Two-Dimensional Layered Materials for Electrochemical Energy Storage and Conversion

The fast development of modern technology requires matured energy storage and conversion devices to meet the demands of the ever-growing portable electronic and electric vehicle industries. As a result, electrochemical energy strategies including energy storage and electrocatalysis have attracted broad attention lately. Thanks to the fast development of nanoscience and nanotechnology, various structures and materials have been proposed with outstanding electrochemical performance. Two-dimensional layered materials including graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides, and MXene, etc., have demonstrated enormous potential as electrode materials for energy storage and conversion due to their robust properties of high electrical conductivity, large surface area, and superior chemical stability. In this talk, the electrochemical property of two-dimensional layered materials will be introduced. Advanced two-dimensional materials and their hybrids for the applications of electrochemical energy storage and electrocatalysis will be discussed.
