Our research activities centers on materials for energy applications, primarily in supercapacitors and batteries. The principal aim is to gain a comprehensive understanding of the interactions occuring at the juncture of electrodes and electrolytes, which embody intricate phenomena within electrochemical devices. The interactions between the electrodes and the ions within the electrolyte play a pivotal role in determining the device’s performance. Mastering the interface processes poses a real challenge in electrochemistry, and it is crucial for the development of electrochemical devices.
In addressing this challenge, our contribution involves the implementation of advanced characterization tools for the in situ or operando analysis of energy storage devices. Our primary research domains focus on:
- Alkali metal-ion batteries (Li+, Na+)
- Capacitive Charge Storage
- Aqueous Multivalent Charge Storage (Zn2+, Al3+)
By employing these sophisticated techniques, we aim to enhance our understanding of the intricacies associated with these energy storage systems, ultimately contributing to advancements in the field.
