    Abstract: A metal-based battery includes at least one metal electrode immersed within an electrolyte that includes: (1) an aprotic solvent; (2) a simple halogen containing material; and (3) optionally a metal salt that includes a complex halogen containing anion. The simple halogen containing material may include a metal halide salt that includes a metal cation selected from the group including but not limited to lithium and sodium metal cations. The metal halide salt may also include a halide anion selected from the group consisting of fluoride, chloride, bromide and iodide halide anions. The use of the metal halide salt within the metal-based battery provides enhanced cycling ability within the metal-based battery. Also contemplated are additional simple halogen containing material additives that may enhance cycling performance of a metal-based battery.

    Abstract: A sandwich-type laminated composite for a battery separator that may be infused with a battery electrolyte uses a corer layer comprising a first nanoporous material to which is laminated upon opposite sides a pair of cladding layers comprising a second nanoporous materials different from the first nanoporous material and comprising a polymer material. A particular construction uses a nanoporous alumina core material and a pair of PVDF-FEP cladding layers to provide the sandwich-type laminated composite.

    Abstract: Hybrid materials and nanocomposite materials, methods of making and using such materials. The nanoparticles of the nanocomposite are formed in situ during pyrolysis of a hybrid material comprising metal precursor compounds. The nanoparticles are uniformly distributed in the carbon matrix of the nanocomposite. The nanocomposite materials can be used in devices such as, for example, electrodes and on-chip inductors.

    Abstract: Methods of making a textured metal or a textured metal layer, anodes, and devices. In various examples, a method comprises rolling a metal; and folding the rolled metal. In various examples, the rolling and folding are repeated a desired number of times. In various examples, the rolling(s) result(s) in severe plastic deformation (SPD) of the metal, anisotropic deformation(s), or alignment of the metal, or any combination thereof. In various examples, the metal comprises potassium, sodium, lithium, zinc, magnesium, aluminum, calcium, or the like, or any combination thereof. In various examples, an anode comprises a textured metal. In various examples, the textured metal epitaxially templates deposition of the reduced form of metal-ions of a metal ion-conducting electrochemical device. In various examples, a device, such as, for example, a battery (e.g., an ion-conducting battery), a supercapacitor, a fuel cell, an electrolyzer, or an electrolytic cell, comprises one or more of the anode(s).
