Energy Storage Materials Group
Energy Storage Materials Group promotes research and development on novel ceramic materials, process technologies, characterization technologies, and numerical simulation to realize next-generation energy storage devices such as all-solid-state batteries and ceramic capacitors, which are expected to be applied to mobility systems and IoT devices.
Group Research Theme
Electrolyte ceramic sheet for next generation all-solid-state batteries
To realize next generation all-solid-state batteries, we are developing and studying processes of advanced sheet forming and nanoparticle synthesis, and technologies of particle interface control at low temperature for electrode/electrolyte composites.
