Division/Committee: [ENFL: Division of Energy and Fuels]

This symposium will focus on the frontiers of the high-energy density batteries. Material innovation stands as the linchpin in the pursuit of next-generation high-energy batteries, offering the promise of revolutionizing energy storage with enhanced performance, safety, and sustainability. The symposium will encompass a diverse range of topics, including but not limiting to: i. Recent breakthroughs in cathode materials, such as high nickel oxides, layered lithium-rich manganese-based oxides, and sulfur-based cathodes. ii. Advancements in lithium metal stabilization, encompassing lithium fabrication techniques, innovative electrolyte formulations, and the application of artificial protection coatings. iii. Exploration of novel solid electrolyte materials, spanning oxides, sulfides, polymers, composites, and their compatibility with next-generation cathodes and anodes. iv. Discussion on the scalability of these technologies, their environmental footprint, and their pivotal role in shaping the future landscape of energy storage.
