The Electrochemical Society (ECS) proudly celebrates the continued success of “Origin and Innovations of CMP Slurry” by Dr. Hitoshi Morinaga, published in the ECS Journal of Solid State Science and Technology (JSS) as part of the Focus Collection, “Chemical Mechanical Planarization (CMP): Past, Present, and Future in Honor of S. V. Babu” (DOI: 10.1149/2162-8777/ad5fb6).

Since its publication just over a year ago, Dr. Morinaga’s article has remained on JSS’s most-read list, earning over 6,000 downloads and seven Web of Science citations. A dedicated ECS member since 1999, and an active contributor to the ECS Electronics and Photonics Division and ECS Japan Section, Dr. Morinaga’s work reflects both technical excellence and deep engagement with our community.

We’re thrilled to recognize one of the top-read articles in the Journal of The Electrochemical Society (JES): “Changes in Structure and Ionic Resistance of Lithium-Ion Battery Graphite Electrodes – Part I: Impact of Formation and SEI” by Jonas L. S. Dickmanns, Lennart Reuter, Robert Morasch, Filippo Maglia, Roland Jung, and Hubert A. Gasteiger.

This study dives into the structural evolution of graphite electrodes during the formation process of lithium-ion batteries—particularly the development of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI). The authors provide a detailed, quantitative understanding of how this formation process impacts porosity, tortuosity, and thickness, ultimately increasing ionic resistance by up to 25 percent. These findings are essential for researchers and engineers seeking to design batteries that are not only more energy-dense, but also more efficient and durable. (more…)

ECS Advances is proud to spotlight the article, “Challenges to the Adoption of Deep Eutectic Solvents in the Electrodeposition Industries,” by T. A. Green and S. Roy of the Department of Chemical and Process Engineering at the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, UK. This thought-provoking contribution critically examines the barriers to widespread industrial adoption of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) in electrodeposition processes, an emerging area of great interest for sustainable electrochemical manufacturing.

The authors provide a comprehensive overview of the scientific, technical, and regulatory challenges impeding the transition from traditional electrolytes to DESs, while also offering valuable insights into future research directions that could unlock DESs’ full potential. Their work serves as a crucial reference for researchers, industry professionals, and policymakers aiming to advance green electrochemistry. (more…)
