Physics-Informed Design of Hybrid Pulse Power Characterization Tests for Rechargeable Batteries by Zhuang, Debbie, Li, Michael L, Lam, Vivek N, Braatz, Richard D, Chueh, William C, Bazant, Martin Z

“…We demonstrate our approach of physics-informed HPPC on simulated Li-ion batteries with nickel-rich cathodes and graphite anodes. Multivariable optimization by physics-informed HPPC rapidly determines kinetic parameters that correlate with degradation phenomena at the anode, such as solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) growth and lithium plating, as well as at the cathode, such as oxidation-induced cation disorder. …”

Self-assembled Cu-Ni bimetal oxide 3D in-plane epitaxial structures for highly efficient oxygen evolution reaction by Li, Chaojiang, Zhang, Bowei, Li, Yong, Hao, Shiji, Cao, Xun, Yang, Guang, Wu, Junsheng, Huang, Yizhong

“…To improve the catalytic activity of copper based electrode for oxygen evolution reaction (OER), double cathodes liquid plasma discharge (DC-LPD) method was developed to fabricate three-dimensional (3D) nest-like structures electrode on the nickel foam (NF). The CuO-NiO/NF electrode obtained through annealing the in-plane epitaxial Cu(OH)2-Ni2O3H/NF in the oven, exhibits excellent electrocatalytic activities for the oxygen evolution reaction at a low overpotential of 319 mV to achieve a current density of 10 mA/cm2. …”

The new "rare metal age" : new challenges and implications of critical raw materials supply security in the 21st century by Umbach, Frank

“…The global race for the most advanced technologies dependent on CRMs has intensified the competition for access to as well as strategic control of REEs, lithium, cobalt, copper, nickel and other CRMs. This working paper analyses the global supply and demand balance of three CRMs (REEs, lithium and cobalt, the latter two being major raw materials for batteries) in the foreseeable future and whether ASEAN countries can play a role as producers and suppliers of CRMs. …”
