It's been a long time - I want to share my recent work on the electrolyte for fast-charging Li-ion. We are pursuing an in-depth understanding of Li+ solvation and its impacts on interfacial kinetics at fast-charging graphite anodes. In this work, we address the "marionette" effect of diluent in localized high-concentration electrolytes on Li+ solvation and SEI chemistry. Many thanks to all authors and my collaborators, Prof. Janghyuk Moon and Prof. Sujong Chae. This work has been invited for the themed collection: Journal of Materials Chemistry A Emerging Investigators 2024. Please check out this paper (https://lnkd.in/gPxpY9cp) and see what's going on in my group.

Ibrahim Sanusi conducted research on TiO2/ZnO composite thin-film photocatalysts for gas-phase oxidation of ethanol. In the study, Ibrahim investigates the photocatalytic activity of ZnO/TiO2 composite films for the gas-phase oxidation of ethanol. Pure TiO2, pure ZnO, and their composites were formulated using a sol-gel synthesis method, and the resulting powders were cast and dried as thin films in a flat plate ultraviolet light-emitting- diode (UV LED reactor).

Excited to share that our latest research paper on 𝐒𝐮𝐫𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞-𝐄𝐧𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐡𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫-𝐒𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐕𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞-𝐋𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭-𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐇₂ 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐔𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐀𝐠-𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐝 𝐓𝐰𝐢𝐧 𝐂𝐫𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐝₀.₅𝐙𝐧₀.₅𝐒 𝐩𝐡𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐬 have been published in Catalysis Communications. In collaboration with Prof. Dr. İsmail Boz and Dr. Yaşar ZENGİN.   Our research aims to enhance the photocatalytic performance of Cd₁₋ₓZnₓS photocatalysts. We do this by inducing a homojunction and incorporating plasmonic Ag. We induce a homojunction with wurtzite and zinc-blend phases through an alkaline-assisted hydrothermal method. This modification enhances the separation of electron-hole pairs. A pivotal aspect of our study involves the integration of plasmonic Ag, achieved through a facile solvothermal method. This integration amplifies visible light absorption and further boosts H₂ generation via Surface Plasmon Resonance.   Explore the full paper (open access)

Researchers in the Republic of Korea investigated binder jetting to fabricate CERMET preforms on the Innovent with precise control over the particle distribution, addressing the challenges associated with particle agglomeration and ensuring preform shape integrity. Their study emphasized the significance of controlling wettability and surface energies for subsequent melt infiltration, focusing on the interfacial reactions between Zr2Cu and ZrO2. The results indicate that binder jetting can significantly enhance the thermal and irradiation performance of CERMET fuels.
