Learn About The Future Of Battery Research
Using Advanced Microscopy Workflows
Lithium-ion batteries have revolutionized how the materials researchers' community thinks about electric energy storage across many sectors and have enabled the rapid growth of entirely new technologies and sectors – from electric vehicles to mobile electronics, personal mobility, grid-level electricity storage, and more.
Battery performance, however, must continue to improve in order to enable a shift away from fossil fuels and into a clean energy future. But pushing performance beyond the state of the art will require new architectures, new materials, and a detailed understanding of how these things work together.
In this webinar you will learn how advanced microscopy workflows utilizing recently developed instruments and capabilities allow researchers to see microstructural and chemical details inside batteries with unprecedented clarity and precision.
