ABSTRACT: Strategies and approaches for materials processing and applications
Energy storage has become a game changer in entire energy system for integration of renewable energy to power supply system. Rapid increase in renewable energy leads to smart buildings, smart grid and smart cities but these are impossible without energy storage. ISEM team at UOW has made significant advances in development of strategies and approaches on novel materials research for energy applications. These include following approaches: chemical substitution and doping for structure and electronic property alteration; Band engineering for alteration of electronic properties; Strain engineering for both electronic strain and structure strain; Additive & subtractive engineering--Controlled growth in solution via surfactants, ion ratio, temp etc; Compositing: CNT and graphene with active materials; Dimension manipulation: 1D/2D/3D; Coating/encapsulation/matrix/frame work/cages; York-shell sphere/Core-shell wire/tube/fabires/ribbons; Surface engineering; Hybridisation at materials & cells level: SC/battery and SC/Solar. A number of examples using these strategies will be described with particular case for sodium ion battery development for scale up applications.
