Challenges in CO2 conversion to selective hydrocarbons:

Using graphene oxides and related 2D hybrids as examples

Li-Chyong Chen

Center for Condensed Matter Sciences, National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan

* [email protected]

Abstract

Global climate warming and environment pollution have stimulated scientists to develop innovative

high-efficiency and eco-friendly energy technologies, as alternatives to the conventional combustion-

based technologies currently used in many power plants and transportation vehicles. The vast amount of

carbon dioxide (CO2) emission from the conventional coal-burning power plants is a significant

environmental issue. Hence, photocatalytic conversion of CO2 to hydrocarbons makes possible

simultaneously harvesting solar energy for production of fuels or useful chemicals, as well as reducing

CO2 for a greener society, two birds with one stone for the pressing global energy and environmental

problems of our time.

Here, I will present the challenges on CO2 reduction, especially, the materials that can function

towards efficient photocatalytic conversion of CO2 to selective hydrocarbons close to practical

application. Case studies using graphene oxides (GOs) and their related 2D hybrids, as photo-catalysts,

will be presented. Several approaches have been employed to synthesize GOs and reduced GOs (rGOs)

with tunable bandgap and band alignment with respect to the CO2 reduction level. The functionalities of

the GOs/rGOs were investigated by UV-Vis, cyclic voltammetry, and x-ray photoemission spectroscopy.

Under visible light, the photocatalytic conversion of CO2 to methanol of GOs/rGOs is several-fold

higher than that of TiO2 (e.g., commercial P-25). Further, metal and metal sulfides, especially the 2D

materials such as MoS2, as well as optically active polymers, were deposited onto GO as co-catalysts or

sensitizers, to enhance the photocatalysis reaction. Besides methanol, other selective hydrocarbons

including acetaldehyde and ethanol were also detected. Total solar to fuel yield of ~200 times

enhancement over that of P-25 has been achieved. In all these GOs-2D hybrids, the photo-catalytic

performance is always much better than that of constituent component when used alone. Detailed

preparation and characterization of the catalysts will be presented. The role and interplay of the

constituent components will also be discussed.

Abstract

Nowadays the electrochemical double layer capacitors (EDLCs) – or supercapacitor have a big

range of application in the start-stop devices and vehicles. In this work, we investigated the

properties and electoral behavior of some metal oxide/ nano carbon based composite using as

cathode materials for hybrid capacitor. We have synthesized the different oxides (MnO2, LMO,

LTO…) and studied the structure, the morphology of materials. The nanocarbon such as carbon

graphite, carbon nanotubes, super P (Timcal) and carbon blacks (Vulcan) were used to mix at

different ratios to make the electrode. The half-cell and full-cell capacitors have been assembled

and then have been studied the charge-discharge property at different scan rates: 1, 10, 20, 50

mV.s-1

by Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) and Galvanostatic charge/discharge. The results showed

that these materials could be used in improving the safety for novel supercapacitors with good

performance and durability.

Keywords: hybrid capacitor, metal oxide, nano carbon, specific capacity.

Abstract

The search for high performance thermoelectric materials at various temperature range is highly

demanded due to the energy/environmental issues. In this work, Mg2(Si;Sn) samples of different

Si/Sn ratio were prepared by ball milling method followed by hot pressing up to 750 °C. A

series of experiments have been carried out to improve the thermoelectric performance of the

samples via controlling of the Stoichiometry and annealing temperature. Detailed

characterization including Hall measurement, Raman, TEM, XPS, UPS, all in different

temperatures, have been carried out to elucidate the mechanism of the enhanced thermoelectric

performance. Further incorporation of dopants such as Ge and Sb has been implemented to

enhance the thermoelectric performance up to a ZT of 1.37 at 450 °C.

Abstract

With the aim of introduction a new inexpensive co-adsorbent to improve solar cell performance,

the influence of nicotinic acid (NTA) used as a co-adsorbent in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) was

investigated. The findings showed that low concentrations of NTA (<10 mM) increased the N719

ruthenium dye loading on the TiO2 electrode surface by 10–12%, whereas higher concentrations of NTA

lowered the dye loading. The adsorption of NTA onto the TiO2 electrode surface was studied by

attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron

spectroscopy, and the blocking effect of NTA toward electron transfer between the electrode and 1,4-

dicyanonaphthalene (redox couple electrolyte probe) was investigated by cyclic voltammetry.

Subsequently, the performance of NTA in functional DSCs was evaluated by current–voltage (J–V) DSC

characterization and compared with that of DSCs fabricated with two well-established co-adsorbents i.e.,

chenodeoxycholic acid (CDA) and octadecylphosphonic acid (OPA). The findings showed that under

optimized co-adsorbent concentration (1 mM NTA, 0.03 mM CDA, 0.015 mM OPA), the efficiency of

the corresponding solar cells increased to the same extent. Specifically, the use of NTA at optimum

concentration improved the efficiency of the resulting DSC from 3.14 to 5.02%.

