Session: Nanomaterials for Energy Storage I (2011 Annual Meeting)

Monday, October 17, 2011: 8:30 AM

102 F (Minneapolis Convention Center)

Description:

This session seeks contributions pertaining to the development of nanomaterials for energy storage applications. Nano-issues in hydrogen storage materials for on-board and off-board applications and in electrochemical energy storage devices such as batteries and ultracapacitors are leading examples. Synthesis and characterization approaches, studies of kinetics, energy-release mechanisms and catalytic activity in these and other energy storage materials by experimental, theoretical and computational methods are welcome in this session. Invited speakers include: Yi Cui, Stanford University; Andreas Stein, Univ. of Minnesota; Linden Archer, Cornell Univ.; Brian Korgel, Univ. of Texas, Austin.
