We study the properties of plasma sheath containing the cold positive ions, the secondary electrons, and the primary electrons with a Cairns-distribution (a non-thermal velocity-distribution). We derive the generalized Bohm criterion and…
Polymer electrolytes are intensely investigated for use as solid electrolytes in next generation lithium-ion and lithium-metal batteries. However, little is known about the structural and dynamical properties of polymer electrolytes close…
It is shown experimentally that the photodetachment yield of surplus electrons created by plasma-induced charging of non-conductive surfaces of dielectric materials depends on the initial surface charge density and do not correlate with the…
Performing an analysis within density functional theory, we develop insight into the structural and electronic properties of the oxide heterostructure LaAlO3/SrTiO3. Electrostatic surface effects are decomposed from the internal lattice…
We investigated the impact of surface oxygen on the ion yield for He$^+$ ions scattered from different single crystalline surfaces in low-energy ion scattering. Initially clean Al(111) and Ta(111) were exposed to molecular oxygen and ion…
In this chapter we introduce a microscopic modelling of the surplus electrons on the plasma wall which complements the classical description of the plasma sheath. First we introduce a model for the electron surface layer to study the…
The most fundamental response of an ionized gas to a macroscopic object is the formation of the plasma sheath. It is an electron depleted space charge region, adjacent to the object, which screens the object's negative charge arising from…
A one dimensional Vlasov Poisson simulation code is employed to investigate the plasma sheath considering electron induced secondary electron emission (SEE) and backscattering. The SEE coefficient is commonly treated as constant in a range…
Moving to larger cell formats in lithium-ion batteries increases overall useable energy but introduces inhomogeneities that influence aging. This study investigates degradation in 21700-type cells with NCM cathodes and graphite/SiOx anodes…
The most fundamental response of a solid to a plasma and vice versa is electric. An electric double layer forms with a solid-bound electron-rich region-the wall charge-and a plasma-bound electron-depleted region-the plasma sheath. But it is…
Potential structural modifications of graphene exposed to gaseous tritium are important for membrane-based hydrogen isotope separation. Such modifications cannot be explained by electron irradiation alone. Instead, tritiation, caused by the…
The work functions of 7Li and 6Li metals have been measured as a function of temperature, by using photoionization of pure isolated metal nanoparticles in a beam. These data reveal a marked isotope effect in the temperature variation of…
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…
Using ab-initio calculations within the framework of Density Functional Theory (DFT), atomic structures and electronic properties of MoS2/HfO2 interface are investigated. The impact of interfacial oxygen concentration on the MoS2/HfO2…
During the intercalation of lithium in layered host materials such as graphite, lithium atoms can move within the plane between two neighboring graphene sheets, but cannot cross the sheets. Repulsive interactions between atoms in different…
Plasma sheath is the non-neutral space charge region that isolates bulk plasma from boundary. Radio-frequency (RF) sheathes are formed when applying RF voltage to electrodes. Generally, applied bias is mainly consumed by RF sheath which…
The study investigated the effects of atmospheric plasma on various dielectric materials (FR-4, PTFE, Al$_2$O$_3$) and electrode materials (copper, silver, gold-plated copper) used in surface micro-discharge plasma sources. XPS and laser…
Plasma-boundaries floating in an ionized gas are usually negatively charged. They accumulate electrons more efficiently than ions which leads to the formation of a quasi-stationary electron film at the boundaries. We propose, in a…
Understand the nature of liquid structure and its evolution under different conditions is a major challenge in condensed physics and materials science. Here, we report a pressure-induced structure change spanning a wide pressure range in…
Flowing liquid lithium is a promising fusion technology because it can provide a renewable Plasma-Facing Component (PFC) surface, modify recycling, support power exhaust, and potentially connect plasma-facing components with fuel recovery.…
