【报告内容简介】

    Advanced (scanning) transmission electron microscopy ((S)TEM) techniques have been intensively applied to study the materials for energy storage.  With/Combining different TEM techniques (including in-situ TEM and diffraction, HAADF-STEM, and STEM-electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS)), researchers are able to probe local structural and chemical information of electrode materials, at a resolution of nanoscale. This talk will focus on my recent work on using in-situ and analytical TEM to characterize the conversion-reaction oxide material (Fe₃O₄) for electrode of lithium ion batteries(Fe₃O₄)[1-2], and Pt based nanocatalysts for fuel cell[3,4]. The dynamical process of the redox reaction of Fe₃O₄ revealed by in-situ TEM may help us to understand how reaction pathways affect the batteries’ kinetic properties. For Pt based electrocatalyst for fuel cell, the strain coupling at interfaces is highlighted for its crucial role in determining both the rate of electrochemical reaction and the catalytic activity.
