Abstract: An all solid-state Li metal microbattery is fabricated by directed assembly-based printing of nanoparticles on a substrate, which facilitates the fabrication of all battery components, including cathode, anode, and solid electrolyte at microscale dimensions and without the need for costly and complex fabrication techniques. The porous cathode material allows polymer electrolyte to be intercalated within the cathode, resulting in a cathode-supported electrolyte membrane which enhances battery performance through superior ionic transport, low interfacial resistance between the electrolyte and the cathode, and providing electronic pathways through the cathode framework.

Abstract: Provided are an offshore floating light energy storage integrated charging station system and an operation control method thereof. The system includes a triangular floating floater structure, a control unit mounted on the floating floater structure, an energy storage tank arranged on the floating floater structure, an energy storage unit mounted in the energy storage tank, and a photovoltaic electricity generation unit paved on the energy storage tank. A battery pack in the energy storage tank on each triangular floater is one energy storage unit. The energy storage unit can independently supply electricity or charge the vessels when the photovoltaic electricity generation unit does not generate electricity and the state of charge of the energy storage unit is sufficient. The energy storage unit are controlled to switch between four control modes according to the system's needs to ensure stable operation of the system.
