Alluaudite Nanoplates as Cathode Materials for Sodium Rechargeable Batteries

Overview Current lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery technology is limited in terms of energy capacity, charging speed, and manufacturing cost. We have invented new alluaudite compounds for use as cathode materials for sodium-ion (Na-ion) batteries, which will enable large-scale battery applications that are naturally abundant and sustainable. Market Opportunity The...

A Scalable Method for Preparing Cu Catalysts for Electrochemical CO2 Reduction to C2+ Products: Anodic Halogenation and Subsequent Surface Reconstruction

Overview One crucial way to mitigate the rising levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere and the harmful climate change effects caused by this increase is to capture CO2 and, if possible, convert the carbon therein to a useable product. However, there is currently no known process or technology to create, at scale, the electrocatalysts needed...

Plasmonic Interferometry Cytokine Detection

Plasmonic Interferometry Cytokine Detection Overview Optical interferometry is a valuable tool in fields ranging from fiber optics and biomedical imaging to astronomy. Plasmonics interferometry, which enables the guiding and manipulation of light in devices much smaller than the wavelength of the incident light, makes use of the ability of metal...

Electrochemical Reduction of CO2 at Copper Nanofoam Electrodes

Overview There is currently a great deal of interest in CO2 reduction as a way to capture carbon and use it to make industrial chemicals, most of which are still being made from fossil fuels. We have invented a copper nanofoam electrocatalytic electrode that reduces CO2 10–20% more effectively than smooth electropolished copper electrodes. Market...

Novel Microchannel Arrangement for Better Microfluidic Fuel Cell Performance

Overview In many conventional reactive microfluidic channels, (e.g., fuel cells), the reaction rate declines along the length of the microfluidic channel. In fuel cells, this can lead to declines in current and power density. We have invented a geometric arrangement for channels through which liquids or other fluids flow, for enhanced performance of...
