembly of colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) into superlattices (SLs) is an appealing strategy to design hierarchically organized materials with promising functionalities. Mechanistic studies are still needed to uncover the design principles for SL self-assembly, but such studies have been difficult to perform due to the fast time and short length scales of NC systems. To address this challenge, we developed an apparatus to directly measure the evolving phases in situ and in real time of an electrostatically stabilized Au NC solution before, during, and after it is quenched to form SLs using small-angle X-ray scattering. By developing a quantitative model, we fit the time-dependent scattering patterns to obtain the phase diagram of the system and the kinetics of the colloidal and SL phases as a function of varying quench conditions. The extracted phase diagram is consistent with particles whose interactions are short in range relative to their diameter. We find the degree of SL order is primarily determined by fast (subsecond) initial nucleation and growth kinetics, while coarsening at later times depends nonmonotonically on the driving force for self-assembly. We validate these results by direct comparison with simulations and use them to suggest dynamic design principles to optimize the crystallinity within a finite time window. The combination of this measurement methodology, quantitative analysis, and simulation should be generalizable to elucidate and better control the microscopic self-assembly pathways of a wide range of bottom-up assembled systems and architectures.

Luminescent Zr Complexes with Long-lived Intraligand Charge Transfer Excited States

Understanding and establishing design principles to tune the excited states of earth-abundant sensitizers is crucial for identifying new photosensitizers for sustainable technological advancements. Here, we report a series of three bis Zr (IV) complexes of tridentate, dianionic ligands incorporating two phenoxide donors and aza arene acceptors of increasing electron affinity (pyridine < pyrimidine < pyrazine ) that are air and water-stable. These complexes emit via thermally assisted delayed fluorescence from an intraligand charge transfer excited state with varying metal contributions. The electronic structural changes from different acceptors vary the excited state character and the photophysical properties significantly between the complexes. The variation in photophysics that includes emission lifetime (76 μs to 265 ns), intersystem crossing (ISC) lifetime ( 390 – 290 ps), and the energy difference between the singlet and triplet excited states (∆EST. 170 -100 meV). We observe solvent-independent ISC rates when the excited state has metal contributions (acceptor = pyridine), and the ISC rates vary significantly with solvent polarity when the excited state is an intra-ligand charge transfer state (acceptor = pyrimidine and pyrazine). Transient absorption measurements provided the basis spectra and verified the metal contribution in the excited state. This work provides a basis for developing new sensitizers based on Zr (IV) by providing design principles that can be used to modulate the character of the excited state and its photophysics.

Site-Selective Modification of Lanthanum Oxychloride to Modulate Halide-Ion Conduction

Design principles for solid-state halide-ion conduction remain poorly defined despite the increasing importance of halide ions as charge carriers in a variety of energy storage and electrochemical computing technologies. Here, we employ a siteselective modification strategy in which aliovalent cations are preferentially introduced at the La 3+ crystallographic site of LaOCl in the 2c Wyckoff position, enabling controlled generation of chloride vacancies and modification of lattice dynamics to enhance chloride-ion conductivity. Aliovalent substitution of La 3+ with Mg 2+ , Ca 2+ , and Sr 2+ generates charge-compensating Cl vacancies while preserving the matlockite crystal structure. X-ray excited optical luminescence measurements with Dy 3+ as a reporter chromophore evidence vacancy-derived midgap electronic states and an extended energy range of radiation-less Auger electron emission corresponding to substantial modification of electronic structure and local electrostatic potentials. Ca alloying at 8−10 at. % increases the chloride-ion conductivity by three- to 4 orders of magnitude as compared to unalloyed LaOCl, whereas comparable amounts of Sr- and Mg-alloying in LaOCl imbue less pronounced conductivity enhancements. Temperature-dependent Raman spectroscopy measurements reveal that Ca- and Sr-alloying substantially soften the La−Cl sublattice and yield a more compliant crystal lattice that can deform to accommodate Cl-ion migration. Structure solutions derived from Rietveld refinements to powder Xray diffraction reveal larger O−La−Cl bond-angle deviations and enhanced out-of-plane cation displacements for Ca- and Sr-alloyed compositions as compared to Mg-alloyed LaOCl. Such local distortions enhance chloride-ion mobility by reshaping and flattening vacancy migration energy landscapes and by modulating lattice dynamics governing anion conduction. We further illustrate that coalloying of Ca with Mg and Sr induces a nonmonotonic conductivity−defect stoichiometry relationship that can be rationalized based on cooperative interactions. Together, these results establish site-selective aliovalent alloying of LaOCl as an effective route to halide-ion solid electrolytes and provide broadly generalizable design principles for site-selective modification to induce vacancy formation and lattice softening to engender facile anion transport

Metal–Carbodithioate-Based 3D Semiconducting Metal–Organic Framework: Porous Optoelectronic Material for Energy Conversion

Solar energy conversion requires the working compositions to generate photoinduced charges with high potential and the ability to deliver charges to the catalytic sites and/or external electrode. These two properties are typically at odds with each other and call for new molecular materials with sufficient conjugation to improve charge conductivity but not as much conjugation as to overly compromise the optical band gap. In this work, we developed a semiconducting metal-organic framework (MOF) prepared explicitly through metal-carbodithioate"(-CS 2 ) n M" linkage chemistry, entailing augmented metal-linker electronic communication. The stronger ligand field and higher covalent character of metal-carbodithioate linkages-when combined with spirofluorene-derived organic struts and nickel-(II) ion-based nodes-provided a stable, semiconducting 3D-porous MOF, Spiro-CS 2 Ni. This MOF lacks long-range ordering and is defined by a flexible structure with non-aggregated building units, as suggested by reverse Monte Carlo simulations of the pair distribution function obtained from total scattering experiments. The solvent-removed "closed pore"material recorded a Brunauer-Emmett-Teller area of similar to 400m 2 /g, where the "open pore" form possesses90 wt % solvent-accessible porosity. Electrochemical measurements suggest that Spiro-CS 2 Ni possesses a band gap of 1.57 eV(sigma = 10 -7 S/cm at -1.3 V bias potential),which can be further improved by manipulating the d-electron configuration through an axial coordination (ligand/substrate), the latter of which indicates usefulness as an electrocatalyst and/or a photoelectrocatalyst(upon substrate binding). Transient-absorption spectroscopy reveals a long-lived photo-generated charge-transfer state (τ CR = 6.5 mu s) capable of chemical transformation under a biased voltage. Spiro-CS 2 Ni can endure a compelling range of pH(1-12 for weeks) and hours of electrochemical and photoelectrochemical conditions in the presence of water and organic acids. We believe this work provides crucial design principles for low-density, porous,light-energy-conversion materials.

Design and Principles of Linear Accelerators and Colliders." in Particle Physics Reference Library, pp. 295-336. Springer, Cham, 2020.

Linear accelerators (linacs) use alternating radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic fields to accelerate charged particles in a straight line. Linacs were invented about 95 years ago and have seen many significant technical innovations since. A wide range of particle beams have been accelerated with linacs including beams of electrons, positrons, protons, antiprotons, and heavy ions. Linac parameter possibilities include pulsed versus continuous wave, low and high beam powers, low and high repetition rates, low transverse emittance beams, short bunches with small energy spreads, and accelerated multiple bunches in a single pulse. The number of linacs around the world has grown tremendously with thousands of linacs in present use, many for medical therapy, in industry, and for research and development in a broad spectrum of scientific fields. Researchers have developed accelerators for scientific tools in their own right, being awarded several Nobel prizes. Moreover, linacs and particle accelerators in general have enabled many discovery level science experiments in related fields, resulting in many Nobel prizes as well.

Redefining Design for Remanufacturing: A Practical Methodology for Prioritizing Remanufacturing Design Rules

Products are often discarded when they fail or no longer meet user needs. These outcomes are frequently shaped by early design decisions. While remanufacturing offers a sustainable alternative by restoring products to like‐new condition, its potential is often limited by designs that do not consider remanufacturing from the outset. This research addresses that challenge by introducing a structured Design for Remanufacturing (DfRem) methodology and a CAD‐integrated tool to support real‐time design decisions. The DfRem framework introduces a new primary design function focused on preserving product functionality across its life cycle. It is supported by a fault tree that identifies failure modes that limit remanufacturing potential and a hierarchy of design principles including Prevent, Minimize, Relocate, Restore, and others. Each principle is linked to actionable design rules that help engineers reduce the need for remanufacturing or improve its efficiency when necessary. To operationalize this framework, we developed CAD plugins for Autodesk Inventor and PTC Creo. These tools use a state machine model to present prioritized design rules based on selected failure modes and user input. By embedding DfRem logic directly into widely used CAD environments, the tool enables engineers to make sustainability‐informed decisions without disrupting existing workflows. Furthermore, this approach highlights the critical role of design in enabling circular and resource‐efficient product development, making remanufacturing a more practical and accessible strategy during the early stages of product design.

