Mechanism Study of Superfast (De)lithiation Process of Conversion Materials — NSF Award to Purdue University (IN, $396,048)

Fast-charging battery materials are needed to solve the bottleneck of long charging times in electric vehicles, which help reduce CO2 emissions. The transportation sector is the largest contributor to CO2 emissions in the U.S. However, most lithium-ion battery cathode materials are not capable of super-fast charging, w

AbstractFast-charging battery materials are needed to solve the bottleneck of long charging times in electric vehicles, which help reduce CO2 emissions. The transportation sector is the largest contributor to CO2 emissions in the U.S. However, most lithium-ion battery cathode materials are not capable of super-fast charging, which is a long-standing challenge for energy storage. This project will use a combination of experiments and computational simulations to improve understanding of metal ion transpo
