very happy to share our new study! here, we demonstrate that the proximity of electrolyte species to a reducing electrode like lithium influences their likelihood of becoming incorporated in the SEI.

Simple methods often provide crucial insights into complex problems.

In our new work, we use simple machine learning methods to identify one crucial driver of a complex performance metric, Coulombic Efficiency, in lithium metal batteries. Subsequently, w…https://t.co/a9blFhPdTS

Fast charging is tough for Li metal batteries ("dendrites"), so we asked how does the Li plating mechanism change with slow and fast charging?

In @NanoLetters today, we mapped out Li plating mechanisms to help with future design of fast charge solutions.

Cool paper from @mun_sek Kim. He shows that solid additives can further improve the efficiency of the best electrolytes available. Getting closer to 99.9x% efficiency