Interfacial Effects on the Dielectric Properties of Elastomer Composites and Nanocomposites

Elastomer-based composites and nanocomposites are discussed, with the emphasis on the filler and interfacial effects on their dynamics, and the resulting manifestation in their macroscopic dielectric or mechanical response. Specifically, selected polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)/barium-titanate and styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR)/graphene oxide nanocomposites are discussed, as examples where controlled spatial distribution of filler (structured composites) gives rise to significantly different dielectric and thermomechanical behaviors. Also, ethylene–propylene–diene (EPDM)/carbon black (CB) composites are presented, as examples of systems that exhibit an abnormal temperature dependence of dielectric relaxation; and this response is discussed in the context of CB cluster polarization and quantified through a simple scaling model of the same. Finally, multi-filler EPDM/CB/ceramic elastomer nanocomposites are discussed, as examples of systems with antagonistic interfacial effects between conductive and dielectric fillers, as well as with strong interphase responses that can overwhelm the dielectric contributions from the fillers; in these systems, interphasial responses result in counter-intuitive dielectric behaviors and in strong deviations from standard design principles typically employed in the design of dielectric composite systems.

Heuristic Evaluation Methods Applied to a Predictive Maintenance Chatbot

The need for an accessible iterative approach for evaluating prospective artificial intelligence (AI)/ML based technologies in the nuclear industry is needed, given the nature of algorithms and rapid advancements. This paper explores existing heuristic design principles for user-centered design and evaluates them based on their relevancy and usefulness for evaluating AI/ ML based technologies. Researchers at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) have developed a machine learning software application called VIsualization for PrEdictive maintenance Recommendation (VIPER), which is used to help users understand and engage with the tool to learn more about work orders, data used, predictive maintenance, and machine learning (ML) algorithms. Early user research studies used to access VIPER’s technology readiness level have occurred; however, there is room for further improvement of the software through heuristic evaluations along with other methods and user testing. This work describes the applicability of heuristic evaluation methods and cognitive walkthroughs to help ensure human readiness for prospective AI/ ML based applications, using VIPER as a candidate use case. This work supports industry in ensuring that prospective AI/ML based technologies are usable and useful for plant personnel at nuclear power plants, ultimately leading to their safe, reliable, and efficient use.

Operational experience with the Proto-DUNE NP02 and NP04 large volume liquid argon cryostats and their cryogenic systems at CERN

The far Detector of the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) will be housed in several large volume (about 12.500 m$^{3}$) liquid argon cryostats. The design principle of these large cryostats, and of the cryogenic system belonging to them, are investigated through the design, construction and operation of a series of prototype installations.The Neutrino Platform 02 (NP02) and 04 (NP04) cryostats, placed at CERN, contain DUNE proto-type detectors, each of them housed in an about 600 m$^{3}$ liquid argon bath. These cryostats, based on the membrane cryostat principle, and their cryogenic systems have been designed according to the DUNE principle. Measurements performed in these test stands shall confirm the foreseen heat loads into the cryostat systems entering via its walls, via detector cabling and via the cold electronics, shall confirm the low temperature gradient over the active detector volume and shall certify the liquid argon purification principle.This paper introduces the requirements for the NP02 and NP04 cryostats and their cryogenic systems, describes the design principle applied to these two systems and gives an overview of the different modes in which the two systems have been operating. The experimental results are presented and discussed, and “lessons learned” for future installations are dawn.

Superior High-Temperature Strength in a Supersaturated Refractory High-Entropy Alloy

Refractory high-entropy alloys (RHEA) show promising applications at high temperatures. However, achieving high strengths at elevated temperatures above 1,173K is still challenging due to heat softening. Using intrinsic material characteristics as the alloy-design principles, a single-phase body-centered-cubic (BCC) CrMoNbV RHEA with high-temperature strengths (beyond 1,000 MPa at 1,273 K) is designed, superior to other reported RHEAs as well as conventional superalloys. The origin of the high-temperature strength is revealed by in-situ neutron scattering, transmission-electron microscopy, and first-principles calculations. The CrMoNbV’s elevated-temperature strength retention up to 1,273 K arises from its large atomic-size and elastic-modulus mismatches, the insensitive temperature dependence of elastic constants, and the dominance of non-screw character dislocations caused by the strong solute pinning, which makes the solid-solution strengthening pronounced. The alloy-design principles and the insights in this study pave the way to design RHEAs with outstanding high-temperature strength.
