Abstract: Making a MAX phase material having a composition represented by V2PC includes combining a transition metal component, a phosphorus component, and a carbon component to yield a mixture, heating the mixture to yield a gel, and heating the gel to yield the MAX phase material. wherein the MAX material has a composition represented by V2PC. The transition metal component includes vanadium, the phosphorus component includes phosphoric acid, and the carbon component includes an organic compound. The MAX phase material can be in the form of a film, microsphere, or microwire.

Abstract: Systems and methods for application launch delays and notifications are disclosed. For example, a URL link to enable an application may be selected on a user device, and a user interface allowing the user to enable the application at a current time or at a future time may be displayed. When the user input indicates selection of the future time, a notification may be generated and provided to the user device and/or the voice interface device. The voice interface device may output the notification and, when user input indicates an intent to enable the application, the application may be enabled for use by the voice interface device.
