A New Editorial Role at Materials Research Express
I am honored to join the Editorial Board of Materials Research Express (MRX), published by IOP Publishing. MRX is an international open-access journal dedicated to advancing materials science research across a broad range of topics, including materials design, characterization, fabrication, and technological applications. The journal provides a platform for rapid dissemination of scientifically rigorous research and supports an inclusive materials research community. I look f
Our new paper in Journal of Energy Stroage (IF:10.7) "Binder Engineering for Prelithiated SiOx Anodes in Lithium-Ion Batteries"
Silicon monoxide (SiOx) is a promising anode material for lithium-ion batteries owing to its high theoretical capacity, yet its application is limited by low initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) caused by irreversible lithium consumption. Prelithiation is an effective strategy to address this issue, although the influence of binder chemistry during prelithiation has not been systematically clarified. In this work, the effects of binder formulation and prelithiation strategy on
