Carbon and Metal Oxide Based Electrode Materials for Sodium Ion Batteries and Sodium Ion Capacitors
DownloadFall 2015
This thesis is focused on the design and fabrication of carbon-based electrode materials for sodium-ion batteries (NIBs) and sodium-ion capacitors (NICs), as well as metal oxide (SnO2) based anode material for NIBs and lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Na ion based energy storage systems are...
