Kolloquium der GDCh an der Universität Greifswald

Das Institut für Biochemie lädt gemeinsam mit dem Ortsverband der Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker zu einem Kolloquium der GDCh. Dr. Snehangshu Patra, Evry/Frankreich, hält einen Vortrag zum Thema "Electrochemistry of Materials: (bio) electrochemical systems for energy and sensors".

Abstract: Electrochemistry plays an important role in solving some of the today’s existing challenges in the domain of energy storage and conversion, and biomedical devices. With the depletion of fossil fuel and enhancement of environmental pollution, a paradigm shift has occurred towards “green technologies”. In the present talk, I would share my research and innovation in the areas of Li+-ion battery (LIB), and bioelectrochemical systems. In the domain of LIB, a long standing challenge is to synthesize electroactive materials at low-temperature which has minimum possible environmental foot print and lowest possible cycle life cost. I hereby will discuss my research results on synthesis of anatase TiO2 at room-temperature. The physic-electrochemical, in situ and ex situ, experiments suggest that the room-temperature synthesized anatase TiO2 shows exceptional resistant against particles coarsening with temperature, entailing a significant delay in the anatase to rutile phase transition, prolonging up to 1000°C in air. A noticeable alteration of the phase stability diagram in terms of lithium insertion is also experienced and will be discussed in details in this talk. Later part of the talk, I will also be involved in discussing research results on application of highly porous metal organic framework (MOF) in bioelectrochemical system such as biosensor, biocatalytic oxygen reduction and finally few research results on ongoing experiments on microbial fuel cell.

Search / advanced search of the idw archives
Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
