This book details the latest R&D in electrochemical energy storage technologies for portable electronics and electric vehicle applications.

During the past three decades, great progress has been made in R & D of various batteries in terms of energy density increase and cost reduction. One of the biggest challenges is increasing the energy density to achieve longer endurance time. In this book, recent research and development in advanced electrode materials for electrochemical energy storage devices is covered.

Topics covered in this important book include:

Carbon anode materials for sodium-ion batteries
Lithium titanate-based lithium-ion batteries
Rational material design and performance optimization of transition metal oxide-based lithium ion battery anodes
Effects of graphene on the electrochemical properties of the electrode of lithium ion batteries
Silicon-based lithium-ion battery anodes
Mo-based anode materials for alkali metal ion batteries
Lithium-sulfur batteries
Graphene in Lithium-Ion/Lithium-Sulfur Batteries
Graphene-ionic liquid supercapacitors
Battery electrodes based on carbon species and conducting polymers
Doped graphene for electrochemical energy storage systems
Processing of graphene oxide for enhanced electrical properties

Chunwen Sun is a Professor at Beijing Institute of Nanoenergy and Nanosystems (BINN), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). He received his PhD degree in Condensed Matter Physics from the Institute of Physics (IOP), CAS in 2006. After graduation, he worked as a postdoctoral research fellow at Technische Universität München (TUM), Germany, then joined the Institute for Fuel Cell Innovation, National Research Council Canada (NRC) as a Research Associate Officer. He has been a Full Professor and group leader of Energy Storage Materials and Devices in BINN since September 2015. His current research interests include energy storage and conversion, e.g., lithium/sodium-ion batteries, metal-air batteries, all-solid-state batteries, fuel cells and self-power systems. He has published more than 80 peer-reviewed papers with a citation >3600 times and filed 15 Chinese patents.
