A nanomachined and micromachined electrode () is disclosed that is produced by providing a layer of aluminum () positioned upon a conductive substrate (), anodizing the layer of aluminum to produce a layer of aluminum oxide () having an array of pores (), depositing a sacrificial metal () within the pores of the aluminum oxide layer, etching the aluminum oxide layer so as to leave an array of sacrificial metal rods (), depositing a layer of electrode material () between the array of sacrificial metal rods, and etching the sacrificial metal rods so that a layer of copper remains having an array of pores () where the sacrificial metal rods had existed. The layer of copper is the electrode ().

Nanomachined and micromachined electrodes for electrochemical devices

A method of producing a layer of lithiated material is provided wherein a mixture of Li(acac) and Co (acac) is dissolved in an aqueous solvent to produce a solution. The solution is deposited upon a substrate by atomizing the solution, passing the atomized solution into a heated gas stream so as to vaporize the solution, and directing the vaporized solution onto a substrate.

Method and apparatus for producing lithium based cathodes

An apparatus for extracting plasticizer from polymer structures includes, in one embodiment, a evacuation chamber, a heat source and a cooling chamber are all coupled to a conduit having a motorized fan for cycling gases through the components. The plasticizer is evaporated within the evacuation chamber by the heat source and entrained in a gaseous stream passing through the evacuation chamber. The plasticizer enriched gases are then passed through the cooling chamber wherein the plasticizer is condensed prior to being cycled back to the evacuation chamber. A gas heater aid in maintaining a constant gas flow temperature within the evacuation chamber.
