Abstract: Disclosed is a densified cell assembly and methods for preparing the same. In one embodiment, an isostatic press is applied to a bag which contains a plate and two elastic substrates enveloping a cell pouch, wherein one or more tabs are extended from the cell pouch, wherein the cell pouch accommodates a cell stack comprising one or more electrode layers and one or more electrolyte layers. In one embodiment, the tabs are not damaged or disconnected from the cell pouch due to compression.

Abstract: A cell assembly has a plurality of first electrodes, a plurality of second electrodes and a plurality of solid electrolyte layers. The solid electrolyte layers have a protrusion in at least one of the solid electrolyte layers. The protrusion is aligned with a first electrode tab of one of the first electrodes. The folding of the first electrode tabs causes the protrusions to be positioned to separate the first electrode tabs from the second electrodes, thus preventing short circuit between the first electrode tabs and second electrodes. In one aspect, the disclosure provides an all solid-state battery comprising one or more anodes, one or more cathodes and one or more solid electrolyte layers with a protrusion. Also disclosed is a method for preparing same.

Abstract: A series of thermally stable and highly luminescent cyclometalated tetradentate ligand-containing gold(III) compounds was designed and synthesized. The cyclometalated tetradentate ligand-containing gold(III) compounds can be used as light-emitting material for fabrication of light-emitting devices. The cyclometalated tetradentate ligand-containing gold(III) compounds can be deposited as a layer or a component of a layer using a solution-processing technique or a vacuum deposition process. The cyclometalated tetradentate ligand-containing gold(III) compounds are robust and can provide electroluminescence with high efficiency and brightness. More importantly, the vacuum-deposited OLEDs demonstrate long operational stabilities with half-lifetime of over 29,700 hours at 100 cd m?2.

Abstract: A novel class of gold(III) compounds containing cyclometalated tridentate ligand and one aryl auxiliary ligand, both coordinated to a gold(III) metal center. (a) X is nitrogen or carbon; (b) Y and Z are independently nitrogen or carbon; (c) A is cyclic structure (derivative) of pyridine, quinoline, isoquinoline or phenyl group; (d) B and C are independently cyclic structures (derivatives) of pyridine, quinoline, isoquinoline or phenyl groups; (e) B and C can be identical or non-identical, with the proviso that both B and C are not 4-tert-butylbenzene; (f) R? is a substituted carbon, nitrogen, oxygen or sulfur donor ligand attached to the gold atom; (g) n is zero, a positive integer or a negative integer. wherein R? is selected from, but not limited to, aryl, substituted aryl, heteroaryl, substituted heteroaryl, heterocyclic aryl and substituted heterocyclic aryl, alkoxy, aryloxy, amide, thiolate, sulfonate, phosphide, fluoride, chloride, bromide, iodide, cyanate, thiocyanate or cyanide.
