Add to basketThis book explores the fundamental properties of a wide range of energy storage and conversion materials, covering mainstream theoretical and experimental studies and their applications in green energy. It presents a thorough investigation of diverse physical, chemical, and material properties of rechargeable batteries, supercapacitors, solar cells, and fuel cells, covering the development of theoretical simulations, machine learning, high-resolution experimental measurements, and excellent device performance.
• Covers potential energy storage (rechargeable batteries and supercapacitors) and energy conversion (solar cells and fuel cells) materials.
• Develops theoretical predictions and experimental observations under a unified quasi-particle framework.
• Illustrate up-to-date calculation results and experimental measurements.
• Describes successful synthesis, fabrication, and measurements, as well as potential applications and near future challenges.
Promoting a deep understanding of the basic science, application engineering, and commercial products, this work is appropriate for senior graduate students and researchers in materials, chemical, and energy engineering and related disciplines.
Ngoc Thanh Thuy Tran obtained her Ph.D. in Physics in 2017 from the National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), Taiwan. Afterward, she began to work as a postdoctoral researcher and then an assistant researcher at Hierarchical Green-Energy Materials (Hi-GEM) Research Center, NCKU. Her scientific interest is focused on the fundamental (electronic, magnetic, and thermodynamic) properties of 2D materials and rechargeable battery materials by means of the first-principles calculations.

If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel with contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to us or Chiron Media, PO Box 318, OX10 1DW, Wallingford, United Kingdom, 44 8008085306, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of cancellation
The right of cancellation does not apply to:
