Abstract Scope |
Technology progressions in wearable devices, portable electronics and electric vehicles have motivated a shift in Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries to accommodate rapid charge, long life, high power and energy materials with more efficient packaging. An emerging trend to address this technology shift is the use of Additive Manufacturing (AM) to rapidly fabricate batteries with customized 3D geometries on a micron to millimeter scale, changing the way we fundamentally fabricate energy storage devices today. 3D battery architectures enhance ion transport in existing battery materials, thereby increasing useable energy and power densities relative to conventional Li-ion batteries. This talk will highlight promising design and material concepts for high-performance 3D batteries from our research group, with a focus on battery inks, nanomaterial compatibility, and AM processing methods that are key components to enabling printable batteries. |
