Microsupercapacitors (with footprints from -mm up to -cm scale) have attracted attention for use as electrochemical energy storage devices to power wearables, IoT, and other small microsystems due to their high power density, excellent charge/discharge rev ...
The Li-ion batteries within the consumer electronics used in our everyday life suffer from well-known deficiencies due to the prevalent use of organic liquid electrolytes: the narrow electrochemical stability windows of the organic solvents used in these e ...
Corrosion of carbon-based electrodes and bipolar plates is a major hurdle and can be a cause of failure in commercial vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs). Carbon corrosion was found to occur in a commercial VRFB (10 kW/40 kWh), whereby cracks through bip ...
In a battery system, an electrochemical cell has a first compartment containing a positive electrolyte with an electrode 2 at least partially immersed in the positive electrolyte containing the first redox active material, forming a positive half cell. A s ...
We present two sensitizers, Ru(4,4'-dicarboxyvinyl)-2,2'-bipyridine)(4,4'-dinonyl-2,2'-bipyridine)(NCS)(2) (K9) and Ru(4,4'-dicarboxy(phenylethenyl)-2,2'-bipyridine)(4,4'-dinonyl-2,2'-bipyridine)(NCS)(2) (K23), which were synthesized and characterized by a ...
The common technology for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) is based on a cermet anode of nickel with yttrium stabilized zirconia (YSZ), often used as the supporting structure. One of the main limitations of this anode technology is the redox tolerance. In thi ...
