PNNL battery researcher Jie Xiao collaborates with academic and industry partners to address scientific challenges in manufacturing lithium-based batteries.
PNNL welcomes new joint appointments to expand the research productivity and scientific impact of both PNNL and the university partners, broadening the base of expertise at each institution and helping to build interdisciplinary teams.
PNNL researchers design liquid-based porous electrolyte that could transport lithium ions more easily between electrodes, improving battery efficiency.
The work by the team at PNNL takes a critical step in leveraging ML to accelerate advanced manufacturing R&D, specifically for manufacturing techniques without access to efficient, first-principles simulations.
Scientists are pioneering approaches in the branch of artificial intelligence known as machine learning to design and train computer software programs that guide the development of new manufacturing processes.
A new longer-lasting sodium-ion battery design is much more durable and reliable in lab tests. After 300 charging cycles, it retained 90 percent of its charging capacity.
PNNL's Tegan Emerson was invited to be one of two plenary speakers at the inaugural AIM 2022 congress. The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society organized AIM 2022 to connect materials and manufacturing researchers from around the world.
A paper published last year by scientists at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory was featured in the 2021 Editor’s Choice collection for the Cell Reports Physical Science journal.
