In the past decades, a significant increase of the transistor density on a chip has led to exponential growth in computational power driven by Moore's law. To overcome the bottleneck of traditional von-Neumann architecture in computational efficiency, effo ...
Sodium-nickel-chloride batteries have a proven track record for backup power applications, but also show great potential for large-scale stationary electricity storage currently dominated by lithium-ion batteries. While lithium-ion cells rely on critical c ...
The sustainable development of rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries (RZIBs) is severely limited by the uncontrolled zinc dendritic growth and side reactions on the anode. Herein, a lignocellulose nanofiber (LCNF) separator from waste palm with dual-func ...
This thesis is a detailed description of three experimental investigations on aqueous interfaces. All projects made use of the microjet technology or the more recently developed flat-jet technique which enables the implementation of liquid water in vacuum ...
Electroactive polymers show promising characteristic such as lightness, compactness, flexibility and large displacements making them a candidate for application in cardiac assist devices. This revives the need for quasi- square wave voltage supply switchin ...
Hexagonal boron nitride () is the isoelectronic but insulating counterpart of graphene. Like graphene it can easily be grown as high-quality nanotubes or as single layers on metal surfaces. Both materials can be exfoliated or transferred after single-layer ...
Objective: Cognitive workload monitoring (CWM)can enhance human-machine interaction by supporting task execution assistance considering the operator’s cognitive state. Therefore, we propose a machine learning design methodology and a data processing strate ...
Nanopores are nanometer-sized holes that were initially proposed for DNA sequencing. Several years ago sequencing was made possible with biological nanopores. However, solid-state nanopores have plenty of advantages to offer compared to their biological co ...
Electric vehicles (EVs) have gained widespread attention in recent years as the dominant strategy for curbing CO2 emissions through transport electrification. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are currently the most suitable and almost exclusively employed ener ...
This study evaluates two different scenarios of an integrated system to generate electricity for a charging station using proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) and solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). To improve the efficiency, the exhaust heat of these two ...
