Details

The quest for efficient energy storage solutions has driven extensive research into novel materials with exceptional properties. Borophene, a two-dimensional (2D) material composed of boron atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice, has emerged as a promising candidate for energy storage applications [1]. Its unique structural and electronic properties, such as high surface area, tuneable bandgap, and excellent mechanical strength, make borophene an attractive material for various energy storage devices, including batteries, supercapaGltors, and fuel cells [2]. This seminar shall discuss borophene's potential in energy storage. The discussion will encompass the synthesis methods of borophene, its structural characteristics, and its electrochemical performance in energy storage devices. Furthermore, the challenges and opportunities associated with integrating borophene into practical energy storage systems will be explored [3]. By understanding the fundamental properties and technological advancements of borophene, researchers and engineers can harness its potential to develop next-generation energy storage technologies with enhanced performance, durability, and sustainability.
