New Paper Accepted in ACS Applied Energy Materials

Congratulations to Dr. Jyoti Pandey and collaborators on the acceptance of a new paper in ACS Applied Energy Materials.

Regulating Polysulfide Conversion on Fe-Nₓ Single-Atom Catalysts Supported on Graphitic Carbon Nitride Revealed by Semi-In Situ XPS of Li-S Batteries

The study combines semi-in situ XPS measurements, electrochemical characterization, and computational modeling to reveal how Fe-Nₓ single-atom catalysts supported on graphitic carbon nitride regulate polysulfide conversion in lithium-sulfur batteries.
