Jeonbuk National University team develops bifunctional material for energy production, storage
A Jeonbuk National University research team has developed a bifunctional energy material that can both produce hydrogen and store energy. The university said Monday that the team, led by professor Kim Hee-dae of the Department of Semiconductor Science and Technology, synthesized a heterostructured composite by combining nickel-cobalt selenide with titanium carbide MXene, a two-dimensional…
A research team at Jeonbuk National University has created a unique energy material capable of generating hydrogen while also storing power. According to the university, the project, headed by Professor Kim Hee-dae from the Department of Semiconductor Science and Technology, involved synthesizing a special composite by merging nickel-cobalt selenide with titanium carbide MXene.
MXene is a two-dimensional material renowned for its exceptional electrical conductivity. The team also conducted a thorough investigation into converting biomass waste into valuable quantum dots and examining their potential uses. The findings were published in two prestigious journals: Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews and Advanced Composites and Hybrid Materials.
Lead authors Kirti Bhardwaj and S. R. Shingte, both from Jeonbuk National University, were joined by Kim as the corresponding author. This research was a collaborative effort with researchers from Shivaji University and New College in India.
