Using graphene and other new nanomaterials to help, through the material structure design and preparation process optimization, to carry out the development of new materials so as to achieve the power battery range, life, and other aspects of the performance of a substantial increase in the new energy lithium battery materials research and development of the main task and vision.

By participatingin the course, students will understand academics and apply knowledge in the emerging field of new energy. This is a field that combines the intersection of physics, chemistry, materials science, electricity, and information science.

I gained a lot from XLAB. Not only did I learn about the research process, but I also personally worked in the lab to manufacture, assemble, and test batteries. Additionally, I gained insights into the advantages and disadvantages of existing lithium batteries, potential improvement solutions, and the societal significance of developing new batteries. Since lithium batteries are closely related to chemistry, my experience at XLAB will enrich my application essays for a chemistry major and be very helpful for my future studies.

XLAB has been immensely rewarding for me. Both the theoretical lectures and the hands-on laboratory experiments sparked a great deal of interest in the subject. They taught me a wealth of new knowledge in physics, electrochemistry, and materials science. Teachers were diligent and responsible, always ready to answer any questions. The final presentation developed our teamwork skills and ability to review and reflect on our results. Additionally, reading scientific literature broadened my knowledge base and made my thinking and logic more comprehensive.

We learned about carbon neutrality and peak carbon dioxide emissions, gaining an initial understanding of the future landscape of global environmental protection. Through this study, we discovered methods for capturing carbon dioxide. The experiment on capturing carbon dioxide using petroleum coke taught us practical approaches to managing CO2 emissions. This experience also helped me clarify my future direction—I am now determined to dedicate myself to working towards global environmental protection.

This experiment taught me a great deal about using laboratory equipment and underscored the importance of lab safety. Scientific research is a severe and meticulous endeavor; it cannot be taken lightly. Collaboration with peers allows for the pooling of ideas, which is crucial. Notably, wearing triple-layer gloves ensures that reagents remain uncontaminated during the final assembly in the glove box. Every step demands thoroughness and complete focus. This experience immersed me in scientific research's essence and gave me a new understanding of my future professional pursuits.
