Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Active sites of non-Pt group oxygen reduction reaction catalysts for polymer electrolyte fuel cell were studied by space-resolved X-ray spectroscopy. Scanning transmission x-ray microscopy of the non-Pt cathode catalysts with different particle sizes showed that the non-Pt cathod catalyst with a smaller particle size formed a fine three-phase boundary. Cathode active materials for sodium-ion batteries, which have larger particle sizes were also studied. The effects of element substitution and redox reactions on electronic states of layered oxides and metal-hexacyanoferrates for sodium-ion battery cathodes were revealed by X-ray spectroscopy.
