Sodium-ion battery research Swansea University in United Kingdom

Lancaster University’s Chemistry Department is advertising a fully funded PhD studentship supervised by Prof John Griffin and Dr Xiao Hua . The project is part of the Faraday Institution PhD Training Programme and focuses on local structure and ion ordering in high-performance materials for lithium-ion batteries . The research centres on disordered rocksalts (DRXs) as next-generation cathode materials. DRXs have crystalline structures but lack long-range ordering of lithium and transition metal ...

Postdoctoral Research Associate opportunity at the University of Cambridge in the Department of Chemistry , working with Prof. Alexander Forse on solid-state NMR and materials chemistry for the energy transition . The project is part of an ERC Starting Grant funded by UKRI and focuses on understanding and improving supercapacitor devices for energy storage. The research uses solid-state NMR spectroscopy to gain structural insights into electrode materials and energy storage mechanisms in porous ...

Lancaster University’s Chemistry Department is advertising a fully funded PhD studentship in chemistry , materials science , and battery science . The project is supervised by Dr Michael Mercer and Prof Abbie Trewin and is part of the Faraday Institution PhD Training Programme . The research focuses on exploiting recent developments in Organically Synthesized Porous Carbon (OSPC) developed by Gavion Ltd. The project will investigate how OSPC performs compared with standard graphite anodes in lit...

PhD Studentship at the University of Warwick (WMG) in lithium-ion batteries , with a focus on lithium plating diagnostics , X-ray diffraction , neutron scattering , and small-angle scattering . This project addresses one of the most dangerous failure mechanisms in lithium-ion batteries: metallic lithium plating under aggressive cycling conditions. The successful candidate will develop a quantitative, non-destructive, in-situ diagnostic methodology to distinguish lithium plating from normal inter...

PhD opportunity in next-generation redox flow batteries at Queen Mary University of London. This fully funded 4-year studentship is based in the QMUL School of Engineering and Materials Science and the QMUL Centre for Sustainable Engineering, working on Advancing Redox-Targeting Flow Batteries with Solid Boosters for Breakthrough Energy Density . The project sits at the intersection of electrochemistry , energy materials , materials science , and advanced spectroscopy . The research aims to tran...
