As a promising cathode inheritor for lithium-ion batteries, the sulfur cathode exhibits very high theoretical volumetric capacity and energy density. In its practical applications, one has to solve the insulating properties of sulfur and the shuttle effect ...
Chem. degrdn. at electrode/electrolyte interfaces in high-energy storage devices, such as Li-ion batteries, imposes durability challenges that affect their life and cost. In oxide electrodes, degrdn. is linked to the presence of redox active transition met ...
Accurate models capable to predict the dynamic behavior and the State-of-Charge (SoC) of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESSs) is a key aspect for the definition of model-based controls in electric vehicles and in power grid applications of these energy s ...
Social, economic, and political pressures are causing a shift in the global energy mix, with a preference toward renewable energy sources. In order to realize widespread implementation of these resources, large-scale storage of renewable energy is needed. ...
Replacing the liq. electrolyte in lithium batteries by a solid has been a long-standing goal of the battery industry due to the promise of better safety and the potential to produce batteries with higher energy densities. Recently, sym. polystyrene-block-p ...
There is considerable interest in developing solid electrolytes for rechargeable lithium batteries as they have the potential to increase both energy d. due to incorporation of a lithium metal anode and safety of batteries due to the fact that they are non ...
The integration of inorg. nanocrystals as building units into mesoscale architectures yields materials whose structure is controllable on at., nano, and meso length scales providing a foundation for understanding how system-level functional properties emer ...
The electrochemical behavior of a promising hydrogen/bromine redox flow battery is investigated for grid-scale energy-storage application with some of the best redox-flow-battery performance results to date, including a peak power of 1.4 W/cm(2) and a 91% ...
Reversible chemical delithiation/lithiation of LiFePO4 was successfully demonstrated using ferrocene derivatives, based on which a novel energy storage system - the redox flow lithium-ion battery (RFLB), was devised by integrating the operation flexibility ...
Cation-ordered Li[Ni1/2Mn3/2]O-4 with a P4(3)32 space group (CO-LNMO) and "cation-disordered'' (CDO) LNMO are thought to be the state-of-the-art materials for lithium-ion batteries. However, in contrast to CO-LNMO, the crystal structure and electrochemical ...
