Research Project

We are currently focusing on different research areas 
1. Functional polymeric materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIB)
2. Ionic thermoelectric (iTE) systems​
3. Layer-by-layer assembly (LbL) for electrode materials

Ionic Thermoelectric

Driven by Soret effect, iTE can convert heat to eelctricity superior to a conventional electronic thermoelectric material.

02

Lithium-Ion Battery

Silicon anode is one of the most promising anode materials owing to its high-naturally abundance and excellent specific capacity (3597 mAh/g). However, extremely large volume expansion during battery cycling operation limited its application. A self-healing binder can overcome such a problem.

Layer-by-Layer Assembly

Layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly is a versatile technique for fabricating multilayer thin films. This technique utilizes various interactions, such as electrostatic adsorption, charge–transfer interactions, hydrogen bonding, coordination bonding, and covalent bonding, to form multilayer films.
