報告摘要：Nanotechnology fabrication has become a popular field in the development of advanced and cutting-edge technologies. Deposition processes are industrialized to achieve nano-thin films that are accompanied by some exceptional attributes to meet the requirements for the manufacture of components with desired durability, efficiency and performance. The industry, however, is in constant pursuit to optimize and make the Nano-manufacturing process economically prudent. The research endeavour within nanotechnology fabrication and the implications of smart factories are studied by the collaboration of Prof. T. C. Jen and his team of researchers. The team continually fathom and strives to refine the knowledge of the Nano-fabrication processes and the incorporation of advanced manufacturing techniques into the realization of smart factories. This keynote reports on the current findings of numerous research endeavours. This includes an in-depth study of atomic layer depositions (ALD) and their unique behaviours and optimization requirements towards their operations and dependency on geometrical designs. These approaches utilize numerical methods, such as computational fluid dynamics, lattice Boltzmann, density function theory, and molecular dynamics to describe the Nano-precision attributes of the film products during the fabrication process.

Batteries, supercapacitors, and hydrogen storage are just a few examples of energy storage technologies that have been effective in reducing the use of fossil fuels, addressing environmental concerns, and facilitating the growth of the electric vehicle industry. To achieve the highest efficiency for the various energy-related devices, the manufacturing and interface/surface engineering of electrode materials with optimized architectures is essential. Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is an effective coating technique for the fabrication of high-quality and uniform thin films and precise material growths at the nanometre scale. This keynote focused on the recent advancements and future prospects of ALD in energy storage systems. The overview outlined the fundamentals of the ALD process, and features and highlights a brief survey on the current status of ALD. The potential of ALD in designing and fabricating active components of batteries including cathodes, anodes, solid-state electrolytes, 2D materials for hydrogen storage, and other novel compounds for energy storage applications is highlighted. A further capability of ALD in tailoring the electronic and morphology of battery compounds and engineering the interface layers to enhance their performance including energy capacity, cycling, safety, lifetime and were discussed.

The challenges faced in device optimization, including improving the efficiency, stability, and scalability of the devices are also discussed. The prospects of ALD in thin film batteries, including the development of new materials and the integration of ALD with other techniques are also discussed. This keynote is of interest to researchers and professionals working in the fields of Li batteries, thin film fabrication, and device design.
