Development of a Laser Scanning Measurement System for Battery Cell Characterization
(2023-12-09)A precise understanding of the physical properties of lithium-ion cells including cell thickness distribution and its connection with lifetime is important for cell improvement. A laser scanning instrument was developed ... -
Li15Si4 Formation in Thin Film Si Negative Electrodes for Li-ion Batteries
(2015)In this work, a better understanding behind, and the implications of Li15Si4 formation in Si containing negative electrodes for rechargeable Li-ion batteries during electrochemical cycling was sought. Si in the form of ... -
Si Alloy Negative Electrode Materials for Li-ion Batteries
(2021-03-26)Si-based negative electrode materials are promising for lithium batteries. However, Si-based negative electrode materials suffer from huge volume change, crystallization effect (Li15Si4 formation), unstable solid electrolyte ... -
STRATEGIES TO IMPROVE THE STABILITY OF MESOPOROUS SILICON PHOTOCATALYSTS
(2024-04-26)Mesoporous silicon (mp-Si) nanoparticles (NPs) are of interest due to their promising application as photocatalysts for solar-driven hydrogen production via water splitting. While mp-Si NPs have shown promising photocatalytic ... -
Two-component scaling near the metal-insulator bifurcation in two dimensions
(APS through AIP, 2003-05/15)We consider a two-component scaling picture for the resistivity of two-dimensional (2D) weakly disordered interacting electron systems at low temperature with the aim of describing both the vicinity of the bifurcation and ... -
Understanding the Magnesiothermic Reduction to Form Porous Silicon Nanoparticles for Stoichiometric Reactions
(2023-08-29)Porous Si NPs have been explored in applications such as optics, sensing, gas storage, drug delivery, high-capacity anode material, photocatalysts for H2 evolution and for the reduction of CO2. The pore network of porous ...