Abstract

Colloidal pyrite FeS2 nanocrystals (NCs), which are abundant and nontoxic in nature, have

attracted attention for developing low-cost fabrications of catalytic electrode and photovoltaic

devices using solution processes. Soluble pyrite FeS2 NCs were successfully synthesized within

controlled sizes. In the photovoltaic applications, we have demonstrated a polymer solar cell

based on poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT)/FeS2NCs hybrid and a heterojunction photodiode

consisting of a device structure of ITO/ZnO/FeS2NC/MoO3/Au. The both devices exhibited an

excellent photoresponse with a spectral response extended to NIR wavelengths. The promising

optoelectronic performance of the pyrite device has provided a crucial step toward the success in

producing colloidal pyrite NCs thin films for low-cost and large-area photoelectronics. Besides,

we also demonstrated other promising photovoltaic applications using FeS2 NCs pyrite ink to

fabricate a cost-effective counter electrode (CE) in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). FeS2 NC

has exhibited excellent electrochemical catalytic activity and remarkable stability in replacing

expensive Pt catalysts as a low-cost CE material in DSSCs. Devices using FeS2 NC-based CE

show promising power conversion efficiencies comparable to those using the Pt CE. Overall

results indicate that earth-abundant FeS2 NC is an interesting candidate of light absorbent and

catalysts, which can substantially lower the cost of photovoltaic and DSSCs in future commercial

applications. Other applications of FeS2 NCs for metal ion battery and hydrogen evolution

reaction will be also discussed in this talk.

Abstract

We investigate the effects of external electric fields on the electronic properties of bilayer

armchair graphene nano-ribbons. Using atomistic simulations with Tight Binding calculations

and the Non-equilibrium Green’s function formalism, we demonstrate that (i) in semi-metallic

structures, vertical fields impact more effectively than transverse fields in terms of opening

larger bandgap, showing a contrary phenomenon compared to that demonstrated in previous

studies in bilayer zigzag graphene nano-ribbons; (ii) in some semiconducting structures, if

transverse fields just show usual effects as in single layer armchair graphene nano-ribbons where

the bandgap is suppressed when varying the applied potential, vertical fields exhibit an

anomalous phenomenon that the bandgap can be enlarged, i.e., for a structure of width of 16

dimer lines, the bandgap increases from 0.255 eV to the maximum value of 0.40 eV when a

vertical bias equates 0.96 V applied. Although the combined effect of two fields does not enlarge

the bandgap as found in bilayer zigzag graphene nano-ribbons, it shows that the mutual effect

can be useful to reduce faster the bandgap in semiconducting bilayer armchair graphene nano-

ribbons. These results are important to fully understand the effects of electric fields on bilayer

graphene nano-ribbons (AB stacking) and also suggest appropriate uses of electric gates with

different edge orientations.

Abstract

To determine the effect of structures of organo-phosphorus flame retardants (FRs) on the

flame retardancy, a series of organo-phosphorus compounds was prepared and the chemical

structure of the products were confirmed by 1H- and 31P-NMR. Thermogravimetric analysis

(TGA) results reveal that organo-phosphorus compounds synthesized in this study show only one

step degradation in the range of 250 – 400 oC and work in the gas phase rather than do in the

condensed phase. The obtained products were blended with acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene

copolymer (ABS) or polycarbonate (PC) and their flame retardancies were evaluated using UL-

94 vertical test. From UL-94 test results, V-0 ratings are achieved at 15-35 wt % loading of FR

for ABS and at much lesser amount of loading for PC. In both cases, it is clearly observed that

the flame retardancy is strongly dependent on the P content of FR.

Two-dimensional materials have attracted attention from both fundamental aspects and

application. In this work, we will present some of our recent effort to using first-principles based

computational tools to design two-dimensional materials for energy applications. We have

explored new possible ionic two dimensional materials and discover some that have not been

synthesized yet. Furthermore, their potential applications to adsorption of Li (for battery and

hydrogen storage) and hydrogen evolution reactions (HER) are also examined.

Abstract

Since commercialization, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are the first-choice source of

electrochemical energy storage for portable electronic devices because of high energy density, high

voltage, and long-life cycle. On the other hand, sodium-ion batteries (NIBs) have recently received many

great attractions as a next generation power source storage beyond LIBs. Theoretically, NIBs may not

reach the energy density of LIBs because sodium is more than 3 times heavier than lithium and the

standard electrochemical potential of sodium (2.71 V) is lower than lithium (3.04 V) versus SHE.

However, more suitable applications of NIBs would be expected in the presence of a smart grid

systemwhere the operation cost and longevity of the battery are more important aspects of a whole

system. Our research works have been focused on the prospective transition metallic oxides in various

structures (layered, tunnel, amorphous…) which could reversible intercalate both of lithium and sodium

ions. For example, vanadium oxide V2O5 in bilayered structure showed an insertion-extraction reversible

of 1,5 ion Li+ (~350 mAh/g) in range of 1,5-4 V (vs. Li

+/Li) and 1,2 ion Na

+ (~200 mAh/g) in range of 1-

4 V (vs. Na+/Na). The oxide Na0.44MnO2 with tunnel structure exhibited a specific capacity of 160 mAh/g

in lithium-ion cells and 130 mAh/g in sodium-ion cells.

