Measurement of Volume Changes and Associated Stresses in Ge Electrodes Due to Na/Na Redox Reactions
Subhajit Rakshit, Akshay S. Pakhare, Olivia Ruiz +5
In situ electrochemical cells were assembled with an amorphous germanium (a-Ge) film as working electrode and sodium foil as reference and counter electrode. The stresses generated…
Effect of Decreasing Cobalt Content on the Electrochemical Properties and Structural Stability of Li_(1-x)Ni_(y)Co_(z)Al_(0.05)O_(2) Type Cathode Materials
Kamalika Ghatak, Hemant Kumar, Siva Nadimpalli +1
In Lithium ion batteries (LIBs), proper design of cathode materials influences its intercalation behavior, overall cost, structural stability, and its impact on environment. At pre…
