Biography（報(bào)告人簡(jiǎn)介）
?
Dr. Ji-Guang (Jason) Zhang is a Laboratory Fellow of the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory.? He is the group leader for PNNL’s efforts in energy storage for transportation applications and has 26-year experience in the development of energy storage devices, including Li-ion batteries, Li-metal batteries, Li-air batteries, Li-S batteries, and thin-film solid-state batteries.?
?
He was the co-recipient of two R&D 100 awards, holds 22 patents (with another 18 patents pending), publishes more than 250 papers in refereed journals, and named as Highly Cited Researchers-2017 in both Materials Science and Engineering categories.
Abstract （報(bào)告摘要）
Large scale deployment of electrical vehicles needs to have an energy storage system which has an energy density far exceeding those of the state of the art Li-ion batteries.?
?
In this work, our recent progresses on cathode, anode and electrolyte used in Li-Ion batteries will be reported.? We have optimized the composition of both Ni-rich NMC and electrolyte and enabled a high discharge capacity of >220 mAh g-1 (846 Wh kg-1) and maintain a capacity retention higher than 80% after 1000 cycles.? We also developed a new approach to reduce the cycling induced cracking in Ni-rich cathode materials.?
?
On the other hand, we further improved the performance of Si based anode using a hierarchical structured micrometer-size silicon (Si)/multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) composite. The unique structure of Si/MWNT composite was synthesized via a scalable self-assembly process and subsequent aluminothermic reactions.? Our recent progresses on Li-S and Li-air batteries will also be discussed.
