Battery Materials for Sustainability
Scope
There is a pressing need to use renewable energy (solar, wind, geothermal) as well as to provide efficient storage and supply of mobile energy to enable the battery application of consumer electronics to longer-range commuter electric vehicles, where “abundance” is an important keyword in materials development, because materials themselves function as a storage host and the amount of materials is directly linked to the amount of energy stored in the device. Materials development is in worldwide competition together with rapid development of advanced spectroscopy, theoretical calculations, and optionally informatics or machine learning. The purpose on this session is to accelerate the synergetic studies by multidisciplinary concept, and to provide active environment to share and discuss the present status and future perspectives of lithium-, sodium-, potassium- batteries, as well as on new battery concepts. Contributions by combined approaches of theory and experiment are particularly welcome. The session will consist of invited lectures and poster presentations. The topics in the session include but not limited to (1) new electrode materials, (2) new electrolyte materials, (3) electrode-electrolyte interface, (4) advanced spectroscopy, (5) theory and modeling, and (6) new battery concepts.
