Book description
A one-stop resource for both researchers and development engineers,
this comprehensive handbook serves as a daily reference, replacing heaps
of individual papers.
This second edition features twenty percent more content with new
chapters on battery characterization, process technology, failure
mechanisms and method development, plus updated information on classic
batteries as well as entirely new results on advanced approaches.
The authors, from such leading institutions as the US National Labs and
from companies such as Panasonic and Sanyo, present a balanced view on
battery research and large-scale applications. They follow a distinctly
materials-oriented route through the entire field of battery research,
thus allowing readers to quickly find the information on the particular
materials system relevant to their research.
Dr. Claus Daniel
is a research staff member at Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Materials
Science and Technology Division, USA, and holds an adjunct faculty
position at University of Tennessee's Department of Materials Science
and Engineering. His current research focuses on the surface science,
processing and advancement of materials for energy storage devices.
Claus Daniel is recipient of a number of R&D awards including the
Carl-Eduard-Schulte-Prize, the Dr. Eduard Martin Award, and the Werner
Köster Prize.
