The department Electrochemical Energy Storage focuses on fundamental aspects of novel battery concepts like sulfur cathodes and lithiated silicon anodes. The aim is to understand the fundamental mechanisms that lead to their marked capacity fading. The Department has a strong expertise on operando studies of battery systems, which is closely connected to our efforts to synthesize new carbon nanostructures as cathodes for lithium/sulfur cells.
tasks
- Design and synthesis of plasmonic nanostructures formed by core/shell nanoparticles, nanorods, and nanostars
- Synthesis of tailored chiral metal nanowires by using self-assembled sugar-containing helix nanowires as the template
- Study the optical properties of the plasmonic nanostructures
- Establish surface plasmon polariton directional propagation by a chiral hybrid
