Li-ion batteries have enabled tremendous breakthrough in applications but the need for advanced battery electrodes that can deliver high capacity and power continues to drive battery producer R&D efforts. The PI and his team have developed a low-cost, high-throughput self-assembly process to create diverse well-organized nanoparticle structures in the electrodes with electric field. In the fabrication of electrodes, the PI's research has demonstrated advanced battery electrodes with enhanced rate capability, high energy density, long cycling life, and reduced cost.The technique proposed in this project will produce high performance batteries needed by electric vehicle and other applications, which will benefit the society by addressing global energy and environmental challenges. Translating the technique to commercial applications will not only create new jobs and contribute to the economy, but will also increase the US competence in the important area of Li-battery manufacturing.

锂离子电池在应用中取得了巨大的突破，但对能够提供高容量和功率的先进电池电极的需求继续推动电池生产商的研发工作。PI和他的团队开发了一种低成本，高通量的自组装过程，可以在电场的电极中创建各种组织良好的纳米颗粒结构。在电极的制造方面，PI的研究已经证明了先进的电池电极具有增强的倍率性能，高能量密度，长循环寿命和降低成本。该项目提出的技术将生产电动汽车和其他应用所需的高性能电池，这将有利于解决全球能源和环境挑战的社会。 将该技术转化为商业应用不仅将创造新的就业机会并为经济做出贡献，还将提高美国在锂电池制造这一重要领域的竞争力。
