In this work, we present and apply schemes to determine from first-principles calculations the relevant effective parameters used in phase field theory simulations of battery compounds. In particular, we derive that a consistent free energy density can be ...
Establishing a link between atomistic processes and battery cell behavior is a major challenge for lithium ion batteries. Focusing on liquid electrolytes, we describe parameter-free molecular dynamics predictions of their mass and charge transport properti ...
Lithium-ion batteries provide the power for portable electronics and found many other interesting applications. It is desirable to design batteries with high energy density and long cycle life. Silicon is among the highest Li-storing anode materials in bat ...
Corrosion of carbon-based electrodes and bipolar plates is a major hurdle and can be a cause of failure in commercial vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs). Carbon corrosion was found to occur in a commercial VRFB (10 kW/40 kWh), whereby cracks through bip ...
Aqueous Zn-ion batteries, which are being proposed as large-scale energy storage solutions because of their unparalleled safety and cost advantage, are composed of a positive host (cathode) material, a metallic zinc anode, and a mildly acidic aqueous elect ...
The discovery of enhanced electrochemical stability for aqueous electrolytes with very high salt concentration has stimulated the development of high-voltage aqueous batteries. We show that a key factor limiting the applicability of these batteries is the ...
The novel compound Na2-x(CB11H12)(x)(B12H12)(1-x) shows a fast ionic Na conductivity of 2 mS cm(-1) at room temperature, reaching the superionic regime above 333 K. A low activation energy of 314 meV, in a thermodynamically and electrochemically stable str ...
As part of the engineering validation and engineering design activities (EVEDA) phase for the international fusion materials irradiation facility IFMIF, major elements of a lithium target facility and the test facility were designed, prototyped and validat ...
Sodium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide based aqueous electrolytes exhibit a wide electrochemical stability window of up to 2.6 V when the water-to-salt molar ratio falls below 2:1, enabling the fabrication of high-voltage rechargeable aqueous sodium-ion batteries ...
Continuum electrolyte models represent a practical tool to account for the presence of the diffuse layer at electrochemical interfaces. However, despite the increasing popularity of these in the field of materials science, it remains unclear which features ...
