Electrode materials and electrolytes for aluminium-ion accumulators

This bachelor thesis presents a topic of aluminum-ion batteries, which have recently attracted great attention owing to their good electrochemical performance and possible use in commercially produced electronics. The paper introduces the basic principles of the function of aluminum-ion accumulators and their advantages, which are a main motivation for further research. The main feature of the theoretical part is an overview of the current state of research on suitable electrode materials and electrolytes for this type of accumulators. The experimental part is focused on the preparation of several carbon-based cathode materials, preparation of the IL-type electrolyte and subsequent cell assembly. The obtained results are evaluated and briefly discussed, taking into account the effects of the cell components and other factors
