I'm working on MXenes for energy applications, i would like to know the possible list of materials that can and cannot be doped with MXenes (Ti3C2Tx) for energy applications.
Hypothetically, you could combine Ti3C2Tx with almost any material, but you can read my review for some insight into what has been done so far:
Article MXene‐Based Anodes for Metal‐Ion Batteries
The two main things I would consider are:
1) Ti3C2Tx has an overall negative surface charge, so positively charged materials generally mix with it quite easily.
2) Ti3C2Tx has excellent rate performance and cycling capability in metal-ion batteries, but the capacity is not that great. Therefore, you should combine it with materials which have a high capacity but cannot be cycled many times.
Thank you Michael Greaves for your valuable comment. How do you see Ti3C2Tx as a viable option as a counter electrode for solar cell applications. Could you comment a few lines on this.
You're welcome, Lokesh Murali !
Unfortunately I cannot comment on MXenes in solar cells, but you might find the papers I discuss in the MXene-silicon composites section of my review useful.
