Funded Activity Summary

Microscopy characterisation for the designing of Li-based batteries. This project aims to optimise the design of all-solid-state batteries by employing state-of-the-art microscopy and atomic tomography techniques. Demand for safer rechargeable batteries with higher energy densities has been rapidly increasing. The safety issues associated with current lithium batteries become more serious with the size change (small for portable electronics and large for vehicles) because of the difficulty in handling of flammable organic liquid electrolytes. The scientific knowledge and engineering understanding acquired through this project will enable the battery industry to produce higher performance solid state batteries.
