  1. 1. Combining Electrochemistry and Photoelectron Spectroscopy for the Study of Li-ion Batteries

    Författare :Ida Källquist; Maria Hahlin; Håkan Rensmo; Laurent Duda; Kristina Edström; Hendrik Bluhm; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Li-ion battery; battery interfaces; electrochemistry; electrochemical potential; photoelectron spectroscopy; operando; ambient pressure photoelectron spectroscopy;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) is combined with electrochemistry to investigate the electrochemical processes that occur at the electrode/electrolyte interfaces in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). LIB systems are studied by the use of both ex situ PES, where electrodes are electrochemically pre-cycled and subsequently measured by PES, and operando PES, where electrodes are cycled during PES measurements.

  2. 2. Interfaces in Li-ion batteries seen through photoelectron spectroscopy

    Författare :Ida Källquist; Maria Hahlin; Håkan Rensmo; Laurent Duda; Kristina Edström; Edvin Lundgren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : To accommodate the need for greener energy solutions renewable energy sources aswell as reliable energy storage is a prerequisite. For the latter, high energy densitybatteries with long-term cycling stability are necessary. The cycling properties of abattery is to a large extent dependent on the functionality of the battery interfaces. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Atomic Layer Deposition and Immobilised Molecular Catalysts Studied by In and Ex Situ Electron Spectroscopy

    Författare :Payam Shayesteh; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ambient pressure XPS; Catalysis; Heterogenisation; Atomic layer deposition; HfO2; Gas phase; TDMAHf; TDMAT; Fysicumarkivet A:2019:Shayesteh;

    Sammanfattning : The research work that I describe in my thesis deals with three different heterogenisation approaches for synthesising a heterogeneous transition metal catalyst used for direct C-H activation reactions. The three heterogenisation approaches considered in my research are: (1) heterogenisation of a molecular catalyst on a polymer support using covalent bonds, (2) heterogenisation of a catalyst on a reduced graphene oxide (rGO) support using non-covalent interactions and (3) immobilisation of a catalyst on an inorganic surface using covalent bonds and encapsulation in an inorganic matrix.

    Sammanfattning : Photovoltaics, the apparatus utilizing green solar power to generate electricity, is one of the efficient measures to the continuously increasing energy demand and exacerbated carbon emission of the human civilization. As a candidate with the potential of providing the cheapest and greenest form of electricity, organic solar cells (OSCs) received tremendous scientific interest, resulting in a significant power conversion efficiency (PCE) boosting to above 19% recently.

  5. 5. BUILDING AN X-RAY PHOTOELECTRON SPECTROSCOPY ENDSTATION FOR OPERANDO STUDIES OF CATALYTIC CO AND CO2 HYDROGENATION REACTIONS

    Författare :David Degerman; Anders Nilsson; Joachim Schnadt; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; kemisk fysik; Chemical Physics;

    Sammanfattning : X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) provides an element-specific surface sensitive probe of the chemical composition in a system, and is consequently one of the workhorses of surface science and catalysis research. The obtained information on the chemical and physical state of the catalyst and adsorbates is essential in the endeavor to achieve a fundamental understanding how chemical reactions are facilitated by the catalyst.
