요약 | Electroactive materials, such as those found in lithium-ion batteries and devices for water purification, are important for everyday life. Lithium-ion batteries are ubiquitous in the technology of today and provide a means to store energy created from renewable sources to lessen our dependence on fossil fuels. However, materials used in batteries lose capacity over time due to degradation reactions that occur inside the battery. Favorable formation of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer on the anode, and the analogous cathode electrolyte interphase (CEI) layer on the cathode, is critical to the operation of a battery. This work investigated forming a cross-linked surface layer on silicon nanoparticles, a next-generation, high-capacity anode material, to prevent continual SEI layer formation. This work also examined face-dependent reactivity of a common cathode material, LiCoO2, with an Al2O3 coating deposited via atomic layer deposition. It was found that the edge plane had nearly twice as thick of an Al2O3 coating as compared to the basal plane of LiCoO2. Finally, this work showed that a conductive polymer electrode could produce hydroxyl radicals for water purification and was compared to boron-doped diamond electrodes, one of the best performing hydroxyl radical producing electrodes. |
