Is Platinum a Proton Blocking Catalyst?
Aparna Saksena, Yujun Zhao, J. Manoj Prabhakar +3
Platinum, to date, is the most widely applied electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in acidic media. It is assumed to be a proton-blocking catalyst with only surfac…
Electrochemically-driven formation of Intermetallic Cu3ZnLi2 alters Li-transport in nanostructured bimetallic battery anode
Eric V. Woods, Xinren Chen, Yuwei Zhang +10
The role of Li-based batteries in the electrification of society cannot be understated, however their operational lifetime is often limited by the formation of dendrites, i.e. the…
Conditional spinodal decomposition in Li-Mg anodes for lithium metal batteries
Leonardo Shoji Aota, Aubin Leray, Yuqi Liu +14
The development of batteries with high energy density, short charging times and use of sustainable materials is critical for decarbonization. Magnesium (Mg)-based anodes for lithiu…
Self-supported bulk MXene electrodes for electrochemical hydrogen applications
Rebeca Miyar, Bar Favelukis, Eva B. Mayer +7
MXenes are promising candidates for electrochemical applications due to their high conductivity, tunable surface chemistry, and catalytic potential. However, their use in bulk elec…
Vacuum Dealloyed Brass as Li-Metal Battery Current Collector: Effect of Zinc and Porosity
Eric V Woods, Xinren Chen, Shaolou Wei +19
"Anode-free" lithium-metal batteries promise significantly higher energy density than conventional graphite-based lithium-ion batteries; however, lithium dendrite growth can lead t…
