Solid-State Battery Interface Design (SS-BID)

该研究项目旨在使用世界上性能最好的固态离子导体开发下一代固态电池。富含硼的电解质将与锂金属阳极配对，以构建能量密度更高，更安全，具有更宽的操作温度窗口的电池，并旨在降低成本。这些电池目前的障碍在于阳极、电解质和阴极之间的界面性能差。该研究旨在开发新的策略来克服这些障碍，并执行世界一流的测量技术，以了解和优化固态电池，从而提供商业上可行的储能解决方案。

This research project aims to use the world’s best performing solid-state ion conductors to develop next generation solid-state batteries. Boron-rich electrolytes will be paired with lithium metal anodes to construct batteries that are more energy dense, safer, have wider operational temperature windows, and aim to be lower cost than existing Li-ion batteries. The current roadblock for these batteries lies in the poorly performing interfaces between anode, electrolyte and cathode. This research aims to develop new strategies to overcome these barriers and perform world-class measurement techniques to understand and optimise solid-state batteries to provide a commercially viable energy storage solution.
