The present invention provides a redox flow battery comprising a negative electrode (also referred to herein as an 'anode') immersed in a first liquid electrolyte (also referred to herein as a 'negative electrolyte' or &#x201c;anolyte&#x201d;), a positive electrode (also referred to herein as a &#x201c;cathode&#x201d;) immersed in a second liquid electrolyte (also referred to herein as a &#x201c;positive electrolyte&#x201d; or &#x201c;catholyte&#x201d;), and a cation-permeable separator (e.g., a membrane or other cation-permeable material) partitioning the negative electrode/anolyte from the positive electrode/catholyte. The redox reactant of the catholyte comprises a compound of Formula (I) as described herein.

Organic redox molecules for flow batteries

A composition, as well as methods using the composition, for detection or quantification of a molecule at a singlet state (e.g., singlet oxygen). The composition includes one or more nanoparticles, and the nanoparticle has an energy donor, an energy acceptor associated with the energy donor, and an energy transfer mechanism between the energy donor and the energy acceptor.

Photoluminescent nanoparticles and their uses in detection or quantification of singlet oxygen

An electrolyte for a lithium-ion electrochemical cell comprises a non-aqueous solution of a lithium salt and a redox shuttle compound, wherein the redox shuttle compound comprises &#x2014;OR groups at carbons 1 and 4 of a benzene ring; a first hydrocarbon ring fused to carbons 2 and 3 of the benzene ring; and a second hydrocarbon ring fused to the carbons 5 and 6 of the benzene ring, wherein either (i) the first and second hydrocarbon rings together with the benzene ring constitute two fused benzobicyclo[2.2.2]octane ring systems sharing a common benzo core group; or (ii) the first and second hydrocarbon rings together with the benzene ring constitute two fused benzobicyclo[2.2.1]heptane ring systems sharing a common benzo core group.

Annulated tetra-substituted hydroquinone ether-based redox shuttle additives for lithium-ion batteries
