Abstract
Rough electrodeposition, uncontrolled parasitic side-reactions with electrolytes and dendrite-induced short-circuits have hindered development of advanced energy storage technologies based on metallic lithium, sodium and aluminium electrodes. Solid polymer electrolytes and nanoparticle-polymer composites have shown promise as candidates to suppress lithium dendrite growth, but the challenge of simultaneously maintaining high mechanical strength and high ionic conductivity at room temperature has so far been unmet in these materials. Here we report a facile and scalable method of fabricating tough, freestanding membranes that combine the best attributes of solid polymers, nanocomposites and gel-polymer electrolytes. Hairy nanoparticles are employed as multifunctional nodes for polymer crosslinking, which produces mechanically robust membranes that are exceptionally effective in inhibiting dendrite growth in a lithium metal battery. The membranes are also reported to enable stable cycling of lithium batteries paired with conventional intercalating cathodes. Our findings appear to provide an important step towards room-temperature dendrite-free batteries. There is intensive research effort in suppressing lithium dendrite growth in lithium batteries. Here, the authors report the use of a crosslinked nanoparticle-polymer composite membrane with high mechanical strength and ionic conductivity which enables stable cycling of lithium metal batteries.

Abstract
A DFT-based molecular model for imidazolium-silica-based nanoparticle networks (INNs) is presented. The INNs were synthesized and characterized by using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), NMR spectroscopy, and theoretical ab initio calculations. (11)B and (31)P HETCOR CP MAS experiments were recorded. Calculated (19)F NMR spectroscopy results, combined with the calculated anion-imidazolium (IM) distances, predicted the IM chain density in the INN, which was also confirmed from thermogravimetric analysis/mass spectrometry results. The presence of water molecules trapped between the nanoparticles is also suggested. First considerations on possible π-π stacking between the IM rings are presented. The predicted electronic properties confirm the photoluminescence emissions in the correct spectral domain.

Abstract
Metal oxides play a key role in many emerging applications in renewable energy, such as dye-sensitized solar cells and photocatalysts. Because the separation of charge can often be facilitated at junctions between different materials, there is great interest in the formation of heterojunctions between metal oxides. Here, we demonstrate use of the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction, widely referred to as "click" chemistry, to chemically assemble photoactive heterojunctions between metal oxide nanoparticles, using WO(3) and TiO(2) as a model system. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy verify the nature and selectivity of the chemical linkages, while scanning electron microscopy reveals that the TiO(2) nanoparticles form a high-density, conformal coating on the larger WO(3) nanoparticles. Time-resolved surface photoresponse measurements show that the resulting dyadic structures support photoactivated charge transfer, while measurements of the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue show that chemical grafting of TiO(2) nanoparticles to WO(3) increases the photocatalytic activity compared with the bare WO(3) film.

Abstract
Titania nanoparticle networks were synthesized by the reaction between imidazole and alkyl halide functionalized anatase nanoparticles. The reaction produced imidazolium bridging units between the nanoparticles that were observed by the means of CP MAS (15)N NMR spectroscopy. The porous characteristics of the obtained nanoparticle network were investigated with nitrogen sorption experiments. From these experiments, a high surface area originating from small mesopores was observed. These results were confirmed by small-angle X-ray diffraction experiments.

Abstract
Recently we published the synthesis of new hybrid materials, ionic silica nanoparticles networks (ISNN), made of silica nanoparticles covalently connected by organic bridging ligands containing imidazolium units owing to a "click-chemistry-like" reaction. Among other techniques small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) experiments were carried out to get a better picture of the network extension. It turned out that the short-range order in ISNN materials was strongly influenced by the rigidity of the bridging ligand, while the position of the short-range order peaks confirmed the successful linking of the bridging ligands. The photoluminescence experiments reported in this communication revealed strongly enhanced emission in the hybrid material in comparison with neat imidazolium salts. Moreover the shift of the emission maximum toward longer wavelengths, obtained when varying the aromatic ring content of the bridging ligand, suggested the existence of strong π-π stacking in the hybrid material. Experiments revealed a stronger luminescence in those samples exhibiting the higher extent of short-range order in SAXS.
