  1. Si-C anodes for high capacity lithium-ion batteries.
  2. Engineering design and electrode material
  3. Transport and battery


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  • Understanding: Si-C is a good starting point to have some understanding of nano fabrication as well as nano transport.
    1. Silicon has unique semiconductor properties with various applications. Also, silicon fabrication has received benefit from massive production in circuits.
    2. Carbon nano materials has great potential to be connecting, supporting and even functional application in nanoscale devices.


  • Understanding:  I had some attention put on the supercapacitors. By reading the new released paper on CDI capacitive deionization for water desalination by Prof. Santiago in Stanford. The ion transport method could be borrowed from it. In situ spatially and temporally resolved measurements of salt concentration between charging porous electrodes for desalination by capacitive deionization


  • Idea: Electrode material innovation bases on design concepts
    1. An idea matrix and innovative operator method is described in paper : IDEA MATRIX AND CREATIVITY OPERATOR, Victor Tang, Jianxi Luo, ICED 2013.
    2. Silicon-carbon anode geometries follows a matrix + operator pattern.
      1. Material Matrix: Si NW, C NW, Si NP, C NP, Si Nanosheet, C Nanosheet.
      2. Operator: Addition, subtraction, hierarchical, encapsulation
  • Idea: Transport research as well as systematic research in lithium-ion is rare. Two possible topics could be done.
    1. If we use lithiumnation-delithiumnation model by material science researcher plus transport theories in thermal science, there will be theoretical explanation to the lithium-ion batteries performance.
    2. Thermal transport in nanoscale material is not well understood, which is critical for systematical modeling the battery thermal stability.
