Author(s)
Cherno Jaye, Conan Weiland, Daniel Fischer, John Ponis, Nicholas Jerla, George Agbeworvi, Saul Perez-Beltran, Nitin Kumar, Kenna Ashen, Jialu Li, Edrick Wang, Michelle A. Smeaton, Fatme Jardali, Sarbajeet Chakraborty, Patrick J. Shamberger, Katherine L. Jungjohann, Lu Ma, Jinghua Guo, G Sambandamurthy, Xiaofeng Qian, Sarbajit Banerjee
: Building artificial neurons and synapses is key to achieving the promise of energy efficiency and acceleration envisioned for brain-inspired information processing. Emulating the spiking behavior of biological neurons in physical materials requires

Effect of Tribologically-Induced Changes in Surface Termination of Silicon-Containing Diamond-Like Carbon Coatings on the Resistance to Biomolecule Adsorption

August 1, 2022
Author(s)
Cherno Jaye, Daniel A. Fischer, Zixuan Li, Jennings Z. Ye, Jieming Yan, Nicolas Molina, Hsu-Ming Lien, Robert Chrostowksi, Jianliang Lin, Mangolini Mangolini
Silicon-containing diamond-like carbon (DLC) is a class of thin-film materials with excellent mechanical properties, high thermal stability, and good tribological performance over a wide range of environmental conditions. While non-alloyed/non-doped DLCs

Evidence that gecko setae are coated with an ordered nanometer-thin lipid film

June 9, 2022
Author(s)
Cherno Jaye, Daniel A. Fischer, Mette Rasmussen, Katinka Holler, Joe Baio, Stanislav Gorb, Tobias Weidner
Motivated by the fascination of gecko adhesion based on the fibrous setae at the tips of their toe pads and their potential for biomimetic applications, the adhesion mechanism has been studied in detail. While the mechanism has been shown to be based on

Multimodal X-ray Probing of the Capacity Fade Mechanisms of Nickel Rich NMC - Progress and Outlook

April 22, 2022
Author(s)
Cherno Jaye, Daniel A. Fischer, Calvin Quilty, Patrick West, Wenzao Li, Mikaela Dunkin, Garrett Wheeler, Steven Ehrlich, Lu Ma, Esther Takeuchi, Kenneth Takeuchi, David Bock, Amy Marschilok
NMC is a commercially successful Li-ion battery cathode due to its high energy density; however, its delivered capacity must be intentionally limited to achieve capacity retention over extended cycling. To design next-generation NMC batteries with longer

Improved capacity and reversibility of solid-state Li-O2 battery through water-vapour-assisted cathode reaction

April 8, 2022
Author(s)
Cherno Jaye, Daniel A. Fischer, Mokwon Kim, Hyunpyo Lee, Hyuk Jae Kwon, Seong-Min Bak, Gabin Lee, Jung O. Park, Dong-Hwa Seo, Song Bok Ma, Dongmin Im
The development of a cathode for solid-state lithium-oxygen batteries has been hindered in practice by a low capacity and limited cycle life despite their potential for high energy density. Here, a previously unexplored strategy is proposed wherein the

The Structure of Lipids and Keratin in Adhesive Gecko Setae Determined by NEXAFS Imaging

March 1, 2022
Author(s)
Daniel A. Fischer, Cherno Jaye, Katinka R. Holler, Mette H. Rasmussen, Joe E. Baio, Stanislav N. Gorb, Tobias Weidner
Geckos have the astonishing ability to climb on vertical surfaces due to the adhesive properties of fibrous setae at the tips of their toe pads. While the adhesion mechanism principle, based on van-der-Waals interactions of myriads of spatula located at

Elucidating Cathode Degradation Mechanisms in NMC811/Graphite Cells Under Fast Charge Rates Using Operando Synchrotron Characterization

February 17, 2022
Author(s)
Cherno Jaye, Daniel A. Fischer, Calvin Quilty, Patrick West, Garrett Wheeler, Lisa Housel, Christoph Kern, Killian Tallman, Lu Ma, Steven Ehrlich, Kenneth Takeuchi, David Bock, Amy Marschilok, Esther Takeuchi
Li-ion batteries capable of extreme fast charging (XFC) are in demand to facilitate widespread EV adoption. While the impact of fast charge on the negative electrode has been studied, degradation of state-of-the-art LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 (NMC811) under XFC

Lessons learned from FeSb2O4 on stereoactive lone pairs as a design principle for anion insertion

October 20, 2021

Wasif Zaheer, George Agbeworvi, Saul Perez-Beltran, Justin Andrews, Yierpan Aierken, Conan Weiland, Cherno Jaye, Young-Sang Yu, David Shapiro, Sirine Fakra, Daniel A. Fischer, Jinghua Guo, David Prendergrast, Sarbajit Banerjee
Fluoride-ion batteries are an attractive energy storage concept analogous to lithium-ion batteries but feature an inverted paradigm where anions (fluoride-ion), and not cations, are the principal charge carriers. Insertion hosts that can reversibly insert

Chemical Analysis of HfO 2 / Si (100) Film Systems Exposed to NH 3 Thermal Processing
