RESUMO

Managing extensive-stage SCLC (ES-SCLC) has long been challenging for clinicians and oncologists due to its aggressive nature and poor prognosis. We report a case of a 41-year-old female with ES-SCLC who survived for six years, defying the disease's typically poor prognosis. Through a heavy treatment strategy involving chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy, the patient experienced robust responses and avoided distant metastasis, including brain involvement. The long-term survival case in SCLC highlights the need for further research into personalized strategies and prognostic biomarkers. This case holds significant value for both clinicians and researchers as it challenges the conventional strategies for ES-SCLC and sets the stage for future evidence-based studies aimed at extending survival in SCLC.

RESUMO

Current studies in the Li-battery field are focusing on building systems with higher energy density than ever before. The path toward this goal, however, should not ignore aspects such as safety, stability, and cycling life. These issues frequently originate from interfacial instability, and therefore, precise surface chemistry that allows for accurate control of material surface and interfaces is much in demand for advanced battery research. Molecular self-assembly as a surface chemistry tool is considered to surpass many conventional coating techniques due to its intrinsic merits such as spontaneous organization, molecular-scale uniformity, and structural diversity. Recent publications have demonstrated the power of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) in addressing pressing issues in the battery field such as the chemical stability of Li, but many more investigations are needed to fully explore the potential and impact of this technique on energy storage. This perspective is the first of its kind devoted to SAMs in batteries and related materials. Recent research progress on SAMs in batteries is reviewed and mainly falls in two categories, including the improvement of chemical stability and the regulation of nucleation in conversion electrode reactions. Future applications and consideration of SAMs in energy storage are discussed. We believe these summaries and outlooks are highly stimulative and may benefit future advancements in battery chemistry.

RESUMO

Lithium metal is regarded as the ultimate negative electrode material for secondary batteries due to its high energy density. However, it suffers from poor cycling stability because of its high reactivity with liquid electrolytes. Therefore, continuous efforts have been put into improving the cycling Coulombic efficiency (CE) to extend the lifespan of the lithium metal negative electrode. Herein, we report that using dual-salt additives of LiPF6 and LiNO3 in an ether solvent-based electrolyte can significantly improve the cycling stability and rate capability of a Li-carbon (Li-CNT) composite. As a result, an average cycling CE as high as 99.30% was obtained for the Li-CNT at a current density of 2.5 mA cm-2 and an negative electrode to positive electrode capacity (N/P) ratio of 2. The cycling stability and rate capability enhancement of the Li-CNT negative electrode could be attributed to the formation of a better solid electrolyte interphase layer that contains both inorganic components and organic polyether. The former component mainly originates from the decomposition of the LiNO3 additive, while the latter comes from the LiPF6-induced ring-opening polymerization of the ether solvent. This novel surface chemistry significantly improves the CE of Li negative electrode, revealing its importance for the practical application of lithium metal batteries.

RESUMO

Li metal is considered the most promising anode for high energy density secondary batteries due to its high theoretical capacity and low redox potential. However, lithium is prone to form dendrites which will not only cause internal short-circuits but also bring accumulation of "dead Li" and result in fast capacity decay, thus its large-scale application is challenging. In this work, we demonstrate that the commonly used metal corrosion inhibitor, benzotriazole (BTA), can be used to modify the Cu foil surface and guide homogeneous Li+ plating/stripping due to the lithiophilic nature of the N atom in the BTA molecule. As a result, the lithium plated on the BTA modified Cu (BTA-Cu) substrate is free of dendrites, and a Coulombic efficiency (CE) as high as 99.0% was achieved for Li+ plating/stripping on the BTA-Cu substrate at a current density of 1 mA/cm2. Furthermore, the BTA-Cu foil can be used as an anode to assemble an anode-free cell (BTA-Cu∥LFP), and ∼73.3% of the initial capacity can be obtained after 50 cycles. Last but not the least, a BTA-Cu@Li electrode prepared by plating of Li+ on the BTA-Cu substrate can serve as a stable Li anode in a BTA-Cu@Li∥LFP cell and display an average cycled CE of 98.5% at a depth of discharge (DOD) of 33%. This simple method of Li+ plating/stripping behavior regulation could inspire researchers on the development of highly stable lithium metal anodes for high energy density batteries.

RESUMO

Ni-rich layered oxides, such as LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 (NCM811), are considered as promising cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries due to their high energy density. However, Ni-rich layered oxides are prone to react with water and carbon dioxide in ambient air forming residual lithium compounds, resulting in deterioration of electrochemical performance and bringing a challenge to the cathode electrode preparation. In this work, we have, for the first time, demonstrated that the chemical stability of the NCM811 material in ambient air can be significantly enhanced by passivating the surface with a hydrophobic self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of octadecyl phosphate (OPA). As a result, the degradation reaction between the NCM811 material and ambient air and thus the electrochemical performance deterioration were significantly suppressed during ambient air exposure. Specifically, the 5C-rate capacity retention deterioration of the NCM811 sample during 14-day ambient air exposure has been decreased from 12 to 2% by OPA passivation. Furthermore, the 200-cycle capacity retention deterioration of the NCM811 sample after 7-day ambient air exposure has been improved from 23 to 0.7% by OPA passivation. These results are very important for the practical application of Ni-rich oxide since no need for controlling of humidity is required on the cathode manufacture; thus, the cost can be reduced. The concept of molecular self-assembly on the NCM811 material also open vast possibilities to design reagents for surface passivation of Ni-rich layered oxides.
