Nanocycle at Nano-in-Macro Interface

Research Project Outline

Contacts of nano and macro structures, "nano-in-macro", can form specific phases which should govern cyclic transport of ions and electrons moving into and out from the contact phase, "nanocycle". The nanocycle at nano-in-macro is the key issue to be unveiled in order to make devices of a higher efficiency, i.e., lithium ion batteries and catalysts. Nano-in-macro structures and nanocycles are studied by the 50pm electron microscopy of the world best resolution.
