Thickness-Dependent Permeability of Molecular Layer-By-Layer Polyamide Membranes

August 28, 2020
Author(s)
William D. Mulhearn, Vladimir Oleshko, Christopher Stafford
We present the thickness-dependent permeability of highly crosslinked polyamide (PA) membranes formed by a molecular layer-by-layer (mLbL) deposition process. The deposition allows for the synthesis of extremely smooth, uniform PA films of tunable

Twist Angle-Dependent Atomic Reconstruction and Moire Patterns in Transition Metal Dichalcogenide Heterostructures

March 13, 2020
Author(s)
Matthew R. Rosenberger, Hsun-Jen Chuang, Vladimir Oleshko, Madeleine Phillips, Kathleen M. McCreary, Saujan V. Sivaram, C. Stephen Hellberg, Berend T. Jonker
Van der Waals layered materials, such as the transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), are an exciting class of materials with weak interlayer bonding which enables one to create so-called van der Waals heterostructures (vdWH). One promising attribute of

Engineered Sulfur-MoS2-Graphene Heterostructure Cathodes for Diagnostics of Nanoscale Electrochemical Processes in High Energy Density Li-S Batteries

August 5, 2019
Author(s)
Vladimir P. Oleshko, William R. McGehee, Saya Takeuchi, Siyuan Zhang, Andrei A. Kolmakov, Jabez J. McClelland, Christopher L. Soles
Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries have recently attracted enormous attention because of high theoretical specific energy (2600 Wh kg-1) and high specific capacity (1672 mAhg-1), as well as the low cost, natural abundance, and nontoxicity of elemental sulfur

Direct-write Lithiation of Silicon Using a Focused Ion Beam of Li+

July 8, 2019
Author(s)
William R. McGehee, Evgheni Strelcov, Vladimir P. Oleshko, Christopher L. Soles, Nikolai B. Zhitenev, Jabez J. McClelland
Electrochemical processes that govern the performance of lithium ion batteries involve numerous parallel reactions and interfacial phenomena that complicate the microscopic understanding of these systems. As a new way to study the behavior of ion transport

ELECTRON ENERGY-LOSS SPECTROSCOPY AND IMAGING

March 12, 2019
Author(s)
Vladimir P. Oleshko
This article describes electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS), energy-filtering transmission electron microscopy (EFTEM) and electron spectroscopic diffraction (ESD) in a transmission electron microscope (TEM) or in a scanning transmission electron

From Microparticles to Nanowires and Back: Radical Transformations in Plated Li Metal Morphology Revealed via in situ scanning electron microscopy

February 3, 2018
Author(s)
Alexander Yulaev, Vladimir P. Oleshko, Paul M. Haney, Jialin Liu, Yue Qi, Talin Alec, Leite Marina, Andrei A. Kolmakov
Li metal is the preferred anode material for all-solid-state Li batteries due to its high theoretical capacity and low voltage vs. standard hydrogen electrode. However, stable plating and stripping of Li metal in contact with a solid electrolyte at high

Analytical Multimode Scanning and Transmission Electron Imaging and Tomography of Multiscale Structural Architectures of Sulfur Copolymer-Based Composite Cathodes for Next Generation High-Energy Density Li-S Batteries

December 17, 2016
Author(s)
Vladimir P. Oleshko, Andrew A. Herzing, Christopher L. Soles, Jared J. Griebel, Woo J. Chung, Adam G. Simmonds, Jeff Pyun
Poly(sulfur-random-(1,3-diisopropenylbenzene) copolymers synthesized via inverse vulcanization represent an emerging class of electrochemically active polymers recently used in cathodes for Li-S batteries, capable of realizing enhanced capacity retention

Communication-Comparison of Nanoscale Focused Ion Beam and Electrochemical Lithiation in beta-Sn Microspheres

Saya Takeuchi, William R. McGehee, Jennifer L. Schaefer, Truman M. Wilson, Kevin A. Twedt, Christopher L. Soles, Vladimir P. Oleshko, Eddie H. Chang, Jabez J. McClelland
The development of Li focused ion beams (Li-FIB) enables controlled Li ion insertion into materials with nanoscale resolution. We take the first step toward establishing the relevance of the Li-FIB for studies of ion dynamics in electrochemically active

Electron Microscopy and Nanoscopy: Analytical

December 5, 2016
Author(s)
