James Batteas
• Surface Science • Nanoscale Materials • Nanotribology • Biological Surfaces and Interfaces The research in Dr. Batteas' group is organized around three main projects. These include: 1) nanoscale materials and devices, 2) nanotribology, and 3) biological surfaces and interfaces. The general theme of the work in his group is the development of custom engineered surfaces and interfaces. Much of this work involves the development of a fundamental (molecular level) understanding of the underlying chemistry and physics of the systems in question to afford rational approaches for improving current and developing new technologies.

UCLA Team Develops Graphene-Based SupercapacitorResearchers at University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) have developed a supercapacitor or electrochemical capacitor (EC) composed of an expanded network of graphene — a one-atom-thick layer of graphitic carbon. The team demonstrated excellent mechanical and electrical properties as well as exceptionally high surface area.
