| Abstract Scope |
Carbon and boron based materials such as fullerenes and the closo-borane class of structures have received considerable attention in recent years for use as active materials in energy storage and conversion applications. Their use in these applications is attributed to the ease at which their optical and electrochemical properties can be fine-tuned and tailored. This has led to their use as materials for solid state electrolytes, photoluminescent nanomaterials, hydrogen storage, and as electrodes in alkali ion batteries. Through a series of theoretical and experimental efforts it has also been demonstrated that many of these materials are multi-modal and can be utilized as the foundation for new materials with unique properties. This presentation will cover these findings and on-going developments in this class of materials. |
