Synthesis and characterization of MXene based electrodes for energy storage. KU Leuven
Mn+1AXn MAX phase ceramics are a class of nanolaminated solids comprising early transition metals (M), A-group elements (A) and carbon/nitrogen (X). Exhibiting highly unusual metallic and ceramic properties alike, their layered atomic stacking allows for exfoliation via selective etching and subsequent delamination. The forthcoming 2D-materials are known as MXenes and benefit from a large surface area, metal-like conductivity, tuneable ...
