DOI: 10.1002/aenm.202504973
Abstract: Pitch‐based hard carbons (PHCs) emerge as cost‐efficient anodes for sodium‐ion batteries, yet suffer from inherent trade‐offs among reversible capacity, initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE), and tap density. Herein, this trilemma is resolved via mass‐transfer‐enhanced pre‐oxidation strategy… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00405-019-05502-9
Abstract: Purpose Cochlear implant (CI) users show great difficulty for understanding speech in noise and this fact may partly stem from their poor low-frequency (LF) pitch perception and temporal fine structure (TFS) processing. Clinical assessment of… read more here.
