However, the development of advanced science and technology has spurred demands for green and sustainable energy storage materials.Biomass-derived carbon, as a type of electrode materials, has attracted much attention because of its structural diversities,adjustable physical/chemical properties, environmental friendliness and considerable economic value. Because the nature contributes the biomass with bizarre micro structures,the biomass-derived carbon materials also show naturally structural diversities, such as OD spherical, 1D fibrous, 2D lamellar and 3D spatial structures. In this review, the structure design of biomass-derived carbon materials for energy storage is presented. The effects of structural diversity, porosity and surface heteroatom doping of biomass-derived carbon materials in supercapacitors, lithium-ion batteries and sodium-ion batteries are discussed in detail. In addition, the new trends and challenges in biomass-derived carbon materials have also been proposed for further rational design of biomass-derived carbon materials for energy storage.展开更多

In this review, we focus on the roles and regulatory mechanisms of T lymphocytes energy metabolism in its activation, differentiation and physiological function. We also discuss the significance of T cell energy metabolism for the treatment of inflammatory diseases.展开更多

The newly identified cold-compressed graphite phases of M, W and 0 carbon provide a crucial link to understand the graphite-to- diamond phase transformation. We demonstrate by ab initio calculations that pressure has a dual role in lowering the conversion barrier and enhancing the production stability during the first-stage cold-compressed phase conversion of graphite toward the intermediate metastable M, W and 0 carbon phases. However, it has little effect on the relative enthalpy and high conversion barrier during the second-stage conversion process toward the diamond polytypes, showing a temperature dominated conversion process. These results may give explanation regarding the necessity of high pressure and high temperature during the graphite-to- diamond reaction.展开更多
