Effect of 2D MXene material on Electrochemical energy storage for Lithium-Ion Batteries and Supercapacitors

Supercapacitors with high energy-density, power, and long cycle-life have potential to outperform traditional batteries owing to their fast charging-discharging speed. This project aims to investigate a new class of two-dimensional materials, i.e. MXenes, as high-capacity pseudocapacitive material. Most of the current understanding of MXenes comes from titanium carbides whereas other materials are less-understood which will…

Observing Superconductivity in two-dimensional (2D) MXene and its possible application in Super-Spintronics.

Nearly two years ago, the discovery of superconductivity in Nobel prize winner ‘graphene’ developed a new direction for scientific research. Superconductivity in 2D materials attracted much attention to the scientific community owing to the unique features of the effect in 2D materials namely the possibility of anisotropic dependence of superconductivity along two dimensions. In the…
