Two series of phosphors, α-Sr_2(1−x)Dy_2xP₂O₇ and α-Sr_2(1−2x)Dy_2xLi_2xP₂O₇, with different x values were synthesized successfully using a conventional solid-state method at high temperature for the first time, and their luminescence properties were investigated comparatively.

Evaluating the state of health (SOH) of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is essential for their safe deployment and the advancement of electric vehicles (EVs). Existing machine learning methods face challenges in the automation and effectiveness of feature extraction, necessitating improved computational efficiency. To address this issue, we propose a collaborative approach integrating an enhanced whale optimization algorithm (EWOA) for feature selection and a lightweight support vector regression (SVR) model for SOH estimation. Key features are extracted from charging voltage, current, temperature, and incremental capacity (IC) curves. The EWOA selects features by initially assigning weights based on importance scores from a random forest model. Gaussian noise increases population diversity, while a dynamic threshold method optimizes the selection process, preventing local optima. The selected features construct the SVR model for SOH estimation. This method is validated using four aging datasets from the NASA database, conducting 50 prediction experiments per battery. The results indicate optimal average absolute error (MAE) and root mean square error (RMSE) within 0.41% and 0.71%, respectively, with average errors below 1% and 1.3%. This method enhances automation and accuracy in feature selection while ensuring efficient SOH estimation, providing valuable insights for practical LIB applications.
