Patents by Inventor Paige L. Johnson

Paige L. Johnson has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • SURFACE-FUNCTIONALIZED, ACIDIFIED METAL OXIDE MATERIAL IN AN ACIDIFIED ELECTROLYTE SYSTEM OR AN ACIDIFIED ELECTRODE SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20180138506
    Abstract: Described herein are acidified metal oxide (“AMO”) materials useful in applications such as a battery electrode or photovoltaic component, in which the AMO material is used in conjunction with one or more acidic species. Advantageously, batteries constructed of AMO materials and incorporating acidic species, such as in the electrode or electrolyte components of the battery exhibit improved capacity as compared to a corresponding battery lacking the acidic species.

  • SYNTHESIZED, SURFACE-FUNCTIONALIZED, ACIDIFIED METAL OXIDE MATERIALS FOR ENERGY STORAGE, CATALYTIC, PHOTOVOLTAIC AND SENSOR APPLICATIONS
    Publication number: 20180034049
    Abstract: An acidified metal oxide (“AMO”) material, preferably in monodisperse nanoparticulate form 20 nm or less in size, having a pH<7 when suspended in a 5 wt % aqueous solution and a Hammett function H0>?12, at least on its surface. The AMO material is useful in applications such as a battery electrode, catalyst, or photovoltaic component.
