Effect of Li on the intrinsic and extrinsic contributions of the piezoelectric response in Lix(Na0.5K0.5)1-xNbO3 piezoelectric ceramics across the polymorphic phase boundary

Electro-mechanical factor affecting the Li+/Mg2+ selectivity performance of ion separation metal–organic frameworks

“…Following the recent considerable development of portable electronic devices, eco-friendly vehicles, metallurgy, and catalysts, the demand for lithium has been increasing more rapidly than ever. 1–5 Lithium usage increased by 41% in 2022 worldwide, and the total consumption in 2025 is estimated to be approximately double that in 2015. 6,7 The rapid increase in lithium usage is attributed to the global consensus on the need for eco-friendly energy sources that do not rely on fossil fuels and the subsequent growth of the energy storage industry.…”
