International Research Fellow Award: Structural and Electrochemical Properties of Layered Lithium Manganese Derivatives Having the O2 Type Oxygen Stacking

[0000429]国际研究员奖励计划使美国科学家和工程师能够到国外进行3至24个月的研究。该计划的奖励为联合研究提供了机会，并利用独特或互补的设施、专业知识和国外的实验条件。该奖项将为杨绍霍恩博士提供24个月的支持，与法国波尔多凝聚态化学研究所（ICMCB）固态离子组负责人Claude Delmas博士一起工作。该项目由美国国家科学基金会数学和物理科学理事会多学科活动办公室共同资助。本项目将研究具有O2型氧层的层状锰锂衍生物的结构和电化学性能。目的是确定和改进以O2型结构为正极的新型层状锂锰衍生物在锂可充电电池中的电化学行为。Delmas在层状化合物的插层化学方面有广泛的知识。ICMCB是世界上最大的涉及固态化学和材料科学的公共研究实验室之一。它由大约200名研究人员和支持人员提供支持，拥有最先进的固态化学和材料科学设施。

0000429Shao-HornThe International Research Fellow Awards Program enables U.S. scientists and engineers to conduct three to twenty-four months of research abroad. The program's awards provide opportunities for joint research, and the use of unique or complementary facilities, expertise and experimental conditions abroad.This award will provide Dr. Yang Shao-Horn with 24 months support to work with Dr. Claude Delmas, Head of the Solid State Ionics Group at the Institute of Condensed Matter Chemistry (ICMCB) in Bordeaux, France. This project is co-funded by NSF's Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences' Office of Multidisciplinary Activities.This project will study structural and electrochemical properties of layered lithium manganese derivatives having the O2 type oxygen stacking. The aim is to determine and improve the electrochemical behavior of novel layered lithium manganese derivatives with the O2 type structure as the positive electrode in lithium rechargeable cells.Dr. Delmas has extensive knowledge in intercalation chemistry of layered compounds. ICMCB is one of the largest public research labs in the world involved in solid state chemistry and materials science. It is supported by approximately 200 researchers and supporting staff, with state of the art facilities in solid state chemistry and materials science.
