Batteries
Materials principles and characterization methodsThis research and reference text provides an introduction
to battery fundamentals, exploring some of the state-of-the-art
characterisation methods currently employed by the energy storage
community. Covering the essential
electrochemistry, impedance spectroscopy, solid state chemistry,
electrochemical engineering, materials sciences and in-situ characterization methods
for batteries, the text acquaints non-battery researchers with the field, and
provides a comprehensive reference for specialists in sub-fields of battery
research. With a focus on Li-ion batteries, contextualised against a discussion
of newer, disruptive technologies such as Li-air and Mg-ion batteries, the text
is ideal for researchers and students interested in the materials and
characterization methods for batteries, including those without a background in
electro- or solid-state chemistry.Key Features:
Provides a comprehensive introduction
to battery research, including fundamental materials principles and
characterisation methodsSuitable for non-specialists without
a background in electro- or solid-state chemistry, as well as those that
specialise in a sub-field of batteries researchCovers established topics as well as
cutting-edge research
