ReLiable: Reversible Lithium-Air Batteries
Project Objective:
To develop new, high-capacity, reversible Li-air batteries for use in a sustainable energy infrastructure by:
-
Designing and synthesizing novel electrode materials from an atomic-scale understanding of the fundamental reaction mechanisms.
-
Characterizing the electrode-electrolyte interfaces in situ and identifying degradation mechanisms
-
Producing, testing and optimizing Li-air cells and BMS systems.
Project Duration and Timing: 4.5 years, January 2012 to June 2016
