Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have become essential in modern energy storage; however, their performance is often limited by the stability and efficiency of their components, particularly the cathode and electrolyte. Transition metal layered…
At present, the most common type of cathode materials, NCA [Li_(1-x)Ni_(0.80)Co_(0.15)Al_(0.05)O_(2), x = 0 to 1], have a very high concentration of cobalt. Since cobalt is toxic and expensive, the existing design of cathode materials is…
Highly porous Pt/Al thin film electrodes on yttria stabilized zirconia electrolytes were prepared by dealloying of co-sputtered Pt/Al films. The oxygen reduction capability of the resulting electrodes was analyzed in a solid oxide fuel cell…
Supercapacitor electrodes fabricated from a nanocomposite consisting of multiwall carbon nanotubes and titanium oxide nanoparticles were characterized electrochemically. Conventional electrochemical characterizations cyclic voltammetry and…
NOx are major air pollutants, having negative impact on environment and consequently, human health. We propose here the single-electron reduction of NOx (x = 1, 2) using superalkalis. We study the interaction of NOx with FLi2, OLi3 and NLi4…
Tandem catalysis involves two or more catalysts arranged in proximity within a single reaction vessel, with the aim of synergistically aligning the catalysts' reaction pathways to maximize overall system performance. This study presents a…
In Lithium ion batteries (LIBs), proper design of cathode materials influences its intercalation behavior, overall cost, structural stability, and its impact on environment. At present, the most common type of cathode materials, NCA , has…
We propose that the machinability of hard ceramics can be improved by reversible electrochemical doping. On the example of TiO2, we show in a combined density functional theory-molecular dynamics computational study that a small amount of…
The radicals HCO and CH$_3$ on carbon monoxide ice surfaces were simulated using density functional theory. Their binding energy on amorphous CO ice shows broad distributions, with approximative average values of 500 K for HCO and 200 K for…
Exact density functionals for the exchange and correlation energies are approximated in practical calculations for the ground-state electronic structure of a many-electron system. An important exact constraint for the construction of…
Photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) reduction of N2 to ammonia (NH3) is emerging as the potential alternative to overcome the standard Haber-Bosch approach. In this communication, solar N2 reduction was demonstrated with molybdenum carbide (Mo2C)…
Electrocatalytic CO$_2$RR is an interfacial process, involving a minimum of three phases at the contact point of gaseous CO$_2$ with the electrodic surface and the liquid electrolyte. As a consequence, surface chemistry at composite…
Employing a local formula for the electron-electron interaction energy, we derive a self-consistent approximation for the total energy of a general $N$-electron system. Our scheme works as a local variant of the Thomas-Fermi approximation…
Micro and nanostructured electrodes form an integral part of a wide variety of electrochemical systems for biomolecule detection, batteries, solar cells, scanning electrochemical microscopy, etc. Given the complexity of the electrode…
Molecular dynamics simulations have been used extensively to determine equilibrium properties of the electrode-electrolyte interface in supercapacitors held at various potentials. While such studies are essential to understand and optimize…

The solid-state reaction was used to synthesize CoO2 nanostructured material. Cobalt nitrate tetrahydrate and sodium oxide (NaOH) were combined to produce CoO2 nanostructured material. The three synthesized working electrodes were each…
Electrochemical capacitors with pure electric double layer capacitance are so far largely been limited to carbon materials only. Conventional metal oxides with Faradaic pseudocapacitance substantially suffer from material instability at…
