CHEM 719 Adv in Energy Storage Material
This course covers the most recent progress in advanced materials for energy storage systems. The main objective of the course is to make the students aware of how advanced functional materials play critical role in energy storage systems such as secondary batteries, supercapacitors, thermal storage. Materials for hydrogen storage and mechanical energy technology. The students will be able understand energy storage properties of advanced materials. After selecting a topic of interest, students will independently conduct an in-depth critical review of the literature and write a review article in the style of a professional body review journal (e.g. Acc. Chem. Res., Chem. Rev., Chem. Soc. Rev.). The articles will be made available to all students who will offer peer feedback. Each student will deliver a seminar on their chosen topic to the whole group who will peer-assess the seminar and provide feedback.
