Recent interest in lithium-ion batteries for electric and hybrid vehicles, satellite, defense, and military applications has increased the demand on the computational efficiency of lithium-ion battery models. This paper presents an effective approach to simulate physics based lithium-ion battery models in real-time milliseconds for simulation and control in hybrid environments. The battery mode...

We report direct visualization of electrochemical lithiation and delithiation of Au anodes in a commercial LiPF6/EC/DEC electrolyte for lithium ion batteries using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The inhomogeneous lithiation, lithium metal dendritic growth, electrolyte decomposition, and solid-electrolyte interface (SEI) formation are observed in situ. These results shed lights on strat...

spherical granules of the superionic conductor β/β́ lizr2(po4)3 in the range of sub 100 nm sizewere synthesizedvia freeze drying methodand fully reviewed in all aspects. samples were characterized by the x-ray diffractometry (xrd), the thermal analysis (tg, dsc), thefourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (ftir) and the scanning electron microscopy (sem).their structuredepends largely on the me...

A molecular-level understanding of why the addition of lithium salts to Organic Ionic Plastic Crystals (OIPCs) produces excellent ionic conductivity is described for the first time. These materials are promising electrolytes for safe, robust lithium batteries, and have been experimentally characterised in some detail. Here, molecular dynamics simulations demonstrate the effects of lithium ion d...

The electrochemical properties of a composite solid polymer electrolyte, consisting of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO)-lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) and tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether (TEGDME) was examined as a protective layer between lithium metal and a water-stable lithium ion-conducting glass ceramic of Li1+x+y(Ti,Ge)2-xAlxP3-ySiyO12 (LTAP). The lithium ion conductivit...

objective: the lithium concentration in the plasma is assumed to give someindication as to the concentration of this ion in different organ cells especially incentral nervous system. while the practical value of intracellular lithium measurement is controversial however, erythrocytes have proved to be useful for studying lithium concentration and its transport across the membrane. there are som...

This paper describes the fabrication of novel modified polyethylene (PE) membranes using plasma technology to create high-performance and cost-effective separator membranes for practical applications in lithium-ion polymer batteries. The modified PE membrane via plasma modification process plays a critical role in improving wettability and electrolyte retention, interfacial adhesion between sep...

BACKGROUND Advance Technology Development (ATD) Program is a new program put forth by Department of Energy to develop high power lithium ion batteries for hybrid electric vehicles and electric vehicles. It is a joint effort of five national labs and LBNL is the lead lab in investigating SEI (solid electrolyte interface) layer formation and dissolution. Our group is responsible for the character...
