Linear and non-linear pseudocapacitances with or without diffusion control (2021)
Journal Article

Pseudocapacitance is an important reversible charge storage mechanism in many electrode materials. Although the concept was first proposed in early 1960s, it has been more widely studied following the observation of rectangular cyclic voltammograms (...

Enhancement of photoconversion efficiency and light harvesting ability of TiO2 nanotube-arrays with Cu2ZnSnS4 (2021)
Journal Article

We report an underpotential deposition (UPD) route of Cu2ZnSnS4/TiO2 nanotube arrays (TiO2-NTAs) in which the Kesterite (Cu2ZnSnS4) was employed as a sensitizer to enhance the photoconversion efficiency of the TiO2-NTAs. Cu2ZnSnS4 was simultaneously... Read More about Enhancement of photoconversion efficiency and light harvesting ability of TiO2 nanotube-arrays with Cu2ZnSnS4.

Nano-channel-based physical and chemical synergic regulation for dendrite-free lithium plating (2021)
Journal Article

Uncontrollable dendrite growth resulting from the non-uniform lithium ion (Li+) flux and volume expansion in lithium metal (Li) negative electrode leads to rapid performance degradation and serious safety problems of lithium metal batteries. Although... Read More about Nano-channel-based physical and chemical synergic regulation for dendrite-free lithium plating.

Honeycombed activated carbon with greatly increased specific surface by direct activation of glucose for supercapacitors (2021)
Journal Article

In the production of activated carbons (ACs), glucose as a precursor is prone to producing the graphitic char intermediates after carbonization, which are difficult to be activated in the subsequent activation. In order to obtain a desirable specific... Read More about Honeycombed activated carbon with greatly increased specific surface by direct activation of glucose for supercapacitors.

High Yield and Packing Density Activated Carbon by One-Step Molecular Level Activation of Hydrophilic Pomelo Peel for Supercapacitors (2021)
Journal Article

Highly hydrophilic pomelo peel is used as an activated carbon (AC) precursor so that KOH can be homogeneously absorbed within it. Subsequent cryodesiccation retains the original morphology of the pomelo peel and distribution of KOH, which provides th...
