PEI Faculty Seminar: “Power from Weakness: Enhancing Lithium-Ion Performance Through Piezoelectrochemical Stress”

 

Craig Arnold, the Susan Dod Brown Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and director of the Princeton Institute for the Science and Technology of Materials (PRISM), presented “Power from Weakness: Enhancing Lithium-Ion Performance Through Piezoelectrochemical Stress” at 12:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 5, in Guyot Hall, Room 10.

Because of their high energy densities and working voltages, lithium-ion batteries are the most suitable energy-storage choice for a variety of applications, from electric vehicles to implantable medical devices. Arnold discussed how the mechanical and electrochemical stresses that lead to battery degradation can be taken advantage of to control and optimize lithium-ion battery performance.

Arnold was the third speaker in the Fall 2019 PEI Faculty Seminar Series, which is free and open to the public.
