New research conducted by scientists from the University of Science and Technology of China suggests that the surface of electrodes can be modified to optimize their electrochemical properties. The research was focused on the effect of oxygen-containing species on the surface of the electrodes. The team found that by introducing oxygen-containing species onto the electrode surface, the electrochemical performance of the electrode can be improved. This could lead to more efficient energy conversion processes and improved battery performance. With further research, this could potentially have a major impact on the development of new energy storage technologies.
