Specifically\, in this talk we will consider ion transpor t and why it is one of the major challenges in high power operation of Li- ion batteries. When studying ion transport\, measurements must be complete d in situ\, which requires the development of new analytical methods that allow us to characterise ionic transport across scales: from the single ac tive particle\, over the electrode up to the full cell scale. Finally\, we will give an example where recycled materials offer a unique opportunity to improve electrode level performance\, in part due to improved ionic con duction.\n\nBio:\n\nSteen B. Schougaard\, is the Chair of the Chemistry De partment and Professor of Inorganic Chemistry at the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM). A native of Denmark\, he received his Ph.D. from the Un iversity of Texas at Austin\, followed by a Postdoctoral Fellowship with N obel laureate Prof. J. B. Goodenough and a staff researcher position at RI SØ Danish national laboratory\, wherefrom he was recruited to UQAM. At the UQAM\, he has developed in close collaboration with industry a research p rogram around lithium-ion batteries\, which include atomistic to mesoscale modeling\, conducting polymer based electrodes\, scanning electrochemical probes and advanced in situ characterization techniques requiring synchro tron radiation.\n\n \n DTSTART:20220125T180000Z DTEND:20220125T193000Z LOCATION:Room 10\, Maass Chemistry Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B8\ , 801 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Chemical Society Seminar: Steen Brian Schougaard - Lithium-Ion Tran sport – Why Is It So Difficult ?
