West Meeting Room 218 (Vancouver Convention Center)
This talk presents our effort to engineer interfaces in solid-state polymer-ceramic composite electrolytes of lithium-ion batteries. A Grafting agent has been utilized to strengthen the polymer-ceramic interface. Also, a Li-ion conducting buffer layer has been employed to enhance interaction between the ceramic nanofibers and the polymer matrix. In addition, dopants and oxygen vacancies in ceramics can enhance interfacial interaction.
