Scalable Synthesis and Assembly of Novel Ordered Hybrid NanostructuresAbstractThe objectives of this project are three-fold: (1) to fabricate novel ordered hybrid nanostructures; (2) to understand the process-structure-property relationship of the novel hybrids; and (3) to test the hypothesis that the novel hybrid nanostructures have great potential for energy storage. The PI plans to investigate a novel scalable process to fabricate such a new nanostructure through a creative combination of chemical synthesis and self-assembly. The process-driven morphology evolution will be explored. Particularly, the processing physics and chemistry will be studied to understand process-structure-property relationship. The hydrogen adsorption and electrochemical characterization of novel hybrids will also be examined to understand the potential for hydrogen and electrical energy storage.If successful, this research will design and fabricate novel nanostructured materials, and significantly advance fundamental knowledge in scalable nanofabrication of new structures for high-efficiency energy storage and lay a foundation for transport and utilization of clean energy. The expected results will provide a fundamental understanding on the relationship between novel nanostructure and bulk properties, and enable a feasible way to bridge the gap between nanoscale building blocks and bulk properties. The results of this project will be broadly disseminated through annual reports, international conferences, and publications in high-profile academic journals.

摘要本课题的目标有三个：(1)制备新型有序杂化纳米结构；(2)了解新型杂化材料的工艺-结构-性能关系；(3)验证新型混合纳米结构具有巨大储能潜力的假设。PI计划研究一种新的可扩展工艺，通过化学合成和自组装的创造性结合来制造这种新的纳米结构。将探讨过程驱动的形态演化。特别是，过程物理和化学将被研究，以了解过程-结构-性质的关系。研究人员还将研究新型混合材料的氢吸附和电化学特性，以了解其在氢和电能存储方面的潜力。如果成功，本研究将设计和制造新型纳米结构材料，并显著推进高效储能新结构可扩展纳米制造的基础知识，为清洁能源的运输和利用奠定基础。预期的结果将提供对新型纳米结构和体性能之间关系的基本理解，并为弥合纳米级构建块和体性能之间的差距提供可行的方法。该项目的成果将通过年度报告、国际会议和知名学术期刊的出版物广泛传播。
