Atomic and Nano Scale Materials for Advanced Energy Conversion

Discover the latest advancements in energy conversion technologies used to develop modern sustainable energy techniques

In Atomic and Nano Scale Materials for Advanced Energy Conversion, expert interdisciplinary researcher Dr. Zongyou Yin delivers a comprehensive overview of nano-to-atomic scale materials science, the development of advanced electrochemical, photochemical, photoelectrochemical, and photovoltaic energy conversion strategies, and the applications for sustainable water splitting and other technologies.

The book offers readers cutting-edge information of two-dimensional nano, mixed-dimensional nano, nano rare earth, clusters, and single atoms. It constructively evaluates emerging nano-to-atomic scale energy conversion technologies for academic research and development (R&D) researchers and industrial technique consultants and engineers.

The author sets out a systematic analysis of recent energy-conversion science, covering topics like adaptable manufacturing of Van der Waals heterojunctions, mixed-dimensional junctions, tandem structures, and superlattices. He also discusses function-oriented engineering in polymorphic phases, photon absorption, excitons-charges conversion, non-noble plasmonics, and solid-liquid-gas interactions.

Readers will also benefit from:

A thorough introduction to emerging nanomaterials for energy conversion, including electrochemical, photochemical, photoelectrochemical, and photovoltaic energy conversion
An exploration of clusters for energy conversion, including electrochemical, photochemical, and photoelectrochemical clusters
Practical discussions of single atoms for energy conversion in electrochemical, photochemical, and photoelectrochemical energy conversion technologies
A thorough analysis of future perspectives and directions in advanced energy conversion technology

Perfect for materials scientists, photochemists, electrochemists, and inorganic chemists, Atomic and Nano Scale Materials for Advanced Energy Conversion is also a must-read resource for catalytic chemists interested in the intersection of advanced chemistry and physics in energy conversion technologies.

Zongyou Yin is an Associate Professor at Research School of Chemistry, Australian National University (ANU). He completed his Ph.D. at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore in 2008. Then, he started his postdoc careers at NTU/Singapore, followed by MIT and then Harvard University. Dr Yin started his own Research Group at ANU from early 2017. His research is interdisciplinary, encompassing chemistry and physics of nano-to-atomic materials, fundamental relationship among materials-structures-devices, and synergistic integration of multi-functions towards system-level energy and wearable applications. He has filed 10 international patents and published over 110 articles in international journals. He is Guest Editor and Editorial Board Member of many international journals. He is the recipient of several awards, including the ANU Futures Scheme, Vice-Chancellor's Award for Early Career Academics, and World Highly Cited Researchers in 2015-to-2019 five years consecutively.
