Description

Critical Material Design Enabling Long-life Next Generation Batteries . Australia is at the forefront of raw materials extraction globally and there is enormous potential to capitalise on the battery value chain. This fellowship, in collaboration with two industry partners aims to develop high-performing battery materials capable of powering electric vehicles with enhanced range and lifetime. This research will drive a step-change by designing new robust single-crystal microstructures to tackle the cycling stability challenges hindering the state-of-the-art lithium metal oxide cathode materials. The program will support local industry partners to move up the battery value chain and position Australia as the global leading battery market supplier while also reducing environmental impact from battery waste.. Scheme: Industry Laureate Fellowships. Field: 4016 - Materials Engineering. Lead: Prof Lianzhou Wang