Abstract

Nanocomposite based on graphene is one of the major areas of current research. In this study,

polystyrene/graphene nanocomposite was fabricated by in-situ micro-emulsion polymerization

combined with melting or solution blend. Graphene (RGO) used in this study was reduced by

system of HI and CH3COOH acid which have been published previously. TEM images of PS/

RGOHI-AcOH nanocomposites showed the exfoliated structure of graphene in the PS matrix

due to the strong interaction between RGOHI-AcOH and polystyrene (PS). In particular, the

sheet resistance of PS/RGOHI-AcOH is 482 Ω/ (with ~20wt% RGOHI-AcOH content) and its

decomposition temperature is 442oC (with 2w% RGOHI-AcOH content) compared with 416

oC

of pure PS and the glass transition temperature of nanocomposite (with 0.5w%RGOHI-AcOH

content) increased 20oC compared with the pure PS. In addition, the influence of graphene in

rheological property, creep resistant, recovery stress and mechanical properties of polystyrene

was also investigated in giving the interesting results.

Ballistic Thermal Conduction and Thermoelectrics

Abstract

Thermoelectric materials are always poor thermal conductors. Indeed, various phonon scattering

mechanisms are now used to shorten the phonon mean free paths and to create the thermal

resistances. However, the effects were thought to be incompatible with ballistic thermal

conduction, which was believed to exclusively occur at ultralow temperatures. Here I will

provide experimental evidence that unprecedented ballistic thermal conduction over 8.3μm can

be found in SiGe nanowires at room temperature. We find that phonon localizations induced by

alloy scatterings in SiGe nanowires result in an unexpected low percentage of excited phonons

participating the heat conduction process in these SiGe nanowires, thereby lengthen the average

phonon mean free path. The ballistic thermal conduction is also supported by other unusual

phenomena, including non-additive thermal resistance in series and contact thermal resistances

being independent of contact areas. The discovery could enable wave-engineering of phonons at

room temperature and stimulate many new designs of thermoelectric devices.

Abstract

The hierarchical structures of ETFE-PEMs were investigated using small- and ultra-small-angle

X-ray scattering experiments (SAXS and USAXS) (Fig. 1). The ETFE-PEMs with ion exchange

capacities (IECs) < 2.4 mmol/g possessed conducting graft domains around lamellar crystals,

with a d-spacing of 21.8–29.1 nm, and oriented crystallites (lamellar grains) with short and long

correlation distances of 218–320 nm and 903–1124 nm, respectively. The membranes with IECs

> 2.7 mmol/g showed a new phase of crystallite network domains with a d-range of 225–256 nm,

indicating a phase transition from oriented crystallite to crystallite network structures in the IEC

range of 2.4–2.7 mmol/g. Noted that for the ETFE-PEMs with high IECs, higher conductivity at

30% RH and compatible tensile strengths at 100% RH and 80 °C, compared with Nafion,

originated from the well-interconnected ion channels around the crystallites and the remaining

lamellar crystals and crystallites, respectively.

Abstract

Polyaniline (PANI) and Vanadium oxide were coated on carbon nanotube within its

nanoporous sheet (buckypaper) by in situ electrochemical polymerization. The composite was

then used to fabricate aqueous supercapacitor showing high capacitance and extended working

voltage. Outstanding capacitance of 399 F/g could be achieved at high weight loading of PANI,

which is favored for high volumetric capacitance of the device. This is due to the fact that the

composites consisting of carbon materials and electro-active species with highly specific surface

area, significantly enhance the energy density of supercapacitors, and such supercapacitors

exhibit both double-layer and pseudocapacitance.

Abstract

In this paper, we investigated the effect of single and multi-dopants on thermoelectrical properties

of the host ZnO films. Incorporation of single dopant Ga in the ZnO films improved the conductivity and

mobility but lowered the Seebeck coefficient. Dual Ga and In doped ZnO thin films shows slightly

decreased electrical conductivity but improved Seebeck coefficient. The variation of thermoelectric

properties is discussed in terms of film crystallinity, which is subjected to the dopants’ radius. Small

amount of In dopants with large radius may introduce localized regions in the host film, affecting

thermoelectric properties. The point defects are (

), (

) and

(

) in the undoped ZnO, GZO and IGZO thin films, respectively. Local

compressive strain is developed around the Ga and In ions due to its 3+ charge. As discussed in the above

part relating to the electrical properties, we suggest that random distribution of Ga and In dopant in the

ZnO lattice structures induced these above point defects as localization regions affecting the total thermal

conductivity.

Keywords: crystalline IGZO thin film, dual doping, Seebeck coefficient, thermal conductivity, localized

states.
