Shock wave induced reversible phase transition from crystalline to semi-crystalline states of lithium sulfate monohydrate

Switchable crystal–amorphous states of NiSO4·6H2O induced by a Reddy tube

“…38 Such significant modifications reflected in the internal Raman modes indicate the changes that have occurred in the atomic bonding networks in the crystalline specimen and the resultant disordered systems are due to the rapid enhancement of the orientational and rotational disorder of SO 4 ions, and similar results have been found in samples of structurally disordered states under shocked conditions. 39,40 Furthermore, as can be seen in Fig. 4b, the control sample's lattice Raman band located at 201 cm À1 has a slightly higher value, as found in the literature.…”

Acoustic shock wave-induced phase transition in indium selenide: tuning band gap energy for solar cell applications

“…Shock-induced lattice disorders are responsible for the formation of the new peaks. 59,60 The peak at 103 cm −1 shifts toward higher wavenumbers following the application of 100, 200, 300, and 400 shock pulses because the shocks produce surface tension and surface contraction, resulting in lattice contractions. As a result, the peaks shift toward higher wavenumbers, inducing blueshift.…”

Lithium Sulfite Enhances Cycle Performance of All-Solid-State Batteries with Li2S-Based Positive Electrode Materials

“…38−43 Li 2 SO 4 has been incorporated into Li 2 S-based positive electrodes to create nanoscale lithium ionic pathways, resulting in a high capacity. 34,44,45 As the composition of lithium sulfite (Li 2 SO 3 ) is similar to that of Li 2 SO 4 , it is expected to also have beneficial effects on cell performance. However, to the best of our knowledge, Li 2 SO 3 has not previously been structurally and electrochemically investigated in the solid state and has only been detected as a decomposed species.…”
