Outline of Final Research Achievements |
New methods were developed to synthesize LDH nanosheets based on 3d transition metals (Fe, Co, Ni, etc.) with highly controlled coordination environment, valence state and layer number. In addition to successfully elucidating the two-dimensional anisotropic ion conduction mechanism in single-layer nanosheets, structural design and fabrication process such as incorporating LDH nanoparticles were invented for preparing ion conduction membranes with both high in-plane and cross-plane conductivity. Moreover, by hybridizing LDH nanosheets with electrically conductive nanomaterials (Ag nanoparticles, graphene, RuO2.1 nanosheets, etc.), we have succeeded in creating efficient electrocatalysts in both oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The high performance was derived from the high degree control on metal composition, coordination environment and oxidation state, as well as hetero-interface coupling effect.
