Abstract
Green, efficient energy storage and conversion systems are an important means of addressing global environmental and energy crisis. The current battery systems have been difficult to meet the increasing market demand due to their relatively low energy densities, therefore it is urgent to develop new energy storage technologies with high energy density and low cost. To this end, Professor Zhongwei Chen and his research group adhere to a bottom-up “material-electrode-battery-system” strategy to develop a variety of advanced energy storage technologies, including lithium-ion batteries, zinc-air batteries, fuel cells, for a wide range of energy storage applications. Through the rational material design and engineering, various high-performance electrodes with hierarchical micro- and nanostructures have been developed. Moreover, the electrode structures are controlled and optimized toward high recharge efficiency and energy density. Together, these innovate materials and electrode architectures practically allow industrial assembly and production of more efficient, affordable, and safer battery systems for clean and sustainable energy storage.
