Silicon-based lithium-ion batteries exhibit severe time-based degradation resulting in poor calendar lives. In this webinar, we will talk about how calendar aging is measured, why the traditional measurement approaches are time intensive and there is a need for new approaches to optimize materials for next generation silicon based systems. Using this new approach we also screen multiple new electrolyte systems that can lead to calendar life improvements in Si containing batteries.
An interactive Q&A session follows the presentation.
“Ankit Verma”Ankit Verma’s expertise is in physics-based and data-driven modeling of lithium-ion and next generation lithium metal batteries. His interests lie in unraveling the coupled reaction-transport-mechanics behavior in these electrochemical systems with experiment-driven validation to provide predictive insights for practical advancements. Predominantly, he’s working on improving silicon anodes energy density and calendar life as part of the Silicon Consortium Project, understanding solid-state battery limitations and upcycling of end-of-life electrodes as part of the ReCell Center.
Verma’s past works include optimization of lithium-ion battery anodes and cathodes for high-power and fast-charge applications and understanding electrodeposition stability in metal anodes.
