Materials for Sustainable Energy Storage at the Nanoscale by Fabian Ifeanyichukwu Ezema,M Anusuya,Assumpta C Nwanya Pdf
The book Materials for Sustainable Energy Storage Devices at the Nanoscale anticipates covering all electrochemical energy storage devices such as supercapacitors, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), and fuel cells, transformation and enhancement materials for solar cells, photocatalysis, etc. The focal objective of the book is to deliver stunning and current information to the materials application at nanoscale to researchers and scientists in our contemporary time towardthe enhancement of energy conversion and storage devices. However, the contents of the proposed book, Materials for Sustainable Energy Storage at the Nanoscale, will cover various fundamental principles and wide knowledge of different energy conversion and storage devices with respect to their advancement due to the emergence of nanoscale materials for sustainable storage devices. This book is targeted to be award-winning as well as a reference book for researchers and scientists working on different types of nanoscale materials-based energy storage and conversion devices. Features Comprehensive overview of energy storage devices, an important field of interest for researchers worldwide Explores the importance and growing impact of batteries and supercapacitors Emphasizes the fundamental theories, electrochemical mechanism, and its computational view point and discusses recent developments in electrode designing based on nanomaterials, separators, and fabrication of advanced devices and their performances Fabian I. Ezema is a professor at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka. He earned a PhD in Physics and Astronomy from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka. His research focused on several areas of Materials Science, from synthesis and characterizations of particles and thin-film materials through chemical routes with emphasis on energy applications. For the last 15 years, he has been working on energy conversion and storage (cathodes, anodes, supercapacitors, solar cells, among others), including novel methods of synthesis, characterization and evaluation of the electrochemical and optical properties. He has published about 180 papers in various international journals and given over 50 talks at various conferences. His h-index is 21 with over 1500 citations and he has served as reviewer for several high impact journals and as an editorial board member.
