Abstract
The purpose of this review is to present advances and applications of 33S NMR, which is an underutilized NMR spectroscopy. Experimental NMR aspects in solution, chemical shift tendencies, and quadrupolar relaxation parameters will be briefly summarized. Emphasis will be given to advances and applications in the emerging fields of solid-state and DFT computations of 33S NMR parameters. The majority of the examples were taken from the last twenty years and were selected on the basis of their importance to provide structural, electronic, and dynamic information that is difficult to obtain by other techniques.

Abstract
The transition metal trichalcogenides (TMTCs) are quasi-one-dimensional (1D) MX3-type van der Waals layered semiconductors, where M is a transition metal element of groups IV and V, and X indicates chalcogen element. Due to the unique quasi-1D crystalline structures, they possess several novel electrical properties such as variable bandgaps, charge density waves, and superconductivity, and highly anisotropic optical, thermoelectric, and magnetic properties. The study of TMTCs plays an essential role in the 1D quantum materials field, enabling new opportunities in the material research dimension. Currently, tremendous progress in both materials and solid-state devices has been made, demonstrating promising applications in the realization of nanoelectronic devices. This review provides a comprehensive overview to survey the state of the art in materials, devices, and applications based on TMTCs. Firstly, the symbolic structure, current primary synthesis methods, and physical properties of TMTCs have been discussed. Secondly, examples of TMTC applications in various fields are presented, such as photodetectors, energy storage devices, catalysts, and sensors. Finally, we give an overview of the opportunities and future perspectives for the research of TMTCs, as well as the challenges in both basic research and practical applications.

Abstract
Amorphous transition-metal polysulfides are promising positive electrode materials for next-generation rechargeable lithium-ion batteries because of their high theoretical capacities. In this study, sulfur anion redox during lithiation of amorphous TiS4 (a-TiS4) was investigated by using experimental and theoretical methods. It was found that a-TiS4 has a variety of sulfur valence states such as S2-, S-, and Sδ-. The S2- species became the main component in the Li4TiS4 composition, indicating that sulfur is a redox-active element up to this composition. The simulated a-TiS4 structure changed gradually by lithium accommodation to form a-Li4TiS4: S-S bonds in the disulfide units and polysulfide chains were broken. Bader charge analysis suggested that the average S valency decreased drastically. Moreover, deep lithiation of a-TiS4 provided a conversion reaction to metallic Ti and Li2S, with a high practical capacity of ∼1000 mAh g-1 when a lower cutoff voltage was applied.

Abstract
An overview is presented of recent progress in the solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) observation of low-γ nuclei, with a focus on applications to inorganic materials. The technological and methodological advances in the last 20 years, which have underpinned the increased accessibility of low-γ nuclei for study by solid-state NMR techniques, are summarised, including improvements in hardware, pulse sequences and associated computational methods (e.g., first principles calculations and spectral simulation). Some of the key initial observations from inorganic materials of these nuclei are highlighted along with some recent (most within the last 10 years) illustrations of their application to such materials. A summary of other recent reviews of the study of low-γ nuclei by solid-state NMR is provided so that a comprehensive understanding of what has been achieved to date is available.

Site-Specific Sodiation Mechanisms of Selenium in Microporous Carbon Host. NANO LETTERS 2020; 20:918-928.

Abstract
We combined advanced TEM (HRTEM, HAADF, EELS) with solid-state (SS)MAS NMR and electroanalytical techniques (GITT, etc.) to understand the site-specific sodiation of selenium (Se) encapsulated in a nanoporous carbon host. The architecture employed is representative of a wide number of electrochemically stable and rate-capable Se-based sodium metal battery (SMB) cathodes. SSNMR demonstrates that during the first sodiation, the Se chains are progressively cut to form an amorphous mixture of polyselenides of varying lengths, with no evidence for discrete phase transitions during sodiation. It also shows that Se nearest the carbon pore surface is sodiated first, leading to the formation of a core-shell compositional profile. HRTEM indicates that the vast majority of the pore-confined Se is amorphous, with the only localized presence of nanocrystalline equilibrium Na2Se2 (hcp) and Na2Se (fcc). A nanoscale fracture of terminally sodiated Na-Se is observed by HAADF, with SSNMR, indicating a physical separation of some Se from the carbon host after the first cycle. GITT reveals a 3-fold increase in Na+ diffusivity at cycle 2, which may be explained by the creation of extra interfaces. These combined findings highlight the complex phenomenology of electrochemical phase transformations in nanoconfined materials, which may profoundly differ from their "free" counterparts.
