Investigating Interfacial Interactions in Multivalent Battery Technologies
EMSL Project ID
50706
Abstract
The proposed research will advance fundamental knowledge about novel battery materials and address critical needs for predictive understanding of multivalent ion based energy storage systems. The work is part of Joint Center for Energy Storage Research (JCESR) – BES funded energy hub project. Specifically, this work will address critical objectives in the chemistry of multivalent ions at interfaces and in solution, advancing our team goals of controlling the dynamic and emergent processes that occur in solvent systems and at solvent-mediated interfaces to enable the development of advanced energy conversion and storage systems. The use of multi-modal, in-situ experimental tools at EMSL will dramatically increase our understanding of critical processes at the molecular level. Such knowledge will speed up the property optimization needed to reach the aggressive goal of providing improved battery energy density (up to five times higher than current technologies) at lower cost than conventional systems and on an accelerated time schedule.
