A Theoretical Framework for the Electrochemical Characterization of Anisotropic Micro-Emulsions
Tim Tichter, Rohan Borah, Thomas Nann
Micro emulsions (MEs) offer an exceptionally broad spectrum of applications covering sensing, electrosynthesis, supercapacitors and redox-flow batteries. Herein, we develop the the…
Suppressed self-discharge of an aqueous supercapacitor using Earth-abundant materials
Samuel Devese, Thomas Nann
Supercapacitors (aka electrostatic double-layer capacitors -- EDLCs) offer excellent power storage capacity and kinetics, but suffer under rapid self-discharge. We introduced a zeo…
High voltage carbon-based cathodes for non-aqueous aluminium-ion batteries
Shalini Divya, Thomas Nann
Four different forms of carbon: activated carbon (AC) from human hair, AC from hemp fibers, a carbon fullerene extract consisting of C and C fullerene (CFEx) and Supe…
Solid-electrolyte interphases (SEI) in nonaqueous aluminum-ion batteries
Nicolò Canever, Fraser R. Hughson, Thomas Nann
Nonaqueous aluminum-ion batteries are an interesting emerging energy storage technology, offering a plethora of advantages over existing grid energy storage solutions. Carbonaceous…
Molybdenum dichalcogenide cathodes for aluminium-ion batteries
Shalini Divya, James H. Johnston, Thomas Nann
Many successful battery electrodes are based on 2D-layered materials. We have studied aluminium-ion batteries using molybdenum dichalcogenides: \ce{MoS2}, \ce{MoSe2} and MoSSe as a…
