Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4 ) Micron Powder for Li-ion Battery Cathode Applications

The performance of lithium-ion batteries that we have started to use in electronics almost every day, depends on the properties of the materials that they are produced of. Generally the materials that are used for the production of lithium ion batteries are expensive to be produced and they offer limited energy storage possibility.
Thus, it is very important to develop new types of lithium ion batteries which should be simplified, efficient and environmentally friendly. For this purpose lithium iron phosphate which discovered in the late 1990s and is currently the most studied cathode material for lithium-ion batteries.
Lithium iron phosphate is a desirable cathode material due to its outstanding features, like low cost, superior thermal stability, enhanced safety, high theoretical specific capacity and suitable charge/discharge voltage plateau. Since there is a strong P-O covalent bond in lithium iron phosphate, it is thermodynamically and dynamically stable even at temperature above 200°C.
To get the best result in terms of electronic conductivity and cycle life from lithium iron phosphate cathode material there are some options that can be applied. For example carbon coating of lithium iron phosphate cathode can be shown as the most efficient method found up to now to do this. The electrochemical properties of the final lithium iron phosphate - carbon composites are strongly dependent on the quality of the carbon coating – its amount, morphology, degree of graphitization, and the distribution on the surface. By the coating of carbon on lithium iron phosphate cathode, you can end up with a cathode material with superior properties.

Rundown about Silicon Oxide Wafer

The main insulating material used in micro-technology is Silicon Dioxide, which in chemical symbols is written as SiO2. In semiconductor technology, SiO2 thin film layers are mainly used as dielectric material film in transistors, capacitors (DRAM) or flash-memories. Silicon Oxide Wafers are produced using crystallization, solid state and other ultra-high purification processes such as sublimation. This process forms a cylindrical ingot, which is then sliced and polished to form wafers. Thermal oxide is a kind of "grown" oxide layer, compared to CVD deposited oxide layer, it has a higher uniformity, and higher dielectric strength, it is an excellent dielectric layer as an insulator . In most silicon- based devices, thermal oxide layer play an important role to pacify the silicon surface to act as doping barriers and as surface dielectrics. The simplest way to produce an insulating silicon oxide layers (SiO2) on silicon wafers is to oxidize silicon with oxygen, which ...

New Way of Deaf-Mute Communication with 3D Graphene

Image retrieved from: http://blogs.rsc.org/cc/2016/09/01/3d-graphene-adds-dimension-to-deaf%E2%80%93mute-communication/ Chinese scientists have developed wearable electronic device with conductive 3D graphene structure to translate sign language into written text. This technology can be applied by injecting graphene ink from a syringe under printed electronic field. For medical field, such as adhesive patches which determine heart, brain signal and neural activity, wearable and bio-integrated medical devices are very important. Due to noticeable properties of cast graphene, for example a 2D honeycomb lattice, excellent mechanical and electrical behaviors, Graphene has an important material in warble technology. However, it is difficult to preserve advantages of Graphene material in a 3D material which has an information about forces from every angle. Yanlin Song  and co-workers at the University of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, and Shenyang Jianzhu University...
