Structure-mediated adsorption and interfacial ordering is key to designing ligands for extractions with enhanced selectivity and efficiency.
Manipulation of matter at the nanoscale in functional nanostructures allows to harness nanoscale and even quantum phenomena, with applications in electronics, plasmonics, optoelectronics, and sensing.
Scientific Achievement
A self-limiting phase transformation was discovered between a solid electrolyte (SE) and Li-metal using real time, in situ scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM).
