A nanowire battery uses nanowires to increase the surface area of one or both of its electrodes, which improves the capacity of the battery. Some designs (silicon, germanium and transition metal oxides ), variations of the lithium-ion battery have been announced, although none are commercially available.
Recent experiment on nanowire solar cells has led to a remarkable improvement of the power conversion efficiency of SiNW solar cells from <1% to >17% in the last few years. [5] The ability for lithium ions to intercalate into silicon structures renders various Si nanostructures of interest towards applications as anodes in Li-ion batteries ...
Corn-like nanowire is a one-dimensional nanowire with interconnected nanoparticles on the surface, providing a large percentage of reactive facets. TiO 2 corn-like nanowires were first prepared by a surface modification concept using surface tension stress mechanism through a two consecutive hydrothermal operation, and showed an increase of 12% ...
Editor’s note: “The Forever Battery That Promises to Change the EV Industry” was previously published in March 2023. It has since been updated to include the most relevant information available.
Materials that are taken into consideration for the next generation lithium-ion battery (LIBs) negative electrode share common characteristics such as low cost, high theoretical specific capacity, and good electrical conductivity, etc. Carbon- and silicon- based materials have shown to be promising materials for the negative electrode.
The superconducting nanowire single-photon detector (SNSPD or SSPD) is a type of optical and near-infrared single-photon detector based on a current-biased superconducting nanowire. [1] It was first developed by scientists at Moscow State Pedagogical University and at the University of Rochester in 2001.
In particular, the O3-type NaNi 1/4 Na 1/6 Mn 2/12 Ti 4/12 Sn 1/12 O 2 oxide can deliver 160 mAh/g at average voltage of 3.22 V vs Na/Na +, [40] while a series of doped Ni-based oxides of the stoichiometry Na a Ni (1−x−y−z) Mn x Mg y Ti z O 2 can deliver 157 mAh/g in a sodium-ion "full cell" with a hard carbon anode at average discharge ...
