Conventional lithium ion batteries work by storing charge through redox changes involving cations. However the storage capacity is limited by the redox capacity of tradition metal ions in the cathode. Newer lithium-rich cathodes on the other hand are able to exceed this limit, leading researchers to believe that the anion must be playing a role. However, the mechanism of behavio had yet to be experimentally verified.

It is estimated it will cost £117 bn and take more than 100 years to deal with the UK’s legacy of radioactively contaminated waste materials from our nuclear past. This waste includes 2.5 million tons of cementitious materials from power stations: decontamination of this waste greatly reduces its volume and reduces disposal costs enormously and understanding the chemical speciation of radionuclides in the waste is key to optimising decontamination now, and planning for new facilities in the ...
