Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The usability and maintainability of IoT devices will be dramatically improved, if electronic devices can be charged without electricity. In this research, aiming at the realization of photo-rechargeable secondary battery without an external power source, we have developed a cathode material that has a charging function by light, and the ultimate goal is to manufacture a battery that can be charged by light. As a result, (1) for the aqueous solution of the positive electrode active material, high-efficiency photo-oxidation conditions were determined by adjusting the pH and removing the charge. (2) It was clarified by synchrotron radiation X-ray absorption experiments that the redox reaction occurs by the formation and scission of disulfide bonds, and it was confirmed by ultraviolet spectroscopic experiments that the photo-oxidation reaction occurred. (3) It was clarified that light irradiation enhance the voltage boost rate.
