  • Publication number: 20230084039
    Abstract: Disclosed are a transparent electrode for a solar cell and a method of manufacturing the same. The transparent electrode for a solar cell has a low Young's modulus, excellent elasticity, self-healing properties, an average visible-light transmittance sufficient to implement bifacial properties, and excellent power conversion efficiency (PCE). In addition, the method of manufacturing the transparent electrode for a solar cell does not require an additional deposition process, so the electrode-manufacturing time can be reduced, and the electrode-manufacturing process can be performed separately from other solar-cell-manufacturing processes, which is advantageous for mass production and large-area application.

    Abstract: Disclosed are a method of manufacturing a composite anode for a lithium ion battery and a composite anode for a lithium ion battery manufactured thereby. According to the method provide herein, since a metal catalyst precursor is reduced using Joule heating to obtain a carbon-metal catalyst composite layer, composite anode for a lithium ion battery having a large area in a short period of time can be provided, which is excellent in terms of economic feasibility. Further, since it is possible to manufacture a composite anode for a lithium ion battery with the improved lithium electrodeposition density and reversibility of lithium ions, a composite anode for a lithium ion battery having high capacity and improved life stability can be obtained.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a lithium air battery having a multi-layered electrolyte membrane and a method of manufacturing the same. The lithium air battery includes a first electrolyte membrane capable of obtaining high ionic conductivity on a lithium negative electrode surface while minimizing the content of polymer and positioning a second electrolyte membrane with high resistance to oxygen radicals on the air electrode. Accordingly, the multi-layered electrolyte membrane can improve an electrolyte filling characteristic and a conductive characteristic of lithium ions, suppress oxygen radicals from being carried from an air electrode, and suppress a growth of lithium dendrite to largely improve a battery lifespan.
