Nanomaterials for Electrochemical Energy Storage Devices

Beschreibung

Presents state-of-the-art review chapters by subject matter specialists in electrochemical energy storage systems The rising energy demand and scarcity of fossil fuels are major concerns these days and have drawn much attention to utilizing renewable energy sources with improved energy storage. To address this energy demand, research has been focused on developing high performance energy storage devices and extensive studies have been carried out on electrodes, electrolytes, as well as separators used in different types of batteries and supercapacitors. In this regard, nanostructured materials have drawn considerable attention due to their special properties of high surface areas providing a large number of active sites for electrochemical action and low charge diffusion path length in compared to their bulk counterparts. Various materials, from transition metal oxides, chalcogenides to carbonaceous materials to polymers with their unique properties, tailored morphology, and size can be used as effective electrode materials for different storage mechanism. Nanomaterials for Electrochemical Energy Storage Devices comprises 11 substantive chapters in 3 sections in which the first section discusses the fundamental physics, characterization techniques related to different types of batteries and supercapacitors and the computational perspective to understand the lithium ion battery mechanism. The next section elaborately reviews different types of batteries and their performances reported. The third and final section is focused on supercapacitor based on different nanostructured materials and their performances. Audience The book is aimed at researchers in materials science, solar and renewable energy, nanoscience, and electrochemistry. It will also be used by engineers and researchers in industry working on storage devices and supercapacitors.

Autor

Poulomi Roy obtained her PhD on Nanomaterials from the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, India in 2007. Currently, Dr. Roy is a Senior Scientist at CSIR ? Central Mechanical Engineering Research Institute (CMERI). Before joining CSIR ? CMERI, she worked as an Assistant Professor at Birla Institute of Technology Mesra. She has published about 50 research articles in various high impact international journals. Her research interests comprise the development of nanomaterials based on metal oxides, chalcogenides and hybrid materials for their applications in energy conversion to storage devices, including photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, water splitting, dye-sensitized solar cells, supercapacitors, batteries etc. Suneel Kumar Srivastava obtained his PhD (1986) from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur. He is currently Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Head in School of Energy Science and Engineering of Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur. Prof. Srivastava carried out his post-doctoral research work as DAAD Fellow in Technical University, Karlsruhe (1988?89, 2003, 2006), University of Siegen (1994, 1999), Technical University, M??nchen (2009), IPF Dresden (2013) Germany and University of Nantes, France (2003, 2007) as a Visiting Scientist. He has guided 17 PhD students, published about 180 research papers in referred journals and co-edited a book on 'Hybrid Nanomaterials' (Wiley-Scrivener 2017).
