In today’s lithium batteries, those cathodes are usually made of an orderly crystalline material, sometimes in a layered structure. When slight deviations from that perfect order are introduced, the battery’s efficiency generally goes down — so disordered materials have mostly been ignored in the search for improved battery materials.

New Spectroscopic Technique developed at Berkeley Lab’s Advanced Light Source
Over the past several years, scientists have developed several ways to study the changes in a working electrode. These include techniques based on hard X-rays, electron microscopy, neutron scattering, and nuclear magnetic resonance imaging. But most of these methods track structural changes. They don’t track electron and ion dynamics directly, which is very important in …

Videnskaben er enig: Batterier er billigere og bedre end køreledninger
Videnskaben er enig: Batterier er billigere og bedre end køreledninger Dansk Batteriselskab inviterede den 22. august til debat på DTU Risø Campus om indføring af batteritog i Danmark i stedet for, som regeringen har lagt op til, at bruge 8,7 mia. kroner på at elektrificere tognettet. En opsigtsvækkende rapport fra bl.a. DONG Energy viste i …

Metal borohydrides as solid-state electrolytes
Storage of renewable energy is essential in order to create a new sustainable energy economy e.g. directly as electricity in a Li-battery or indirectly as hydrogen in a solid state metal hydride.1 Batteries are rechargeable but have moderate life time and limited energy storage capacity. Metal borohydrides can store considerable amounts of energy as hydrogen …

Procrystal analysis for easy visualization of Li pathways
The search for novel crystalline materials for use as electrodes in battery materials is a lengthy and costly process. There is a great need for a fast evaluation tool to supplement already existing experimental and theoretical methods. In this talk, the procrystal analysis is introduced as a fast technique for pointing out promising candidates for …
