Operando XES studies of Prussian Blue Analogue Battery Materials

X射线发射光谱（XES）提供了位点选择性表征，这将被应用于普鲁士蓝类似物材料的研究，这些材料在可充电电池应用中作为离子存储（锂，钠，钾和锌）阴极。学生将准备一个材料库，使用紫外可见光谱，XRD，SEM，EXAFS和XES对其进行分析。然后将在操作条件下研究更有前途的材料，以提供这些电池材料中结构性能关系的见解。

X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) provides site selective characterisation and this will be applied to the study of Prussian blue analogue materials, which have applications as ion storage (lithium, sodium, potassium, and zinc) cathodes in rechargeable battery applications. The student will prepare a library of materials, characterise them using UV-visible spectroscopy, XRD, SEM, EXAFS, and XES. The more promising materials will then be studied under operando conditions to provide insights in to structure property relationships in such battery materials.
