Development of Novel Solid-State and Hybrid Ionic Conductors and Electrolytes

Due: May 1, 2025

$99,200

Description

We are interested in the development of new, non-flammable, and highly active ionic conductors for use in rechargeable batteries and fuel cells. Devices that are currently commercially available are limited by the physical properties of state-of-the-art materials used. The operational range and flammability of lithium-ion batteries leave much room for improvement. We are soliciting proposals for the design, synthesis, and testing of new types of ionic conductors that have high performance without the drawbacks of currently availa...

Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
