Abstract: A multi-layer current collector for an anodeless lithium-metal cells is described. The multi-layer current collector includes a current collector layer, a seed layer disposed on the current collector layer, and a protective shield layer disposed on the current collector layer. When incorporated into a Li-metal cell along with an electrolyte, charging of the cell leads to Li ion transferring through the shield layer, saturating the seed layer and ultimately forming a new Li metal layer between the shield layer and the lithiated seed layer. Discharging the cell reverses this process and results in disappearance of the Li metal layer and lithium passes back through the shield layer and into the electrolyte. The lithium in the seed layer also passes back into the electrolyte such that the current collector reverts to its initial structure prior to charging.

Abstract: A resilient battery cell is provided that includes an electrode and an electrolyte hermetically sealed within a pouch. The pouch includes layers of heat-resistant and resilient materials coupled together by a thermoplastic seal. A conductive tab electrically coupled to the electrode and for electrically coupling of the battery cell to other cells and/or a battery terminal extends through and is hermetically sealed by the sealant. The battery cell may further include supplemental layers external the pouch for providing structural integrity, a vapor barrier, improved fire safety, and other benefits.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a plasma system for practicing various methods of synthesizing solid-state electrolyte materials and precursors for solid-state electrolyte materials.

Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, techniques and systems for capturing, storing, editing, and distributing synchronized data captured from multiple sensing devices. The data may be captured from the multiple sensing devices located a multiple locations. The data may be synchronized by instructing a capture card from each sensing device to simultaneously record the data provided by the multiple sensing devices. The synchronized data may be provided to other electronic devices for replay and/or provided to a data hosting service for editing.

Abstract: Various technologies and techniques are disclosed for providing a table of contents for a document viewer application. A document viewer application is provided that can display a document that has multiple pages of content. Upon receiving a selection from the user to access a table of contents for the document, a table of contents is displayed that contains a representation of at least some of the pages of content in a manner that is overlaid on top of a current position in the document. A navigation feature allows a user to navigate through the table of contents while retaining the current position in the document. A preview size adjustment feature allows the user to adjust a size of the representation of the pages of content for the document.
