In all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs), (electro)chemo-mechanical aspects such as uneven interfaces, cathode-electrolyte interphase formation, delamination, fracture, defects, etc., are the major factors in capacity fade but remain largely unknown.
Nonhomogeneous transfer of lithium ions can cause significant variations in strain and stress within battery electrodes, leading to degradation in battery performance. In all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs), the lithium pathway and the associated strain/stress field become more intricate due to the (electro)chemo-mechanical reaction at the electrode-electrolyte interfaces. The dynamic volume change in active particles are heavily influencing by strength of the solid electrolyte and interfacial conformality. This can continually alter the lithium pathway and the internal stress field, leading to recurrent redefinitions of (electro)chemo-mechanical environment.
Here, we have developed an operando coherent X-ray imaging platform and associated analysis methodologies. This technology can track the nanoscale transport of lithium and the strain evolution of individual electrode particles in ASSBs. With this platform, we gained a comprehensive electrochemical and mechanical understanding of the cycling properties of single electrode particles in ASSBs.
nanoGe is a prestigious brand of successful science conferences that are developed along the year in different areas of the world since 2009. Our worldwide conferences cover cutting-edge materials topics like perovskite solar cells, photovoltaics, optoelectronics, solar fuel conversion, surface science, catalysis and two-dimensional materials, among many others.
Previously nanoGe Spring Meeting (NSM) and nanoGe Fall Meeting (NFM), MATSUS is a multiple symposia conference focused on a broad set of topics of advanced materials preparation, their fundamental properties, and their applications, in fields such as renewable energy, photovoltaics, lighting, semiconductor quantum dots, 2-D materials synthesis, charge carriers dynamics, microscopy and spectroscopy semiconductors fundamentals, etc.
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics (HOPV) is celebrated yearly in May. The main topics are the development, function and modeling of materials and devices for hybrid and organic solar cells. The field is now dominated by perovskite solar cells but also other hybrid technologies, as organic solar cells, quantum dot solar cells, and dye-sensitized solar cells and their integration into devices for photoelectrochemical solar fuel production.
Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics
The main topics of the Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics (IPEROP) are discussed every year in Asia-Pacific for gathering the recent advances in the fields of material preparation, modeling and fabrication of perovskite and hybrid and organic materials. Photovoltaic devices are analyzed from fundamental physics and materials properties to a broad set of applications. The conference also covers the developments of perovskite optoelectronics, including light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
The International Conference on Perovskite Thin Film Photovoltaics Perovskite Photonics and Optoelectronics (NIPHO) is the best place to hear the latest developments in perovskite solar cells as well as on recent advances in the fields of perovskite light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
