Abstract

The price of cobalt, a key element within lithium-ion batteries (LIB) for stability, has nearly tripled over the past few years due to increased demand from the cell phone industry, a current materials shortage, and speculation for a future global shortage. Given the increase in cost and the future outlook, lithium-ion battery (LIB) research focused on the reduction or the elimination of cobalt within a LIB is essential for reducing the cost and assuring the supply of lithium-ion batteries. This talk will report on the development a novel three-dimensional (3D) doping approach that is poised to resolve some longstanding challenges in fundamental doping effects on high-Ni Co-free battery materials as well as to reduce the cost and improve the safety, energy density, and lifetime of LIBs.
