Bonefacino, Julien; Ghashghaie, Sasan; Zheng, Tianye; Lin, Chun-Pang; Zheng, Wenwei; Albero Blanquer, Laura; Huang, Jiaqiang; Gervillie, Charlotte; Tam, Hwa-Yaw; Tarascon, Jean-Marie; Boles, Steven (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The convergence of fiber optic sensing with lithium-ion batteries holds great promise for observing key cell parameters in real time, which is essential to every level of decision making, from design and engineering to ... -
Holistic Processing of Sawdust to Enable Sustainable Hybrid Li-Ion Capacitors
Guo, Xiaoyang; van de Kleut, Dick; Zhang, Jia; Chen, Chaofan; Wang, Xuehang; Zheng, Tianye; Boles, Steven Tyler (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Activated carbon has long been recognized as a promising electrode material for energy storage devices. The extraordinarily high specific area makes it challenging to replace in supercapacitors since electrical double-layer ... -
Identifying Problematic Phase Transformations in Pb Foil Anodes for Sodium-Ion Batteries
Zhang, Jia; Zheng, Tianye; Guo, Xiaoyang; Nguyen, Quoc Hung; Cheng, Ka-wai Eric; Lam, Kwok-ho; Rettenwander, Daniel; Jin, Wei; Boles, Steven Tyler (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024) -
Insights into the Sodiation Kinetics of Si and Ge Anodes for Sodium-Ion Batteries
zheng, jia; Zheng, Tianye; Cheng, Ka-wai; Lam, Kwok-ho; Boles, Steven (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Group IVA elements exhibit interesting Na storage capabilities due to the success of their Li alloy analogues. However, beyond hard carbon, they remain poorly understood as anodes for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Here, ... -
Simplifying Electrode Design for Lithium-Ion Rechargeable Cells
Zheng, Tianye; Boles, Steven (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In the race to increase lithium-ion cell manufacturing, labor and energy costs quickly ascend to become chief concerns for building new facilities, as conventional electrode designs need significant resources during ... -
Unlocking Room Temperature Formation of Li-Rich Phases in Aluminum Anodes for Li-ion Batteries
Zheng, Tianye; Zhang, Jia; Guo, Xiaoyang; Jin, Wei; Boles, Steven Tyler (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Aluminum (Al) has been an attractive anode candidate for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) since the 1970s. While the formation of β-LiAl is considered the origin of the Li storage capability in Al anodes, multiple Li-Al phases ... -
Utilization of Li-Rich Phases in Aluminum Anodes for Improved Cycling Performance through Strategic Thermal Control
Zheng, Tianye; Zhang, Jia; Jin, Wei; Boles, Steven (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Lithium-ion batteries with aluminum anodes had appeared to resolve critical dendrite issues of lithium metal cells in the 1970s. However, the poor cycling performance attributed to aluminum anodes would lead to their ...
